TOYOTA LC79 GXL 2.8L Automatic Customized - Australian Spec
Toyota LandCruiser 79 Series — Built Without Compromise There are pickups, and then there is the LandCruiser 79 Series — a machine engineered for those who demand absolute reliability, mechanical honesty, and unstoppable capability. At SVX Automotive, we bring you the Australian-spec LC79 — a vehicle that doesn’t follow trends, but defines what true off-road dominance looks like. Pure Mechanical Strength. Proven Everywhere. Powered by Toyota’s proven 2.8L turbo diesel engine, the LC79 delivers: 150 kW (≈201 bhp) 500 Nm of torque Paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission, this is a drivetrain built for low-end pulling power, durability, and real-world usability — whether you’re towing, climbing, or crossing terrain where others simply stop. Twin Lockers. True Off-Road Authority. The LC79 GXL comes equipped with factory front and rear differential locks — a feature that separates it from almost everything else in its class. When engaged, power is distributed evenly across both axles, allowing the vehicle to: Maintain traction in extreme off-road conditions Overcome deep mud, sand, and rock crawling scenarios Deliver maximum control in cross-axle situations This isn’t just off-road capability — this is terrain command. Built on a Legendary Platform Unlike modern pickups that prioritize comfort over durability, the LC79 stays true to its roots: Rigid (live) axles front and rear Heavy-duty ladder frame chassis Proven part-time 4WD system with low range The result is a vehicle that is mechanically simple, brutally strong, and globally trusted — from mining sites in Australia to remote terrain across Africa and beyond. GXL — The Complete Package Designed for those who want capability without compromise, the GXL offers: Factory twin diff locks (front + rear) Enhanced interior comfort and refinement Alloy wheels, side steps, and upgraded trim A more premium, everyday driving experience The GXL is the ultimate balance of rugged performance and usability Why the LC79 Still Leads In a world moving toward electronics and complexity, the LC79 stands apart. It offers: - Unmatched durability - Timeless mechanical engineering - Strong resale value and global demand This is not just a vehicle — it’s an asset that holds its worth and earns its reputation every day. SVX Automotive — Access the Exceptional At SVX Automotive, we specialize in sourcing high-spec, hard-to-find vehicles that stand above the ordinary. The LandCruiser 79 Series is more than a pickup — it’s a statement. A statement that you’re ready for anything.
