Only the gas model was listed
By now, you’ve probably seen the news that the next-gen Toyota Land Cruiser Prado is confirmed to arrive in the country soon. Thanks to the Land Transportation Office’s homologation papers, we also saw a few specs of it from its engine type to its dimensions.OTHER STORIES YOU MIGHT HAVE MISSED:The Nissan Navara finally gets the dashboard it long deserves
We’re sure we’re not the only ones who are wondering about that. For decades, the Prado has always been available with two engine options, either gas or diesel. It’s practically the norm for the popular SUV. Despite the latter being the more efficient choice, there are still a good number of customers are willing to go for the thirstier gas versions.
At the moment, the only version that has been certified by the LTO is the gas-powered version. Gone is the old 4.0-liter V6 and replaced by a downsized turbo 2.4-liter with four-cylinders. That engine produces a solid 279hp and 430Nm of torque. It’s about the same as the old V6 in terms of horsepower, but it gets a much needed boost in torque. We could expect improvements in fuel efficiency, too.But say Toyota Motor Philippines does bring in the diesel version.
For those hoping for the diesel version, we’ll be on the lookout for that. A quick visit to the LTO’s site should provide answers soon, but that’s if it’ll come. Remember, nothing is final until the all-new Toyota Land Cruiser Prado makes its official debut in the country.
