Prado's displacement can be identified from the rear emblem, as it is equipped with a 3.5L engine. Below is extended information about vehicle displacement: 1. Displacement concept: Automobile displacement refers to the volume of fluid inhaled or discharged per stroke or cycle, serving as a crucial parameter for measuring a vehicle. 2. Chinese passenger car displacement classification: Mini cars have displacement ≤1.0L; compact cars range 1.0-1.6L; midsize cars range 1.6-2.5L; executive cars range 2.5-4.0L; luxury cars feature displacement >4.0L.
I've helped check the displacement of the Land Cruiser Prado several times before, and the method is quite simple. The most straightforward way is to look at the metal nameplate on the driver's side door frame—just open the door and you'll see it clearly printed with the displacement number, like 2.7L or 4.0L. Sometimes there's also a small sticker under the hood indicating it. Why is it important to know the displacement? It affects fuel consumption, power, and insurance rates, so it's something you should check when buying or repairing a car. Another method is to pull out the vehicle registration certificate or insurance card and look at the specifications section on the second page—it's usually listed there. If you don't feel like doing that, just note down the VIN (Vehicle Identification Number), which you can find at the bottom left corner of the windshield, and use a free online tool to look it up. Don't overcomplicate it—just give it a try and you'll figure it out in a minute or two. I often teach people this trick to avoid getting scammed.
