Rumors about the delivery date of Toyota’s new “Alphard”

Currently, the delivery date for Alphard is said to be delayed due to various issues, and this is due to the Toyota Industries Corporation certification fraud announced on January 29, 2024. Furthermore, it is said that there is a shortage of manpower at the factory, and lastly, there is the issue of quality. If the number of units produced increases, quality problems will arise, so it is necessary to keep the number of units produced at a certain level…

What options do you want to add considering the resale value of the new Toyota Alphard?

Toyota Teammate Advanced Park + Parking Brake Support

“Executive Lounge” and “Z Premier” are standard equipment. All new Alphard models are equipped with the next-generation Toyota Safety Sense as standard . This alone is great as it has many functions, but even though it has a lot of safety equipment (Z is a manufacturer option), it is definitely worth adding this.

Advanced Park

After stopping next to the space you want to park, press the advanced park switch to confirm the parking location. Then, when you press the start switch, the system monitors the surrounding area and assists with steering, accelerator, and brake operations to complete parking (shifting is manual).

Advanced Park (with remote function) Hybrid vehicle

Limited to hybrid vehicles, you can remotely park and exit the vehicle by operating a dedicated smartphone app from outside the vehicle. Those who want to do this will definitely choose a hybrid car.

Parking support brake (stationary object) [Intelligent clearance sonar]

When parking or driving at low speeds, when there is a risk of colliding with a stationary object such as a wall, when starting suddenly due to pressing the accelerator pedal incorrectly or too much, or when starting due to pressing the shift lever incorrectly, the sensor automatically adjusts the direction of travel. When a stationary object is detected, the system is activated, mitigating the collision and helping to reduce the damage caused by the collision.

digital inner mirror

“Executive Lounge” is standard equipment. “Z Premier”, “Z” and “G” are manufacturer options. If you carry a lot of people in the back seats or carry a lot of luggage in the luggage compartment, we recommend installing a digital interior mirror.

Universal steps (both sides)

“Executive Lounge”, “Z Premier”, “Z” and “G” are manufacturer options for all grades. We recommend installing this for people who carry elderly people or small children in the back seat. The disadvantage is that you won’t be able to install a spare tire. From an export perspective, it may be fine to have a spare tire, but for domestic use, I think it would be better to have a universal step.

Twin dimming panoramic roof

The seats feature a “super long overhead console” and “twin dimming panoramic roof . ” It is recommended to install it as it is an option on “Alphard” and “Z” grades.

About Toyota’s new model “Alphard”

Although it maintains the same concept as the previous model, the exterior design and front and rear bumper designs have been changed. Continuing from the previous generation , it uses ” flowing turn signals (sequential turn lamps) “. The body size (total length 4,995mm, total width 1,850mm, total height 1,935mm, wheelbase 3,000mm) is maintained within the size limit for general mechanical parking lots (total length 5,000mm x total width 1,850mm or less). It uses a newly developed platform called TNGA (Toyota New Global Architecture) , which was adopted from the new Prius released in December 2015 . The engine model is equipped with a “ 2.5L inline 4-cylinder direct injection engine (Dynamic Force Engine) ” that achieves the same maximum thermal efficiency of over 40% as the new Camry . This engine is also used in the hybrid model, and a smaller, lighter hybrid system called “High Performance Multi-Stage THS II” is used to improve fuel efficiency. The new Alphard/Vellfire Hybrid uses the same 2AR-FXE 2.5L straight-4 DOHC+ motor as the Camry Hybrid, and has a WLTC mode fuel economy of 16.5-17.7km/L. The previous model only had a 4WD (E-Four) hybrid model, but this time, for the first time, a 2WD (FF) model will be available. Additionally, the eight-seater model was discontinued.

Toyota’s new Alphard interior has significantly evolved

The front seats feature the latest steering wheel and shift knob of the latest design, which is shared with the new Prius and Crown. The electric parking brake and hold button are very easy to press, and the charging position is very convenient, just by placing it next to the drink holder. A 12.3 – inch large full LCD digital meter , 14-inch display audio, T-Connect SD navigation system + JBL premium sound system (15 speakers) , and a 13.2-inch display (optional) are used for the rear seat entertainment system. It uses Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Equipped with DCM in-vehicle communication device as standard. (Executive Lounge is standard equipment)

Furthermore, the rear seats feature a “super long overhead console” and “twin dimming panoramic roof”, as well as “LED roof color illumination”, just like the previous model. The top-of-the-line “Executive Lounge” rear seats are luxuriously equipped with “seat reclining” and “relaxation” functions, as well as a “heat seat” ottoman and armrest. Furthermore , it has two ” centralized control touch panels ” that allow you to intuitively operate various comfort equipment such as the TV .

“ Universal steps ” are installed on both sides (optional). Although the third row seat is a flip-up type, the two-stage mechanism allows for more movement in the second row than in the previous model, increasing the variety of seat arrangements.

The moonroof’s shades are independent on the left and right sides, allowing each customer to simultaneously meet their individual wishes, such as wanting to see the sky or block out the sun. In addition, the side sunshade is a descending type, a first for Toyota.

Toyota new “Alphard” specs

The hybrid system for the 2.5L engine tuned to the new Alphard and Vellfire specifications will be completely renewed.  The 2.5L THSⅡ pursues excellent power performance and low fuel consumption at a high level, thanks to the synergistic effect of compact, lightweight, low-loss technology, and the high combustion efficiency and high output of the new TNGA engine. Achieving high start-up acceleration performance that completely changes the image of hybrid vehicle driving, and driving that is full of direct feeling. In addition to improving system efficiency when driving at high speeds, high-speed fuel efficiency is also improved by enabling the engine to operate intermittently even at high vehicle speeds. Looking at the specs, it’s attractive, with fuel economy comparable to old compact cars (17.5-17.7km/L) and maximum system output of 184w (250ps), which provides perfect driving performance. Considering resale value, a hybrid vehicle is definitely the choice.
