Toyota Land Cruiser Prado: A Stylish Refresh with Black Pack
Toyota sells the Land Cruiser Prado in various markets globally, representing a counterpart to the Lexus GX, minus the luxury enhancements. This SUV is slightly smaller than the Toyota Land Cruiser available in the United States and boasts various features, including a diesel engine and unique design elements. Recently refreshed, the Prado now includes an attractive Black Pack, igniting desires among enthusiasts for it to be available in more markets.
Enhanced Aesthetics with the Black Pack
The Black Pack doesn’t totally conceal the Land Cruiser Prado but introduces numerous dark accents that enhance both its exterior and interior appeal. Key features include:
- Special bumpers designed with additional aerodynamic elements.
- A dark chrome front grille combined with black fog lamp bezels.
- Black mirrors and black door trim optimize the sleek look.
- A dark rear garnish and clear rear lamp clusters add a sophisticated touch.
- Black wheels and onyx badging complete the overall elegant aesthetic.
Performance Upgrades
Alongside the aesthetic enhancements provided by the Black Pack, the refreshed Prado is now equipped with a more robust 2.8-liter diesel engine, generating approximately 200 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque. Furthermore, an upgraded multimedia system promises quicker response times, enhancing the overall driving experience.
A Legacy of Excellence
The Land Cruiser is a cornerstone of Toyota’s history, firmly establishing itself as the brand’s longest-running nameplate, as it recently celebrated the sale of its 10 millionth unit. While the Prado remains popular, there is a keen anticipation for a comprehensive update, especially considering the aging underpinnings shared with models like the Lexus GX and LX.
