With complete “equipped to the teeth” weapons from modern design, to reasonable fuel-saving engine blocks and especially the Toyota Safety Sense safety system, Veloz Cross will surely not hesitate to collide with any opponent in the 7-seater car segment for less than one billion dong.
Modern, eye-catching design
“Cool and ferocious” are adjectives that can be used to quickly describe the face of Veloz Cross. The front of the car clearly inherits the modern, eye-catching design of Corolla Cross or most recently Raize. The radiator grille is decorated with very sharp and modern three-sided patterns. This eye-catching detail also appears in many positions on its brother Raize and receives a lot of compliments from consumers.
The latest Crossover model of Toyota Vietnam has a square and sporty face, with a sharp hexagonal grille, black paint. The chrome rim runs horizontally across the front of the car and extends to both sides, passing through the rearview mirror and reaching the tail of the car; creating a sense of continuity.
The under panel of the car as well as the fog lamp housing are made from square cut lines, combined with a pair of slightly folded eyes made from an impressive full LED light system, very integrated with the well-defined hood. All details create a tough and bold front end.
A particularly notable highlight is right below the Toyota logo in the middle of the front facia. That is the front camera, belonging to the 360 camera system of the car. This is a rare equipment to appear on a cheap 7-seater family car. What’s even more special is that there are also 2 cameras on the windshield that are part of the Toyota Safety Sense safety technology package!
Yes! A cheap 7-seater car with Toyota Safety Sense! Just hearing this, we can assert that Toyota Vietnam is extremely determined to aim for the MPV segment crown for families.
Returning to the design of Veloz Cross, the body of the car stands out with two-color door mirrors: black and the same color as the body. The electrically adjustable, folding and opening mirrors are positioned on the doors, combined with a small side window, certainly providing the driver with a very spacious view and minimizing blind spots.
What’s more, these mirrors also integrate a 360 camera along with the front camera. Especially, there is a blind spot warning on the mirror. These equipment will surely make the competitors in the affordable 7-seater MPV segment worry.
The legs of Toyota Veloz Cross also appear to be very impressive, with nicely highlighted wheel wells, a double-spoked wheel design in two colors very elegant. The rim has a size of 17 inches, accompanied by Bridgestone Turanza tires, ensuring a smooth experience for passengers.
A very commendable point is that Toyota equips Veloz Cross with 4 disc brakes, not cutting the facilities in the rear with only drum brakes like other competitors in the same segment. In addition, the car also has a shark fin-shaped antenna, eye-catching roof rails.
The rear body part of Veloz Cross is cleverly designed. The surface of the glass door from column C to D is diagonal triangle: both create a sense of a beautiful, sporty coupe-like rear end, while still maintaining a square design that is very advantages for space inside the car.
Overall, the body part of Toyota Veloz Cross is designed with elongated dimensions, large and long glass doors, creating a feeling of spaciousness, spaciousness and a touch of luxury, in line with the modern, eye-catching design of modern cars today.
Going to the back of the car, the Japanese engineers did not disappoint consumers. If Toyota Veloz Cross owns a tough front end, a luxurious rear body is also very modern and sporty.
The most outstanding is the rear positioning strip. This red LED strip is embossed, extending from the center of the logo to the sides with square and eye-catching and not inferior design to luxurious models. The car’s reversing camera is slightly off center, to make room for the trunk release button. Below are the rear sensors and the rear spoiler is designed in a fancy way, with an eye-catching gray color, the same color as the front underbody spoiler.
Simple, advanced and convenient interior
With overall dimensions of 4,475 x 1,750 x 1,700 mm; especially the wheelbase reaches 2,750mm, Toyota Veloz Cross has dimensions that are not inferior to its competitors.
The interior space is designed to be spacious, providing comfort for passengers. The second row seats can slide and recline 60:40, while the third row can fold 50:50 to increase luggage space to 498L. The sitting position of the user is truly comfortable in any position, including adults in the third row.
Especially, Toyota also sets up a very interesting “Sofa” resting mode for Veloz Cross. In this mode, the entire back and face of the second-row seats are flattened, wide and long like a living room sofa, providing a very comfortable chill experience for the whole family on outings.
The interior space is designed in a minimalist and modern style, with two main colors: black and light gray. Similar to the exterior, the interior lines are also rugged and square, creating a strong overall impression.
The three-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel has a masculine design, with all the function control buttons. Behind the steering wheel is also a 7-inch screen acting as a instrument panel. This is an equipment that all other competitors in the same segment must dream of.
In addition, Veloz Cross also owns a series of outstanding features, utilities beyond reference as an affordable 7-seater MPV model, typical such as: electronic parking brake integrated with Auto Hold function, wireless phone charging, 9-inch touchscreen entertainment center screen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity standards, 6-speaker entertainment audio system, push-button start, USB charging ports and 12V power outlet, storage space at the positions around the seat …
The seats on Veloz Cross are made of fabric and leather with elegant design, making cleaning easier. The front seats are all multi-directionally adjustable. The car is also equipped with automatic air conditioning and full rear air vents.
To quickly evaluate the interior of Veloz Cross, it can be summarized in three words: spacious, comfortable and modern. These are also the core factors that Toyota Veloz Cross can confidently aim for the champion position in the MPV segment under 1 billion VND.
Efficient operation, superior safety
As mentioned above, Toyota surprisingly equips Veloz Cross with the Toyota Safety Sense safety technology package. This is truly a very powerful “finishing blow” to “the sore spot” from Toyota – something that competitors cannot anticipate. Because with a competitive price compared to competitors, consumers will benefit a lot when choosing Veloz Cross, especially the safety factor – something that many customers seek when buying cars for their families.
Any customer who is considering buying a car will surely be convinced when facing a “forest of features” in the Toyota Safety Sense safety package, such as:
+ Pre-collision warning (PCS);
+ Lane departure warning (LDA);
+ Automatic high beams (ABH).
In addition, the car is also equipped with full range of other safe operating support features that are rare on easily accessible price models, such as: blind spot warning, rear cross traffic, 360 camera, hill start assistance…
So, if we strip the modern design, cut off all the convenience features inside the car, just equipping the Toyota Safety Sense safety package is enough for Veloz Cross to “stand out” among competitors in the segment, which hasn’t been focused on safety factors yet.
Toyota Veloz Cross is equipped with a 4-cylinder 2NR-VE engine with a capacity of 1.5L, front-wheel drive and power transmission by CVT gearbox. This system helps the car achieve a maximum power of 105 horsepower and a maximum torque of 138 Nm. This power level can be considered reasonable, when it owns a similar configuration and parameters that are not inferior to any competitor in the same segment.
The proven benefits of this configuration ensure the necessary power on any road: from urban to expressway, on the highway or when crossing steep roads. At the same time, with Eco/Normal/Power driving modes, Veloz Cross still ensures smooth acceleration ability, maximizes pulling force when needed and most importantly, fuel efficiency. The car has a fuel consumption rate of only 6.3L/100km mixed route.
In general, Toyota Veloz Cross has a moderate strength, reasonable suspension system. The steering wheel is gentle at low speed with a turning radius of only 5m, helping the driver to move flexibly in narrow urban areas. When driving on highways with high speed, the car provides a certain level of firmness. Moments of overcoming speed bumps or uneven bridges do not cause discomfort for passengers sitting in the rear like the common problems that other competitors face.
In conclusion, Toyota Veloz Cross owns a modern and eye-catching design, abundant utility equipment, the outstanding Toyota Safety Sense safety package, and reasonable fuel saving capabilities. The model shows the determination to change, rejuvenate the range of the company’s products, in line with the new Toyota tagline “Move your world”, demonstrating the big effort and vision of the Japanese car brand to the future.
This is a constant movement to connect Toyota to each individual, understand the desires of each person and expand the scope of connectivity globally. The spirit of “Move your world” is clearly demonstrated in recent new product lines of Toyota such as Corolla Cross, Raize, Camry… and will soon include Veloz Cross and the new generation Avanza Premio.
Veloz Cross will surely also be a factor to shake up the 7-seater MPV segment in Vietnam in the coming time and make competitors really worried, if not confident to say that it will dethrone a certain name and at the same time dismiss a few other names into the past.
