Will the "civilian Alpha" have a chance to come to the country? Toyota's new generation of Noah/Voxy was officially released
In the domestic MPV market, Toyota Alpha, Xena and other models have a good market performance, and there is a situation of short supply, and queuing, mark-up and car increase is not uncommon. For example, Alpha Ming is only a van of more than 200,000 yuan in the Japanese market, but the price in China has doubled several times, and even increased the price, so is there a model with a more affordable price?
Just on January 13, Toyota officially launched the fourth generation of Noah and sport Voxy models, offering seven-seat and pull-out versions, of which the starting price of the Noah seven-seater and pull-out version is about 150,000 yuan, while the starting price of the Voxy seven-seater and pull-out version is about 173,000 yuan. From the price point of view, the price of the new generation Noah/Voxy is not expensive, and it can even be said to be relatively low, but this is also the price of the car in the Japanese market, if there is a chance to enter the domestic market, it will obviously not be sold at this price.
From the official picture, Noah as a whole continues the car's classic square shell shape, although it is an MPV, but the overall appearance looks extremely square, while the car retains the positioning of the home MPV, the front face uses the iconic horizontal three chrome trims, creating a strong visual impact, while with three matrix LED headlight groups, the recognition is still very high, and Noah also has some alpha visual sense.
And Voxy as Noah's sport model, its overall appearance and Noah is actually similar, especially the styling design, Voxy vehicle has been blackened, especially the black mesh grille, looks more visual impact, compared to Noah is obviously more radical, after all, as a sports version, if not sporty enough, how to say it. In terms of size, the car is 4695/1730/1895 (1925 mm) in length, 1925 mm in length, and the wheelbase is 2850 mm, from the size point of view, Noah's positioning is a compact MPV, so in terms of positioning, it is necessary to race that, Alpha is lower, and the price is naturally much lower.
It is reported that the car is based on TNGA's GA-C platform to create, as an overseas version, the car uses the classic right-hand drive design, the overall design of the car and the domestic Toyota model some differences, but the difference is not big, like the suspension of the central control screen and MPV's iconic suspension of the center console is also equipped. In addition, the car's 2+2+3 seven-seater and 2+3+3 eight-seat layouts are equipped with comfort features such as double-sided sliding doors, second row seat heating, and a small foldable table, and the overall configuration is still very high.
In terms of power, the new generation of Noah and Voxy are equipped with a gasoline-electric hybrid system, which is mainly composed of a 1.8L gasoline engine and a motor, the maximum power of the engine is 72kW, the maximum power of the front and rear motors is 70kW and 30kW, respectively, equipped with four-wheel drive, and the fuel consumption of 100 kilometers under WLTC conditions is 4.3L. From the perspective of power, its performance is still relatively good, after all, for a compact MPV, such performance is already very good. In addition, Noah and Voxy also provide a 2.0L + CVT power combination, the maximum power of this power combination is 125kW, WLTC under 100 km fuel consumption of 6.7L, its performance is also very good, although the performance of the two power systems in terms of power is not very good, but this is also a major feature of Japanese cars, mainly in terms of fuel economy and compliance advantages.
Write at the end:
On the whole, Toyota Noah's performance is still very good, to know that the starting price of the car in the Japanese market is only 150,000 yuan, with 150,000 yuan can buy a "civilian Alpha", think about it is still relatively good, but Toyota Noah may not be introduced into the country, even if it is introduced into the country, its price may also reach hundreds of thousands of yuan, I personally guess there should be about half or sixty thousand yuan, if you can introduce it in a domestic way, it is still very good, this is also the best way, But even so, the price after domestic production should be around 200,000 yuan, but compared to imports, it is still much stronger.
