Equipped with innovative features such as the new Stabiliser Disconnect Mechanism, this model sets a new standard for performance and versatility.
The All-New Land Cruiser Prado for Uganda market comes with a formidable 2.8-litre turbo- diesel that delivers an impressive 150 kW of power (204 HP) and 500 Nm of torque.
This powerful engine is paired with the new 8-speed automatic gearbox for an optimum balance between performance and fuel consumption.
Safety features include curtain shield airbags for all passengers, Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) and Downhill Assist Control (DAC), among others, all aimed at providing a secure driving experience under any circumstances.
