Toyota is under pressure, and Prado is expected to ease the pressure on competitors. Toyota, as a traditional car giant, is facing the pressure of intensified market competition and electrification transformation. As a result, Toyota no longer has the original hunger marketing and arrogance, and even Lexus has switched from mark-up sales to mark-down sales. However, the Toyota brand is still somewhat competitive in the gasoline vehicle market.
A recently exposed PPT shows that the price of the new domestic Prado may be around 500,000. If this price is true, I personally think the pressure on potential competitors like the Tank 500 and Equation Leopard Leopard 5 may be lessened. What do you think? Next, let's talk about the product information of the new domestic Prado.
Compared to the current model, the all-new locally-produced Prado has undergone a radical change in design. The overall design adopts the popular retro style, with a square shape and sharp edges. There are two versions of the front face, one is a square light version and the other is a round light version.
The side of the body adopts a straight design, and as can be seen from the pictures, the new car's minimum ground clearance, approach angle and departure angle and other off-road performance indicators should be good. The rear design is simple and there is no external spare tire. In terms of interior, a new design style is adopted, and the sense of luxury and technology has been improved compared with the current Prado.
The center console is equipped with a full LCD instrument cluster and a floating central control screen, and many smart configurations are expected. This makes the new domestic Prado even younger. In terms of power, the domestic version may differ from the version in other regions. It is understood that the domestic version will be equipped with a 2.4T hybrid system and an 8AT gearbox.
This kind of power matching is not only in line with the competitive environment of the market, but also allows users to be more energy-efficient. In addition, features such as a four-wheel drive system and differential lock are also expected to be equipped. However, the market is constantly changing, and competitors like the Tank 500 and Formula Leopard Leopard 5 are also gaining recognition in this price range. Do you think the new domestic Prado will put pressure on them?
To sum up, Toyota is facing fierce market competition and the pressure of electrification transformation, but its brand is still competitive in the gasoline vehicle market. The price of the new domestic Prado is around 500,000, which may reduce the pressure on competitors such as the Tank 500 and the Formula Leopard Leopard 5.
The all-new domestic Prado adopts a retro-style design, the interior is more stylish, and the power system is equipped with a 2.4T hybrid system to meet market demand. However, with the market changing and competitors being recognized, it remains to be seen whether the new domestic Prado will be able to cope with the pressure. How competitive do you think the new domestic Prado is?
Will it be able to succeed in the market?
