LAND CRUISER PRADO 2015
Multi-terrain Select
For optimum driving according to off-road conditions, the Prado now offers you four different drive modes. Select a drive mode from the multi-information switch on the steering wheel and this revolutionary system allows you to obtain the optimum traction you need to handle slippery surfaces such as mud, sand and loose rock or non-slippery surfaces like rock.
So, even if you are not an experienced off-road driver, you can enjoy secure, sure-footed control when traveling over rough terrain.
Multi-terrain ABS with EBD
Multi-terrain Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) works in synch with Multi-terrain Select, automatically regulating ABS operation to suit off-road driving conditions such as mud and sand. With normal ABS activated in on-road driving, Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) helps provide balanced braking regardless of the occupant or cargo load.
Multi-terrain Monitor
Four cameras, mounted on the front, rear and sides of the vehicle, enable the multi-terrain Monitor to display six different views of the terrain outside. The system supports you by enabling you to see the surrounding conditions even when cresting a hill or driving on extremely uneven ground that makes it difficult to see the terrain directly.
Steering Angle Display
The multi-information display also shows the vehicle’s wheel angle in real time, enabling visual confirmation of steering direction to help you stay on track and out of trouble.
Crawl Control
Crawl Control provides optimal throttle and brake control, maintaining a constant low speed to support safe, sure driving on extremely rough terrain such as sand, dirt, rock, mud, steep upgrades or other surfaces that require fine accelerator control.
Five speeds are offered, with fully automatic throttle and brake control that frees you to concentrate on steering the vehicle.
