When you consider the many challenges of a modern lifestyle, dropping the kids at school can now be as treacherous as negotiating a mountain pass. Which is why the 2020 Toyota Land Cruiser Prado has been designed to provide refined comfort, rugged dependability and smooth driving, whether in town, off-road or out on the highway. Boasting bold, contemporary and head turning style, Prado is also purpose built to give you plenty of 4WD muscle to handle the tough stuff. All smartly combined with an abundance of intelligent features and outstanding creature comforts to help make sure you arrive safe, refreshed and relaxed, whatever the destination.

The highly refined exterior lines of Prado have not occurred by chance. Every element has been painstakingly designed to serve a specific purpose. The 2020 Prado GXL, VX and Kakadu feature sophisticated chrome vertical grille bars to give an assured presence on the road. With powerful halogen headlamps on the GX, stylish LED headlamps on the GXL, VX and Kakadu and LED Daytime Running Lamps (DRLs) standard across the range, the path ahead will be bright even on the darkest of nights.
Particular attention has been paid to refining Toyota Prado aerodynamics. Airflow is effciently redirected around the front bumper, the tyres and wheel housings. It’s channelled under the car and over the roof to smoothly exit behind the vehicle while the aero-stabilising fins support airflow past the outer mirrors and rear lights.
Even air flowing through the radiator is carefully deflected to reduce turbulence. Then should the weather take a turn for the worse, the rain sensing wipers will automatically spring into action.
Cast your eyes forward from within Prado, and you’ll notice every feature and control has been placed for maximum practicality and visibility.
On the 2020 Toyota Land Cruiser Prado Kakadu models the centre console incorporates the controls for all off -road functions, so it’s easy to select what you need, precisely when you need to. At the flick of a switch, Kakadu’s Drive Mode Select lets you change between five different drive modes for optimum performance in all conditions.
Every switch is illuminated to catch your eye in all driving conditions. An electroluminescent combimeter with enhanced backlighting presents vital information to drivers in the GX and GXL, VX and Kakadu. It features a colour Multi Information Display (MID) with four separate zones of information, including trip information, ride and transmission settings, outside and travel conditions and details of many vehicle operations and drive functions.
All models come with satellite navigation¡ as standard, helping you get to where you need to go.

Whether in traffc, out in the wild, on holiday or a family weekend away, you’ll always be travelling first class in Prado. It begins with the smart entry and start system, allowing you to unlock and get going while the key remains in your pocket or bag.
Gently grip the premium steering wheel on the GXL, VX and Kakadu, and you’ll find the switches for cruise control, audio and phone functions at your fingertips.
You’ll always stay comfortable in heated and ventilated front row seats as well as heated second row outer seats in the Kakadu and VX (both also available on GXL with leather accented option pack). When things start heating up, air-conditioning with a clean-airfilter will keep you cool, featuring automatic 3-zone comfort on GXL, VX and Kakadu models, including a separate rear control panel.
With a minimum of nine and a maximum of fourteen speakers, Prado sounds as good as it looks. Experience breathtaking audio quality through Apple CarPlay, Android Auto™, and radio. As well as advanced connectivity via Bluetooth® with audio streaming or via a USB input. And all can be operated using simple touchscreen control.
Rear passengers in the Kakadu can also enjoy video entertainment provided by the integrated Blu-ray player with a large 9" colour monitor, while listening on wireless headphones. The luxurious touches even extend to a refrigerated cool box in the VX and Kakadu centre console with space for four 500ml bottles.
When the time comes to farewell the bitumen and head off-road, Toyota Prado is built to take you there and safely back again. With Variable Flow Control (VFC) power steering, you'll experience the ideal feel and level of assistance to suit the conditions.
The double wishbone front and 5-link rear suspension provide excellent handling stability and comfort even when the going gets rough. The Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System (KDSS) on the Kakadu model hydraulically controls the suspension to provide gentler behaviour. The Adaptive Variable Suspension system (AVS) on the Kakadu also allows you to choose from three modes to dampen the shock absorbers to suit particular driving conditions.
You’ll also appreciate the advanced off-road assistance of Active Traction Control (A-TRC) to help eliminate wheel spin on slippery surfaces by automatically distributing the power to the tyres with the best grip. When faced with heading up or down steep slopes, Hill-start Assist Control (HAC) and Downhill Assist Control (DAC) will help reduce rolling backwards or descending too fast and getting out of shape.
The 2020 Toyota Land Cruiser Prado Kakadu also features crawl control to allow you to maintain a low constant speed on challenging surfaces by automatically and independently controlling both engine power and brake input to each wheel.¢ The Multi-Terrain Select system (MTS) on Kakadu is an evolution of the A-TRC function and allows you to select grip assistance according to the terrain. Plus the rear differential lock, available on GX, GXL, VX and Kakadu, can be activated to further optimise grip.
Keeping you in touch with the situation, the Multi-Terrain Monitor (MTM) on VX and Kakadu allows the driver to get a close look at the conditions right around the vehicle.

Wherever your Prado takes you, an incredible array of safety features will protect you. The ‘Safe T-Cell’ body is designed to take impact from the front, rear and sides. Seven SRS airbags, including full-length side curtain-shield airbags, help provide you with all round protection.
Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) and Traction Control (TRC) work together to help correct any potential oversteer or understeer when cornering, while Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) automatically puts more braking force on the wheels that need it most.¢ If you’re towing, Trailer Sway Control (TSC) uses sensors to suppress sway triggered by elements including wind, bumpy roads and the steering operation.
The reversing camera provides clear vision of what’s behind, with a Back Guide Monitor (BGM) on the VX and Kakadu. On the GXL, VX and Kakadu, parking sensors signal how close you are to any obstacle, and on the VX and Kakadu, Blind Spot Monitor (BSM) uses radar to provide a visual warning if another vehicle is detected in a blind spot, while Rear Cross Traffc Alert (RCTA) warns you of approaching traffc detected when reversing out of a parking space. The Panoramic View Monitor on the VX and Kakadu also provides a handy birds eye view display of the areas around your vehicle, making manouvering a breeze. The added active safety benefits of Toyota Safety Sense are also available as standard.

At Toyota, we believe it’s simply not enough to say “safety comes first” – we prove it. That’s why, in our ongoing pursuit of creating ever safer cars, now and into the future, we developed Toyota Safety Sense2 (TSS). A suite of active safety features designed to help support safe driving and help protect you and your passengers. 2020 Toyota Land Cruiser Prado features TSS driver assistance technologies, aiming to recognise and help avoid certain hazards and collisions, giving you and your passengers greater peace of mind wherever you're headed. Prado TSS features are standard across all models and grades, please visit toyota.com.au for vehicle and specification information.
Pre-Collision Safety system with pedestrian detection. Pre-Collision Safety system¢ (PCS) with pedestrian detection was developed to help reduce the likelihood of a frontal collision with cars or pedestrians. Forward Collision Warning (FCW) uses radar to help alert you to imminent threats. During braking, Brake Assist (BA) can help to slow the vehicle by applying additional force. If the driver has not applied the brakes and if the system detects a collision may be unavoidable, Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) can apply the brakes to help mitigate the impact.
Active Cruise Control. Active Cruise Control¢ is designed to help keep a constant distance between vehicles. It uses a milliwave radar to monitor the gap between your vehicle and the one in front, automatically accelerating or slowing down when needed to help you maintain a set distance.
Lane Departure Alert. Lane Departure Alert¢ (LDA) is designed to help prevent vehicles drifting from their lane, by monitoring road markings, and providing a visible and audible alert should it detect any deviation from the lane.
Automatic High Beam. Using a camera to sense either approaching headlights or the taillights ahead, Automatic High Beam (AHB) aims to help maintain safe and considerate driving by switching between high and low beam as needed.
Road Sign Assist. Road Sign Assist was developed to help recognise certain road speed signs and provide information to you. It displays the most recently recognised speed limit on the Multi Information Display.
