Good quality built from a manufacturer that is known for its quality product. For such a large vehicle, the drive quality is excellent, with reasonable response on accelerating. Plenty of power from the engine that delivers as and when required. Essential features such as anti-skid braking and air bags are present.
Large capacity fuel tank.
Toyota. A solid product from a good manufacturer.
A reasonably fresh look that doesn't look outdated in a few years.
Good road clearance.
Good drive quality.
ABS.
Air bags are present
Petrol consumption is on the high side, particularly when driving around in the city/suburbs.

Yet anothe 4x4 with the Toyota Toughness. Performs head and shoulders above other 4x4's in its category. Has all the necessary gear such as Hill start, hill decent, 2nd start. Good towing capacity with loads of room. A very good and practical 4x4 all around.
A great 4x4. Excellent drive both on and off road. Driver seat well positioned with good views in all directions. Interior is practical and comfortable and spacious. very easly get 7-8 people without cramming. 180 Litre fuel tank gives good range. V6 with Dual VVTi produces good power and engine torque. Design of the 4x4 is very unique and not too over the top. Well priced 4x4
Not a thing

I like Toyota 4x4's they are usually quite well designed and presented but the popularity of Toyota for commercial use with its range like the Hiace sort of sets it in that category, regardless of some of their fancy Hiace trucks to appeal to the young masculine male demographic they still appeal as a work horse and not a leisure vehicle especially the amount of White Toyotas on the road.
Its a 4WD, live sports utility 4x4's
Its a Toyota and Toyota are curently rated amongst the most expensive for service and parts and they are only mid-level general consumer products...

We bought ours brand new in Aug 08 and absolutely love it. I would recommend it to anyone who wants a 4x4.
Comfortable, powerful, economic (D4D GXL)and very sexy looking. Good off road as well.
Rear vision is a bit limited, headlights aren't great and the in glass aerial get's interference pretty easily.

The extra seats in Grande are quiet comfortable, the adjustable air conditioning in the rear seats and in the very back makes it very comfortable when there are 8 peop;e in the car.
Toyota Prado are a great car, comfortable, very good visability, love the seat adjustability. Great fuel consumption
They should have a rear camera for rear visability.

The new Prado which is to be released in a few weeks look great, not only does the new 3 door have a 3 tonne towing capability, It has everything and more than a big 4x4. Toyota have really out done themselves with the CAPPED servicing for 3 years with all new vehicles. They might be a little more expensive than competitors, but look at what you are getting, capped servicing, top rated safety ratings, AMAZING resale and so much more. I cant wait to trade in my cruiser to get one.
Sporty feel with great features

I've to say that, Toyota Prado, is accessible for both personal and professional use. and with it comes along a great comfort the engine respond accordingly, and its heaviness create safety on the road, mostly for family people.
Toyota Prado is a great car, I mostly love its live sports utility 4x4's. It's a magnificent car, and well known for safety and comfort. My dad owned of those few years ago. And it feel help a lot mostly if you are family man.
Now, if you do have kids, you've got to do the hard work of making sure that the car doors are well close or open, since the itself is quiet heavy. and another thing is its fuel consumption.

Best 4x4 in its class.. quiet, smooth, powerful, capable. 40,000 Km on and nothing has needed to be done to the Prado apart from servicing. never missed a beat. 4.0 litre V6 is a pearler, smooth as silk and has bags or power and torque. The 5 speed auto is a perfect example of how an auto should be, smooth effortless shifts, no hunting and quiet.

Standard Tyres are a shocker, I changed mine to Cooper ATR's WOW!! what a difference. Air con struggles above 38 degrees but thats a known problem that TOYOTA AUSTRALIA have yet to cure.
Rear door is a nuisance but you get used to it.
No vechicle is perfect, the prado no different, but all the positives counteract the negatives.
An excellent vehicle at an excellent price. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

I purchased about one month ago (new $58000 less trade), done three thousand kilometers... went over the great dividing range( 1100 hundred meters) pulling a 1550 kg caravan...too easy to forget it's there !...recommend for pulling power...most happy with it ....the 2006 has a less powerful engine so look for a 2007 Diesel not petrol.....check it out at the Toyota site .....
The three litre diesel turbo ....well built has nice solid feel, very good fuel useage 7.9lt per 100km Pulling a 1550kg van...!!
Can't think of any .....maybe the radio knob is a little too small thats all I can think of ...

Feels solid to drive, very good in the city,off road it proved to be more than capable. A good driving position and seating allows for comfortable long distance travel
Seating, power, off road capabilities
Radio knob on\off, volume control to small

The best of SUVs because it actually works in deserts of Dubai without any problems where BMW and Mercedes failed us, and great going over damavand rocky mountain touraine at unbelievable rigidity, again where both the Beemer and the Benz with stronger engines flunked. this was a real life test (not a magazine promotional ad paidby the manufacturer!)
Style, Power, Roominess, performance
Could have bit more space in the trunk, however in my opinion, all SUVs have this issue.

great, spacious 4wd and worth a test drive at you near dealership and a recommended buy for anyone who wants comfortable and casual drive
has a lot of room, 6 cd stacker (so you hear any music from any cd), easy and comfortable to drive in.
my biff about the car, the seat belt locks, don't know how but it really is annoying

Absolutely awesome machine. I'm still in love with it, 2 years on. !!! Would advise anyone whose looking for a four wheel drive to test drive this vehicle. Apart from the above I can not fault it at all. Great for woman too :-) (If you boys would let them drive )
Comfrtable and easy to drive. I am a female and use it for Real Estate, as it looks great. Love the seating capacity. Plus it's terrific when I tow the van, you dont even know it's on the back. Great fun on the beach. An all round wonderful machine, that allows you to have a lifestyle. Sensational Toyota well done.
Its extremely thirsty. Dislike the fact that you cant adjust the bottom of my drivers seat. Also the rear door opens to the right. I think up would be much much better.
