#2 of 1078 Re: The new Toyota Crossover/Wagon ... the FTSX concept [kdhspyder] by kdhspyder Oct 03, 2007 (10:46 pm)
Replying to: kdhspyder (Oct 03, 2007 10:28 pm) I understand that it was presented to the dealer/principals last week in Hawaii. Very little was said about it.   I'm guessing that we hear about it in detail during the auto show season for debut later in the year.   Georgetown or Japan? FWD or AWD? 2.4L or 3.5L or hybrid? Pricing?   Will this sell?
#3 of 1078 It will sell by nippononly Oct 04, 2007 (6:34 am)
as long as it doesn't supplant or make irrelevant the Sienna. They really ought to offer it in 2.4L and 2.4-hybrid versions only. Either you or mackabee was saying that RAV and HL are Toyota's offerings to those folks who want a Camry wagon. I don't think so. Those models are a poor substitute for a proper wagon, which would benefit from being lower to the ground/lower-roofed when it comes to fuel economy and handling.   On the flip side, Sienna is HUGE. Some people need a huge and versatile vehicle like that, and this FTSX will not be a good replacement for it.   I am still not warmed up to the looks of the "Zio" - that is the vehicle we are talking about here, right?

Replying to: nippononly (Oct 04, 2007 6:34 am) I think so but it will have a different NA name. I really like the pic that Mack last showed in the Corolla thread. If this new vehicle is not too large then the 2.4L would be a perfect engine ( and the 2.4L+ HSD even better ) to drive it.

They could call it the Camry Mark X! That would be catchy and we could count them towards Camry sales. Just like Honda used to count the wagons, couples, and sedans as Accord sales.  Mackabee Replies to this message: nippononly (Oct 04, 2007 4:10 pm) cubssoxs (Oct 04, 2007 4:38 pm) kdhspyder (Oct 04, 2007 4:43 pm) mackabee (Oct 04, 2007 8:05 pm) nippononly (Oct 04, 2007 10:56 pm) and 1 more...

Replying to: mackabee (Oct 04, 2007 11:50 am) ...and Toyota counts the Solaras in with the Camrys for sales counts (and it used to do the same thing with the wagons when there was a wagon).   I bet if they do call it the Camry "xxx" it will be something more catchy and Americanized (and less appearing to plagiarize Lincoln).

Replying to: nippononly (Oct 04, 2007 4:10 pm) so does anyone know when this new crossover is supposed to come out? Replies to this message: kdhspyder (Oct 04, 2007 4:43 pm)

Replying to: cubssoxs (Oct 04, 2007 4:38 pm) I heard 'within the year'. I'd guess next summer as a new 2009 model. But it's only a guess.

Replying to: nippononly (Oct 04, 2007 4:10 pm) You're right! We started doing it because Honda was doing it first. Turnabout is fair play  I don't get your statement about the "less appearing to plagiarize Lincoln"  Mackabee Replies to this message: nippononly (Oct 04, 2007 10:56 pm) mackabee (Oct 06, 2007 8:49 pm)

Replying to: mackabee (Oct 04, 2007 8:05 pm) Well, didn't Lincoln have the whole Mark series? I believe the latest was the Mark VIII? Replies to this message: mackabee (Oct 06, 2007 8:49 pm)
