Not long ago, Bian Xiao was lucky enough to be invited to participate in the professional media test drive of FAW Toyota Crown Fang Lu held in Tianjin V 1 Motor Sports World. So, what is the performance of this Crown Fang Lu? Next, I will reveal them for you.
With the support of TNGA-K platform, Toyota's new-generation TNGA 2.5L dual-engine hybrid power system and E-FOUR electronic four-wheel drive, Crown Fang Lu, with a body length of more than 5 meters, is still comfortable under the deep experience of easy turning, continuous cornering, smooth cornering, flexible walking, strong power, right-angle cornering, bumpy road sections, safe parking, prop testing and other subjects, which brings a lot to drivers.
The minimum turning radius of 5.7m makes it easier for Crown Fang Lu to turn around and turn.
After starting, the first thing to do is to get familiar with the vehicle. After a short straight and two consecutive 90-degree bends, I entered the first subject in the true sense of today's test drive-"easy U-turn".
Thanks to the minimum turning radius of 5.7m, the large body of 50 15mm and the long wheelbase of 2850mm, Crown Fang Lu has no difficulty in turning or turning around. This kind of performance can be relaxed and comfortable even when driving in the city or turning around on some narrow two-lane roads, and the convenience of daily driving is self-evident.
In the following subjects such as "continuous cornering", "smooth cornering" and "flexible walking", we can obviously feel the rapid intervention of VSC body stability control system in continuous cornering, so that Crown Fang Lu can maintain a good body posture every turn. At the same time, based on ACA active steering assist system, TNGA high-standard low-center-of-gravity frame, and newly adjusted rear double wishbone independent suspension system, supplemented by Lexus LM shock absorber, the car body roll is reduced, while driving comfort is ensured, so that Crown Fang Lu always maintains a good body posture and shows good handling like a car.
TNGA2.5L hybrid +E-Four four-wheel drive strong power leads the super-combustion driving experience.
Crown Fang Lu is equipped with a new generation of TNGA 2.5L dual-engine hybrid power system, which integrates small, light and efficient technologies, greatly improving fuel economy and power performance, and at the same time achieving accelerated response, mute and other aspects. 2.5L power engine adopts VVT-iE intelligent electric variable valve timing intake system, dual-injection fuel supply system (direct injection D-4S in cylinder+intake manifold injection), laser cladding valve seat and other new technologies to achieve industry-leading thermal efficiency of 4 1%. Matching it is a new generation of E-CVT continuously variable transmission, which makes the power output more linear and smoother, bringing surging power and further reducing fuel consumption.
In the course of "strong power", the "high energy and low consumption" of the new generation TNGA 2.5L dual-engine hybrid power system has been fully reflected. This brand-new hybrid system can generate 183kW system comprehensive power, which makes the vehicle accelerate more smoothly. Moreover, in the whole acceleration process, the throttle is very light and the acceleration response is sensitive, especially in the initial stage, and the power output is very direct. At the same time, with the blessing of the E-Four electronic four-wheel drive system, the vehicle started without any signs of slipping. This kind of performance makes you confident whether you are driving at high speed or accelerating overtaking.
Of course, the E-Four electronic four-wheel drive system will not only play an important role in the acceleration process, but also be further verified in the following subjects such as "bumpy road section" and "prop test". Because this electronic four-wheel drive system adopts the form of independent motor on the rear axle, it cancels the transmission shaft between the front and rear wheels in the traditional four-wheel drive system, which makes the power transmission more direct, and at the same time increases the torque distribution ratio of the rear wheel during driving, so that the front and rear torques can be freely converted between 100:0~20:80, which brings a driving feeling similar to that of rear wheel drive.
Crown Fang Lu four-wheel drive model is also equipped with TRAIL four-wheel drive integrated management system, which can fully control the driving force, four-wheel drive, braking and steering functions based on different road surfaces and driving conditions, so as to achieve excellent handling stability, passability in bad road conditions and driving comfort. At the same time, the power distribution of the four-wheel drive system can be clearly displayed on the 12.3-inch central control panel, which makes people see at a glance and shows strong practicability.
Such a "thinking four-wheel drive" is enough for people to enjoy the ultimate driving pleasure under any road conditions.
Control vehicle dynamics at any time through safety configuration.
In terms of safety configuration, Crown Fang Lu comes standard with a new generation of Toyota Safety Smart Safety and 7 SRS airbags, which makes Crown Fang Lu "equipped from the beginning, and safety is not optional".
The new generation of Toyota Safety Sense intelligently and safely integrates the PCS pre-collision system (with pedestrian recognition in front, etc.). ), DRCC dynamic radar cruise control system (with full-speed car-following function), LTA lane tracking auxiliary system (with car-following function) and AHB automatic high beam system can not only identify vehicles, but also identify pedestrians, reduce the probability of accidents and reduce collision injuries.
In addition, Crown Fang Lu's PVM Panoramic Monitoring System and PKSB Parking Anti-collision Assistant System have played the greatest role in the subject of "Safe Parking". Based on the principle of practicality first, the driver can "look around and listen to all directions" in the driving position, always control the surrounding situation of the vehicle and increase the safety of parking. Even novice drivers can do it easily when reversing or warehousing.
The dynamic appearance and spacious space create a full range of details to enjoy.
This test drive, besides the dynamic experience, also arranged enough time for the static experience of Crown Fang Lu. First of all, in terms of appearance, the design style of Crown Fang Lu is dynamic and younger. The front part, the "crown" symbol of the front, shows its inherent dignity and kingliness; The rhombic honeycomb network creates a more exquisite and atmospheric visual effect; The large lower grille, combined with the penetrating silver decorative strips below and the fangs-shaped black decorative strips on both sides, adds a bit of power to the whole car. The standard three-eye LED headlights in the whole system are slender and sharp, emitting a strong proud and confident gas field.
On the side of the car body, A-pillar is treated in black, and with black B-pillar /C-pillar, a suspended roof effect is created. The sharp waistline extending upward from the bottom of the front door to the taillights makes the rear wheel arch look more outward, further enhancing the muscle feeling on the side of the car body. With 20-inch blackened aluminum alloy wheels, the whole car looks like a "walking hormone". The gas field is quite domineering.
The tail shape is narrow and wide, and the trapezoidal structure creates a square visual effect. The shape of the combined LED taillights echoes the headlights at a distance, which enhances the width and three-dimensional sense of the tail. The wide tail wing and solid single-side double-outlet exhaust pipe, coupled with the metal surrounding decoration of the whole vehicle, further increase the sense of movement of the whole vehicle.
The length, width and height of Crown Fang Lu are 5015/1930/1750 mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2850mm, which creates a spacious interior space for Crown Fang Lu. The second row seat guide rail is 180mm, which makes the third row leg space more abundant. In addition, the backrest of the third row seat is longer and wider, which improves the practicability of the third row seat. Moreover, the depth of the luggage compartment has reached 520mm, and it has a larger and richer storage space.
In addition to spacious space, Crown Fang Lu is also equipped with HUD head-up display system, 12.3-inch multimedia navigation system, 12.3-inch all-liquid crystal color TFT multifunctional information display screen, intelligent voice interaction system, face recognition function, panoramic sunroof and a series of high-tech configurations, which make driving easier, more comfortable and more pleasant.
In addition, Crown Fang Lu is equipped with front windshield sound insulation glass and front sound insulation glass as standard, and TNGA polymer damping materials and sound and vibration isolation materials are adopted for the first time to make the whole cockpit as quiet as a library.
Summary:
After nearly a day's experience, the overall performance of Fang Lu Crown is amazing. Whether it's dynamic and domineering appearance, rich technology configuration, or dynamic driving experience with great texture, it is interpreting what is "luxury with personality". Crown Fang Lu is not only a car, but also a pioneer. With its unique product temperament, it guides the new coordinates of trendy life and creates a new way of luxurious life.
Now, Crown Fang Lu has been listed, and the official guide price is 275,800-350,800 yuan. If you are interested, I believe this "big guy" won't let you down.
