Toyota has no shortage of people movers in the country. Right from the Innova, to the Granvia, there's one for every price bracket. The Toyota Avanza is an entry-level MUV that you can opt for. Not to be categorised as cheap, Toyota offers you a fully loaded package within a budget with the Avanza. Here is what you get for the amount that you are paying for-

On the Outside

New headlamps inspired by the internationally specced luxurious Vellfire van merge into a large grill stamped with the Toyota badge. The chiselled front bumpers add to the masculine look of the car. The L shaped taillights and a redesigned rear add oomph to the already impressive car. The large wheel arches housing the 5 spoked wheels impart the Toyota Avanza a raised stance.

In the Inside

The doors can be opened with a remote, thanks to the keyless entry system on the Avanza.

The inside of the Toyota Avanza has been designed to pamper you. The dashboard is a combination of grey and glossy black and cascades down to a sophisticated audio system that is AUX/USB, and Bluetooth enabled. The four speakers distributed throughout the cabin keep you entertained throughout the journey.

The three-dial illuminated instrument cluster gives you all the information that you need at a glance.

The seats are plush and ergonomically designed. The driver’s seat is adjustable, and so is the tilt steering wheel.

The dual air conditioning system cools the cabin quickly and makes travelling in the hot climate of Saudi Arabia bearable.

The car is spacious in every way. With ample legroom and sufficient headroom, the cabin is comfortable for long journeys. The large windows let in more light and make the cabin feel airy. There is enough space to fit in all your bags from a trip to the grocery store or for that long family trip that you have always been wanting to make. For larger luggage, you can tumble the last row forward. Even the second-row seats fold down flat for creating more space.

Under the hood

The Toyota Avanza features a 1.5 L powerful Toyota engine with VVTi (Variable Valve Timing) technology. The four-speed automatic transmission ensures smooth and efficient delivery of power on demand, from the engine making your journey quiet and comfortable. The refined engine also improves on the fuel consumption of the minivan.

Safety

The manoeuvrability of the Toyota Avanza is excellent, considering the MUV's size. With a turning radius of just 4.7m, turning in the narrowest of lanes and fitting in crowded parking space is as easy as it can be.

The vehicle is equipped with EBS and EBD that make braking efficient and an easy task. The VSC (Vehicle Stability and Control) system improves traction to the wheels and keeps the vehicle from skidding regardless of the road conditions.

The front and passenger seats are equipped with airbags that make the Avanza a safe car to travel in.

The 2019 Toyota Avalon is available on sale at a Toyota showroom near you. The article will take a closer look at the top features that make this vehicle a favourite among people who appreciate the finer things in life.

1. Amazing Interiors

The 2019 Avalon is a complete luxury car on the market, with an interior suite that combines convenience, comfort, technology, and luxury. The Touring interior is spectacular, courtesy of the aluminium trim, SofTex and Ultrasuede seat surfaces and door panels, and the leather-wrapped steering wheel. When you opt for the Avalon Limited, you will receive the comforts of the Cognac Leather-trimmed seating. The cabin is spacious and luxurious, offering 60/40 split folding rear seats with 2 adjustable and 1 fixed headrest, and includes armrests that come with cup holders. The internal door trim comes with wood grain effect.

 2. Sound Control

The new 2019 Avalon offers flow, power, and speed while letting you manipulate the soundtrack to it all. This is made possible via the Touring's (standard) revolutionary Engine Sound Enhancement (ESE) system which ramps up the engine's audibles via the Avalon's new audio arrangement. Adding to this, the Intake Sound Generator (ISG) and sport exhaust are capable of providing an aggressive tune during acceleration.

 3. Speed, Power, and Flow

The 2019 Avalon comes with a 3.5-litre V6 engine and comes equipped with up-to-date driving technology that includes Variable Valve Timing-intelligent Wide and D-4S direct-injection matched with a Direct Shift 8-speed transmission. This allows for power whenever you want, without sacrificing fuel economy. The fuel economy also gets better if you drive the 2.5-litre Dynamic Force Engine and hybrid system that offers an ECO and EV Mode which helps deliver an impressive estimated 44 mpg highway.

 4. Upgraded Aerodynamics

The 2019 Avalon benefits from Toyota's New Global Architecture (TNGA). This profound and new way of building better vehicles has positioned the Avalon amongst the most aerodynamic luxury vehicles on the market. The longer, wider, and lower platform is complemented by a range of features which include an available rear spoiler, underbody panels, a rear diffuser, and tangential vents on the sides of Avalon's front bumper. Such features help to assist in shaving the vehicle's drag coefficient to just 0.27, increasing fuel efficiency while lowering cabin sound.

 5. Notable Exterior Touches

From the first look, you will notice the Avalon's new lower and wider stance which is crowned by a flowing roofline that delivers a sleek silhouette. The character lines are strong and impart deeper unique details to the shape, with the 2019 Avalon Touring model enhancing the dynamic exterior further with its piano-black accents that have the 17-inch/18-inch wheels and the sport mesh front grille and the dual exhaust with quad chrome tips and rear spoiler that gives off a no-nonsense look to the vehicle.

The drag strip at the Yas Marina Circuit will be the host again to the sound of the thunder of street machines with the return of UAE’s best urban racing series, the Yas Super Street Challenge, in 2019.

Then:

Last year, Yas Marina Circuit had partnered with PKE Gulf WLL that oversaw the advanced timing technology that was installed throughout the Circuit’s custom-built drag strip.

The technology that was implemented, thanks to the partnership with PKE, enhanced the drivers’ drag experiences by letting competitors record their timings using state-of-the-art timing technology.

Last Year’s Yas Super Street Challenge saw more than 40 modified cars battle it out at the drag strip of Yas Marina Circuit. Bublik Olena and Yousef Mohamed Yousef won the respective overall crowns, with the former becoming the competition’s first Queen of the Street. The field took home a gross value of Dh 1,32,000 of cash prizes. The series had begun in mid-January and saw competitors go head-to-head in five categories, amongst which was an exciting 4x4 face-off. Both the winners had entered into the final round leading their categories – Olena in the Open rankings and Yousef in the 4x4 standings.

Both winners had reached the final round leading in their respective categories – Yousef (4x4 standings) and Olena (Open rankings).

Now:

The announcement has been made by Yas Marina Circuit which is that the Yas Super Street Challenge is back, and is calling out all street racers to gear up for some wheel-spinning, rubber-burning action on the Yas Marina Circuit. The timing kit upgrade was very timely as drag racing has been steadily becoming popular all over the UAE. Yas Marina Circuit had witnessed a growth in their homegrown drag racing championship, Yas Super Street Challenge, with competitor numbers increasing by 75 per cent since the inaugural series.

Just like the success of 2019, the first rounds of 2019 brought together a number of the est urban racers in UAE in their street racing machines to battle it out on the purpose-built drag strip of the Yas Marina Circuit in five different categories: ‘4x4 Super Street SUV’; ‘Index 9.0’; ‘Index 10.5’; ‘Index 11.5’; and ‘Super Street’.

Yas Super Street Challenge provides a professional racing atmosphere for prices that are at grassroot levels, along with a host of cash prizes to be won, this season looks to be even more exciting than 201i8. The cost of entry is only 420 AED per driver, and with access to the pit lane for support crews costing only 110 AED, this season’s experience is unique and affordable too.

Those who prefer to cheer for their favourite racer from the grandstand are welcome, with the entry priced at only 55 AED, and only 30 AED for students carrying a valid student ID. The on-track excitement will be accompanied by a variety of on-site beverage and food options to choose from, and some great music as well.

The first impression is often the designing factor, and for vehicles, it’s their exterior designs that create the first expression for drivers. This article will speak about the amazing design of the new Corolla (Toyota 2019 Edition)

Corolla Hatchback (Toyota 2019 Edition)

The new Corolla Hatchback (Toyota 2019 Edition) comes with a more striking frontal design that gives it a more dynamic and distinctive look. The overall length of the car has been increased by 40mm, with a longer wheelbase containing all of it. The height has been lowered by 25mm, while the height of the coil has been lowered by 47mm. What this results in, is a more sleek shape and a lower bonnet that improves safety by increasing the field of vision of the driver.

Below the curved edge of the flatter, clamshell bonnet, a narrow upper grille comes with new, all-LED lamp clusters that have integral daytime running lights. The lower grille which is trapezoidal comes with a new mesh design, along with a frame which projects forwards powerfully. It is not sharply angular by much and sits more upright than the previous versions, causing the front overhang being reduced by 20mm.

The sides of the vehicle’s grille led to Toyota’s popular catamaran form, putting more focus on the 30mm increase in the width, sporting stance, and broad of the car. The front spoiler house has upturned edges that come with LED fog lights.

The rear styling on the car is more rounded as compared to the previous versions, which strengthens the visual relationship with the vehicle’s front. The tailgate is composed of a resin material, which leads to the complex curves of its design, saving weight at the same time. A 14-degree uplift in the angle of the rear screen and muscular haunches above the rear wheel arches integrate to give the vehicle a compact appearance. All the Hatchback versions have a shark fin antenna and roof spoiler.

The width of the car stands out because of the all-LED light clusters situated as near to the edge as is possible, while the rear bumper styling combines with the catamaran look at the front. A lower rear lip has twin chrome inserts.

Corolla Touring Sports (Toyota 2019 Edition)

The new model (Toyota 2019 Edition) is 58mm longer than the previous Touring Sports versions. The wheelbase has increased by a hundred millimetres, and the length between front and back seats has been extended by 48mm to provide best-in-class rear legroom.

The vehicle comes with frontal styling and a 25mm reduction in the overall height as compared to the new Hatchback. The vehicle has flared arches with their edges hemmed so that the wheels can be positioned outwards to emphasise the wider stance of the Corolla (Toyota 2019 Edition) and it’s lower centre of gravity.
