The new generation of Toyota Alphard has been finalized, with the addition of Crown 2.4T, four-wheel drive +8AT, and major changes to the front and interior
Usually when a certain car is mentioned, the style is often updated, so it is very popular. As time goes by, even models such as and BMW 7 Series are the same. However, the Alpha is an exception. This car rarely appears on the road, but its legends are everywhere in the streets. As the king of price increases, it is also the benchmark for MPVs and is talked about by people. Nowadays, the product strength of this car is somewhat tight in the new car market, so the new generation of models has been finalized, and adjustments in design and power configuration are made in line with the general trend.
First of all, Alpha will further explore the power. Everyone knows that the trend of power is environmental protection. Previously, Alpha has introduced the 2.5L hybrid system of the same model as , Senna and . This set of power is very suitable for MPV and SUV models. , fuel-efficient and powerful, but after all, it is based on a naturally aspirated engine, so the explosive power is not particularly strong. Therefore, Toyota is very excited to add a 2.4T turbine engine of the same model as the Crown to the new generation Alpha. Making up for the shortcomings in high performance, thanks to this engine, Alpha has once again reached the threshold.
Alfa matched this new 2.4T engine with the Aisin 8AT gearbox, re-tuned the chassis, and added four-wheel drive technology, which can release 198 kilowatts of power and 418 Nm of torque, which is very expressive. In terms of appearance, Alpha is originally unique, with its boxy shape that is very individual. However, it seems that for the sake of marketization, the front face interior of the new generation Alfa has undergone major changes. The overall shape is more similar to GL8 and Sienna, with a gentle arc, and the horizontal chrome grille on the front face is wider. , and turned into a hexagon.
The new LED matrix light set is very sharp, and the entire front face has a brutal tension. In the past, Alpha was also very domineering, with more of a business atmosphere. This time it is obviously more focused on youthful momentum. The rear continues the shape of the suspended roof, and a belt-style chrome decoration is introduced through the lower side of the taillight group, which looks very heavy and a bit more stable. Personally, I feel that the tail design reflects the essence of Alfa better than the front face. In addition, in terms of interior, the new Alpha is expected to be replaced with the same layout as Lexus RX.
The new LCD instrument and floating large screen are more in line with young people's requirements for a sense of technology. Overall, the overall temperament of Alfa has become four or five years younger. The new appearance and interior are in line with the public's aesthetics. It is obviously to "get out of the circle". In addition, the 2.4T is also very competitive in terms of power. , can fight alone with GL8 Century. At present, there is still no news about the introduction of this car. From a certain perspective, a later price increase is still unavoidable.
