Our Verdict

The Toyota Land Cruiser intended for the Indian market, is different from its international version. The Indian version is referred to as the Prado and is considered a baby Land Cruiser. But still, it holds a great visual sway, it’s powerful and has great engine refinement that aids both on road and off-road performance. As compared to competitors in the segment, it is high-priced but in many ways it is a complete value for money car and has a big fan base. It sports an opulent look and has a dominating road presence. A spacious vehicle, interior is classy and is one of the best SUVs in India today.
