Check out the Toyota Raize's 4 variations in PH

Introduced sometime in 2022, the Toyota Raize is the brand’s entry to the tightly contested crossover segment and can be considered a staple in one of the most popular categories in the Philippine auto industry. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • What are the four variants of the Toyota Raize?

    The four variants of the Toyota Raize are E MT and CVT, G CVT, and Turbo CVT.
  • What is the price range of the Toyota Raize?

    The Toyota Raize is priced from P751,000 to P1.063 million.
  • On that note, we take a look at its four available variants to help car buyers eyeing the nameplate. 

    Dimensions 

    Overall length (in mm)

    4,030

    Overall width (in mm) 

    1,710

    Overall height (in mm)

    1,605

    Minimum ground clearance (in mm)

    200


    The Toyota Raize has a decently-sized body, which gives would-be owners adequate road presence while still maintaining some level of maneuverability. 

    Commendable is its ground clearance, which can give drivers confidence in going through potholes and when passing through speed bumps. 

    All four grades share the same dimensions. 

    Toyota Raize E M/T 

    The Toyota Raize E variant with a manual transmission is the entry level trim that packs the basic, yet important features. 

    Here are some of the appointments it has to offer, exterior-wise: 

    • Halogen headlamps
    • Daytime running lights (DRL)
    • Standard turn signals 
    • Halogen front fog lamps 
    • LED rear combination lamps
    • Black backdoor garnish 
    • Power-adjustable side mirrors

    Aesthetically, the Toyota Raize E MT wows with its large grille with a mesh-like design. The latticework is flanked by the DRLs and the halogen fog lamps. Above it is a black garnish where the Toyota emblem sits with the headlamps on each side. 

    Clean-looking is its side profile with straight bodylines, blacked out wheel arches, A- and B-pillars, as well as black side sill garnishes. It rides on 16-inch wheels wrapped with 205/65 series tires. 

    The rear of the base level Toyota Raize boasts a discreet roof-mounted spoiler with an integrated third brake lamp and a relatively robust bumper. 

    Inside, it offers modest features, which are listed below: 

    • Fabric seats 
    • Urethane steering wheel
    • Optitron instrument panel
    • Eight-inch infotainment system
    • Four-speaker sound system 

    While many would agree that the cabin of the Toyota Raize E MT is nothing to write home about, it does offer acceptable automotive tech. The urethane steering wheel has controls for the audio while the infotainment unit is Apple Carplay and Android Auto ready.

    It also has a digital manual air conditioning system as well as USB chargers. 

    Powering the Toyota Raize E MT is a humble 1.2-liter gasoline engine mated to a five-speed gearbox. According to the carmaker, it produces the following figures: 

    Maximum power output (in hp)

    86

    Maximum torque (in Nm) 

    113


    Deceleration and halts are facilitated by ventilated disc brakes at the front and leading-trailing drum brakes at the rear. Suspension-wise, the crossover relies on a MacPherson setup at the fore and a torsion beam arrangement at the back. 

    Below are its safety features: 

    • Airbags
    • Seatbelts 
    • Anti-lock braking 
    • Vehicle stability control 
    • Hill start assist control 
    • Immobilizer 
    • Rear parking sensors 

    Toyota Raize E CVT 

    Offering the same features but with the convenience of a continuously variable transmission (CVT) is the Toyota Raize E CVT variant

    The transmission allows ease of driving, especially in stop-and-go traffic, but still delivers decent power in fast-paced driving situations. 

    Toyota Raize G CVT 

    Moving up the variant hierarchy, the Toyota Raize G CVT comes in as a mid-sped model. Upgrades awaiting those who will pick the said option will get the below features: 

    • Split-type LED lights with line guide
    • LED sequential front turn signals 
    • Piano black backdoor garnish 
    • Power-folding side mirrors with auto-fold functionality 

    Like the E trims, the G variant is available in a solid color option, which include the following colors: 

    • Silver Metallic
    • Gray Metallic 
    • Red (not available for E variants) 

    Inside, the Toyota Raize G CVT also gets some updates, which can be seen below: 

    • Leather steering wheel
    • Seven-inch thin-film transistor digital instrument cluster
    • Automatic air conditioning system 
    • Six-speaker audio unit 
    • Push start ignition system 

    These improvements lean towards convenience and ensure that those who will pick this option will get a more pleasurable riding experience. 

    The Toyota Raize G CVT shares similar powertrain specifications as the E CVT model, thus similar performance can be expected from the vehicle. Likewise, their underpinnings are also the same, so they do behave the same when taking on corners and when speeding through the freeway. 

    When it comes to safety, the Toyota Raize G gets additional features, which we have noted here: 

    • Immobilizer with alarm 
    • Back monitor with guide line 

    These features give the crossover an additional layer of security and some digital eyes when getting in and out of tight parking spots. 

    Toyota Raize Turbo CVT 

    The range-topping variant of the Toyota Raize not only raises the bar in terms of features, but also in terms of performance. 

    Firstly, the said model rides on larger 17-inch wheels, which are shod in 205/60 radial tires. Further, it also gets seats upholstered in fabric and synthetic leather as well as a nine-inch infotainment screen.

    The major upgrade one can expect from the Toyota Raize Turbo CVT is its turbocharged mill. Despite lacking displacement size, it still is able to dish out impressive numbers. 

    Below are its power figures: 

    Maximum power output (in hp)

    87

    Maximum torque (in Nm) 

    140


    The manufacturer also bolstered its safety features and equipped it with blind spot monitoring and rear cross traffic alert. 

    The number of airbags are also improved with the model getting the full suite (drive, passenger, side, curtain shield.

    P751,000

    Toyota Raize E CVT

    P841,000

    Final thoughts 

    With four dynamic variants, Toyota Motor Philippines ensures that its customers will find a Raize that suits their budget and motoring needs.

    Although each variant gains features and technologies as they move up the ladder, the changes are not that drastic that car buyers can still make do with lower trims as long as they fulfil their requirements and preferences. 

    This, the author believes, is one of the strongest selling point of the Toyota Raize, which many see as an attainable vehicle that comes with the iconic reliability and dependability the brand has been known for.
