Everyone knows that there are many sister models in the automotive circle, FAW-Volkswagen Tanyue and SAIC-Volkswagen Tiguan L, Dongfeng Honda Civic and GAC Honda Model, FAW Toyota Corolla and GAC Toyota Leiling. However, Toyota compared to the opponent, for the 150,000-level SUV market to start relatively slow, delay in the launch of models, just this year, they finally came, from the TNGA platform, FAW Toyota Corolla Ruifang and GAC Toyota Fenglanda, today Xiaobian for everyone to shoot in detail fenglanda.
Trumpet Veranda, more sporty
Compared with the design of the Corolla Ruifang copied the overseas version of the Corolla CROSS model, Fenglanda is more able to grasp the aesthetics of domestic consumers.
Fenglanda's front face shape has a very strong family flavor of GAC Toyota models. The forward grille and the lower surround are designed together, and the upper part is a closed middle grid shape that really has the flavor of a new energy vehicle.
Time to 2022, 150,000 class models have begun to play matrix LED headlights, the real shot of this Feng Lanta also followed the trend. The grille outer ring trim of the high-end model adopts a different color from the body, while the low-end model is the same color, and the round fog lights are also hidden under the surrounding sides, of course, only the high-end model has it.
The side styling of the body highlights youthful vitality, and the real-time model is a luxury PLUS version, with a two-tone body and exclusive 18-inch blade wheels, with sheet metal workmanship on the front and rear fenders, highlighting the sense of fashion. The four-wheeled wheels and the sides of the body are covered with unpainted parts, retaining a certain amount of wild game in the SUV model.
Although the shape of the rear of the car is simple, it is rich in layers. Unfortunately, the taillights do not adopt a penetrating design, and most of the light sources still use halogen light sources, and domestic cars at the same price have already used full LED taillights. The lower enveloping design body is paintless, and the very wide and thick covered with a penetrating silver trim in the center highlights the youthful and sporty atmosphere.
Minimalistic not cheap, family design
The exterior does refresh people's stereotypes of Toyotas, but the interior design pulls you back.
Very traditional T-shaped layout in the console, the overall line is also horizontal and vertical style, although there is no so-called popular and technological atmosphere, but the entire interior is better than simple and easy to operate.
The steering wheel is still Toyota's family design, the top model exclusive 7-inch LCD instrument, other models are only 4.2-inch LCD instrument, the entire dashboard is still dominated by mechanical pointer instruments, but this is like Toyota's style. On the large screen arrangement of the central suspension type of the center console, the buttons in the air conditioning control area are relatively small, and the hand may be misoperated, but the bottom adopts a high-brightness trim similar to the piano baking black, and the overall visual effect is very good. The front of the co-pilot and above the door panel are made of leather wrapping and stitching, although the overall design is more moderate, it is good to win back a point in terms of materials.
Compact size, spacious enough
The Fenglanda positions a compact SUV with a wheelbase of 2640mm, which belongs to the standard body of this class.
When you sit in the front row, you will be deceived by the style of its seat, thinking that it is a one-piece sports seat, in fact, its seat headrest can be adjusted, so that drivers of various heights can find a suitable sitting position. The front seat padding still maintains the soft comfort of the Japanese car. The high-end models use leather seats, and the low-end models are still fabric seats.
It's still a little difficult to get your legs cocked in the back space, but it's much more comfortable for normal household use. There is a certain bulge in the center of the rear floor, but it does not affect the three adults sitting in the back seat, and the rear seat still provides air conditioning independent air outlets and USB charging interfaces. The second row of seats also supports the adjustment of the backrest angle to improve passenger comfort during long distances.
The real-time model has an electric tailgate, the space inside the trunk is unconventional, the wheel arches on both sides of the car do not occupy too much space, and the rear seats also support proportional reclining, further improving the car's ability to reprint.
Self-priming engine for durability
Fenglanda is equipped with a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine as standard, and considering its price, there should be no hybrid model launched for the time being.
This 2.0L engine is also our old friend, the engine has a maximum power of 171 horsepower, peak torque of 205 Nm, and is matched by a CVT transmission. Since the positioning is an entry-level home SUV, such a durable power combination, coupled with a fuel consumption of about 5.8L per 100 kilometers, is truly worthy of the name.
Summary of the full text
The current domestic 150,000-level SUV market is basically occupied by domestic brands, the same price, the advantage of domestic brands is armed to the teeth of the configuration, and the same price of the joint venture model compared to the really rich too much. Therefore, the sales volume of joint venture brand SUVs in this range is relatively average. However, Toyota dares to rush into this market, indicating that the early stage must have done a very rich market research, and Toyota's reputation in the country has been good, has always had a low failure rate, high value preservation reputation, so personally Held Toyota wants to seize this market, absolutely not by the configuration of the sky, but reliable vehicles.
