AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)07/17 Report--

According to car bloggers, Toyota Shiji is priced at 1.998 million yuan in the Chinese market, but it is currently quoted an increase of more than 1.5 million yuan, but even so, there are still no cars in the market, and one car is hard to get. The blogger revealed that at present, there are about 7-8 vehicles in the country, all of which are exhibition cars, which will not be sold for six months. In addition, Shiji's car booking conditions are also quite stringent, and it is necessary to examine the qualifications of car buyers to find out whether the source of income is legal, whether there is tax evasion, and whether there is a criminal record, similar to the purchase process passed down by Rolls-Royce at that time. If the dealer does not follow the process of selling the car, the dealer authorization will be disqualified.

Toyota Century SUV, the most expensive model in the Japanese market, made its domestic debut at the 2023 Guangzhou Auto Show. The car, named "Shiji" in China, locates the brand's flagship and focuses on the luxury market. It is understood that Toyota Century SUV will be produced in Japan's Tiahara plant, with a monthly production capacity of only 30 sets. Prior to this, the official price and optional price of Toyota Shiji have been exposed on the Internet, and the suggested retail price of the basic version is 1.98 million yuan. At the same time, we can see that the new car has a wide range of options.

Judging from the configuration information, the basic version comes standard with Yuanshan Yinghui car paint, with soft glossy ink interior, 20-inch water mirror rims and black calipers. In terms of options, Toyota Shiji offers a brocade night set, including 22-inch Yao black rims, black decoration, red calipers, loose scales and autumn interior decoration, totaling 290000 yuan. On the basis of the basic version, the car will provide an additional 6 kinds of car paint, 3 kinds of interior decoration, 2 kinds of rims and 2 kinds of calipers. The most expensive Jinxia Yinhui car paint is 200000 yuan and the 22-inch Yao black rim is 140000 yuan.

In addition, the car will also provide refrigerator (50000 yuan), paint protective film (30000 yuan), head pillow and waist rest (9900 yuan), suitcase cushion (12600 yuan), Phoenix welcome pedal (4 pieces of 25000 yuan) and portable charging wire (7500 yuan). In addition, the purchase + installation cost of the charging pile is 7500 yuan.

In terms of appearance, the overall shape of Toyota Shiji is square, and the silver honeycomb net with its own Phoenix logo brings a strong visual impact. The headlight group adopts a split design, and the daytime driving light belt in the lamp cavity is very similar to the previous listing of the brand-new Toyota Lande Cool Luze, which has a high degree of recognition after lighting.

The side of the body, the front and rear encirclement of the Toyota Shiji and the side skirt are all different from the color design of the car body, with silver dense spokes large-size rims, and the second row of doors are also replaced by side sliding doors. The rear part of the car, the overall style echoes with the front face, is equipped with a split rear light group, and the layout of the lamp cavity is also similar to that of the headlights. In terms of size, the Toyota extreme length, width and height are 5205/1990/1805mm and the wheelbase is 2950mm.

In terms of interior decoration, Toyota Shiji's overall design tends to be retro, and does not create too much luxurious atmosphere, and the overall tone is mainly black. It is equipped with suspended central control screen and full LCD dashboard, the center console also retains air conditioning physical keys and seat ventilation / heating touch buttons, and provides two USB-C charging interfaces and mobile phone wireless charging panel below. At the same time, the interior of the new car pays attention to the selection of materials, a large number of leather cladding and wood grain decoration on the front panel. However, the new car still retains a large number of physical buttons. The seats in the back of the vehicle are quite thick, with broad handrails in the center, and televisions are provided in the back.

In terms of power, Toyota Shiji uses similar power to the Lexus TX 550h+ plug-in model, with a 3.5L V6 engine and an E-CVT gearbox, but the specific power parameters have not yet been announced. It is worth mentioning that Toyota Century SUV is also equipped with rear wheel steering system and launched the "REAR COMFORT" mode, which can improve the ride comfort of the back seat.
