Im not going to lie to yall, I love seeing him lease vehicles Actually test them and give us *REAL* Reviews No face value nonsense, No Silly "the interior is plasticy" Comments like you'd here from other "Reviews" Real pros and cons about the actual function and usability of the vehicle. And he can really out fit a vehicle Thanks for this Series Ronny Dahl Also Its pretty cool as a US person to see how people in AU do offroading 👌

You can change the rear door beep in the mid display , just have to go into the setting, plus you can turn off the auto door lock feature, in the display in the middle of the car. Just turn off the speed lock and you are all good. Plus Touota dealer can turn off the rear door beep completely, service department can do this for you. Enjoy, they are an amazing car.

Hi Ronny, some tips on your annoyances…. If it’s anything like the 300 you can do the following 1. Tailgate beeping. The service department can configure it to only beep once 2. I’ve updated my setting so that when I put the vehicle into park all doors unlock. Noting there are a number of different configurations available. Looking forward to more videos on the 250’s journey

I watched your video with great interest as an owner of a Jeep Rubicon with eTorque. The 48V assist mentioned, Jeep made available in early Wrangler JL models. Mine is a '21 model purchased new. As with the Prado, the Rubicon also has sway-bar connection, rear lockers including front lockers and many other "off-road" tools. The beeps, locks and other "annoying" things you should be able to find in menu settings with the ability to turn off/on or edit as desired. The bright instrument display on a Rubicon can be simply adjusted using a "wheel" knob on the dash, even when driving. The Prado is an amazing vehicle. Time will tell if the legendary Toyota stands up to the legendary reliability.

Ronny, I knew you had some of the specs wrong in previous videos and didn't say anything which is why I respect you coming out and correcting it. You're not wrong in the very little information provided from the start with models and colours, and luckily like you I order the Altitude which was supposed to be delivered next week but now a 6 week wait due to a ship failing quarantine. I mainly picked the altitude because I didn't need 7 seats anymore, the tyre setup, sway bar disconnect and diff lock. Having said that the whining I've seen on FB regarding the 7 seat having no room behind the seats has been in there for all 7 & 8 seat 4WD model and different vehicle manufactures and if you don't want 7 seats take them out. The box is a bit odd but that is removable also. I will look forward to more videos including mods for the wise Ronny and hopefully by the time my vehicle arrives i will have all the information. Keep up the great videos.

So agree with your comment on bright screens. Years ago I had a series of SAABs and got addicted to the improved contrast and eye relief when night driving by pushing a button which switched off all lights except the speedo. I currently drive a Paj Sport which is old school instrument cluster and achieve s similar effect by turning the reo switch all the way down. However, when I drive a new car at night I find the dash lighting, touch screens etc have overpowering illumination. It’s dangerous, unsafe and mind blowing stupid that our safety authorities think that this is safe design practice.

Only Landcruisers and flagship lexus models are made in yoshiwara factory in Japan. The prado is a LC, its made along side the 70 and the 200/300. In fact, in many parts of the world the landcruiser prado is the only landcruiser they get. If you're not towing, and you've got a family who enjoys spending time outdoors then the prado is the right option. That's why its so popular globally. I get why people call it a shopping trolley but it also shows a lot of ignorance on their part. Personally im loving the look of the new prado, but I'll be buying it in gx550 overland guise. Looking forward to this build and im very happy to see its not "another game changer build " of a 70 series or 300.

i went to have a look at the seven seat VX yesterday.... sat in the front seat and it was fantastic.... feel of the new seats and comfort was great. asked to see the boot and the salesman apologised.... after opening up the rear door i could see why. the gaps between the seats and storage box are cavernous (7 seat)..... you could lose a small animal down there, (it is literally open) you can cover it with a rubber mat.... like my current GDJ150 (later shape). difference is the mat in my VX is for catching crap and saving the wear on the floor... in the new 250 it could be for covering up a turd which is the 22cm deep well that is the rear seats design. for a car that costs over $90k for the variant we were looking at... it was a 7 step walk away the 7 seat versions for mine. such a shame for a aesthetically pleasing vehicle for the most part.

Next it needs 17inch rims with decent tyre wall height as a must do mod and the best looking rim for that is the ROH Assault in machined finish "Stunning Rim" (17 x 9" preferable neg 22)

If you forgot to switch the night mode on your screen, you can kill the brightness of the screen by using the scroller button above of the boot openning button. It won't change to night mode, but it won't bother you anymore. 2. For the boot noise. Long press ok on your steering wheel, go to settings and you will find the option to change the setting. PLEASE.

So in terms of reliability, spare parts availability, possible legal parts tuning options and of course the 10 years warranty, perhabs it will definitly be the LC.

Good on yah Ron. You have great tastes, as that’s the same grade and colour assuming it’s glacier white, as what l want to get in a few years time, when l can afford it. So for me for now it’s enjoying watching videos of people like yourself who own them to gauge what they think of their vehicles especially if it’s an Altitude. Early media reports suggested that the Altitude had the same features as the VX minus a few things like adaptive suspension, but didn’t mention TPMS missing. The spec sheet says otherwise only on VX and Kakadu. Spec sheets can have errors. Are you able to please confirm if the Altitude does or doesn’t have TPMS?

Seen you with the 76 at Galleria when I was having a look at these new Prado’s! I know the RAV4 you can turn on “unlock all doors” and also adjust the boot beeper volume all in the settings on the cluster

You can usually adjust the lock system in the combo meter to open the entire system or just the driver. Alternatively, the car was stolen as the doors were being locked.

Lucky bugger that you get even as good as 87 liters. the USDM one has a single 68 liter tank. 110 is fantastic, especially as a diesel.

Here in Norway, the 90, 120, 150 and now the 250, have always been named just Land Cruiser (not Prado). It's interesting how car manufacturers market their models different in parts of the world.

Can someone explain to me the practicality of 48V hybrid system. It doesn't propel vehicle just easier starting, any negligible fuel economy improvement would be outweighed by e the weight? and I lose 40 L fuel capacity.

Was at my local Toyota dealer this morning. A few things to note: the 250 has a 12V battery - it's probably charged from the 48V unit but there's still a lump of lead-acid under the bonnet, and no obvious space for a second battery. The front badge on the Kakadu is the current Toyota logo; all other variants have TOYOTA (I'm not shouting) at the front. Standard tyres on Altitude are Toyo Open Country x-A/T 265/70R18 but I can't find any info on the "x-A/T" designation - could be an OEM-specific model.

You can adjust the screen brightness. You can also configure it to switch between day and night (automatically senses and adjusts brightness down for night). You need to get to know your vehicle better, mate.

Is the running gear as strong as the 300? CVS, drive shaft etc.

Addblue is the killer for me. I've got the 48v rouge, so it will be interesting to see what related mods you'll do to your Prado.

Adblue isn’t a problem at all, seriously it is a non issue.

I'm pretty sure you can change the door lock settings like on a 200 and silence the beep of the tailgate?

in the us model you can lower brightness of with the dimming dial on bottom right (for you) buttons. mine was alright super bright, and the setting on screen did nothing. weird.

love to see a comparison with the 150 kakadu, still the best all round 4x4 for most people....shame not a bigger fuel tank, that could be a deal breaker for Australian remote driving

You say it can go to a 33 to 35 inch. But like my MR Triton, the second you go to a bigger tyre, you can't fit it where the spare wheel goes. Does the new Prado spare wheel well fit a bigger spare?

It is fiddly but you can disconnect the rear speaker that beeps when you open the rear door.. had to do it to my Fortuner Crusade, there are many videos on KZbin.
@l2andom
@l2andom Ай бұрын
There are some options the dealer is able to disable/enable to include beeps and things. Or you can just buy a carista or something similar and do it yourself if your dealer can't work it out.

Can you manually open the rear hatch? What if those electric motors fail while on tour, can you get to your food and water supplies?

The first Prado they’ve ever built that appeals to me aesthetically a rusted on cruiser and Hilux guy. At first glance it looks like the best one they’ve ever made. Took one for a drive the other day. And I think it’s very good marketing to lean further towards Land Cruiser prado other then prado Land Cruiser as you put it.
