After a desire to increase luxury car tax here was blocked by the major opposition party the Greens aligned with the government to pass the bill, so long as they made some changes.
This will result in more diesels in the Australian market.

Does this effect large 4WD diesels as well, such as the Landcruiser & Patrol?

Ironically the import tax on luxury 4wds like fuel guzzling Toyota V8 etc is half that of other imported cars, including fuel sipping Toyota Prius. Go figure!their should be a clear cut definition but hey, this is politics so they wing it
I'm not up to speed on company car regulations but wonder if the afformentioned 4wds could be exempted from the LCT due to still being able to be classified, and thus registered, as commercial vehicles?In other words you don't pay LCT on a truck

In fact, I look at this as a real boon for Lexus in General.

Thats likely to go for $100,000 Australian Dollars+
So the discount will not apply.

Will it apply to this dreaded C5, which is only being sold as a diesel in OZ?

A Base C5 sells for less than the threshold regardless.
Quite why you would buy one anyway is beyond me
