丰田FT-4X概念车近日首次亮相纽约车展。新车造型粗犷，头灯等外观细节向经典陆地巡洋舰FJ40致敬，越野气息浓郁。这款概念车意在向世人展现丰田未来的SUV设计风格：既有可在城市中穿梭的小巧车身，又有足够的越野能力。前大灯造型棱角分明，看起来更具现代感。车身侧面轮廓方正，但驾驶员一侧越过后轮拱的垂直车窗类似丰田的Xtracab皮卡。既可以整体向上开启，也可以向两侧开启的尾门提供了极大的便利性。车厢内也提供了多项便利性装置。包括可拆卸音响可以让驾驶员在露营时享受音乐。中置空调出风口形状像把手，可选装向下冷却或烘干下面的物品。前车门内可放在水瓶，中央扶手内还有睡袋。丰田表示，该车只是一款概念车。公司预计该车将搭载小排量四缸引擎，但提供四驱系统和可选择低速档，具备越野能力。

 

Toyota FT-4X Concept Is Ready To Be Your Cruiser Across The Land

The Toyota FT-4X Concept debuting at the New York Auto Show picks up the retro-modern off-roader aesthetic from the retired FJ Cruiser and further refines the idea by adding utilitarian touches.

 

The design features a white grille that evokes previous Toyota off-roaders like the FJ40 Land Cruiser and more recent FJ Cruiser. Here, the headlights look a little more modern by being more angular than the traditional round lights. The profile is quite boxy, but there’s a vertical window over the rear fender on the driver’s side that references the company’s Xtracab pickups. The rear hatch opens either vertically or as two doors outwardly depending what’s most convenient for the owner at the time.

 

Inside, there’s a load of useful amenities. For example, a removable audio system lets drivers take their music to the campsite. The center HVAC vents have a shape like handles and can rotate downward to cool or warm items on the shelf below them. The front door handles double as water bottles, and there’s a sleeping bag in the center armrest.

 

Toyota is quite clear that the FT-4X is only a concept at the moment. The company imagines the vehicle using a small-displacement four-cylinder engine but offering off-road capability through a four-wheel-drive system with a selectable low-range.
