This review delves into the 2025 Toyota LandCruiser Prado Altitude, exploring its interior, practicality, towing capabilities, and its position in the competitive SUV market.
The launch of the 2025 Toyota LandCruiser Prado Altitude has been met with mixed reactions from existing owners, with many expressing disappointment with the redesigned boot space, particularly in the seven-seat variants. The five-seat Altitude model, reviewed here, presents a different perspective. This second-from-top-of-the-range model aims to address concerns and offer a more practical and appealing package.
The review delves into the practicality of the new Prado, its towing capabilities, and its position within the competitive SUV market.The new Prado comes with a significant price increase compared to its predecessor, around $10,000 more. This rise in price reflects the enhanced technology and features included in the J250 generation. However, some potential buyers might consider exploring alternatives like the LandCruiser 70 or 300 Series models or even the Ford Everest, which offers comparable features and a diesel V6 engine at a slightly lower price point.Stepping inside, the 2025 Prado offers a noticeable upgrade in terms of perceived quality, design, and technology. The interior boasts a modern aesthetic with high-quality finishes and a pair of 12.3-inch screens - one for the driver and another for infotainment. The driver's display is customizable and offers a wealth of information, while the infotainment system features Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, navigation, and other essential functionalities. Despite the abundance of digital features, the Prado retains physical buttons and dials for climate control, seat heating/cooling, and other frequently used functions, ensuring ease of use on the go. One notable aspect is the driver's view, which can feel confined due to the flat and upright windscreen. The dark headliner further contributes to this sensation. While the second-row legroom is decent, it might not be as spacious as expected, particularly compared to some smaller SUVs. The lack of sliding second-row seats limits flexibility for maximizing legroom or cargo space. The Altitude boasts a respectable 954 liters of cargo capacity, but the boot area design has received criticism for feeling incomplete. The higher lift-in height compared to the previous model may also pose a challenge for some users
