Since its debut, Toyota Tantu has been benchmarking American large pickup trucks such as the Ford F-150, Chevrolet Silverado and Dodge RAM1500, but with its good mechanical quality and word-of-mouth heritage, it is also quite popular in the US market.
Recently, Toyota also officially released the official map of the new Tantu Capstone model, Capstone means the apex, beyond words is the most high-end luxury version of the new Tantu series, the new car will be listed in the first quarter of this year, is expected to be priced at more than 70,000 US dollars (equivalent to 440,000 yuan).
Luxury must have a "luxury look". The new TantoCapstone forward grille has been redesigned to create a honeycomb shape, with chrome markings on the bonnet and side doors.
In addition, exterior mirrors, door handles, wheel hubs and other parts are also made of chrome alloy material, the visual effect is very atmospheric and luxurious. At the same time, Toyota is also equipped with high-end configurations such as electric telescopic side pedals and external welcome mood lights.
Compared to the exterior, the interior is the most luxurious place. The brown and cream contrast design is particularly premium, while also a lot of leather covering, with walnut panels, multi-color mood lights, this luxurious visual impact is in place.
The new Tantu Capstone is also equipped with a 12.3-inch full LCD instrument panel + 14-inch suspension central control screen combination, and there are 12 speakers JBL brand audio, leather perforated seats, soundproof glass, panoramic sunroof and other configurations, luxury and comfort are at the same time.
The new TantoCapstone is equipped with an i-Force Max hybrid system consisting of a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 engine and a 36kW electric motor with a maximum power of 326 kW, a peak torque of 790 N·m, a maximum load of 674 kg and a maximum traction force of 4690 kg. The transmission is matched to the 10AT transmission.
In addition, to provide consumers with a smoother ride experience, the new Tantu Capstone also offers adaptive variable suspension with additional cost options.
Pickup trucks and other models are the image of "tool cars" in most people's minds, and they can rarely be associated with high-end luxury, but the emergence of the new Tantu Capstone is to let us break the defense.
In the body design and interior of the various high-end leather applications, designer audio and various high-end configurations, none of them show the luxurious properties of the new Tantu Capstone.
Finally, it is limited by high tariffs and policy restrictions on pickup trucks in the domestic market. Even if the new Tantu Capstone enters the domestic market through parallel imports in the future, it is destined to be a "big toy" belonging to a small number of people.
