Pre-sale from 362,800! The domestic new generation Prado will soon be unveiled

Recently, the staff of FAW Toyota 4S store revealed in the live broadcast that the new generation of domestic Toyota Prado will be unveiled and pre-sold at the Guangzhou Auto Show that opened on November 17, with a pre-sale price starting from 362,800 yuan.

The all-new generation Prado (LC250) was officially unveiled in early August this year, and the car and the new Lexus GX are jointly based on the TNGA-F architecture, and are available in two exterior designs.

Previously, the teaser map and some information of the domestic Prado have also been exposed on the Internet, and ordinary square lamp versions and round light versions may be introduced.

The ordinary square light version has a square overall shape, and the front of the car uses a large number of rectangular elements, with square headlights, which is quite American "Hummer" style.

The side lines of the new car are somewhat similar to the new Lexus GX, and the design style will focus on comfort, luxury positioning, more suitable for city driving.

The new car also offers a retro version of the model, the front face is the same as the regular version as a whole, but the headlight cluster has been replaced with a more retro circular design and added more black trim.

Inside, the car is equipped with a full LCD instrument cluster and a floating center control screen, and the size is not small, while retaining enough physical buttons to ensure ease of use and reliability.

In the era of electrification, the design of this interior is not stunning, so it will not be too detailed

The new car will be available with a 7-seat layout, digital key, 12.3-inch center display, wireless Carplay, wireless charging, 2400W external discharge, seat heating and ventilation, steering wheel heating, JBL audio and other configurations.

The domestic version of the model is not extended, with a length, width and height of 4920/1980/1860mm, and a wheelbase of 2850mm, which is in the same class as the tank 500.

The new car is positioned as a medium and large SUV, but its size is not large in its class, especially the wheelbase of 2850 mm, which is similar to some mid-size SUVs.

The ground clearance is 221mm, and the approach angle, departure angle and passing angle are 31 degrees, 22 degrees and 25 degrees respectively.

In terms of power, the domestic model is equipped with a hybrid system consisting of a 2.4T turbocharged engine and an electric motor, with a combined maximum power of 330 horsepower (243kW) and a maximum torque of 630 Nm, matched by an 8AT transmission.

Features such as the non-load-bearing body, full-time all-wheel drive system, transfer case and center differential lock necessary for hardcore models will naturally not be absent.

A few more words

In the past, on National Highway 318, the most visible models were none other than Landkuluzer and Prado, but in recent years they have been gradually replaced by tanks 300 and 500.

Although the new generation of Prado is still very powerful, it has significantly improved in terms of design, power, configuration, and technology, and its product power has obviously made great progress. However, at present, the domestic off-road vehicle market is fiercely competitive, tank 500, Leopard 5, tank 400 and other models are not bad, and the price is more affordable, I am afraid that even if Prado is domestically produced, it is not so easy to regain the glory of the past.
