Months after being unveiled at the this year’s SOMI (State of the Motoring Industry) and after recently making its first public debut at the 2024 NAMPO Park, Toyota has finally announced the model range and pricing of the all-new Land Cruiser Prado.
Land Cruiser Prado line-up
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, driver and passenger seat heating, heated steering wheel, heads-up display and a wireless charging station.
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.
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.
