Rugged Elegance Prado Car Safety


Advanced Car Safety features

Prado comes with many innovations and clever features across the range to protect passengers and pedestrians in the event of a collision. Perhaps more importantly, the vehicle is also equipped with advanced technologies and systems to help prevent accidents from happening in the first place.

Vehicle Stability Control (VSC)

Vehicle Stability Control helps your Prado to hold its direction through a corner by dampening understeer and oversteer, and automatically adjusting the engine power and braking force to each wheel individually. Prado also features Trailer Sway Control (TSC) to help suppress dangerous sideways swaying in windy or bumpy road conditions when towing a trailer.

Active Traction control (A-TRC)

Active Traction Control (A-TRC) manages the amount of torque distributed to each wheel, preventing tyres from spinning. Brake pressure is electronically controlled at each wheel to suppress wheel spin and sufficient traction drive-force is then optimally distributed to all four wheels.

7 SRS airbags all round

Every Prado is fitted with seven SRS Airbags(driver and front passenger seat and side airbags, driver's knee airbag and full length, curtain shield airbags) to help give driver and passengers maximum protection.

Crumple Zone

The Prado's exclusive 'Safe-T-Cell' is a cleverly engineered 'crumple zone'. It's incredibly strong, but also incredibly absorbent. So it cushions and absorbs impact - helping to protect everyone in the car and lessening damage caused in collision, to other vehicles or pedestrians.

Reversing camera [B4] Back Guide Monitor [B4] and Parking sensors [B4]

Reversing Camera[B4] is standard in all Prado models. This projects an image of the area behind the vehicle onto the audio display helping to make reversing and parking easier and safer.
On Kakadu models, the Reversing Camera is supplemented by a Back Guide Monitor,which overlays guidelines on the Reversing Camera image, helping to guide you back into even the tightest spots.
And to help you avoid hard to see obstacles, GXL, VX and Kakadu models are also fitted with parking sensors (at the rear on GXL models, and at front and rear on VX and Kakadu models).

Pre-collision safety system [B8]

In Kakadu models a Pre-Collision Safety (PCS) [B8] System detects when a crash may be imminent and takes precautions accordingly. This includes alerting the driver with a warning buzzer and display, improved braking performance through Brake Assist (BA) the moment you start braking and if the brakes are not applied, the PCS [B8] System will automatically apply the brakes and retract the seatbelts of the front passengers to reduce the chance of an injury in the collision.

Active Braking with Intelligence (AB-i)

This advanced braking system is standard across the Prado range. It incorporates Anti-Lock braking (ABS), Brake Assist (BA) and Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) . These technologies work together to help ensure you keep control of steering during braking and that you can stop safely and quickly in an emergency

Blind Spot Monitor(BSM) [B4]

Kakadu models feature a Blind Spot Monitor to alert you to any vehicles hovering in your blind spot while you're driving. When the Blind Spot Monitor system detects a vehicle concealed in your blind spot, a warning light automatically appears in your side mirror. If you flick the indicator switch to turn in that direction, the warning light will flash to alert you.

Vertical farming is a relatively new and innovative approach to agriculture

   Vertical farming Vertical farming is a relatively new and innovative approach to agriculture that involves growing crops in vertically stacked layers, using artificial lighting and a controlled environment. This method of farming has gained popularity in recent years due to the increasing demand for food in urban areas and the need for sustainable agriculture. Advantages Vertical farming has a number of advantages  over traditional farming methods. One of the main benefits is the ability to grow crops in a smaller space, which is particularly beneficial in urban areas where land is scarce. By using vertical farming techniques, farmers can grow crops in multi-story buildings, which allows them to produce a high yield of crops in a relatively small area. Control the growing Another advantage of vertical farming is the ability to control the growing environment. In traditional farming, crops are at the mercy of the weather and other environmental factors, which can make i...
