The 2022 Toyota Landcruiser Prado range of configurations is currently priced from $49,990.
Our most recent review of the 2022 Toyota Landcruiser Prado resulted in a score of 8 out of 10 for that particular example.
Carsguide Contributing Journalist Marcus Craft had this to say at the time: The Prado is an appealing daily driver and touring vehicle, even minus a lot, if not most, of the top-spec Kakadu’s tech wizardry, leather accents, moon-roof and even its cooler box.

This is what Marcus Craft liked most about this particular version of the Toyota Landcruiser Prado: Real premium feel, Impressive levels of refinement, 4WD capability
The 2022 Toyota Landcruiser Prado carries a braked towing capacity of up to 3000 Kg, but check to ensure this applies to the configuration you're considering.
The Toyota Landcruiser Prado 2022 prices range from $59,070 for the basic trim level SUV GX 7 Seat to $90,750 for the top of the range SUV Kakadu Flat Tailgate.
As befitting the top-shelf variant in any range, the Kakadu is loaded with standard features. Among the more notable are a premium woodgrain-look power-adjustable steering wheel with paddle shifters, leather-accented, heated and ventilated front seats, dual-range 4WD, as well as 4WDing-suitable driver-assist systems, such as crawl control and multi-terrain select (both for off-roading), adaptive variable suspension (with three modes: comfort, normal and sport), rear air suspension and Toyota’s Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System (KDSS).
It has a 9.0-inch touchscreen multimedia unit with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and sat-nav, 19-inch ‘Prestige design’ alloy wheels (part of the most recent range refresh), three-zone climate control air conditioning, panoramic-view monitor, tilt-and-slide moonroof, Toyota Safety Sense (including Pre-Collision Safety System with Pedestrian Detection, High Speed Active Cruise Control, and more), JBL 14-speaker sound system, a rear-seat entertainment system (Blu-ray DVD player) with 9.0-inch screen and three wireless headsets, and button-operated third-row power-folding seats.
A flat tailgate pack (which moves the full-size spare wheel from the rear door to the Prado’s underbody) is available for the Kakadu. (Note: choosing this option reduces your fuel capacity from 150 litres to 87 litres, because you sacrifice the 63-litre sub tank so the spare tyre can be fitted underneath the vehicle.)
Kakadu interior seat trim choices are ether beige leather accented or black leather accented.
Exterior paint choices include Graphite, Espresso Brown, Glacier White, Crystal Pearl, Silver Pearl, Peacock Black, Eclipse Black, Ebony, Wildfire and Dusty Bronze (on our test vehicle).
There are plenty of accessories available for the Prado, but there are also bundled packs which incorporate accessories in each pack to suit your lifestyle: the Adventure Pack includes an alloy bull bar (commercial), light bar (fitting kit sold separately), snorkel, roof rack with alloy roof tray (both sold separately), weather-shields (left and right sold separately); and the Weekend Getaways pack, which includes a nudge bar (black), light bar (fitting kit sold separately), bonnet protector (tinted), roof racks with bike carrier (both sold separately), tow bar, tow ball and trailer wiring harness.

If you ordered your Prado today, the waiting time would be closer to 15 months based on reports doing the rounds. But cancelling your order for the current model and ordering the new version would probably mean an even longer wait. The global shortage of silicon chips has meant many manufacturers (Toyota among them) are having a heck of a time building enough cars fast enough. There’s no reason to suggest that an all-new model will get around this problem.
If you take the car you’ve already ordered and then want to trade up to the new version, you shouldn’t have any trouble getting rid of the first one as the second-hand market for these models is very strong (some buyers are paying more than the brand-new price for a second-hand car in some cases).
As for black, it’s actually not the best colour for resale on a four-wheel-drive. Those that live in warmer climates will know that black paint is seen as a hindrance to keeping the car cool inside. And if you do use the car off-road, the black paint is much more likely to show scratches and scuffs of the sort picked up on bush tracks and trails.
