AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)06/23 Report--
Toyota China responded to an overseas recall of its new electric car bZ4X model on June 23. Toyota China said, "the wheel bolts of the tire may become loose when the bZ4X is under intense control, and in serious cases, there may be a risk of tire falling off, because bZ4X has not yet been produced or sold in Chinese mainland area, so this recall does not involve the Chinese market, but is mainly aimed at the United States, Europe, Japan and other regions."
The bZ4X, a medium-sized pure electric SUV owned by Toyota, is produced and sold by FAW Toyota and Guangzhou Auto Toyota in Chinese mainland. The new car is based on the e-TNGA architecture and is positioned as a medium-sized pure electric SUV. It will provide both front-wheel drive and four-wheel drive power. The pre-price of the new car was previously announced at 22-300000 yuan.
FAW Toyota bZ4X and Guangzhou Automobile Toyota bZ4X are basically the same in appearance, interior decoration and power, except for different vehicle configuration names. In terms of appearance, as a newly developed pure electric, the whole vehicle design language is completely different from the Toyota oil model on sale, the closed middle net is matched with the extremely radical penetrating type C headlamp group, and the lower encirclement adopts the penetrating styling design. the overall shape is very scientific and technological. In the rear part, the new car is equipped with popular through taillights, and the black encirclement of the bottom area further enhances the sense of movement of the rear. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of FAW Toyota bZ4X and Guangzhou Automobile Toyota bZ4X are 4690/1860/1650mm, and the wheelbase is 2850mm.
In terms of interior decoration, the design of the two models is the same, with a 12.3-inch full LCD dashboard, a special-shaped steering wheel appears only on the top model, and the large-size steering wheel of an ordinary model is also featured by a variety of function buttons. In addition, the dashboard and the central control screen are not on the same level at all, showing a different sense of hierarchy.
In terms of power, FAW Toyota bZ4X and Guangzhou Automobile Toyota bZ4X will provide front-drive and four-wheel drive power forms, the front-drive version of the maximum power 150kW (204Ps), the four-wheel drive version before and after the maximum power of the motor is 80kW (109Ps). In terms of battery life, the front-drive model CLTC condition comprehensive range 615km, four-wheel drive model CLTC condition comprehensive range 560km.
In terms of products, Toyota bZ4X competes with Volkswagen ID.4 and Nissan Ariya, and all three models are built on pure electric platforms. According to the data, the Volkswagen ID.4 family sold 15869 vehicles in the first quarter (including FAW-Volkswagen ID.4 CROZZ and SAIC-Volkswagen ID.4 X), which is lower than its own brands in the new energy vehicle market, but significantly better than other joint venture brands in the joint venture market. By contrast, Toyota bZ4X and Nissan Ariya are both late models, which are more fashionable in design and show a unique sense of the future of electric vehicles. How competitive the two models are, we still need to wait for the final announcement of subsequent pricing.
It is worth mentioning that FAW Toyota bZ4X and Guangzhou Automobile Toyota bZ4X were scheduled to be officially listed on the 17th, but they were cancelled for some reason. According to auto media person Yuan Qicong revealed: "Toyota in a recent test, found that the bz4X in the cold environment, the battery management system will go wrong, resulting in unable to charge." The source said that this may be due to the design of the power supply temperature control mechanism, because the heating power is not enough to meet the working temperature requirements of the battery in the cold environment, resulting in failure. If the news is true, it is a design error and a low-level mistake. However, as the battery suppliers of the Chinese version are different from the overseas version, it is not known whether the defect is a special case of the Chinese version or an overall design error. Toyota's Chinese version of bz4X will not be available until this defect is resolved. However, Toyota did not publicly respond to the news.
