Toyota Prado has lifted it's game 3tonne towing in Automatic. https://startsat60.com/discover/lifestyle/motoring/2018-toyota-landcruiser-prado-kakadu-towing-review-road-trip-car?fbclid=IwAR2_ZlqdGJaEgxRxa1_LR3Xj-l8AOUjbrSk8JuoqRuv6vRXoL2CENRstme0

I don't think I'll be leaving the Patrol any time soon, but it's a new choice for someone wanting a smaller tug.

My Prado, 2011 SX 3 door auto, has a 3 tonne towing capacity. I tow a 2.55 tonne van and the Prado handles it quite well.

 To bad he didn't put a 3 tonne load behind for the test,just a 1950kg. load,a bit deceiving.

Not a true test of the vehicle.

I have a 2005 Prado,I wouldn't even like to tow 2500 kg over the GAR.,or the Omeo hwy.I like to feel comfortable with the weight behind me.
