2010 Toyota LandCruiser Prado Review

To coincide with its international launch in Japan, Toyota Australia has today showcased a virtually hand-built pre-production version of the fourth generation LandCruiser Prado SUV.

Due to go on sale in Australia from November, the new Prado boasts revamped styling, improved performance and economy and a raft of driver assist technologies for both on and off road.

As Toyota’s fourth largest market for the Prado, a portion of the development work was carried out in Australia, with test mules disguised as the current generation Prado covering 100,000km on local roads – 70 per cent of which were unsealed.

With four models to choose from in Toyota’s 4WD and SUV fleet, Prado represents the first step into true off-road ability, meshing the qualities of a luxurious family SUV and capable off-roader.

In order to fulfil this reputation for the new generation model, Toyota has adapted many technologies from both the Lexus RX and LandCruiser 200 ranges.

While exact specifications are still being finalised, expect the new Prado to feature some of the electronic aids developed for passenger vehicles such as vehicle stability control and traction control as well as seven airbags as standard.

The current 4.0-litre V6 petrol engine gains dual VVT-i with power increased by more than 10 per cent, while a turbo-diesel variant will also be made available which will see fuel economy drop to less than 9.0-litres per 100km.

The design direction for the new Prado has been described as “intelligent modern” by chief engineer, Makoto Arimoto, forming a fresh yet familiar styling evolution for the nameplate. (click here for full review).

Toyota Prado 2010: Review

""The new Prado is everything you expect, and more. It is just plain phenomenal in the bush, where the latest range of driver aids - but particularly the 'Crawl' system and driver-selectable multi-terrain package - mean it can practically drive itself. You only have to steer as it walks up and down the toughest terrain.

There are also cameras to check obstacles anywhere around the Prado, provided you pay enough to get the right package, and the transmission has the low-range setting and differential locks you need for serious stuff.

Pay enough and you can also have height-adjustable suspension, an extra diff lock and the multi-terrain deal which means you choose the sort of conditions - from sand through to rocks - and let the electronic brains decide the best settings for fuss-free travel.

Get back on the bitumen and the suspension feels more plush, there is more 'stuff' to enjoy, and the cabin is a little more roomy and significantly more practical." (click here for the full article)
