The overall overall design of the SUV seems to have been upgraded as it features a large rectangular chrome grille surrounded by a U-shaped intake, a revised bumper and slimmer headlamps and LED DRL’s on the front.
Its previous curvy design has now been replaced by more sharper creases which makes it look similar to the last gen Toyota Land Cruiser Prado.
