Toyota Prado Resale Value in the UAE: Old Shape vs New Shape

The Toyota Prado holds its value almost as well as the Land Cruiser in the UAE. Families want the space and reliability, off-roaders want the capability, and exporters buy clean GCC cars, so demand never drops. The previous-shape V6 Prado stayed strong even after the 2024 model launched, because many buyers prefer the proven engine. VXR and TXL trims carry a premium, and Al-Futtaim service history and GCC spec get the top offers. Carology buys every Prado and pays the same visit.

How Prado holds its value in the UAE

The Prado sits in the sweet spot of the UAE market: big enough for a family, capable enough for the desert, and cheap enough to run that a 200,000 km car still makes sense. The new 2024 Prado with its turbo engine has not hurt the older V6 cars, and in some cases has lifted them, because a section of buyers simply want the V6.

Prado models ranked by resale value

  • VXR V6: the most wanted, especially 2018 to 2023
  • TXL: strong family demand, close behind the VXR
  • GXR: the volume trim, sells fast at any mileage
  • 2024 onwards Prado 250: holding well, limited used supply
  • Older 120 series: a steady export and budget market

What moves a used Prado's price

  • Trim and engine: V6 cars sell for more than four-cylinders
  • Al-Futtaim agency service history
  • GCC spec and a clean accident record
  • Sunroof, leather and the number of seats
  • Original parts if the car was lifted or modified
