For Toyota, I personally feel that the brand's control of users is quite accurate, what field and what people need, Toyota can always accurately grasp, so Toyota will always give people a stable and solid brand image. However, in the past two years, Toyota has also begun to expand consumer groups in new areas, such as the bold launch of personalized models C-HR, or the Fenglanda, which is more in line with the needs of mass consumption, which is an important action for Toyota to refine the domestic product layout. Of course, since there is a decentralized product layout, it is natural to have a rising product layout to drive consumption upgrades, and it is the model that Xiaobian wants to talk about today - GAC Toyota Weisa.
In fact, starting from the eighth generation Camry, we can see that Toyota has made a great change in design, if the previous Toyota design will be more conservative and strive to meet the needs of the masses, then the current Toyota is obviously more willing to speculate on the aesthetic needs of people at different levels. Therefore, you will also find their own design highlights in different models of Toyota, and you can see some relatively unique design details on this Weisa.
In the overall design, Weisa will give people a slightly unique feeling, for example, in the front face design, Weisa adopts a non-flat structural design with extreme rarity, but relatively exaggerated extends the hood forward, forming a covered design between it and the grille. The advantage of this design is that it can further enhance the visual extension of the headlights of The Wasa, and also make the front face of the Wisa more three-dimensional and recognizable.
In the same way, we can also see the unique double L-type lamp source design on Weisa, in fact, each model of Toyota currently has its own headlight shape, such as C-HR's eagle-eye headlights and Fenglanda's one-line lamp source, which show the unique attributes of each car under Toyota.
In terms of body design, Weisa shows a similar sense of texture and elegance as Lexus, and the transition from the surface to the line of the melodious high-waist line is particularly smooth, and the elegant body posture of Weisa is outlined between one put and one close, which is well in line with weisa's light luxury positioning. In terms of tires, since the xiaobian test drive is the top model of Weisa, it uses a set of 19-inch wheels with a 225/60 R19 tire.
In addition to the unique front face design style, the tail design of Wei Sa is also unique. In terms of structure, the tail of Wei Sa will feel more layered, and the top-down design structure includes a one-line high brake light and a penetrating tail light, and the visual impact is still relatively strong. Therefore, at the level of exterior design, Weisa will give people a more unique feeling, and the identity characteristics will be more obvious, so that it has a recognition degree that is different from that of the regular car.
But of course, as a model positioned as a light luxury, the core highlight of Weisa is naturally its internal experience. The performance of the WISA in the interior part of the performance can also be described as quite sincere, it is clear that the whole car of Wisa uses a large number of leather materials, whether it is the center console, seat or door panel and other parts have the corresponding leather wrapping, the performance in texture is quite in place.
But personally, I think the surprise point of Weisa in the interior part lies in its design. Different from the conventional Toyota design, the independent suspension 12.3-inch central control screen adopted by Wesa feels more technological in visual terms, and at the same time, Weisa also does not forget the original intention to keep some commonly used buttons materialized, ensuring that the driver and occupant have enough convenience at the application level, rather than the end of the brainless integration of functions in the central control screen. At this point, it can be seen that even if Toyota intends to promote the intelligent process of vehicles, it still has the direct and convenient "communication" experience that people and vehicles should have.
In terms of intelligent configuration, Wesa is equipped with the latest Zhixing interconnection system, which includes mainstream functions such as navigation, online music, voice recognition, home appliance connection, life services, mini programs, payment, face recognition, Bluetooth phone, Bluetooth music and so on. At the same time, in terms of advanced configuration, Wesa is also equipped with 12.3-inch LCD dashboards, streaming media interior mirrors, HUD heads-up display systems, PVM panoramic monitoring systems and other functions, in terms of feature richness, Wesa's performance is still quite comprehensive.
However, relatively speaking, my personal favorite is the Toyota world's first dimmable panoramic sky curtain equipped with Wesa, which can switch between the dimming mode and the transmission mode in 1 second. Dimming mode reduces direct sunlight while ensuring light in the car, and light transmission mode enhances openness for a wide field of view. Both modes block more than 99% of ultraviolet rays, and you can enjoy a transparent and bright interior environment even on sunny days.
In terms of riding experience, as a medium-sized SUV positioned second only to Highlander, Weisa's rear experience is equally good. Both the legs and the head can give people a good spatial performance. More importantly, in the seat design, weisa's rear seats are just right whether it is in the length of the cushion or the softness and hardness of the backrest, which ensures the riding comfort of the rear passengers, combined with thick materials, but also echoes the light luxury positioning of Weisa.
Therefore, the small series of test drives is the top model of Weisa, so the power equipment is equipped with a 2.5L engine with Toyota's fourth-generation THSII. hybrid system, and the transmission is matched with an E-CVT transmission, and it is also equipped with Toyota's E-FOUR electronic four-wheel drive system. The maximum output of the complete powertrain is 163 kW. In fact, for this set of powertrains, I believe that many people are no strangers, especially excellent fuel economy, for today's high oil prices is undoubtedly a major artifact, and with the E-FOUR electronic four-wheel drive system, it also means that Wesa can adapt to more road conditions, allowing you to go to more places you want to go.
In the actual experience, the first feeling that Weisa gave me was stability, and it paid more attention to the performance of the driving texture. For example, in terms of power output, Weisa will feel quite smooth, and the more linear power output can allow you to get more communication between you and the vehicle, combined with abundant power reserves and linear brake foot feeling, in terms of performance, Weissa's performance can be described as arbitrary. And more importantly, the texture of Weisa's chassis is also quite thick, especially when traveling on bumpy roads, Weisa's suspension can not only filter out the fine vibrations, but also the bounce of its suspension is relatively small, which takes into account the comfort experience of the personnel in the car. Therefore, in terms of control, Weisa feels that it will be more appropriate and more in line with the positioning of high-quality travel.
As the second medium-sized SUV launched by GAC Toyota, the performance of Wesa is still quite good. Positioned as a light luxury, Weisa has a more comprehensive performance in terms of design, materials, and even driving texture, especially in interior design, Weisa is also unique in the Toyota car series, so that it has a unique recognition. So if you are a consumer who pursues quality and at the same time wants to upgrade your travel life, then this Wesa will be your good choice.
