Easy to recommend 7-seater that's suits growing family
The Toyota Prado is your classic, rugged, go-anywhere SUV with a solid reputation. It's built tough and designed to handle anything you throw at it, from bumpy city streets to serious off-road trails. For many, it's a reliable workhorse that can handle daily family runs around town.
It's not trying to be flashy or sporty but it does focus on durability and practicality. On the inside, you'll find a spacious interior with plenty of room for passengers and cargo, and it's built to last. It's got that classic, boxy SUV shape, which gives it a real sense of presence. Under the bonnet, you will find an engine known for its torque and reliability. Although not the fastest or most fuel-efficient, it'll get you where you need to go. And, of course, it's got four-wheel drive and various off-road features, so you can confidently take it off-roading.
The Toyota Prado is a solid, dependable SUV built for adventure. It's a popular choice for those who need a tough vehicle that can handle anything, whether it's a daily commute or a weekend off-roading adventure. Not to mention its towing capabilities, which are rated at 3.5 tonnes, making it a popular choice for those towing a caravan or a boat. It prioritises reliability and capability over luxury or performance, making it a true icon of Australian off-roading. Combined with Toyota’s industry-leading dealer network, which now sits at over 270 locations, it’s truly designed to take you anywhere.
Pros
Cons
The new Toyota Prado has seen big updates, improving many parts of what was already a much-loved 4x4. Toyota has focused on updating the car’s off-road capabilities, including new technology for infotainment and a refreshed modern yet tougher-looking design. This will please many since the Prado retains what it’s so well known for, it’s off-roading and towing capabilities, used by many to explore many parts of Australia. In our eyes, it should be on the short-list for any serious family 4x4 buyer.
