by The halt in production of the Land Cruiser 300 (and not only) is associated with a shortage of spare parts and the spread of coronavirus in Southeast Asia. According to the Japanese auto giant, all 14 car plants in the Land of the Rising Sun are waiting for conveyor stoppages, which will last up to two weeks.
And most of all, the new Land Cruiser will “get it” – the conveyor, where they produce the Land Cruiser 300, will be stopped for almost half a month. And this is despite the fact that the demand for the novelty is such that a deficit has already arisen…
By the way, at the moment, the queue for the “Cruiser” in Japan itself has stretched for more than 4 (FOUR!) years. There is also a rush abroad where enterprising importers and dealers (including gray ones) “inflate” prices due to the deficit.
Buying a new Land Cruiser 300 in Ukraine is still possible (there are still stocks in the regions), but it is already challenging. The price starts from 2.4 million hryvnias. In Japan, however, the cost of the Toyota Land Cruiser 300 starts from 5,100,000 yen, which in conversion to hryvnias amounts to almost 1,245,000 hryvnias – that is, almost twice cheaper than ours.
