Toyota recently upgraded its top of the range Land Cruiser 300 with a box shaped style design, more aggressive and muscular. It was only a matter of time until the design philosophy filtered down to the Land Cruiser Prado updating the popular SA icon. 

Available now in showrooms near you the eagerly awaited all-new Toyota Land Cruiser Prado. More than 70 years since the launch of the original Toyota BJ the all-new Prado is returning to its origins with focus on its core quality as a vehicle you can trust to take you to your destination and bring you back home again even in the toughest conditions.

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 3 500kg. 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.

Offered in three variants, the TX, is a rugged capable worthy Land Cruiser with improvements to drivability, technology, and design. Featuring a fully leather-upholstered cabin, driver and passenger seat heating, heated steering wheel, heads-up display, and wireless charging station. The VX-R adds a host of other features including a digital rear-view mirror and a larger infotainment system.

The First Edition is the pinnacle of the line-up available only in limited numbers for a limited period.

The prestigious 1st 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.
