The new Highlander is based on the Toyota TNGA architecture (TNGA-K platform), and its appearance also adopts a tougher and more sporty design language. From this set of patent drawings, we can find that the body of the new Highlander is still tall and burly, while the headlights are quite sharp. The front face is hexagonal, the front grille is corrugated with horizontal stripes, and the top of the grille has chrome trim, which makes the whole front face full of vitality.
Coming to the side of the new car body, the design of the new car is quite simple, the waist line runs through the door handle, and the bottom of the door is also decorated with broken lines. The outline outlined by simple lines is quite powerful.
The design of the rear part is simpler and younger than the current one, while the taillight group adopts a relatively slender design, and the overall shape of the rear part is still very powerful and sporty. I believe this design can win the favor of more relatively young consumers.
The powertrain of the new generation Highlander is remarkable, and the overseas version provides 3.5L? V6 and 2.5L hybrid power let consumers choose, 3.5L? The V6 engine has a maximum power of 295 HP and a peak torque of 368 Nm. The transmission system is matched with an 8-speed automatic gearbox, and the ride comfort and power reserve are good.
Highlander introduced into China will adopt a 2.5L hybrid system with a 2.5L four-cylinder engine and two motors, with a comprehensive power of 240 HP. This hybrid system will bring better fuel consumption performance, and the new models will introduce two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive models for consumers to choose from. This hybrid system will provide sufficient torque and bring better fuel economy!
Write it at the end
Toyota Highlander has always occupied a leading position in the joint venture of seven medium-sized SUV market segments. The guide price of the current model is 239,800-325,800. Highlander has been in short supply for a long time because of its practical 7-seat space, reliable quality and excellent preservation rate, so some users have reported that the waiting period for purchasing this model is too long. In addition, the 2.0T+6AT powertrain used in the current model has good performance, but after all, it has to drive a huge body, so the fuel consumption performance is not very low.
The brand-new Highlander has adopted a brand-new platform and brand-new design, and its appearance has become younger and more energetic. The TNGA-K platform is expected to bring better driving performance. More importantly, the 2.5L hybrid system used this time can obviously reduce the actual fuel consumption of the model, which is very attractive to home users, because the new model can bring better fuel economy and cruising range, and I believe the new model will get better market performance!
