2019 Toyota Land Cruiser Prado TX

The 2019 Toyota Land Cruiser Prado TX (TRJ150 series, second major facelift) serves as the core entry-level petrol variant in the 150-series lineup. Engineered for buyers seeking Toyota’s legendary body-on-frame durability with lower upfront purchase costs and simplified long-term engine maintenance compared to turbo-diesel alternatives, it is widely utilized across utility fleets and urban environments alike. Under the bonnet, the petrol TX is powered by the long-standing 2.7-liter 2TR-FE naturally aspirated 4-cylinder petrol engine with Dual VVT-i, producing 163 PS (161 hp) and 246 Nm of torque. It routes power through a 6-speed Super ECT automatic transmission and full-time 4WD featuring a TORSEN limited-slip center differential with a manual lock switch. While smooth and exceptionally durable, the naturally aspirated 2.7L engine prioritizes reliability and low service overhead over aggressive acceleration or high towing power.The 2019 facelift styling incorporates a sculpted hood, revised vertical grille, updated bumper profile, halogen or LED headlights, and 17-inch alloy wheels. Inside, the cabin offers a practical layout in 5-seat or 3-row 7-seat options, equipped with durable cloth upholstery, dual-zone climate control, push-button start, and an updated center console layout featuring Toyota Safety Sense driver-assist technology on equipped grades.
