With its 4WD heritage evident in every aspect of its powerful and commanding exterior design, the Prado’s naturally dynamic presence really shines in rough terrain.

II. Toyota Prado Comfort: Maximum comfort for all on board

A range of thoughtful amenities throughout the cabin assures superior comfort and convenience for everyone aboard.

Air Conditioning

Fully automatic air conditioning offers three zone independent temperature adjustment (driver’s seat, front passenger seat and rear seats). A pollen removal mode also helps reduce pollen and fine dust in the cabin, while the independent rear seat temperature controls enables everyone aboard to be more comfortable.

Premium JBL Surround Sound System

The best listening environment for every passenger. 17 speaker, 11 channel, 605 watt Digital Signal Processing (DSP) amplifier employs proprietary JBL Synthesis signal processing to produce an enveloping, emotional 7.1 channel surround sound experience in every seating position. Bluetooth hands-free phone capability is also available. Both a USB interface and an audio mini-jack are available for external audio input, enabling you to easily connect your own playback devices to enjoy your favourite music

Smart Entry and Push Start System

With the Smart Key, you can unlock and lock the doors just by touching a door handle, and you can start the general engine just by stepping on the brake and pressing the Start/Stop button

Rear Door Hatch

Provides convenient access without opening the rear door, for shopping and light items

Power Seat Switches

Switches to the rear right of the second row seats and on the left hand side quarter trim allows third row 50:50 split seats to be retracted electrically for flush with floor storage

Driver Seat Memory Switches

Remembers the preferred seating positions for up to two drivers

III. Toyota Prado Safety: The Leading edge in Safety

Advanced technologies for safety performance inspire your trust and peace of mind

SRS Airbags

SRS airbags contribute to driver and passenger safety by helping to minimise impact force in the event of a collision. Ample features include SRS curtain shield airbags that cover all three rows, and an SRS knee airbag for the driver that bolsters protection by distributing and cushioning impact on the knees

Pre-crash Safety System

When a collision is judged imminent due to sensor detection of an obstacle on the road ahead, the Pre-crash Safety System alerts the driver by beeping and displaying a warning message. If the driver performs emergency braking, Pre-crash Brake Assist is activated to bolster braking force. When the system judges a collision to be unavoidable, Pre-crash Brake Assist operates to reduce the speed of collision, and seatbelt tension is increased to contribute to higher occupant protection performance

Dynamic Radar Cruise Control System

Dynamic Radar Cruise Control is an advanced system that enhances driving safety and convenience. When travelling at a preset cruising speed, it uses millimetre wave radar to detect and monitor the vehicle ahead, regulating speed as needed to maintain a driver defined following distance (long, medium or short), and returning to the preset cruising speed when it detects that the vehicle ahead has changed lanes

Vehicle Stability Control (VSC)

When driving on slippery road surfaces, VSC enhances vehicle stability by controlling engine output by braking at each wheel if sensors detect an abrupt steering operation or lateral slipping of the vehicle

Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS)

AFS effectively illuminates the road ahead by aiming the headlamps to the left or right in response to steering angle and vehicle speed

Active Headrests

In the event of rear-end collisions, front seats with active headrests contribute to reduction of neck impact by moving the headrest diagonally upwards to simultaneously cushion the head and back

Parking Sensors

Displays a warning message on the multi-information display and beeps if an obstruction is detected, making parking easier

IV. Toyota Prado Advanced Features: Innovations for Off-road Performance

Whether you’re an experienced off-roader or a first-time explorer, Prado incorporates numerous innovative technologies to support off-road driving and provide you with a superlative driving experience.

Multi-terrain Select

For Optimum Driving according to Off-road Conditions By choosing one of the four drive modes offered by the multi-information switch on the steering wheel, this revolutionary system lets you obtain the optimum traction you need to handle slippery surfaces like mud, sand and loose rock or non-slippery surfaces like mogul and rock. So even if you’re not an experienced off-road driver, you can enjoy secure, sure footed control when travelling over rough terrain

Multi-terrain Anti-lock Braking System with Electronic Brake-force Distribution

Multi-terrain ABS operates in synch with Multi-terrain Select, automatically regulating ABS operation to suit off-road driving conditions such as mud and sand. With normal ABS activated in on-road driving, EBD helps provide balanced braking regardless of the occupant or cargo load

Multi-terrain Monitor

Four cameras, mounted on the front, rear and sides of the vehicle, enable the Multi-terrain Monitor to display six different views of the terrain outside. The system allows the driver to see the surrounding conditions, even when cresting a hill or driving on extremely uneven ground that makes it difficult to see the terrain directly. Switching between the various views is easily effected via the multi-information switch. On the forward view, on-screen indicators show the current direction of travel

Steering Angle Display

The multi-information display also shows the vehicle’s wheel angle in real time, enabling visual confirmation of steering direction to help you stay on track and out of trouble

Crawl Control (5-speed)

Crawl Control provides optimal throttle and brake control, maintaining a constant low speed to support safe, sure driving on sand, dirt, rock, mud, steep grades or other surfaces that require fine accelerator control. Five speeds are offered, with fully automatic throttle and brake control that frees you to concentrate on steering the vehicle

Electronically Controlled Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System (KDSS)

For outstanding drivability off-road and a comfortable ride on-road, KDSS uses hydraulic cylinders to increase wheel articulation over rough terrain and accumulators to increase ride smoothness over uneven surfaces. Off-road Driving All tyres are kept firmly in contact with the ground, even when travelling over rocks and other demanding surfaces, so you enjoy a safe, stable ride with excellent traction for superior rough-terrain drivability and control. On-road Driving Body roll is suppressed, so you experience superior steering stability and a steady ride when cornering. In addition, vibration is effectively absorbed through fine electronic control even when travelling on slightly uneven surfaces, realising a sufficiently comfortable ride

Electronically Modulated Rear Suspension plus Adaptive Variable Suspension

Electronically modulated rear air suspension maintains a constant vehicle height irrespective of the number of occupants or amount of cargo. Height is adjustable by switch operation. Additionally, AVS regulates the damping force of the shock absorbers according to driver input and road conditions. A choice of Comfort, Normal and Sports modes is offered

Full-time 4WD System with Torsen Limited Slip Differential

An easy to use dial type transfer switch lets you shift smoothly between low range and high range drive. There are also different switches that allow you lock the centre and rear differentials
