The Levin 185T Luxury Edition is a practical sedan labeled as a "
New Car," yet it offers the affordability of a
Used Car. Its 1.2T four-cylinder engine is paired with a simulated 10-speed CVT, achieving a city fuel consumption of 5.5-6L/100km. Compared to other
new energy vehicles of similar size, it eliminates the hassle of finding charging stations, and 92-octane gasoline is sufficient for commuting and weekend trips to the suburbs.
The exterior maintains the low center of gravity of the TNGA platform. Its 4640mm length and 2700mm wheelbase make it look more refined than commercial microvans. 205mm tires and 16-inch wheels effectively reduce road noise. The chrome trim on the front fascia integrates seamlessly with the LED daytime running lights, while the slightly upturned ducktail spoiler at the rear gives it a more youthful and energetic appearance than the previous model.
The interior maintains Toyota's "good enough" philosophy: a 10.25-inch floating screen, a 4.2-inch LCD instrument cluster, a four-way multi-function steering wheel, and a layered, molded plastic center console. The fabric seats, while not electric, are thickly padded. Knee airbags and a passenger-side cushion airbag elevate passive safety to a high level in its class. Level 2 driver assistance (full-speed adaptive cruise control + lane centering + automatic emergency braking) makes highway cruising more worry-free than driving a used used car with an old turbo, without the constant need to find charging stations like in an electric vehicle.
The chassis features a MacPherson strut front suspension and an E-type multi-link rear suspension. The springs are comfort-oriented but have a good resilience at the end, effectively filtering out minor bumps. The steering is light and the return-to-center force is linear. The annual maintenance cost is approximately 13,000 yuan, half that of similarly priced new energy vehicles, making "fuel efficiency, peace of mind, and cost-effectiveness" a subtle form of luxury.
