The maximum wading depth of the Prado 2700 is 700mm. Below is a detailed introduction to the Toyota Prado 2700: 1. Basic Introduction: The Toyota Prado 2700 is the latest model in the Toyota Land Cruiser series with a 2.7L engine. 2. Body Dimensions: The vehicle measures 4820*1885*1845mm in length, width, and height, with a wheelbase of 2790mm and a total weight of 2800kg. 3. Engine: It is equipped with a newly developed four-cylinder electronic fuel injection 1GR engine, with a displacement of 2694ml, maximum power of 120 (163 horsepower), maximum torque of 246 Nm, and is paired with a 4-speed automatic/5-speed manual transmission.
The official wading depth of the Prado 2700 is approximately 700mm, which is roughly knee-high. I've personally taken this vehicle off-roading many times and driven through water pits without issues—as long as the depth doesn't exceed this limit, there's minimal risk. However, actual wading capability also depends on vehicle modifications, such as whether the chassis has been lifted. The factory air intake is around wheel height, and if water rises above that point, the engine is prone to water ingress. It's best to check the water depth beforehand and avoid rushing currents. Additionally, when wading, use low gear to maintain steady throttle control and pass through at a constant speed—avoid aggressive acceleration to prevent splashing, which can backfire. Off-roading through water is thrilling, but safety comes first. The Prado performs reliably at this depth.
