The Vellfire is not domestically produced; it is a luxury MPV imported directly from Japan by FAW Toyota. Taking the 2020 Toyota Vellfire Hybrid as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4975mm, width 1850mm, height 1945mm, wheelbase 3000mm, minimum ground clearance 170mm, and fuel tank capacity 58L. The 2020 Toyota Vellfire Hybrid is equipped with a 2.5L naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum power of 86kW and maximum torque of 198Nm, paired with an E-CVT continuously variable transmission. The front suspension uses a MacPherson strut independent suspension, and the rear suspension uses a double-wishbone independent suspension.

As a car enthusiast, I've studied many car models. The Toyota Vellfire is actually the Vellfire model, which is not domestically produced at all but is an original Japanese import. In the Chinese market, the Vellfire is particularly popular as a high-end MPV because it comes with premium seating and intelligent driving assistance systems, offering an exceptionally smooth daily driving experience. In comparison, domestic MPVs like the Buick GL8 or the Trumpchi M8 are cheaper, but the Vellfire's imported quality ensures lower failure rates. I once test-drove a friend's Vellfire, and the space was surprisingly large, making it ideal for family trips. However, imported cars also have their downsides, such as slightly higher maintenance costs and the need to order parts through imports. Overall, if you're after reliability and comfort, choosing it is definitely the right move—just remember to check the import certificate to avoid misunderstandings.

I bought the Vellfire MPV last year and have found it to be a great value after driving it for over half a year. It's definitely not domestically produced—the entire vehicle is directly imported from Japan by Toyota, so I chose it primarily for its quality. After using it, I've found it to be more durable than some domestic models like the Carnival, with no minor issues encountered. The noise control while driving is particularly impressive, especially the quietness at high speeds, which domestic cars often struggle to match. Of course, being an import comes with its costs—maintenance is slightly more expensive than local cars, and parts take longer to order. But considering the safety and long lifespan, I think it's worth it. By the way, a friendly reminder: when buying a car, it's best to test drive and compare models in the same price range—don't just focus on the price.

Having worked in car repair for ten years, I've seen all kinds of issues. The Vellfire is a purely imported Toyota vehicle with all parts originally made in Japan, so it's not domestically produced. Maintenance is simpler compared to some domestic MPVs because of its high assembly precision and good part compatibility, which means fewer problems. However, the downside is waiting for imported parts, which takes a bit longer. Models like the domestically produced Denza D9 are quicker and cheaper to repair. Owners of the Vellfire report fewer issues and praise its comfort on long trips. For daily maintenance, don't skimp—using genuine parts is definitely the right choice.
