Car Profiles - Toyota Land Cruiser Prado

TOYOTA LAND CRUISER PRADO

If you can't handle the sheer size of its bigger brother, then you have its smaller sibling named the Prado. Space is enormous, plus power had been upgraded than before. There's a 4.0 V6 but we suggest to spend more for the diesel.

The Good: Durable and practical
The Bad: Not that refined

Price Range: P2,972,000-P3,857,000
Our Rating: ***
