Toyota Prado

Think luxury, power and all-terrain don't mix? Then think again, and take a moment to check out the latest Toyota Prado. The Prado is an elegant, sleek and rugged 4X4 that has Australia’s legendry Toyota Land Cruiser history and drive-train excellence. Drive a Toyota Prado, and you will discover that this is a vehicle that will take you anywhere on or off the road. Bigger and better looking than before, this awesome 4WD is practically unstoppable off-road.

Under the bonnet is a choice of two different power plants. A 3.0 litre, 4-cylinder, turbo-diesel offers superbly refined and very torquey performance. With 127 kW and 410 Nm to play with, towing the boat and family all around the country is a simple task for the latest Toyota Prado. The high torque results in a potent weapon off-road. Whether you are crawling over riverbeds, negotiating a steep descent or nailing a fast ascent, the wonderful Toyota Prado Diesel has few peers.

Slip into the 4.0 litre, quad cam WT-I V-6 petrol model, and the grunt on demand is astounding. A very smooth 202 kW and 381 Nm of torque is available to the driver. Silky smooth gasoline engines are a Toyota trademark, and the Toyota Prado 4.0 litre can hustle along effortlessly. In fact, the 0-100 km/h dash can be completed in well under ten seconds.

A six-speed manual or a five-speed automatic is available for the both the diesel and petrol models. Toyota Prado engines and gearboxes provide just the right amount of torque for every situation, and their very smooth, quiet operation adds to your driving comfort and relaxed journeying.

Inside the Toyota Prado is a stylish interior that has been built to provide top-of-the-line comfort. With features like powered windows, steering, locks and mirrors, you have the basics. Add air conditioning, accessory power sockets, tilt steering, cruise control, headlamp auto off, lots of pockets and spaces for small items, cup holders for the front, second and third row seats and an electronic AM/FM stereo with an MP3 compatible single disc CD player you are in the lap of luxury. Higher models have options like rear controllable air conditioning, a telescoping steering column, a refrigerated cooler box, a power moon roof, an in dash 4 disc CD player, audio visual navigation and a DVD based satellite system. These premium models really do take you to the next level, and leave you feeling well and truly pampered. Australian’s outback has never looked so comfortable!

The Toyota Prado's safety features include ABS Anti-lock brakes, front and passenger SRS airbags, an energy absorbing steering column, seatbelt pre-tensioners, and auto locking and retractoring second row seatbelts that assist child seat retention. There are so many more other safety features too.
