Recently, GAC Toyota focused on the transformation achievements and forward-looking technology layout in the era of joint venture 2.0 at the first Science and Technology Open Day. In the official event poster, it was learned that the Toyota Crown Signia will be launched in China in October this year. The new model is positioned as a mid-to-large SUV and is a plug-in hybrid SUV based on the GA-K platform based on the TNGA architecture, with a large five-seat layout.
Nowadays, Toyota Crown is gradually becoming a series of models, and has launched Crown Sedan, Crown SportCross and Crown Land Release in the domestic market, and the biggest highlight of this upcoming Crown Signia is that it is equipped with a plug-in hybrid system composed of 2.5L naturally aspirated engine + electric motor, the specific data has not been officially announced, but it has a fast charging mode, WLTC pure electric range of 90 kilometers, The combined cruising range is more than 1200 km.
In terms of appearance, the new car adopts a frameless grille design, and the diamond-shaped grille in the middle also has a good three-dimensional sense in the visual effect. The front of the car is flanked by split headlights with slender LED daytime running lights at the top and high and low beams at the bottom, as well as long radiator vents under the grille and black chrome trim on the front lip.
In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the new car are 4930mm*1880mm*1620mm, and the wheelbase is 2850mm. Compared with the Crown Land, the length, width and height of the new car are relatively smaller, but the wheelbase size is the same. From the side, the slightly raised waistline design of the new car will give people a feeling of being ready to go. The rear window is fitted with original privacy glass, and the side skirts are accented with chrome trim. The shape of the large, multi-spoke wheels is also sporty. As for the tail, the new car is equipped with the most popular through-type taillight group design, the top set high-mounted brake lights spoiler, the size is large and eye-catching, with the through-type taillight group at night is not only more recognizable, but also has a warning and reminder function.
In terms of interior, the new car continues the design style of the Crown family as a whole, equipped with a 12.3-inch full LCD instrument cluster and a 12.3-inch multimedia display, and the traditional physical buttons are still retained under the center control screen. In addition, the new car is equipped with an 11-speaker JBL brand audio, heated steering wheel, wireless charging, heated seats, and more. In terms of trunk space, the rear seats of the new car can be folded down proportionally, and even if they are fully folded, they can form a large flat space.
At present, the performance of the Crown Signia is still worth looking forward to, especially its plug-in hybrid system, I believe that as long as it comes up with a sincere price, coupled with its own luxurious quality, it will be able to quickly become the focus of the plug-in hybrid market.
