PODCAST: COULD THIS BE OUR FIRST LOOK AT THE NEW LDV T60? - TOOLS IN THE SHED EP. 144

EV Channels Review

This episode of 'Tools in the Shed' podcast focuses heavily on the potential future of the LDV T60, with the reveal of a Maxus pickup concept suggesting a significant facelift. The hosts discuss the concept's imposing new design language, particularly the large grille and LED headlights, and note that its profile indicates a refresh rather than an all-new model. Interior changes are also highlighted, with a move towards larger, integrated screens. While the concept previews a more powerful twin-turbo diesel engine (162kW/480Nm), the current T60 Trailrider 2 is deemed slightly overpriced for its offering, with the Mitsubishi Triton seen as a more sensible proposition. The podcast also touches on the Ford Bronco's potential Australian arrival and the Lexus RC's value proposition despite its niche appeal and impractical rear seats. The LandCruiser 200 Series Sahara is praised for its capability but noted as feeling dated and potentially overpriced compared to its prestige rivals, especially with the 300 Series expected to feature smaller engines.
