As a compact SUV, it provides a fuel version and a hybrid version. How is its product strength? Forrest Gump went to the store to experience the 2.0L CVT four-wheel drive adventure flagship version with a guide price of 233,800 yuan. Let’s take a look together.
In terms of appearance, it continues the family-style design style and is more dynamic and fashionable. The front face is blackened by the upper air intake grille; the fog lamps on both sides are hidden in the air guide groove decoration and connected by a black trim plate, which makes the layering feel clearer. The metal texture of the front bar adds a dynamic attribute to the vehicle.
On the side of the body, several fold lines outline a certain feeling, which is more in line with the aesthetics of young people. At the C-pillar of the body, a touch of black trim creates the look of a suspended roof. The side skirts and eyebrows of the body are wrapped in gray scratch-resistant material. The wheelbase size of the RAV4 Rongfang is 2690mm.
At the rear of the car, the slightly prominent taillight group has a good recognition when lit. The lower surround is also covered with metal-textured trim, giving people a good sense of security.
Entering the car, the T-shaped center console adopts a multi-level design, and the interior materials are wrapped in certain soft materials, which feels good to the touch. Three-frame type, wrapped in leather, supports up and down + front and rear adjustment. 10.25-inch center control screen, supports,, Hicar, these configurations are more intimate; the physical knobs and buttons such as air conditioners are retained below, which is more practical. A storage tray is set under the dashboard, which can place personal items such as mobile phones, which is more practical and convenient.
In the central channel, there is a 12V and a USB charging port in front, which is more convenient for daily charging of mobile phones; two water cup seats are set in the rear, which is more practical. In terms of auxiliary control configuration, it is equipped with front, 360 ° panoramic images, full-speed adaptive cruise, etc. These configurations can effectively reduce our driving pressure in scenarios such as parking and warehousing, high-speed cruise, etc. Other configurations, including openable panoramic sunroof, keyless start, front keyless entry, remote start, automatic dual-zone air conditioning, Karaoke function, etc., the configuration is relatively rich and practical.
In terms of riding space, Forrest Gump, who is 180cm tall, sits in the first row, with a punch in the head space; entering the second row, the legroom exceeds 2 punches, and the head space has 4 fingers; the lateral space of the second row of seats is relatively ample, and there is no problem riding 3 adults. In the second row, an independent air conditioner is set up to exit the trend, and 2 Type-C charging ports are reserved below. It is worth mentioning that the seat of RAV4 Rongfang is wrapped in leather and fur, which feels more delicate.
In terms of power, the RAV4 Rongfang is equipped with a Toyota M20D 2.0L, using hybrid injection technology, with a maximum power of 126kW and 171 horses. It is relatively mature and reliable. It matches the CVT gearbox and is equipped with a multi-disc clutch-type central differential, which supports timely four-wheel drive. The WLTC has a comprehensive fuel consumption of 6.84L per hundred kilometers. For a four-wheel drive SUV, this fuel consumption performance is still good.
We had a test drive experience. In the standard comfort mode, the power output of the RAV4 Rongfang was relatively positive and smooth, and the start was relatively brisk. Before and after, the tuning was relatively comfortable, and the fine bumps on the urban asphalt road were filtered well; at a certain speed, after passing, the "bang" passed, and the body posture remained relatively stable. The brakes are relatively close to the feet, the steering wheel feels light, and the overall driving experience is relatively comfortable and easy to drive.
[conclusion] Overall, RAV4 Rongfang, dynamic and fashionable appearance, rich and practical configuration, comfortable ride, timely four-wheel drive + fuel consumption performance is bright, the overall product force is relatively strong.
