Cosmetically it looks like an evolution of the 2016-2021 "3rd gen" 200-series.

We will have to see. It’s cheaper to start with the LC platform and modify it from there. They can take it and alter it as much as they want.
As it stands now, Toyota and Lexus do not make any large unibody SUVs (at least domestically). Sequoia still has truck frame and IRS.
Is be curious to see if the GX continues on the Prado platform a la 4Runner too. The GX seems to appeal to THOUSANDS.
Yep. Same buttons and feature set. LX screen.
Reality of it is it will have 2010 technology as Toyota appears to always be behind the 8 ball only releasing things when it’s perfected.
Those headlights 
An article with these pictures:
And, look, manual fan speed adjustment!!

The LX has manual speed adjustment.
If pics are truly the 300 then I’m not impressed on looks... the more they release the better I feel about snatching up a ‘21 200. Not like it really matters to me here in the states.
I think Toyota wanted to see what would happen if they pulled the LC for a year. Or they didn't want 200s to linger and have to blow them out with a 300 on the lot.
Please bring it to the USA Toyota! We just bought a s*** ton of them. We're sorry we kept buying used! We will support the new one!

My wife and I both drive GXs (13 and 15) because we could buy two of them for what a 16+ 200 series costs. They’re great vehicles and really the last of their kind. Outside of the Toyota family, I can’t think of another current production V8, full framed, solid rear axle suv on the market. Really want a 200 but just can’t justify what they cost for very minor improvements over the GX. Toyota is becoming just another unibody blob maker unfortunately.
Only where people who like disposable durable goods and the latest gadgets live.
Cruiser will live on everywhere else where it’s used and appreciated as intended.
Yeah that’s true. Unfortunately North America gets the shaft most of the time on the good utility vehicles. I’m always debating selling my aging 100, but there’s nothing out there I want to replace it with except a 200. I’ll probably just keep it until it becomes one with the landscape in my yard.
Could be a while. I know someone who had 450k on his, last I checked. Second owner, no major repairs ever (though he said the transmission was just beginning to slip in reverse).
Someone from the Netherlands posted their diesel 100 had 1.4M km on it (870k miles) a few years back. Apparently the transmission was the first big repair, at about 750k miles.
Maybe it'll be back...sales increased after notification. Toyota needs to scrap the Sequoia...

2021 Toyota Land Cruiser Sales Pick Up Stateside Over Imminent Discontinuation
The 2021 Toyota Land Cruiser can't be considered a commercial success at 689 sales in January 2021, but it's the best sales month in the U.S. in a decade

It’s always been my theory that the Sequoia essentially killed the Cruiser in the US. If you look at annual sales data, LC sales went off a cliff the same year the Sequoia was introduced and never recovered. I think it was 2002.Maybe it'll be back...sales increased after notification. Toyota needs to scrap the Sequoia...

For sure. Big and cheap is the American way.
Well, Sequoia is not cheaply made, nor it's exactly cheap, but let's just say average folks are value seekers, which is understandable to a large extent. More space for less $$$ = FTW.
I effing hate the Sequoia...oh well.
Take from this what you will.
