Toyota LandCruiser Sahara – A couple of weeks ago we drove a Toyota LandCruiser Sahara to Byron Bay for a wedding. The LandCruiser is, as we all know, a big 4WD that loves to travel long distances in Australia. The Sahara was once the pinnacle model but now sits under the GR Sport and Sahara ZX.

Nonetheless its well-equipped and comfortable. It also comes with seven seats which proved a bonus at the wedding. It comfortably transported the groom, his three groomsman and a driver to the wedding. They all arrived in pristine condition.

The Sahara comes with heated and ventilated front seats as well as the outer middle row seats. The third row seats are power operated as is the tailgate. For the driver there is a bright Head up display. Infotainment includes twin rear head rest screens, which seems dated these days.

Overall it’s a comfortable and relatively spacious family 4WD Wagon.

Otherwise, the Sahara has the same 3.3L Twin Turbo V6 diesel engine that has power of 227kW at 4000rpm and torque of 700Nm available from 1600-2600rpm. This drives a permanent 4WD system through a smooth 10 speed automatic transmission.

Toyota LandCruiser Sahara is priced from $133,881* plus the usual costs.
