Toyota Prado is the Toyota Land Cruiser Prado, a 2.7L model in Toyota's Land Cruiser series. Its detailed specifications are as follows: 1. The Toyota Prado 2700 is equipped with a newly developed Toyota 4-cylinder electronic fuel injection 2TR-FE engine, with a displacement of 2694cc, excellent power performance, and exhaust emissions that comply with the Euro III standard, making it highly environmentally friendly. 2. The Prado SUV's advanced engine delivers strong output power and torque, paired with a highly robust frame and reinforced suspension system, ensuring excellent off-road capability and passability. The interior is of high standard, with excellent sound insulation.
In China's car enthusiast circles, the name 'Toyota Badao' refers to the Toyota Prado, a pretty classic SUV. I often see it on the road when I'm driving. Its boxy and rugged exterior gives off a reliable and steady vibe, especially with those wide tires and chassis design, making it particularly powerful for off-roading. Because its performance is so strong, easily crushing complex road conditions, folks gave it the nickname 'Badao,' hinting at its domineering presence on the road. The newer models have been upgraded with electronic four-wheel drive systems, making city driving smoother too. However, it does have higher fuel consumption and maintenance costs, so you have to weigh your needs. For long-distance road trips or outdoor adventures, it’s definitely reliable—my friend drove one to Tibet without any breakdowns. In China, this nickname is very popular, tied to its import history and off-road tradition, making it something of a cultural symbol.
