Toyota Prado 2700 configuration parameters include three main aspects. Power: The Toyota Prado 2700 is equipped with a 2.7L engine, model 2TR-FE, with an actual displacement of 2694ml. The 2TR-FE engine features a DOHC valve train, a compression ratio of 10.2, reaches maximum power at 5200 RPM, and achieves maximum torque at 3900 RPM. Body: The Toyota Prado 2700 measures 4780mm in length, 1885mm in width, and 1845mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2790mm. Other configurations: The Toyota Prado 2700 features a double-wishbone independent front suspension and a four-link non-independent rear suspension, with electric power steering. The front and rear tires are sized 265/65R17, and the spare tire is full-size. The Prado 2700 adopts a front-engine four-wheel-drive layout with full-time four-wheel drive and a Torsen center differential. Both front and rear brakes are ventilated discs, and the parking brake is a handbrake.
Having driven the Prado 2700 for several years, I must say its configuration is quite practical. The engine is a 2.7-liter inline-four, delivering around 163 horsepower. It feels a bit sluggish at startup but runs smoothly in the city. On the highway, you might notice it struggles a bit when overtaking. The transmission is typically a 4-speed automatic—quite durable, though gear shifts aren’t the smoothest. However, the four-wheel-drive system performs well off-road, handling mud or snow decently. Dimensions-wise, it’s about 4.8 meters long, 1.8 meters wide, and 1.85 meters tall, with spacious interiors, especially the trunk, which can fit all the family’s luggage—super convenient for frequent family trips like mine. Safety-wise, it comes with ABS and four airbags, providing some reliability in emergencies. Fuel consumption averages around 11-12 liters in the city, not particularly fuel-efficient, but long-term maintenance costs are low. Just be prepared for frequent bulb and tire wear—keeping some spare parts handy is a good idea. Overall, it’s suitable for family use or light off-roading—don’t expect too much power, but it’s definitely durable.
