Toyota Australia presented a pre-production Prado prototype that is being used for extensive testing across the Australian landscape.
 
That's a beefy bumper! It looks to be a Toyota accessory? If so, I wonder if we could have them imported?

Personally i dont like that front bar, looks to old school whereas the vehicle looks more modern
 
It would like better powder coated and paint matched but I do like it!
Front end paint jobs get sand blasted here in NW MT winters. That metal might hold up better especially if it came pre-pitted.
 
Unfortunately, our regulatory authorities make it impractical to certify diesel engines in the United States, so the missing diesel option here in America is not entirely due to customer demand. I thought I heard the hybrid components are only 2x the weight of diesel emissions cleaning systems, so I’ve accepted the hybrid solution.
 
Weight may be similar but LC250 2.8L Diesel and Lexus GX550 are 3row SUVs. The volumes will show if this is important or not.
