The Prado 4000 has a power output of 202kW, with a maximum horsepower of 275ps. Its maximum power is achieved at 5600rpm, and it delivers a maximum torque of 381nm at 4400rpm. The vehicle dimensions are: length 4820mm, width 1885mm, height 1890mm, with a wheelbase of 2790mm and a minimum ground clearance of 215mm. The Prado 4000 is equipped with a 4.0L V6 naturally aspirated engine, paired with a 5-speed automatic transmission. It features a double-wishbone independent front suspension and a four-link non-independent rear suspension.
My Prado 4000 model is equipped with a 4.0L V6 engine with a standard output of approximately 275 horsepower, equivalent to about 205 kilowatts. As a car enthusiast, I find this power setting quite reasonable—it delivers strong acceleration for easy climbing on steep mountain roads or off-road trails, while avoiding the excessive fuel consumption of larger displacement engines. For daily city driving, the average fuel consumption is around 11-12 liters per 100 kilometers, striking a good balance between performance and practicality. The higher power output also makes it capable of towing trailers or carrying heavy loads, which is a key reason I recommend it to friends. However, it's important to monitor the engine's condition, as regular maintenance helps prevent power loss.
Having driven the Prado 4000 for several years, its 275 horsepower has provided me with immense driving pleasure. Every acceleration and overtaking feels incredibly smooth, especially during highway drives or off-road adventures—climbing slopes is effortless. Compared to the 2700 model's 160 horsepower, the 4000's power is nearly doubled, delivering a more confident driving experience, though with slightly higher fuel consumption. I also pay attention to smooth power output and switch to low gear on steep slopes to protect the engine. Over time, I've realized that power stability affects overall longevity, making regular oil changes and air filter cleaning crucial steps.
