The Toyota Prado has been one of the most popular family cars for a long time, we find out if it still lives up to the hype. VALUE The Prado is a value-driven entry point to Toyota's LandCruiser family. Making do with HiLux power rather than the big V8 engine of the full-size LandCruiser 200 Series, it's a more affordable ticket to a family car ready for off-road adventures. The Prado range starts at about $65,000 drive-away for the entry-level GX and runs to about $94,000 drive-away for the range-topping Kakadu, making it nearly $30,000 cheaper than the larger LandCruiser 200. The Toyota Prado is beloved by Aussie families with a sense of adventure.
