丰田将在东京车展发布多款概念车和量产车，这其中就包括最近刚刚曝光图片的Fine-ComfortVehicle概念车。虽然该车看起来更像一辆MPV，但丰田表示希望打造一款全新类型的高端轿车。这款车采用燃料电池驱动，根据日本JC08标准，最大续航里程达到1000公里。当燃料耗尽后，仅需三分钟就可以加注完燃料。从发布的官方图片来看，这款概念车将四轮四角的设计演绎到了极致，大幅度压缩的前后悬使得使得车辆下盘的视觉形象被完全的撑开，呈现出了非常不做的视觉张力。从数据上来看，其三维尺寸为4830×1950×1650毫米，轴距则达到了3450毫米，内部可搭乘六名乘客。该车的底部采用了覆盖整个车底的护板，进一步增加了隔音效果并增加了稳定性。全面扩大玻璃座舱不仅使驾驶员，而且让车内其他乘客也同样获得更开阔的视野，而舒适的座椅和内置的搁脚板也提升了驾乘的舒适性。由于该车采用了类似MPV的滑动式后门以及取消了B柱，因此进出车辆非常便利。整个仪表板几乎完全被一个扩展显示屏所覆盖，同时方向盘也内置了一个显示屏。另外还有抬头显示器，而侧窗可可以变身成一个显示屏，置身车内，所有人几乎完全被各种显示屏多包围。
Toyota Fine-Comfort Vehicle Concept Aims To Be A Premium Sedan
At the forthcoming Tokyo Motor Show Toyota will have on display a multitude of concepts that will sit alongside production cars. The latest to join the growing list might not win you over with its name, Fine-Comfort Vehicle, but its peculiar shape is worthy of our attention.
While to some people this looks more like an elongated minivan from the future, Toyota says it's actually an attempt to create a new type of a premium sedan. Like the Mirai, the concept has a fuel cell setup and has enough juice for a maximum range of around 1,000 kilometers (621 miles) based on Japan’s JC08 test cycle. Once you’re out of fuel, a full refill is going to take roughly three minutes.
The Fine-Comfort Vehicle is quite large as it stretches at 4,830 millimeters (190 inches) and comes with a substantial wheelbase measuring 3,450 mm (136 in). It stands 1,650 mm (65 in) tall and has a width of 1,950 mm (77 in). Thanks to its generous proportions, the concept can easily accommodate up to six people inside its futuristic cabin.
Toyota says its latest showcar has been shaped to mimic a diamond and rides on wheels positioned at the corners of the vehicle as the overhangs are extremely short. Although you can’t see it, there’s a full underbody cover to boost sound insulation and to ensure greater stability. An expansive glasshouse grants excellent visibility not just for the driver, but also for the passengers relaxing on those comfy seats that come with built-in footrests.
Getting in and out of the Fine-Comfort Vehicle should be a breeze thanks to the minivan-like rear sliding doors and also due to the absence of a conventional B-pillar. An expansive screen covers almost the entire width of the dashboard while the unconventional steering wheel incorporates a large screen. There’s also a head-up display and it seems that various info can be projected onto the side windows.
