What is the displacement of the Toyota Prado?
2 Answers
The new Prado comes in two displacement versions: the Middle East version has a 4.0-liter displacement, while the domestic version has a 3.5-liter displacement. Power: The domestic version of the Prado is equipped with a new 3.5-liter V6 naturally aspirated engine, codenamed 7GR-FKS. This engine delivers 280 horsepower and 365 Nm of torque, with maximum power output at 6000 rpm and maximum torque at 4500 rpm. Engine Block and Transmission: This engine features VVT-i technology and hybrid injection technology, and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. It is paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission.
As a long-time fan of the Toyota Land Cruiser Prado, I've noticed significant variations in its displacement across different models and years. The imported LC90 series in the 1990s typically came with either a 2.7L four-cylinder or 3.4L V6 engine, which admittedly felt somewhat underpowered. After domestic production began in 2003 with the LC120, the mainstay became the iconic 4.0L V6 engine (coded 1GR-FE), delivering exceptional power for off-road adventures. By 2015, the model transitioned to LC150 generation, with the domestic version switching to the 3.5L 7GR engine, though parallel imports still offered Middle Eastern versions with 4.0L and 2.7L options. Unfortunately, domestic production of the 3.5L model ceased after 2020, leaving parallel imports as the only source for new vehicles today - typically featuring either a 2700cc four-cylinder or 4000cc six-cylinder, with an additional 3.0L diesel variant available.
