The Toyota Prado, with its retro-tough looks and improved interior, is the most highly anticipated new vehicle launch of 2024 in Australia. The new Prado offers impressive towing capability and the famous Toyota toughness, making it a dream for Australian buyers. Toyota’s testing process, known as the kowashikiri process, focuses on finding weaknesses and improving them, particularly in extreme off-road conditions. The Prado is set to launch in Australia soon, featuring a 2.8-litre four-cylinder turbodiesel engine and the 48-volt ‘V-Active’ system. With pricing starting at $72,500 for the base model, the Prado will compete with the Ford Everest and Nissan’s new V6-powered Patrol 4×4.
