The price is reduced by 7,000, and the appearance and interior are slightly upgraded! Which one is better to buy for the 2024 Toyota RAV4 Rongfang？

We talked about the current sales of fuel vehicles before, and everyone thought they could no longer sell new energy, but in fact they still have nearly half of the share. It’s just that traditional car companies don’t "engage in traffic", and no new energy vehicles will play with public opinion, so I feel that fuel vehicles have no sense of existence. But in fact, the audience of fuel vehicles is still very wide, and their current advantages cannot be replaced by new energy. For example, Toyota, an evergreen among fuel vehicles, sold 16,387 vehicles in August, which is enough to shut up skeptics. It just so happens that its 2024 new cars are on the market. Today, let’s talk about the upgrade points and purchase suggestions of new cars.

There are a total of 9 new models in 2024, priced at 169,800 – 297,800, which is 7,000 yuan lower than the starting price of 2023. We also know that the actual end point price of the old model is actually only a little 120,000, and the new model has just been listed and is too embarrassed to sell at this price. So Toyota has launched activities for the launch of new cars, such as the highest discount for new car buyers to enjoy 32,000, and there is an official discount of 8,000 yuan. Taken together, the actual price is already very close to the 2023 model, so you don’t have to worry about buying expensive. After all, it is not a replacement, and the price of the 2024 model will not overflow too much.

After talking about its price, let’s take a look at the upgraded part of the new car. As mentioned earlier, after all, it is only a small modification, so the inside and outside of the new car have not changed much. What we can see is that there have been small changes to the appearance and interior of the Fashion PLUS version. For example, the new car’s middle net has changed from a plastic base color to a silver metallic texture. The size of the silver front lip trim strip surrounding the lower part has not changed, but the concave three hollow designs have become four small squares protruding, which obviously enhances the muscle feel of the new car. The side is the same, from a complete plastic baseplate to a plastic anti-scratch board and a silver trim strip design. The change in the tail is the same as the front of the car, and the design of the bottom decorative strip is also optimized. In addition, the new car also adds an electric tailgate, which should be considered an addition, right?

In terms of the interior, the shape and layout have not changed, focusing on improving the design sense, such as the addition of irregular orange stitches on the door panels and seats, which is a good visual effect. Secondly, the plastic decorations in the central control and door armrest areas have also been upgraded to piano paint material and wood grain style. In terms of power, the model equipped with a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine has a maximum horsepower of 171 horsepower and a peak torque of 206 Nm, which matches the CVT continuously variable transmission. The oil-mixed version is equipped with a 2.5L hybrid system, and the basic horsepower of the engine is 178 horsepower. The motor horsepower of the two-wheel drive model is 120 horsepower, and the four-wheel drive model has 174 horsepower, which matches the E-CVT continuously variable transmission.

As for which version to buy, if your budget is not enough, just buy the entry-level model, and the landing 130,000 more. However, you can’t have high expectations for its configuration. It can only be said to meet daily use. It is more suitable for people who simply want a worry-free and durable scooter. If you have enough silver and a budget of about 160,000, then you can consider the CVT two-wheel drive fashion Plus version and the CVT four-wheel drive adventure Plus version. The biggest difference between the two cars is that the latter has a four-wheel drive system. It depends on whether you need it for actual use. Other configurations are basically the same. Leather seats, 12.3-inch central control screen, voice assistant, rearview mirror electric adjustment, electric panoramic sunroof, Autonavi navigation, etc., are all practical and comfortable technical configurations for daily use.

Write at the end

People who like it must be indifferent to new energy, so even if the Song PLUS DM-i is more cost-effective, we will not talk about it here. But pure oil cars also have quite a few good choices besides it, such as Geely, which has advantages in space and configuration. The sales volume of 17,026 units in August can also be considered. There is also the old rival Honda CR-V, which is similar in price at the end point, and the sales volume in August is 12,105 units. Although new energy is now in the ascendancy, consumers are also very recognized by these old friends. How will you choose these three cars? Are you satisfied with the upgrade of the 2024 Toyota RAV4 Rongfang?
