The most popular MPV made in China! Toyota Sienna confirmed to be made in China, will it be too late?

The sedan and SUV markets are becoming saturated. For car companies, the MPV market may be a new opportunity. However, judging from the current MPV market, Buick GL8 still accounts for the majority. In a few years, GL8 has basically occupied the position of the sales king of this level, and its explosive power is very powerful. But a healthy car market cannot stagnate. GL8 needs a real competitor, and it has appeared now.

In May this year, Toyota released a new generation of Sienna in North America. At the same time, Toyota officials stated that the Toyota Sienna will be domestically produced at GAC Toyota and FAW Toyota. This full-size MPV, which has been focusing on the US market since its inception, has been rumored to be made in China, and consumers have been very vocal about it. Now it can be considered a final decision.

In fact, in January this year, Toyota applied for the Sienna trademark at the Trademark Office, responding to the aspirations of many consumers for domestically produced cars. Recently, a plastic parts foundry announced its congratulations on receiving an order for the rear tailgate of Toyota's 01*D model, Toyota's first MPV. As soon as the news came out, it was directly confirmed that Toyota would make a domestic MPV.

In fact, speaking of the Senna MPV, it is not groundless that it will directly seize the GL8 market after it is produced in China. First of all, we should know that the current price of the imported Senna is between 380,000 and 500,000 yuan. After it is made in China, the price will definitely be further reduced. Therefore, there is a high probability that it will directly join the ranks of Buick GL8, which will form a competitive relationship. .

Secondly, we should take a look at the performance of this MPV model in all aspects. Judging from the new generation of Senna released by Toyota before, its design is very radical, with a strong sense of sportiness, and a honeycomb-shaped design. The air grille and transparent taillight cover are very unique. I believe that the domestic version will continue this design. Compared with the GL8, the Senna's temperament is not inferior to it at all.

Referring to the size of the imported version of the Senna, the length, width and height of the domestic Senna may also be consistent with it. The length, width and height are 5085? Compared with the data of GL8, it is almost the same. I believe it will bring excellent space performance.

As a family MPV model, Senna’s interior design has always focused on simplicity and practicality, and its interior has basically remained unchanged from the first generation model to the present. The new generation of Senna mainly cancels the floor design of the front row, and connects the center console and the front seat armrest at the same height. Therefore, the lower part of the connected area has additional storage space, and the space performance is improved. Very impressive.

Perhaps also for the sake of introduction into the country, Senna only provides a power option of 2.5L four-cylinder hybrid system in the global market, with a maximum power of 246 horsepower. Compared with the 2.0T of Volkswagen Weiran (220 horsepower) and the Odyssey hybrid 2.0L hybrid (215 horsepower) have obvious advantages. In addition, some Senna models also provide the E-Four electronic four-wheel drive system, which is a very rare configuration in MPVs. It is expected that the domestic version will also provide this power system.

In addition, it must be said that the new generation of Sienna is based on the TNGA-K platform, which is the same platform as the previously released Camry, Avalon, Highlander and RAV4. This also means that The Senna's handling performance, power, body structure and other overall performance are all excellent, which is also a highlight compared to competing models.

It can be seen that the Senna is very capable in terms of platform, space and power, and Toyota's TSS2.0 intelligent safety system is also expected to become standard equipment for all Senna series. You can also see It’s all about sincerity in terms of configuration.

To sum up, Senna’s market competitiveness is actually very strong, and it is very in line with the needs of domestic consumers in all aspects. Just judging from the current MPV market, is the Senna one of the belated arrivals? As Governor Che said at the beginning, the MPV market has only become lively in the past two years. There are very few truly outstanding MPV models. The Senna can stand out with its own good product strength, and its biggest advantage is still So it is an MPV model under Toyota. As we all know, Toyota's high-end MPVs are represented by Alfa and even Lexus LM. Their influence in this field is really incredible. The arrival of Senna will naturally not lack attention.

Looking forward to the day when new cars are made in China.
