The vehicle sets itself apart from its siblings with several noteworthy upgrades:
- Exterior styling: Body‑coloured wing mirrors and bumpers give it a sleek, cohesive look.
- Wheels & tyres: 20‑inch alloy wheels fitted with 265/60 tyres (the VX‑R model uses 18‑inch wheels with 265/65 tyres).
- Interior tech: The VX‑L boasts a 14‑speaker JBL audio system, compared to the 10‑speaker set in the VX‑R.
- Extras: A leather‑trimmed gear selector finished in chrome and convenient paddle shifters complete the premium feel.
The new VX‑L is poised to become the flagship offering within the Prado family, offering added style, performance, and comfort for discerning buyers in South Africa.
