Following eager anticipation, the all-new Toyota Land Cruiser Prado is officially on sale in South Africa. In its latest iteration, legendary Land Cruiser DNA has been combined with new technologies to deliver higher levels of performance – both off-road and in everyday use.
More than 70 years on from the launch of the original Toyota BJ, the all-new Land Cruiser Prado is returning to its origins with a focus on its core quality as a vehicle you can trust to take you to your destination, and bring you home again, even in the toughest conditions.
The new Land Cruiser Prado is powered by a 150kW 2.8-litre turbodiesel engine matched to a new eight-speed Direct Shift automatic transmission, giving it the power to pull loads up to 3500kg. The interior offers a choice of five or seven-seat configurations, with a design that evokes the strength and functionality of an authentic off-roader.
The three-variant Prado range brings the rugged capability worthy of a Land Cruiser name, with major improvements to driveability, technology and design. The TX variant sets a solid specification foundation; featuring a fully leather-upholstered cabin and passenger seat heating.
The VX-R in turn adds a host of features – including a digital rear-view mirror and a larger infotainment screen. The First Edition is the pinnacle of the all-new Land Cruiser line-up, available only in limited numbers and for a limited period.
The First Edition is easily distinguishable from the TX and VX-R, courtesy of the classic round headlamps versus the rectangular shape found in the other models.
