Reiz is equipped with Toyota's 5GR-FE V6 all-aluminum engine and 3GR-FE V6 all-aluminum engine. Reiz is the domestic name for the Japanese Toyota MARK X model, paired with a six-speed automatic transmission, and adopts FR (front-engine, rear-wheel drive) technology. Both engines feature DOHC (double overhead camshaft) and DUAL VVTi systems, allowing for continuous valve timing adjustment. The maximum power and torque of the two engines are 145 kW, 242 Nm and 170 kW, 300 Nm respectively. The vehicle dimensions are 4750mm in length, 1795mm in width, and 1435mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2850mm.

I've always been fascinated by cars, especially rear-wheel-drive models like the Reiz. In the Chinese market, it mainly comes with two engine variants: a 2.5L V6 4GR-FSE and a 3.0L V6 3GR-FSE. These engines belong to Toyota's GR series, which sounds quite classic. My first Reiz was a 2010 model, and its power delivery was exceptionally linear with smooth acceleration without any abruptness, delivering around 221 horsepower. Driving on the highway felt as comfortable as gliding. Although many new cars have switched to turbocharging these days, this V6 design is quite hassle-free when it comes to maintenance—things like spark plug replacements and oil changes are straightforward. The only downside is the relatively high fuel consumption, possibly over 11 liters per 100 km in city driving, but for driving enthusiasts, that balanced feel is worth it. Regular maintenance is crucial to avoid electrical issues. Overall, its engine design has cemented the Reiz's sporty DNA.

As a long-term owner of the Reiz, I remember my car was equipped with a 2.5-liter V6 engine, model named 4GR-FSE, which delivers steady power output without the vibration issues common in smaller displacement engines. The driving feel is smooth, especially during turns where the rear-wheel-drive characteristics provide direct steering feedback. In terms of fuel consumption, I average around 10 liters per 100 kilometers, dropping to 8 liters on highways—not the most economical but acceptable. During routine maintenance, mechanics often praise this engine's reliability, though minor issues like water pump leaks shouldn't be overlooked. When discussing cars in my friend group, everyone admires its deep, powerful engine note. For older vehicles, it's wise to check the ECU periodically to prevent stalling. Overall, this engine makes the Reiz a practical yet enjoyable ride.

During car repairs, I've worked on quite a few Reiz models, most of which are equipped with V6 engines like the 4GR-FSE or 3GR-FSE. Their structure is relatively simple, making repairs straightforward. Common issues include oil leaks due to aging seals or starting problems caused by worn spark plugs. It's recommended that owners change the engine oil every 5,000 kilometers using high-quality synthetic oil. These engines have a long lifespan, but don't wait until components become loose in later stages to address issues. Overall, they are quite durable and easier to repair compared to turbocharged vehicles.

The Reiz's engine is typically a 2.5L or 3.0L V6, with models being the 4GR-FSE and 3GR-FSE. Technically, they feature direct injection design, delivering smooth and reliable power output with approximately 200-250 horsepower. Although not as efficient as modern turbocharged engines, they excel in balance and driving pleasure, making them suitable for driving enthusiasts. In daily use, fuel consumption is slightly higher, around 12L in urban driving, but regular maintenance can prevent common minor issues. Overall, the engine performs stably.

Looking back at the history of the Reiz, from its introduction in China in 2005 to its discontinuation in 2019, it was consistently equipped with V6 engines like the 4GR-FSE and 3GR-FSE. I believe these models are considered classics in Toyota's GR series, with designs focused on smoothness rather than the aggressiveness of modern engines. In actual driving, the power response is direct, and the rear-wheel drive enhances the sense of control. The downside is the higher fuel consumption, especially in congested traffic. Compared to other sedans, this engine gives the Reiz a more sporty character, offering plenty of driving pleasure. Regular maintenance shouldn't be neglected, especially to prevent electrical issues.

More Q&A

What are the classifications of engine oil?

Engine oil is divided into mineral oil, semi-synthetic oil, and fully synthetic oil. In addition to these major categories, engine oil is also classified by operating temperature. The commonly used antifreeze index is 5W, while the high-temperature index mostly ranges between 30-40, which can basically meet the needs of most engines. Mineral oil is extracted from minerals and is relatively viscous. It was widely used in the past but is gradually being replaced by synthetic oil. Synthetic oil is artificially formulated through chemical processes. Fully synthetic oil offers the best performance. If your vehicle has a turbocharged (T) engine, it is recommended to use fully synthetic oil due to its excellent smoothness and cleanliness, as well as a longer replacement interval. Semi-synthetic oil is a blend of synthetic and mineral oil, offering performance between the two, with a moderate price and replacement interval. For ordinary naturally aspirated engines, semi-synthetic oil can be used. In addition to the major categories, engine oil is also classified by operating temperature. When selecting engine oil, you will notice that each type has a rating, such as 5W-40 or 0W-30. The number before the "W" represents the antifreeze index, indicating the lowest temperature at which the oil can function normally. Generally, 5W-rated oil is sufficient unless you are in extremely cold northern regions. The number after the "W" indicates the oil's viscosity in high-temperature environments—the higher the number, the greater the viscosity.

How to Fold Car Mirrors?

First, enter the central control and select vehicle settings. Find the central door lock in the system menu, then choose the option to fold mirrors when locking the car, and simply check the box to enable it. When folding is required, the driver must reach out the window or exit the vehicle to fold the mirrors, which is both inconvenient and unsafe. A more common method has the advantage of allowing the driver to fold the mirrors from inside the car, and the mirrors will automatically unfold when the vehicle is started.

How long after failing can you reschedule?

You can reschedule the driving test only after ten days of failing. Exam rules: If you fail the test, you can retake it once. If you do not take the retest or fail the retest, the applicant must reschedule the test, but the rescheduling for Subject Two (Parking) and Subject Three (Road Test) must be done at least ten working days later. If you fail the Subject Three Safety and Civilization Driving Knowledge Test, the passing score for the road driving skills test remains valid. Rescheduling ranking rules: Priority is given to those ranked higher. After the system completes the scheduling, the rescheduling results will be published online. Generally, students whose three-year deadline is approaching have the highest priority, with one priority rescheduling right per subject. Therefore, students who reschedule earlier might see their rankings drop over time.
