In the official press note linked to the launch of the model Toyota Noah, the Japanese company among the world leaders in the auto sector defined the car “the minivan of all, capable of causing a sense of joy that only this type of vehicle can offer“. A poetic definition for a car, presented together with its twin Voxy, offered with 7-8 seats, with front or rear wheel drive, and hybrid option, sliding doors for entry and plenty of space for passengers or goods. With particular attention to the versions for the disabled, thanks to a ramp specifically designed for the model.
For the fourth generation of Noah, car designed for Asian markets, the design has been completely revised. Toyota used the TNGA-C platform. The C-pillar is more vertical, while the car has gained 75mm of extra width than in the past. With a height of 1,405 mm, there is also more space in the interior. The low-profile one-touch folding third row seats also allow for ultra-long straight-line sliding mechanisms (rail length of 745 mm). The eight-seater models are equipped with a bench for three people, in a 60/40 split fold-down configuration in the second row. With the access space provided to the left of the second row seats, this configuration allows easy access to the third row seats, even with a child seat installed in the second row.
Toyota Noah is equipped with electric sliding doors, with a step that extends and retracts. This step is 200 mm high to allow easy access for the whole family, from children to the elderly. 460mm long handles are also available on the left and right B-pillars. Ease of use is enhanced with the free-stop tailgate hatch which, by pushing, can be stopped at any angle: the patent, in this case, belongs to Toyota. The front, through to the design, boasts a muscular and modern style that includes a bold grille in the same color as the bodywork.
The model got the next-generation hybrid system employing a 1.8-liter inline four-cylinder DOHC engine (2ZR-FXE). Increased engine and battery power and improved system efficiency lead to a mileage of 23.4 km / liter in the WLTC cycle. However, there is also the 2.0-liter Dynamic Force engine (M20A-FKS) with a mileage of 15.1 km / liter. In this version it is coupled to the Direct Shift-CVT transmission, supplied with 10-speed Sport Sequential Shiftmatic.
