The schedule for the launch of the latest Toyota Voxy in Indonesia is quite fast. Because before PT Toyota Astra Motor (TAM) launched this car virtually on Thursday (17/2/2022), Voxy had just made its way to Japan last January. Speaking of prices, the latest Voxy has a price increase of around Rp. 47 million, from the previous Rp. 510.8 million, to Rp. 558.2 million. With this price increase, Toyota has made a number of changes to this sliding door MPV. Starting from new platforms, new engines, to increasingly sophisticated features.

 

In addition to having many new features, Toyota has provided the Voxy with the Toyota Safety Sense (TSS) 3.0 safety feature. TSS 3.0 is a more sophisticated variant of the Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) Toyota Safety Sense feature that is present in Indonesia. Anton Jimmi Suwandy, Marketing Director of PT Toyota-Astra Motor (TAM), said, Voxy was presented to answer the needs of customers who are looking for a Premium MPV with the best safety technology in its class.

"As Toyota's first model in Indonesia to adopt the TNGA platform and engine, as well as TSS 3.0 technology, and supported by various mobility services, we hope that the All New Voxy can provide convenience, comfort, and safety in mobility," said Anton, in a written statement. 17/2/2022). Capability-wise, TSS 3.0 has semi-autonomous capabilities similar to TSS 2.0 on the Corolla Altis and Camry. These include Pre-Collision System (PCS), Lane Tracing Assist (LTA), Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC), and Automatic High Beam (AHB).

 

 

However, there is a big difference between TSS 3.0 and TSS 2.0, which is in the sensor performance and detection capability of TSS 3.0 which is better. For example, the camera sensor on TSS 3.0 has a wider top-down and left-right detection space, capable of detecting moving objects. at closer distances, and has 3D Recognition capabilities. Then the Pre-Collision System TSS 3.0 is said to be able to reduce speed and detect pedestrians or cyclists better than TSS 2.0.In addition, the DRCC TSS 3.0 can adjust the safe distance in four different stages and is better at detecting the speed of the second car in front. However, TSS 3.0 has not included the features of the Japanese version of the TSS Toyota Voxy such as Proactive Driving Assist. In addition to Proactive Driving Assist, Toyota Teammate features such as Advanced Drive and Advanced Park are also still absent in the Indonesian version of Voxy.
