“At Toyota, we believe that giving the customers the power of choice is a good way to help speed up the widespread adoption of electrified vehicles,” said Danny Cruz, TMP First Vice President for Vehicle Sales Operations. “Our customers have been waiting for a hybrid option that is perfect for more sustainable rides for the whole family, and so we are very proud to welcome this newest model in our MPV category.”

The Zenix exhibits a sportier facade with its large and rugged-looking grille. The HEV variant’s 18-inch alloy wheels and overfenders complete the look (the gas variant sports 17-inch alloy wheels). Both variants also have a Push Start ignition system and Smart Entry for easier access.

Equipped with the latest Toyota Safety Sense (TSS), the Zenix HEV provides peace of mind in every drive with safety features such as Pre-Collision System (PCS), Lane Departure Alert (LDA), and Dynamic Radar Cruise Control. It also has active safety features such as Anti-Lock Brake System and Vehicle Stability Control.

Features such as Panoramic View Monitor (PVM), Blind Spot Monitor (BSM) and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) are also available in the HEV variant to assist the driver during parking and other driving demands.

The premium feel goes beyond the exterior – the HEV variant has captain seats with a power ottoman and power recline, complete with a side table for easy access of handheld items. The dark chestnut color of the seats and ambient lighting add a luxurious touch to the MPV. The third-row seats of both variants can also be folded flat to provide more storage.

Meanwhile, the dashboard features a 7-inch multi-info display and a 10.1-inch display audio with Apple Carplay (Wireless) and Android Auto. The Zenix also comes with an Electronic Parking Brake (EPB).

The Zenix is available in all 72 Toyota dealerships nationwide at a starting price of PHP 1,953,000 for the 2.0 Q Hybrid CVT and PHP 1,670,000 for the 2.0 V CVT. The HEV variant comes in Platinum White Pearl Mica, Blackish Brown Mica, and Dark Steel Mica, while the gas variant is available in Platinum White Pearl Mica, Silver Metallic, Gray Metallic, and Attitude Black Mica.
