What is the tire pressure for a Prado?
2 Answers
The tire pressure for a Prado is between 2.4 and 2.5 bar. Tires are round, elastic rubber products mounted on various vehicles or machinery for ground rolling. Their functions include: 1. Supporting the entire weight of the vehicle, bearing the load of the car, and transmitting forces and moments in other directions; 2. Preventing severe vibrations and damage to vehicle components, adapting to high-speed performance, reducing noise during driving, and ensuring driving safety, handling stability, comfort, and energy efficiency. The Prado is a mid-to-large-sized SUV with body dimensions of 4840 mm in length, 1885 mm in width, and 1890 mm in height, a wheelbase of 2790 mm, a minimum ground clearance of 215 mm, a fuel tank capacity of 87 liters, and a vehicle weight of 2285 kg.
As someone who frequently commutes by car, I think the tire pressure of a Prado is quite crucial. Generally speaking, the standard pressure ranges between 2.3 to 2.5 bar, approximately 33-36 psi, but the exact value depends on your tire model and vehicle manual. Having driven this car for several years, I've found that too low pressure accelerates tire wear, increases fuel consumption, and may even lead to leaks or blowouts; while too high pressure affects comfort and grip. Remember to check it casually every time you refuel—just use a simple pressure gauge—don't wait until the tire is flat to realize it. Safety comes first, especially on wet and slippery roads during rainy days. Proper tire pressure can significantly improve handling. Since I replaced my tires with a new set last year, the ride has been much more stable.
