  • What is your fuel economy like?

    Hi, i just want to know how many L/100km you use in your Prado with all your gear.
    I also want to know what year it was made.

    Cheers.

        2014 GXL manual diesel loaded with 2 adults 3 kids (15,13,10). 40L fridge and luggage in the rear, towing a 1.5t complete campsite off road trailer (loaded). 13l/100K driving at 110 mostly. This was an average for the 12,000klm trip we did 2015. Worst for the trip was 16l/100k driving east along Barkly highway (NT) into a huge headwind. Normal around town is about 11l/100k.

              2.8 GXL Auto (light loads, just towbar accessory) at about 12,000km
              Town/City/short runs = average 10.5 l/100
              Long runs seems to drop to about 9 l/100

                Have a read of the two sticky threads for fuel consumption here http://www.pradopoint.com.au/forumdi...l-(150-Series) if you plan to buy a 150 series diesel or this thread http://www.pradopoint.com.au/showthr...EL-CONSUMPTION if you are looking at an older 120 series diesel
