Toyota Asia Dragon finally brought its first redesigned model after its launch. And this revision is also very concerned about many friends who want to choose the Asian Dragon, after all, even the Camry has used a full LCD instrument, and the Asian Dragon series or the 7-inch meter is really unspeakable. So, what are the changes in the new 2022 Asian Lombot, and how about the configuration improvement compared with the old model? Which car is more worth buying? Today we will analyze it.
In terms of vehicle configuration, the 2022 Asian Dragon is still a three-set power combination of 2.0L, 2.5L naturally aspirated engine and 2.5L hybrid system, and each power provides three model configurations.
In terms of appearance, we saw that the new Asian Dragon offered two sets of exterior designs, and the main difference was reflected in the front of the car. There are two kinds of horizontal strip lattice grilles that reflect the atmosphere and business style and honeycomb bright black intake grilles that reflect the sports style. From personal preference, the grid mesh is undoubtedly more beautiful.
The shape of the headlights has also been adjusted, and the details have also been adjusted in the shape of the day running lights and light groups.
In the interior part of the car, the biggest upgrade of the new Asian Dragon is the use of full LCD instruments and the addition of touch-sensitive central control screens, which are very attractive to many consumers. However, as an old driver, the convenience of physical buttons is self-evident, especially Toyota's car engine system experiences a general feeling in terms of reaction speed, touch operation is not a good choice.
Another obvious change is that the power battery of the hybrid version of the model is upgraded from the previous nickel-metal hydride battery to a ternary lithium battery.
Let's take a look at the changes in the configuration of each model of the new Asian Dragon compared to the old model.
The first is the enterprising version of the model, the enterprise version provides 2.0L and 2.5L gasoline version of the two power combinations, in terms of price, the new model and the old model is no different, respectively, 199,800 yuan and 208,800 yuan.
In terms of configuration, in addition to the difference between the 2.0L and 2.5L models themselves, the new aggressive version of the model has upgraded the full-speed adaptive cruise, multimedia functions to support carplay, hicar functions, the upgraded project is not obvious, but the 9-inch central control screen of the new model has been changed to 8 inches, and the size is smaller, which is really confusing. Therefore, the upgrade of the new aggressive version of the model is not obvious.
The second is the luxury version of the model, the luxury version of the model in the price of the same as the old model.
In terms of configuration, it has upgraded full-speed adaptive cruise, front-row unlimited mobile phone charging, 10.1-inch central control screen, and supports navigation, roadside assistance, voice recognition and internet of vehicles, but the previous carlife function has been canceled. Overall, the upgraded configuration is still more sincere.
The third is the 2.0L Premium Edition. The 2.0L Premium Edition increases the budget by 4,000 yuan, and the configuration adds full-speed adaptive cruise, 12.3-inch full LCD instrument, front mobile phone wireless charging, and 10.1-inch central control screen. The configuration has increased, and the price has also increased, so the cost performance of this car has not improved much.
The fourth is the premium version of the model, which is still the 2.5L naturally aspirated version and the 2.5L hybrid version of the two power supply. The price has not changed, and the new car has been upgraded with full-speed adaptive cruise, full LCD instrumentation, wireless charging of front mobile phones and 10.1-inch central control screen, as well as auto-anti-glare rearview mirrors. The added configuration is similar to the deluxe version upgrade, so it is also a small increase.
Finally, the flagship version of the model, the flagship version only hybrid models are provided, the price is reduced by 10,000 yuan compared to the old model, and the configuration has increased the full-speed adaptive cruise, full LCD instrument, mobile phone wireless charging and 10.1-inch central control screen, rain induction wiper, but the front row of sound insulation glass has been reduced. Judging from the action of price reduction and increase in equipment, this model is also relatively obvious.
So, which model of the redesigned Asian Dragon is the most worth choosing?
Personally, I think that the lowest-equipped aggressive version has the highest cost performance, and if there is a demand for full LCD instrumentation, then choose the premium or premium version.
Although the Aggressive version has the fewest upgrade items from the perspective of upgrades in terms of configuration, the Aggressive version is still the most worthwhile configuration for those users who do not have a high budget. In fact, the new Asian Dragon summary, the main machine of the upgrade project is full speed adaptive cruise, full LCD instrument, central control screen, for these configurations, daily driving is not very necessary, so for those who do not have a high budget, the entry-level aggressive version of the model is still the best choice, especially the 2.5L version of the aggressive version of the model, only 9000 pieces more expensive than the 2.0L version of the model, the highest in the cost-effective car series!
