More powerful Toyota Prado coming October

Australia’s top-selling large SUV to get same power boost as upgraded Toyota HiLux ute

The Toyota Prado will be a brawnier, more powerful machine when an upgraded version of the popular large SUV arrives in Australian showrooms in October.

Adopting the same enhanced engine as the upcoming 2021 Toyota HiLux as part of a ‘tech update’, the 2021 Toyota Prado will see power and torque from its 2.8-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel increase by a respective 20kW and 50Nm – 130kW/450Nm to a more muscular 150kW/500Nm.

Toyota Australia is expected to confirm the full list of changes later this month, including whether the extra gristle from the engine will see its towing capacity increase from its current 3000kg limit.
