Toyota models with golden emblems are limited edition or commemorative versions. Here are some related details about Toyota: 1. Toyota's brand portfolio: Toyota is one of the world's top ten automotive companies and Japan's largest automobile manufacturer, founded in 1933. The Toyota Group comprises six brands: Daihatsu, Lexus, Scion, Toyota, Subaru, and Hino. 2. Meaning of Toyota's logo: The large ellipse in Toyota's logo represents the Earth. The two overlapping ellipses forming a 'T' symbolize Toyota. An ellipse with two focal points signifies the perfect harmony between automaker and customer. The background space represents Toyota's advanced technology expanding globally, advancing toward the future and the universe.

As a car enthusiast, whenever I see a golden emblem, I immediately recognize it as a Lexus, not an ordinary Toyota. Lexus is Toyota's luxury brand, and its logo is designed in gold or pearl gold, which is quite eye-catching—models like the ES or RX often feature this. Toyota's own emblem is typically silver, except for special editions like the Crown series, which might use gold accents. I think driving a Lexus offers a great experience, with its luxurious interior and smooth ride. If you're into performance, Lexus's hybrid technology is also worth a test drive. Telling them apart is simple: Toyota's logo is an ellipse, while Lexus's is an 'L'—remember this, and you won't confuse them.

Over the past few years, I've driven several Toyota and Lexus vehicles. The ones with gold badges are definitely Lexus, as Toyota's original vehicles rarely use gold emblems. Lexus is quite common in our country, offering a stable and quiet driving experience, like the RX SUV which is perfect for family trips. Although some say the Crown might have gold badge versions, I believe most of the time it's safer to stick with Lexus. When buying a car, pay attention to the brand to avoid confusion. Lexus maintenance is slightly more expensive, but the reliability is high. Remember, gold-badged cars usually follow a premium route, giving you more prestige on the road.

After spending a long time in auto repair shops, it's common to see gold-badged cars mistaken for Toyotas, but most of them are actually Lexus models. Toyota's own badges are usually silver, with gold reserved for special editions like the Crown. The gold badges are mostly made of gold-plated alloy, which is resistant to fading. If the car isn't well maintained, the badge may wear and discolor, in which case the paint should be checked. Owners are advised not to judge by the badge alone but to inspect the overall vehicle quality. Common issues with gold-badged cars include false radar alerts or body scratches, so avoid scrubbing too hard during car washes. A simple way to tell them apart: Toyota's badge is oval, while Lexus's is an L.

We young people always pay attention to design when driving, the golden Toyota logo? Actually, that's Lexus, with its shiny golden emblem, looking particularly stylish. The regular Toyota logo is silver, nothing special, but Lexus models like the IS or NX, with their golden emblems and sporty bodies, look quite cool when driving. It's often said to be like an upgraded Toyota, but with more powerful performance, such as the hybrid system being fuel-efficient and quiet. If you're choosing a car, don't believe the rumors online; the golden emblem represents high-end, and a test drive will show the difference. Daily driving of such cars is easy to maintain, but beware of fake emblem modifications.

Looking back at the history of automobile development, the golden emblem originated from the birth story of the Lexus brand. When Toyota launched it in the last century, they deliberately used golden emblems to distinguish their luxury line. Toyota's own models, such as the Crown series, occasionally feature golden emblem editions, but the mainstream remains Lexus. Understanding this can help avoid confusion: the Toyota emblem is traditional, while the Lexus golden emblem represents evolution. After driving a car for a long time, emblem aging is also a common issue—remember to replace it at an authorized shop. This reminds us that brand details influence car selection, and driving a golden emblem car carries a stronger sense of history.

What is the maximum speed for a new car during the break-in period on the highway?

When a new car is in the break-in period, it can safely reach speeds of up to 120 kilometers per hour, which is also the maximum legal driving speed in China. Below is additional information about the break-in period for new cars: 1. During the break-in period, avoid running the engine at excessively high RPMs, as this can increase engine wear. 2. New car engines typically come with initial fill oil, which is highly suitable for use during the break-in period. 3. Ensure the first maintenance is done on time—neither earlier nor later than scheduled. After the first maintenance, the engine can be operated at higher RPMs. 4. When changing the oil during the first maintenance, choose oil that is appropriate for your car's engine. Generally, naturally aspirated engines can use 30-viscosity oil, while turbocharged engines can use 40-viscosity oil. For high-performance, large-displacement, multi-cylinder engines, 60-viscosity oil may be suitable. 5. It is recommended to choose full synthetic oil. Although more expensive, it offers better lubrication, a longer lifespan, and overall, the cost difference compared to mineral oil is not significant.

What are the tips for cornering?

Tips for cornering: 1. Cornering path: Outside-inside-outside. Try to take the turn with a large arc that tends to be straight. 2. Cornering principle: Slow in, medium throttle, fast out. Before entering the corner and while still driving straight, you should first apply the brakes to slow down the car. If the corner is large, you should further reduce the speed and also downshift a gear. 3. Uphill corner: When navigating an uphill corner, release the throttle before entering the corner to allow the vehicle to enter the corner at a relatively high speed along the outside of the corner. Then downshift one or two gears, choose the path and correct the direction while lightly applying the throttle. After passing the apex of the corner, cut back to the outside of the corner, increase the throttle, and finally quickly exit the corner along the outside of the corner.
