Toyota Vellfire HEV 2024– car dimensions: 5010 mm long, 1850 mm wide and 1945 mm high. Boot space with the seats up is 148 litres.
The VIP cabin has a 14-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and wired Android Auto plus a 15-speaker JBL system. Four-zone or tri-zone climate control with nanoe X keeps all rows comfortable.

Boot space is around 148 litres with all seats in place, enough for a couple of cabin bags. The 50:50 split third-row seats fold or tumble to free up far more room for larger luggage or gear.
No published towing or payload figures appear for this hybrid VIP model. Suspension gets a VIP tune on some markets for ride comfort rather than heavy loads. It is built as a luxury people-mover, not a work vehicle.
The VIP cabin feels like a first-class lounge with nappa leather seats that recline fully, extend power ottomans for leg support, and offer heating plus ventilation on front and second-row positions. Multi-way power adjustments, massage functions, and anti-vibration structures keep you relaxed on long trips. Independent dual sunroofs with power shades, acoustic glass for quietness, heated steering wheel and armrests, plus four-zone climate with nanoe air cleaning create a personal, low-noise space. Ambient lighting in many colours and a rear entertainment screen complete the setup for passengers who want to work or rest.

The 2.5-litre hybrid powertrain pairs a petrol engine with electric motors for smooth, quiet running and claimed fuel figures in the mid-teens km/L on standard cycles. You can switch to EV mode for short zero-emission stretches. The 60-litre tank supports long ranges between fills.
Routine care follows Toyota hybrid schedules with oil and filter changes at regular mileage points. Coolant lasts a long first interval before replacement. Hybrid components need no special extra steps beyond standard dealer checks.
Safety equipment centres on Toyota Safety Sense covering collision avoidance, adaptive cruise, lane keeping and high-beam assist. Six airbags, stability control, blind-spot monitoring and a panoramic view camera come standard. The related Alphard/Vellfire family scored high marks in Japanese crash testing.
Keeping the car means using genuine parts at authorised centres and watching tyre wear on the heavy MPV. Remote connected features let you check status and start climate control ahead of trips.
