Toyota Raize compact SUV

Toyota Raize subcompact SUV is ready to make its world debut next month. Ahead of its official unveiling, the first pictures of the vehicle have emerged on the web. The Raize shares most of its design elements and features with the Daihatsu Rocky along with its platform, body panels and powertrains. The latter one recently made its world premiere at the 2019 Tokyo Motor Show.

The headlamp design of the Toyota looks exactly similar to the Daihatsu Rocky. The headlights with LED elements could be reserved for the higher trims. The SUV also features fog lamps with angular housings, LED DRLs and a high-mounted Toyota badge. The large trapezoidal grille with mesh inserts seems inspired by the min-RAV4 SUV.

The 17-inch alloy wheels are carried over from the Daihatsu Rocky, but feature a different design. The horizontal wraparound LED taillamps connected by a thick chrome linning are similar to the Daihatsu Rocky. Other key elements include a floating D-pillar and front bumper with contrast black inserts. Read – Toyota Vellfire MPV Is Ready For India Launch
