2023 Toyota Zenix
Leading mobility provider Toyota Motor Philippines (TMP) has officially introduced its first 7-seater Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) – the All-New Toyota Zenix.
Positioned to bring the electrified mobility experience to modern Filipino families, the All-New Zenix is a versatile vehicle with a self-charging hybrid system, combining the comfort, spaciousness, and reliability of a Toyota family carrier with the benefits of an advanced energy-efficient ride, with a quiet drive and lesser emissions.
The All-New Zenix is the newest addition to TMP’s wide HEV lineup, expanding its existing range comprised of the Corolla Altis, Corolla Cross, Camry, and RAV4.
“At Toyota, we believe that giving the customers the power of choice is a good way to help speed up the widespread adoption of electrified vehicles,” said Danny Cruz, TMP’s First Vice President for Vehicle Sales Operations. “Our customers have been waiting for a hybrid option that is perfect for more sustainable rides for the whole family, and so we are very proud to welcome this newest model in our MPV category.”
Designed for those who value versatility, reliability, style, comfort, and convenience, the All-New Zenix provides an enhanced driving experience, assuring families of the spaciousness of an MPV ideal for various kinds of new family experiences. It comes in two variants – the 2.0 Q Hybrid CVT and 2.0 V CVT.
The Hybrid variant utilizes a 2.0-liter gasoline engine coupled with a hybrid system that makes a total output of 186 PS while the normal 2.0-liter non-hybrid makes a healthy 174 PS.
The All-New Zenix showcases a sporty exterior with its big build and rugged grille, ideal for those looking for a people mover that exudes confidence on the road. The HEV variant’s 18-inch alloy wheels and over-fenders complete the look for an overall stylish ride, while the gas variant sports 17-inch alloy wheels. Both variants also have a Push Start ignition system and Smart Entry for easier access.
Equipped with the latest Toyota Safety Sense (TSS), the All-New Zenix HEV provides peace of mind in every drive with safety features such as Pre-Collision System (PCS), Lane Departure Alert (LDA), and Dynamic Radar Cruise Control. It also has active safety features such as Anti-Lock Brake System and Vehicle Stability Control.
Features such as Panoramic View Monitor (PVM), Blind Spot Monitor (BSM), and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) are also available in the HEV variant to assist the driver during parking and other driving demands.
The inside displays premium interiors that match the exterior. The HEV variant has captain seats with a power ottoman and power recline for a luxurious riding experience, complete with a side table for easy access to handheld items. The dark chestnut color of the seats and ambient lighting add to the exceptional look and feel of the MPV. The third-row seats of both variants can also be folded flat to provide more storage.
Meanwhile, the dashboard features a 7-inch Thin Film Transistor (TFT) Multi-Info Display and a 10.1-inch Display Audio with Apple Carplay (Wireless) and Android Auto. The All-New Zenix also comes with an Electronic Parking Brake (EPB).
The All-New Zenix is now available in all 72 Toyota dealerships nationwide at a starting price of PHP 1,953,000 for the 2.0 Q Hybrid CVT and PHP 1,670,000 for the 2.0 V CVT. The HEV variant comes in Platinum White Pearl Mica, Blackish Brown Mica, and Dark Steel Mica, while the gas variant is available in Platinum White Pearl Mica, Silver Metallic, Gray Metallic, and Attitude Black Mica.
As the pioneer in electrified mobility in the country, TMP continues to expand its HEV lineup as one of the concrete steps in its multiple-pathway approach to help achieve carbon neutrality. With the introduction of the All-New Zenix, TMP aims to elevate the thrill and joy of moving together into a shared experience among families.
