Toyota Australia has temporarily paused sales on the LandCruiser 70 Series GXL Wagon automatic, citing strong demand and limited production availability.
Effective July 17, 2025, the move affects only this single model and is intended to help manage customer expectations and support timely delivery of existing orders.
Toyota spokesperson, Sean Hanley, says the decision was aimed at preserving customer trust by avoiding extended delays.
“We know in the past, particularly through the COVID-19 pandemic and during the global semi-conductor supply shortage, vehicle supply challenges caused a degree of frustration with our customers,” Hanley says.
“We never want to be the cause of that frustration again… we are committed to carefully managing any supply issues to provide complete transparency for customers when issues outside our control arise.”
Hanley says Toyota is working closely with its parent company in Japan to optimise supply across the entire vehicle range.
Since the introduction of the four-cylinder LandCruiser 70 Series in late 2023, Toyota says it has seen strong demand across the line-up.
All 70 Series variants are powered by the brand’s 2.8-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel engine, with a choice of five-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmissions available across multiple configurations.
Apart from the paused GXL Wagon automatic, Toyota says it has good availability across the rest of the 70 Series range, with some variants in stock for immediate delivery or able to be delivered within two to four months.
