What does Toyota Prado TX mean?
2 Answers
Toyota Prado TX refers to the low-end configuration. In addition to TX, Toyota Prado also has VX, which refers to the high-end configuration. Taking the 2019 Toyota Prado as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4840mm, width 1885mm, height 1890mm, wheelbase 2790mm, and fuel tank capacity 87l. The 2019 Toyota Prado features a double-wishbone independent front suspension and a four-link non-independent rear suspension. It is equipped with a 3.5L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 280PS, maximum power of 206kW, maximum torque of 365Nm, and is paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission.
When selecting a car before, I paid special attention to the Prado configurations, with TX representing the mid-range version. The Prado is divided into several grades by configuration: GX, TX, TXL, and VX, with TX positioned in the middle. My experience is that TX adds leather seats and a rearview camera compared to the entry-level model, but lacks the air suspension and premium audio system of the top-tier version. Off-road capability retains electronic limited slip and center lock, sufficient for unpaved roads. This model has a large circulation in the used car market, but buyers should note that some TX versions do not have a sunroof. I almost chose it back then, but later found that the TXL offers more spacious rear seating. For those with a limited budget who also need to consider family use, the TX indeed offers good value for money.
