LandCruiser 300 VX touring & towing build
Brand new, 154 km on the clock, and built to tow and tour the long way round.
- 310Ah lithium
- 3000VA inverter
- 220W solar
- VRM remote monitoring
A brand-new LandCruiser 300 VX fitted with 310Ah of lithium, a Victron 3000VA inverter, solar and full towing gear, with every component tucked away so the cargo area stays usable.
How it came together
This VX came fresh from Toyota, went on to Jacksons 4x4, then came to us for the full touring and towing treatment. The brief was serious power without giving up the cargo area, so the 310Ah Custom Lithium battery, the Victron MultiPlus and the charging gear are stashed in spaces you'd never think to look.
With 3000VA on tap and plenty of battery and solar behind it, it runs the induction cooktop, kettle, toaster, air fryer or sandwich press easily. Full remote support through Victron VRM means we can check in on the system wherever it ends up.
Plenty of Australian-made products went into this one, ready to take on harsh Australian conditions.
"Being trusted to go this big on a build with only 154 km on the clock is something I never dreamed of 16 years ago."
Nigel Whibley, SA RV Electrics
