AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)03/16 Report--

Toyota Elfa is an online celebrity car in the Chinese market, its high online popularity is mainly due to its long-term sharp price increase sales, and due to limited production capacity and quota, the terminal price is stronger. Even so, there are still many consumers who are enthusiastic about it. A few days ago, Toyota officially announced that the 2020 Toyota Elfa dual engine went on sale, and the price will be raised from now on.

According to Toyota's website, the price of the 2020 Toyota Elfa dual engine ranges from 81.90 yuan to 870000 yuan, up 14000 yuan from the 2019 model. Among them, the price of 2.5L deluxe version is 819000 yuan, and that of 2.5L premium version is 870000 yuan.

The configuration of the 2020 Toyota Elfa dual engine has been improved. According to the official configuration information, the new Elfa dual-engine central control touch screen has been upgraded from 8 inches to 10.5 inches, while Baidu CarLife mobile phone interconnection function has been added internally. At the same time, the new car is also equipped with Toyota Zhihang interconnected system, which provides emergency rescue / road rescue services. In case of emergency, passengers can press the rescue SOS button in the car (located in the front skylight control area) to call Toyota Zhihang Internet Service Center, so as to contact dealers, public rescue agencies or insurance companies to ensure driving safety.

On the other hand, there is no significant change in the appearance and interior of the new car, and there is an upgrade in terms of power. The 2020 Elfa twin engine continues to be equipped with a 2.5L hybrid system, which is composed of a 2ARFXE 2.5L Atkinson cycle naturally aspirated engine and motor. The system has a maximum power of 163hp, which is slightly higher than that of the 2019 model, and the comprehensive fuel consumption of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is still 7.1L/100km.

Some netizens joked that "the 14000 increase in the official price of this car already belongs to the maximum discount", which reflects the special public opinion caused by the long-term price increase of the car. It is understood that the current Erfa dual-engine terminal generally increase the price of about 300000 yuan can be picked up.

The difference is that the Wilfa Shuangshi introduced by FAW Toyota did not continue the price increase, and it is said that there is even a small discount at the terminal. Based on this upgrade, the Lexus LM was not informed of the latest price increase shortly after its launch, but it was "praised" by parallel importers earlier, and the price increase was also much higher than that of Elfa.

Many netizens said that they were already disgusted with the price increase of some Toyota and Lexus models. But in reality, on the contrary, price increases and price increases have not affected consumers' enthusiasm for buying.

Toyota sold 23800 new cars in China in February, down 70.2 per cent from a year earlier, according to data. In 2020, Toyota's sales have declined for two consecutive months, mainly affected by the extension of the Spring Festival holiday and the epidemic. Toyota china announced earlier that it had set a sales target of 1.76 million vehicles in 2020, an increase of about 8.6% over 2019, and it is still difficult for Toyota to meet its full-year target.
