Toyota was the only multiple award winner, repeating last year's performance when it also won these categories.

Overlander said the LandCruiser 200 Series petrol wagon is a "do-it-all vehicle" that has "astonishing prowess in the bush".

The magazine praised the new KDSS suspension system as "nothing short of brilliant" and said Crawl Control was a feet-off control system that did "everything bar steer the vehicle".

Compared with its 100 Series predecessor, the new LandCruiser offers more performance, better economy, improved on-road refinement, enhanced safety and more off-road ability.

Overlander said the LandCruiser Prado diesel wagon was a great touring all-rounder with impressive off-road ability and a long list of practical virtues such as a 180-litre fuel capacity and generous payload.

The LandCruiser Prado petrol wagon has won its category in each of the Awards' five years.

"The V6 is smooth, quiet and refined to the point where you would expect this powertrain to be in a luxury car, not a 4WD," the magazine said.

HiLux first became a category winner in 2005 due to what the magazine said were new levels of performance, comfort and almost car-like refinement.

"Although subsequently challenged by newer rivals from all of its major competitors, it remains at the top of the game," it said.
