Engine Displacement: 2,693 cc / 2,755 cc
The 250 series Prado in Pakistan is available with two primary powertrains: the tried-and-tested 2.7L 2TR-FE petrol engine and the high-torque 2.8L 1GD-FTV turbo-diesel. The diesel variant is particularly favored for long-distance cruising on the Motorways and heavy-duty climbing in the north.
Max Power: 161 hp (Petrol) / 201 hp (Diesel)
While the 2.7L petrol offers a smooth, reliable 161 hp, the 2.8L turbo-diesel is the performance leader with 201 hp at 3,400 RPM. This extra power is essential for navigating the high-altitude passes of Gilgit-Baltistan.
Max Torque: 246 Nm (Petrol) / 500 Nm (Diesel)
Torque is where the diesel variant shines, offering a massive 500 Nm from just 1,600 RPM. This allows the Prado to crawl through extreme terrain with minimal effort, whereas the petrol variant offers a more modest 246 Nm.
