Toyota imported Sea Lions, how can it challenge Mercedes-Benz and Alpha and become a million-level MPV ceiling?
Hello everyone, luxury car report, I am your month! Some fans asked: The million-level budget can buy the first class of Toyota Haishi, which has been super hot in the past two years, and can also buy the first class of Mercedes-Benz V-class, which has been competing in the luxury commercial vehicle market for many years.
It seems that choosing which one is very good, but the budget can only choose one, Sister Yue, can you tell us which one to choose in the end? Okay no problem ha.
First of all, from the perspective of seat demand, Toyota Hiace can choose up to 9-seat version with its natural size advantage of 5.9 meters, while the 5.4-meter Mercedes-Benz V-Class can only choose up to 7-seat version.
In many of the orders I handle, the big guys who choose the 9-seat Toyota Hiace usually have corporate reception needs, or usually like to go out with family and friends to play golf outings.
Basically, a car can solve the travel problem, which is very convenient, so if there is a demand in this regard, there is no doubt that the exclusive 9-seat version of Toyota Hiace must be the first choice.
So if it is all a 7-seat full partition layout, what is the advantage of Toyota Hiace? The first is the 3.5-liter six-cylinder engine, the same as the previous generation Elfa and Sena, and may now be the only six-cylinder MPV available in the million class.
The second is the 5.9-meter length with the height of 2.2 meters, whether it is compared to the Mercedes-Benz V-Class, Elfa or Lexus LM, the space is all-round larger.
Whether it is the big guys in the second or third row, it is no problem to think of how to lie down, the trunk can also put the suitcase and golf bag you need, it can be said that in space, Toyota Sea Lion has no opponent at all.
If the Mercedes-Benz V-Class wants to achieve such a ride experience, it is recommended to choose the 7-seat through cabin layout. Of course, Toyota Hiace is not without shortcomings, the space is huge, and the disadvantage is that it is not very friendly to daily driving and parking problems.
So in the orders I handle, the owner of the car is usually equipped with a driver, and even has a 7-seat commercial vehicle in his hand, which one needs to drive, sister Yue I can only say that it is too enviable.
If you are considering that you often need to drive your own, or there are restrictions on the parking space of the common address, it is recommended to give priority to Mercedes First Class.
Well, today's episode of the show, I will simply talk to you about this, I hope my answer can help you.
