Family reviewer

Nedahl has been a journalist for two decades, spending five years as editor of Cleo magazine and has been an editor at Cosmopolitan, Good Food and the Fairfax ‘Health’ section. She’s written across various topics for a range of high-profile food, health, travel and fashion-focused titles. She’s also appeared on The Today Show, Sunrise, A Current Affair, various radio programs and has been a guest judge on Australia’s Next Top Model.

Since having two children, you’ll more likely find her at the beach with the family than at a fashion show, doing a bunch of yoga classes, or cooking healthy food while drinking a glass of wine. And of course, the right family car is critical to keeping it all moving smoothly. A roomy cabin, plenty of boot space and stylish interiors rate high on her priority list. She also believes pink is the new black (except when it comes to cars) and that we should ditch single-use plastics.

Toyota seven-seater SUV comparison review: Toyota Prado Kakadu vs Kluger Grande hybrid AWD
By Nedahl Stelio · 08 Nov 2021
The Toyota Kluger is all-new, and the Toyota Prado is all-time. These are two very different SUVs but, strangely, they could be cross-shopped by plenty of potential customers. So, do you go for the Kluger, which now comes with hybrid power? Or is the hardcore 4WD Prado diesel SUV the better bet? It's going to depend on how you plan to use it, says Nedahl Stelio.
