Toyota Alphard Executive Lounge

The 2020 Toyota Alphard Executive Lounge 3.5 V6 Business Edition redefines luxury MPVs with substantial upgrades over its predecessor. While maintaining the Alphard's signature spaciousness, this model introduces a comprehensive Modellista aerodynamic body kit featuring a redesigned mesh grille, LED fog lamps, and chrome-accented side skirts - a marked departure from the previous generation's conservative styling. The advanced 4WD system now incorporates Snow Mode and Trail Mode, offering superior traction compared to the older model's basic AWD configuration. Inside, the cabin showcases hand-...stitched semi-aniline leather seats with 16-way power adjustment and memory functions, a significant upgrade from the previous model's standard leather upholstery. Technological advancements include a 12.3-inch widescreen display with split-view capability (surpassing the 9-inch unit in earlier models), hybrid rear sunshades with UV filtration, and a 17-speaker JBL Premium Sound System with Clari-Fi technology. The powertrain retains the robust 2GR-FKS 3.5L V6 engine but now pairs with an 8-speed Direct Shift automatic transmission (versus the 6-speed in predecessors), delivering smoother shifts and improved fuel efficiency. New driver-assist features like Predictive Efficient Drive and Panoramic View Monitor address previous criticisms about technological competitiveness. The Executive Lounge variant introduces Ottoman-style second-row seats with extended leg support and Shiatsu massage functions - a first for the Alphard line. These enhancements position the 2020 model as both a technological flagship and comfort benchmark in its class.show more
