[Autohome?New Energy]?A few days ago, we obtained two sets of patent pictures of Toyota pure electric concept cars from the National Patent Office. Both new cars are built based on Toyota's e-TNGA architecture. One is a compact SUV and the other is positioned as a medium and large SUV. Through the patent drawings exposed this time, we can have a certain understanding of the detailed designs of the two cars.
『Toyota medium and large SUV』 Judging from the patent drawings, Toyota's new medium and large pure electric SUV adopts a closed front face design, L-shaped three-dimensional headlights and a trapezoidal grille shape similar to a "big mouth" , creating a strong aggressiveness for the front of the car; coming to the side of the car, the new car adopts the popular hidden roof design. The waistline extending from the front hood does not run through to the rear of the car. The black decorative panel shape under the door panel Smooth, giving the vehicle a swooping visual effect.
『Toyota’s mid-to-large SUV』 The rear design of the new car is relatively simple. The sharply angled fold line design and two-color painting add a sense of hierarchy to the rear of the car. In addition, the entire vehicle adopts a short front and rear overhang design, which can maximize the optimization of the cockpit space and reduce the difficulty of power battery layout.
『Toyota Compact SUV』 The front face shape of this compact SUV is closer to the former. The biggest difference is that the front wheel eyebrows are directly connected to the front apron and hood. Coming to the side of the body, the new car uses hidden door handles and uses cameras to replace traditional optical exterior mirrors. The car uses low-wind resistance rims and has a rather avant-garde shape.
『Toyota Compact SUV』The rear of the new car adopts a fastback design, and the through-type taillights are not missing. The C-pillar shape is thick and highly recognizable. The crossover-style shape of the car makes the overall visual effect better. for sport. According to previous reports, Toyota announced that it will launch 10 pure electric models within five years starting in 2020. Among the six previously announced pure electric concept cars based on the e-TNGA architecture, they include three SUVs, one station wagon and two MPV models. This year Toyota has launched two pure electric models, C-HR EV and Yize E Jinqing, in China. By 2025, Toyota will launch 8 pure electric models. We will continue to pay attention to more news about new cars. (Text/Autohome? Zhang Wenhao)
