What do the Toyota Landcruiser Prado Kakadu, Nissan Patrol Ti, Ford Everest Platinum, Land Rover Discovery, and Mitsubishi Pajero Sport GSR have in common? They are 4WD vehicles that MB Insurance Group can look to cover.
These vehicles have a strong history within Australia starting with The Toyota Landcruiser which has been popular throughout Australia since its introduction in 1958. Original models were short wheelbase petrol models which were imported for the Snowy Hydro Scheme. They proved so reliable and durable in these tough conditions that Toyota started having great success selling the Landcruiser to private buyers throughout Australia, particularly in regional areas. Original models were manual only, many having a canvas convertible roof.
Fast forward a few decades and the rise of the 4WD is as popular as ever. More manufacturers offering larger ranges of models from a base entry model to top of the range prestige with powerplants from 3.0L turbo diesels, to 5.6L V8s, through to hybrid technology to suit the needs of many Australians and their adventures.
Australians love to travel and see their own backyard, and with that, it is no surprise that these 4WDs are a common sight on the motorway towing a caravan or boat, ready for that weekend adventure at a holiday park with the family. With many models featuring 7 seats, large towing capacity and space for the dog, these 4WDs are as much at home taking the kids to school as is travelling the east coast of Australia.
