The Sahara ZX is a new peak-luxury trim level which sits at the very top of the new LandCruiser LC300 line-up. It’s advertised at $138,790 (MSRP). 

You could also choose the GR Sport for $1000 less, or the also-luxury flavoured Sahara for $6,600 less than the Sahara ZX.

It has a more glitzy look than the GR Sport, with bigger 20-inch wheels and a choice of black, beige or black and red leather options. Like the GR Sport, the Sahara ZX is a five seat-only proposition. It seems to be the LandCruiser to buy if you spend a lot of time around town, ironically.

Like all LC300 trim levels, the Sahara ZX is fitted with the new 227kW/700Nm 3.3-litre twin-turbo V6 diesel, with an official fuel consumption figure of 8.9L/100km.

Back when all cars burned fuel and couldn't drive themselves, Mal was curing boredom by scanning every car his parents' VB Commodore drove past. His childhood appreciation for the car world exploded during a three-year stint in the US, and serious questions were asked when he spent a good chunk of his uni career perfecting lap times at Wakefield Park. Mal got his big break scooping the VE II Commodore, before a stint at Overlander magazine and kicking off his online career with The Motor Report in its heyday. These days he's exactly the same height as Michael Schumacher and uses his powers for good at the helm of CarsGuide's editorial team. Mal proudly shuns brand allegiance and counts three young kids, an EH Holden, NA MX-5, KE20 Corolla, W116 Mercedes-Benz and the world's most versatile Toyota Echo among his personal stable. He also craves a Subaru Vortex, so get in touch if you know where to find one.
