best off road vehicle australia Page 2

“Best off-road vehicle in Australia?” depends if your weekend is dunes, bush, or bragging rights.

• Toyota LandCruiser 300 Series: unstoppable touring, big torque and range; downside is the sticker price and sheer girth.
• Ford Ranger Raptor: desert-runner suspension and comfort; but payload/towing take a hit and the V6 likes a drink.
• Land Rover Defender (110): absurdly capable and refined; countered by complexity and premium servicing.
• Suzuki Jimny: light, simple, hilarious on tight tracks; less so on highways with a boot the size of a lunchbox.

Pick the one that suits your terrain and tolerance for fuel bills, scratches, and monthly repayments.
