Toyota Landcruiser 2023 Interior
No matter the variant, 300 Series LandCruisers have a familiar feel about them – due to their practicality and functionality.

Higher grades, such as the Sahara, get a 12.3-inch colour multimedia touchscreen which is a main feature in the cabin with wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and there’s a wireless charging pad near the shifter. There are USB and USB-C charging points as well.
There’s a cool box/chilly bin in the centre console and its lid can be opened from either side, so driver or passenger can access chilled drinks.
Beyond those features, there are the usual storage spaces, cup holders, receptacles in the doors for bigger bottles, and other spaces for your bits and pieces.
The second row seats are in a 40/20/40 folding configuration, and the third row is a power-folding arrangement that stows away forwards and flat.

My 2007 Toyota LandCruiser is using a lot of coolant
Coolant leaks can be very tricky things, often starting at one point and then running down a hose, bracket or wire to drop on the ground where you’re not looking for them. If you definitely can’t find a leak, however, you need to start looking for another problem which could even be a leaking head gasket which is allowing the coolant to enter the engine’s cylinders.
The first thing I’d do, however, is change the radiator hoses., If they’re flattening out when the engine is running, that suggests they’ve collapsed internally and are unable to cope with the suction created by the engine’s water pump (which circulates the coolant around the engine). Even if the hoses look fine, they can be damaged inside and, left this way, can cause a blockage in the cooling system which can lead to the engine overheating. Perhaps this is already happening, and allowing the boiling coolant to escape the system via the pressurised radiator cap or the overflow system.

Can I still buy the DVD to update the sat-nav in a 2009 Toyota LandCruiser?
I'd start with my local Toyota dealer. Chances are it will have a copy of the relevant DVD in its archives, just as it would have copies of technical manuals for vehicles going way back into Toyota's past. Whether or not you'll be able to make yourself a copy of the DVD is another matter, but it can't hurt to ask.
Failing that, check out your local Toyota or four-wheel-drive club whose members might have the DVD and will be happy for you to copy it. Whether that's a copyright breach, though, might be worth looking into.
If none of those options are available, I've seen the DVD in question advertised online. It isn't cheap, though, at $200 or $300. Perhaps there are websites out there that can download a copy of the files which you can burn to a DVD for a fee.

I struggle to get my 2022 Toyota LandCruiser 200 into the garage
I'll assume you mean the forthcoming Kia EV9 electric SUV. In which case, yes, you will struggle to fit it into a garage that only just contains a 200-Series LandCruiser, as the EV9 is, indeed, 75mm wider. Perhaps. See, at this stage, the images and specifications we've been dished up have involved the vehicle in its concept stage, and as car companies know only too well, not every aspect of a concept makes it to production (which would be sometime next year in the EV9's case).
Whether or not the electric off-roader from Kia will have a mirror-retractor function is anybody's guess right now, but the images we've seen of the concept suggest that instead of conventional mirrors, the EV9 would use small cameras mounted in the mirrors' place, transferring the image to the info-screen inside the car. If that's the case, these tiny cameras would not need to be retractable, suggesting that the width of 2055mm quoted for the Kia is possibly a concept-only dimension.
If the vehicle really reaches production as wide as that, it would have difficulty fitting down some Australian bush tracks; tracks that have been cut by generations of LandCruisers and Nissan Patrols. Then again, the EV9 has been designed for a global market, not just us. And let's not forget the width of a Hummer...
The bottom line is you'll have to wait and see precisely how wide the Kia is when it finally goes on sale. but if your current LandCruiser is a tight fit, don't expect the Kia to be any easier to fit in your garage.

Why can't my 2015 Toyota LandCruiser 200 Series select the top gear?
The cruise control issue could be a fault with the body computer whose job it is to talk to the computer that controls the car’s engine and transmission and turn the driver’s instructions into actions. If there was a problem with the physical actuation of the cruise-control, it would potentially not work at all. But a problem that resets when you turn the ignition off and on again is always cause to suspect a computer glitch.
The transmission issue is one that has been ongoing sine the 200 Series was launched. Top gear (sixth) is so tall for fuel-economy purposes that the vehicle in its original form would not select that gear below about 110km/h. That’s fine for the USA and Middle East where cruising speeds are higher, but in Australia, it meant that some owners were never seeing sixth gear.
The solution was to tale the vehicle back to Toyota for a reflash of the on-board computer which would then instruct the transmission to select top gear at 95 or 100km/h. If this reflash hasn’t been performed, you might find that the vehicle has never actually selected top gear in its life. Definitely look into this possibility before spending money on transmission services or anything mechanical.

Toyota Landcruiser 2023 Seats
The LandCruiser 300 Series is available as a five- or seven-seater.
Seats are fabric in lower grades and leather-accented in high grades.
Driver and front-passenger seats are either manually- or power-adjustable, depending on the variant.
The third-row seats in the seven-seat Cruisers have improved over previous generations but they are still realistically better suited to smaller people, i.e. children or your vertically-challenged mates.
Toyota Landcruiser 2023 Boot Space
Cargo space varies slightly between five- and seven-seater variants of the LandCruiser 300 Series. The Sahara’s cargo space, when all seven seats are in use, is a listed 175 litres behind the third row. That grows to 1004 litres when the second and third row are stowed away.
Toyota Landcruiser 2023 Speed
The Toyota LandCruiser 300 Series is capable of doing the 0-100km/h sprint in about 8.0 seconds. Expect a top speed of around 210km/h.
Toyota Landcruiser 2023 Range
Official fuel consumption is 8.9L/100km on a combined cycle. We've recorded fuel consumption on test, from pump to pump, of 12.8L/100km. Every 300 Series has an 80-litre main fuel tank and a 30L sub-tank so, going by those fuel figures above, you could reasonably expect a driving range of about 860km from a fully-fuelled start.
