After China's accession to the WTO, the protection of the domestic automobile industry began to decrease, especially for the agreement on the shareholding ratio of joint venture car companies has been basically completely cancelled, the shareholding ratio of the previous joint venture car companies is 51% of the shareholding ratio of overseas car companies is 49%, and now this provision is canceled, that is, overseas car companies can also start to operate their own brand models alone, which is a big impact on domestic car companies, especially for car companies whose profits are particularly dependent on joint venture models. If you can't develop your own own models, it will be a deadly competition.
As a car creator, for many domestic car companies especially rely on joint venture brands to obtain profits, there is a feeling that Adou can't support the wall, so the majority of car buyers here must polish their eyes to choose models, after all, such competition will be more intense, and the situation of big waves and sand will become more and more obvious. As a joint venture car company, GAC Toyota, GAC's development has gained a firm foothold in China with GAC Trumpchi, and GAC Toyota has become another hematopoietic of GAC Group. GAC Toyota is still very monotonous in the product line, and now Toyota's New Year's masterpiece has appeared, it is Fenglanda, as a supplement to the product line, let's take a look at it today.
The design of the front face still adopts the design of Toyota's large and small net, the upper part of the small net and Toyota's bull head LOGO in one, and the lower part of the large mouth type middle net adopts a semi-closed design located in the lower guard plate position is its condenser position, the two side of the headlights use the integrated headlights The upper part is the LED daytime running light, and the lower part is the near and far integrated headlights, and the turn signal position is located on both sides of it, the best design of this car is to retain the fog lights, the light source also uses LED and uses a ring design.
The body's flank Lanta uses a very straight waistline, as a compact SUV model, its rear door position is handled a little flawed, because its lower door position coincides with the wheel brow, and there is a sunken design in the rear compartment, which makes it feel a little weird from the side, as we all know, Japanese cars are very strong in the space design of small models, so the four tires of this car are basically located at the four ends of the model to create a large space. This design is also a sacrifice for the sake of space.
In the design of the tail, the design of the front Landa is very conservative, the tail lights on both sides use the design of red and white, and the interior of the light cavity also adopts a rectangular design, while the Toyota logo is located in the middle of the entire tail, while the English name of the front Landa is located below the Toyota LOGO, and the design of the lower skid plate uses black plastic and silver decorative strips to make it quite good in the level.
As Toyota's compact SUV, although its interior still maintains Toyota's fine workmanship, however, the overall sense of plastic is very strong, on the dashboard, the Low-end Model uses a mechanical pointer instrument, while the high-end model uses a 4.2-inch small LCD dashboard, and the central control screen is 8 inches whether it is a low-end model or a high-end model, and the screen supports CarPlay, Carlife and Huawei's HiCar mobile phone interconnection function.
Powered by a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum power of 126 kW and a maximum torque of 205 Nm, the transmission system adopts a CVT stepless gearbox, which can simulate 10 speeds so that it should have a good performance in fuel consumption. As a model with a length of 4485 mm wide and a height of 1620 mm and a wheelbase of 2.64 meters, such power is abundant, so its fuel consumption will not be very high.
The 2022 Fenglanda is very affordable in terms of price, its starting price is 135,000 to 175,000, which is more affordable than Toyota's models, but it is not very affordable compared to its own brand, what do you think?
