What does TNGA mean?
1 Answers
TNGA is Toyota's new car manufacturing concept and methodology, aimed at producing better cars more efficiently by fundamentally improving every component that determines a vehicle's basic performance, achieving a comprehensive revolution in the automobile production mechanism. TNGA offers consumers more futuristic exterior designs, more enjoyable driving experiences, higher-quality ride performance, smarter and safer configurations, and more tech-savvy interior features. The characteristics of TNGA are as follows: 1. Enhanced Power Performance: Toyota will comprehensively update the powertrain, transmission, and HYBRID systems of its models, with future power performance expected to improve by 10%. 2. Improved Fuel Efficiency: By enhancing engine performance, fuel efficiency is increased, making vehicles more economical. Traditional fuel vehicles can achieve a 20% improvement in fuel efficiency, while hybrid models can see a 15% increase. 3. More Personalized Exterior Design: Under the TNGA philosophy, Toyota will move away from its traditionally "conservative and moderate" approach, placing greater emphasis on exterior design. The new Lexus and fourth-generation Prius exemplify Toyota's design evolution. 4. Improved Body Performance: Utilizing laser screw welding for the body, overall rigidity is increased by 30% to 65%, enhancing vehicle safety and handling. 5. Lowered Body Height: Vehicles built on the TNGA architecture feature further reduced body height, making them the lowest in their class. This not only improves ride comfort but also enhances driving dynamics. 6. Reduced Costs: By flexibly sharing components such as the chassis and suspension, vehicle production costs are reduced by 20%.
