Yay!
We are going to person due contention to Defender successful the looks department.

Pricing is the cardinal though.
LC300's basal exemplary starts astir 106k$ and its ex-showroom terms successful India is 2.1Cr, lol.

And Prado's terms seems to commencement astir fractional that people successful the states which could pb them to an ex-showroom terms of 1Cr.

Still ludicrous, but truthful is each different luxury car these days.

For Toyota.

Option 1 - Price it bang against the Defender and bargain income distant from it. Ofcourse, the Prado can't lucifer the Defender successful bodystyle and powertrain options, but determination decidedly volition beryllium takers for a Toyota. Especially those with the wealth (not Landcruiser money) but can't tummy a Landrover ownership.

Option 2 - Price it similar however they person ever priced the Prado successful India. Leave a wide abstraction for the adjacent gen Fortuner pricing and upcoming ScorpioN rival.

We each cognize which enactment Toyota India volition choose.

Lack of diesel option?

Even if the determination isn't based connected the substance option, wherefore fuss selling the Lexus version, erstwhile you tin merchantability the Toyota mentation for Lexus wealth successful India. Though launching the GX would springiness it much income and marque visibility. Seeing lone Lexus ES connected the roads. More accidental of seeing an Urus connected the roads than seeing an NX oregon RX connected the roads.
