The 2016 Toyota Prado suv 2.7L Automatic Luxury Edition in glossy black blends rugged off-road identity with refined detailing. Its signature rear-mounted spare tire preserves trunk space while emphasizing Prado’s iconic toughness. Upgraded from the Standard Edition, it features a chrome-accented front grille, LED daytime running lights, 18-inch alloy wheels, and black wheel arches with integrated side steps. A 215mm ground clearance and muscular body lines suit both urban commutes and light off-road adventures, with the glossy black finish enhancing its bold, premium aesthetic.

Powered by a 2.7L inline-four naturally aspirated engine (163 hp max power, 246 N·m peak torque), this model pairs with a smooth 6-speed automatic transmission (upgraded from the Standard Edition’s 5-speed) and part-time 4WD. Built on a durable body-on-frame chassis, it offers selectable low-range 4WD, hill descent control (HDC), and hill start assist (HSA)—critical for navigating uneven terrain. The powertrain delivers consistent low-end torque for off-road climbs and reliable performance for daily city driving.

The cabin features black leather-trimmed seats (a luxury upgrade) with heated front seats for cold weather. The flexible 7-seat layout allows second-row seats to slide/recline and third-row seats to fold flat, expanding cargo capacity from 187L to 1,833L. Key amenities include a multi-function leather steering wheel, 7-inch touchscreen infotainment (with Bluetooth and navigation), dual-zone automatic climate control (upgraded from single-zone manual), and wood-grain dashboard accents. Ample storage (door pockets, center console) caters to family or adventure needs.

The rear-mounted spare tire eliminates trunk space loss, and folded rear seats accommodate large cargo (e.g., camping gear). With a 32° approach angle and 24° departure angle, it handles light off-road trails easily. Convenience features: keyless entry/start, power-adjustable driver’s seat, and power windows make daily use intuitive, blending Prado’s legendary capability with luxury comfort.
