Probably Toyota
I would bet on a Lexus
That'll be 2047
Clearly the museum needs one

Come on. I bet after hours you climb in there and push all the buttons and turn all the knobs. Maybe even make vrrroooom vrrroooom sounds.Nothing quite like seeing something you can't have 3 feet away from you.

this looks like tail gate to me:
'Taint. That lower piece is a garnish.
Don't matter anyway.....we'll never see them.

It's not. It's just a body line. Press videos have shown that it's just a typical rear hatch or lift gate, not a tailgate.

Pretty convinced it doesn't exist. That's why they're not selling them in the US. The market is that tiny for Landcruisers and stuff all 200 series were sold, why would they bring across the 300??
Hasn't it already been announced months ago they aren't going to the US? I'm not sure why this keeps getting brought up.
…Which is almost like U.S. sales of the lux 200.
It's not coming to Europe either!
So what is it - Japan, Australia, Middle East and Russia??? They went through all the trouble of developing this for that?
Africa and probably S. America.
So 4 out of 7 Continents, though Russia is considered partially in Europe (the whole Ural Mountain thing) soooo 5 out of 7.
Only the US/Canada and Antarctica won't get the 300-Series.... Womp womp

Mate what planet are you on?? They're the countries we're people actually buy Landcruisers!
US 200 series sales from wiki adds up to 19,396.
AUS 200 series sales from wiki adds up to 76,395.
2015 - 2020.
That averages out at 3232 a year in the US. A country of 328 million.
That averages out at 12,732 a year in AUS. A country of 25 million.
That's not including Australia's 70 series sales which are bigger than the 200 series again.
I'm not going to look into the Middle East sales but I bet there is s*** load sold there as well.
There is no market in the US for a Landcruiser, no one wants it. 3232 sales a year in a country of 328 million is ridiculous. Why would you go to the effort to sell and stock parts and train workers to work on a vehical that 99% of the countries population doesn't even know what it is or wants one?
This exactly. Unfortunately Americans would rather buy crossovers or electric tesla's and mustang mach E.
And the ones that do consider getting a cruiser will always act surprised when they see the price and say "I aint paying no 85k for a toyota!
Meanwhile Americans will gladly fork over 80k+ for a fully loaded suburban/tahoe, yukon, F-250, expedition etc. Americans don't deserve the LC ( I hate to say this).

Yeah im not trying to be controversial or start internet fights. But there is literally no market for the Landcruiser there and I can't understand how people are still surprised that it's not going to US.
I keep reading posts saying Toyota will change their mind but i can't see it happening and I have no idea why people keep saying that.
I could see a fully tricked out luxury Lexus version that has next to no off road cred making it there.
But a $90,000 Landcruiser no way.
