Toyota Land Cruiser 300 Ownership Cost In The UAE: New & Used Guide

The Toyota Land Cruiser is one of the UAE’s most popular full-size SUVs. Its reputation for reliability, off-road ability and resale value helps explain why the Toyota Land Cruiser is so popular in the UAE.

However, the purchase price is only part of the ownership cost. Fuel, servicing, repairs, tyres, insurance, tolls, parking and registration all add to the real cost of running an LC300.

A new Toyota Land Cruiser currently starts from around AED 239,900, while higher-spec models can exceed AED 400,000. Buyers can compare the available Toyota Land Cruiser trims and variants before choosing a model.

Used LC300 prices vary significantly depending on model year, specification, mileage, condition and regional specification.

Cost Calculation Assumptions

For this guide, we have assumed:

• Annual driving: 20,000km
• Fuel economy: Around 7-10km/L for petrol models
• Fuel: Special 95 petrol at AED 3.49/L, based on the August 2026 UAE petrol prices
• Regular scheduled servicing
• No accident repairs or major unexpected mechanical failures

All figures are market-based estimates, not guaranteed ownership costs. Actual spending can vary depending on mileage, driving style, fuel prices, service centre, warranty coverage, vehicle age, condition and off-road use.

Cost Of Owning A New Toyota Land Cruiser 300

The LC300 is available with a 4.0-litre naturally aspirated V6 and a 3.5-litre twin-turbo V6. Toyota has also introduced the Land Cruiser Hybrid in the UAE, pairing a 3.5-litre twin-turbo V6 with an electric motor.

Based on our assumptions, annual petrol spending could range from around AED 7,000 to AED 10,000.

Routine maintenance includes oil, filters, fluids and scheduled inspections. Over longer ownership periods, brakes, batteries and tyres become more important. UAE heat puts extra stress on rubber, so owners should know when to change car tyres in the UAE.

The LC300 generation arrived for the 2022 model year, meaning the used market currently covers relatively recent vehicles.

Regional specification matters. Imported examples can sometimes appear cheaper, but buyers should understand the differences between GCC-spec and imported cars before comparing prices.

• Fuel: AED 7,000-10,000
• Maintenance and repairs: AED 3,000-5,500
• Estimated annual total: AED 10,000-15,500

• Fuel: AED 7,500-10,500
• Maintenance and repairs: AED 5,000-9,000
• Estimated annual total: AED 12,500-19,500

Mileage should always be considered alongside age and maintenance history. Our guide explains what mileage is considered too high for a used car in the UAE.

High-Mileage Or Hard-Used LC300

Vehicles regularly used for off-roading or long-distance driving may require additional work on the suspension, cooling system, brakes and four-wheel-drive components.

• Fuel: AED 8,000-11,000
• Maintenance and repair reserve: AED 7,000-13,000
• Estimated annual total: AED 15,000-24,000

Before buying, check:

• Complete service history
• Engine and cooling system
• Gearbox operation
• Four-wheel-drive system
• Suspension
• Tyres and brakes
• Underbody damage
• Electrical systems
• Signs of heavy desert use

Additional Toyota Land Cruiser 300 Ownership Costs

Insurance: Insurance premiums depend on vehicle value, driver history and coverage. Owners planning regular desert driving should review the policy carefully, as off-road use may require additional cover. Here is our guide explaining what car insurance covers in the UAE.

Salik and parking: Daily Dubai commuters should also budget for road tolls and paid parking. From June 2026, VAT applies to Salik and Parkin parking charges.

Depreciation: Depreciation is not included in the running-cost figures above. However, the Land Cruiser has historically been one of the vehicles associated with slower depreciation rates in the UAE.

Owners should also budget for registration renewal, finance interest, car washing, detailing and optional accessories.
