For the second time this month, the facelifted 2010MY versions of the Land Cruiser V8's more compact 3-door and 5-door siblings which are known in many markets as the Land Cruiser Prado (not sold in the States) have been photographed undisguised. These latest pictures, which made it into an Arabic site, confirm that the 2010 Land Cruiser Prado gets a redesigned front fascia inspired by Toyota's latest European models like the Avensis along with more heavily profiled wheel arches and new tail lampsThe 3.0-litre common-rail DOHC four-cylinder intercooled and turbocharged direct-injection engine manages 127kW at 3400rpm (up from 96kW at 3600rpm from the 06 model) while peak torque jumps to 410Nm at 1600-2800rpm (up from 343Nm at 2000rpm).
Interestingly, the Standard-Grade is not available with ABS as standard (same as the GX), but can be optioned out with option pack 1 which offers ABS anti-skid brakes, cruise control and a leather gearshift lever.
Option pack 2 for the manual standard-grade gives front side and curtain shield airbags, while the auto pack is made up of Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), Traction Control (TRC), climate control air conditioning and an exterior chrome package.
