New car has arrived,lots of subtle improvements over 2018 model. Pickup better, quieter inside, and ride much improved. the bounce over speed bumps much softer. The front end looks much better giving the appearance of looking less bulky. Info tainment is so much improved. The TPMS now can register a new sensor and also reset. No more trips to the dealer. Actually I probably think this was done as dealers could not make much money swapping summer, winter tyres.

How are you finding the ride comfort? I could only get a short ride in one and it rode quite hard and you could feel every bump. Speed bumps were a bang bang affair. What are your thoughts on this. I don’t know what tyre pressure it had, it had 19 inch wheels and a bullbar. I have ordered one and have to wait 6 months but I am worried as to the ride quality. I drive a Mitsubishi challenger atm and the Kakadu seemed to ride harder than that.
@kubibear28904 жыл бұрын
I own the 2018 model and have just ordered the 2021 with more power, I agree totally with you and have found, in winter turning up the temp by half a degree is all you need to do. The roads in your country seem very straight , but driving on a European mountain road that extra setting on the suspension just tightens up the roll through corners and give you more confidence. Its not mind altering but a subtle change . The extra power will come in very useful when the car is full of holiday stuff and you want to join a motorway or exit a rest stop . The addition of day/night sensors that can pick out people and animals is a big plus. Meeting a Moose that is so very camouflaged at dusk and is bigger than a horse is scary. Happened to me many times. The demographic of older people who are out spending their children's inheritance is spot on. Toyota has done their homework very well. great revue.

Being a long time 4wd owner, it’s like finger nails down a black board every time I hear a non-4wd owner refer to them as “SUV’s” in Australia. And commenting on how large the mirrors are, it’s clear he doesn’t regularly drive 4wds, not that there’s anything wrong with that. I find sedan & SUV (soft roader) mirrors to be quite small with little visibility through them, but that’s only because I don’t regularly drive them. But you can always pick a non-4wd owner 10 times out of 10 in a car review of one. This occasion was no different. Full credit to him for not faulting the on-road handling/manners on this occasion but I think that is because he drove the Kakadu with KDSS. Car reviewers love to knock how a 4wd handles winding turns. It’s like a “News just in bulletin.”

Live on the north coast nsw, go to our farm, have 4 kids and do light off road eg national parks, beach. I’ve been driving my R51 Nissan Pathfinder for 14 years and found it great. I narrowed it down to the Everest Basecamp and Prado. I loved the Prado’s “simplicity”. Our teenage boys fit well and perfect to tow our Jayco camper.

You would need at the very least, mud tyres, lift kit, front and rear lockers, and underbody protection. Then if you can do it, add a sway bar disconnect. Otherwise a Jeep Rubicon would be far more capable stock.

Very comprehensive review Paul. I really appreciate the details you are going to. I was looking for a SUV since 2020, and had off road capabilities at the back of my head in my search. back in 2020, you could still get the last few Pajeros , and the Prados didn't have the safety pack as standard if my memory was correct. I waited, and in 2022, dis some test driving on the MUX, Subaru forester, Mazda CX-9 and a 2012 LC Prado, and a Pajero as well. For some reason, I was much impressed about the ride on the Prado than any other. Of course the CX-9 was the most comfy ride on the road, however it being petrol, and having AWD was not my thing. Finally I ended up with the legendary LC Prado, and I am happy that I made the right decision. Now the Prado has all the safety features, which was missing, makes night driving and driving in heavy rains in freeways much safer. I went with GXL range to save about 9K, that I didn't really want heated seats, leather seats and the Bose audio (the stock speakers are awesome enough) , but really useful is the side cameras, when parking and off road drives. Looking for a way to install a front grille camera which will be useful for parking, which shouldn't cost more than couple hundred $$.

I'm in the market for a new car at the moment. I've looked at the highlander, but although it is incredibly comfortable and has good fuel economy, the ground clearance is downright scary. My wife takes a journey to a kindergarten on a morning and there is a shortcut that involves going over some water, rocks, etc, which my X Trail just about manages, but there would be no chance for the highlander. Then we have the Prado, which I like the look of and of course it is immensely practical for the roads (if you can call them that) that I sometimes need to travel on, but the interior bums me out. That 360 camera would be a massive downgrade to what I've got now. The old school hand break as well. I haven't had that for 10 years. It's a pity, as it wouldn't been a big upgrade in interior design and camera quality for me to go for it, but alas, I just can't as it is currently.

I towed a 2.5T van around most of Oz last year and found the only real issue was with rear suspension sagging even after installing TJM uprated springs before the trip. Had to replace the rear springs in Broome with Old man Emu with an even higher rated set. Only problem now is the Prado is really stiff and bouncy without the van. Could you explain how the Kakadu rear suspension would handle a trip like this straight out of the showroom. You briefly mentioned the rear suspension can be adjusted up and down. Is it really designed strong enough for the long haul?

my dad has a LC 90 prado, and has over 360000kms, I am going to buy new LC150 prado

I think you could say it competes with the Pajero, although it's outdated it's probably the best in comparison

Only loss from going the flat back option is losing the backup sub fuel tank. 150L down to 87L with the flat back option.

‘Dependable, reliable, goes on forever’ - obviously he hasn’t heard about the DPF issues or pistons randomly cracking with these diesel motors?

The pistons cracking is your own story!

I did notice a lot of broken land cruisers, hiluxs & prado’s while doing the lap last year. The most common vehicle was without doubt fords ranger / bt 50 then land cruisers. The common theme seemed to be towing over 2 tonne. Don’t believe the 3.5 tonne adds I guess. If you mistreat your vehicle it will break at some point.

0-100km/h if officially 9.9 seconds with an aggressive start, ie hold brake and feather throttle to 2k rpm and then release brake. Commercial version or SWB version are about half a second quicker again with the same auto box.

We don't have Prado available in Canada, but we have Lexus GX460. Its not diesel though. Its gas engine 4.7ltr V8 is very thrusty and insanely reliable. People say it goes on and on and on. Would love to have smaller diesel engine on it like Prado

I really like the Prado....and I was on the market to buy one ...however, that back door that swings out was the killer. Is there the option for the door to open up ? same cost and not adding on as an extra ?
