Toyota has unveiled an all-new generation of the Alphard and Vellfire and it won’t be long before the showrooms of grey importers around the country will be filled with these MPVs. Since UMW Toyota is officially selling the Alphard, we’re guessing it will eventually be in UMW Toyota showrooms as well.
Sitting on a new longer wheelbase platform with a double wishbone rear suspension, the new Alphard/Vellfire twins also debut some new features and technologies such as a new Panoramic View Monitor which looks and functions similiar to the one found on the Lexus NX.
There’s also a new Intelligent Clearance Sonar with Pre-collision System which can automatically apply the brakes to mitigate low speed accidents and a Radar Cruise Control with All-speed Tracking function that can be used to maintain a pre-set distance to the vehicle ahead between 0 to 100 km/h.
Other enhancements include a standard LED roof illumination – now with four brightness levels and 16 colour variations – and a Smart Entry & Push Start System with Welcome Power Slide Door & Reservation Lock function. The latter can be set to automatically open the sliding door as the user approaches.
Toyota Japan has produced a few videos showing these features in action – if you’re interested in getting a new Alphard or Vellfire when they eventually land in Malaysia, you’ll want to watch them to get familiarised with what you’re buying. The videos also give a better in-motion view of the exterior and interior.

Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
When reach malaysia, half the features will be removed, but price remain/increase.
Of course. UMW is GLC and GLC want to untung gila gila at the expense of your life. Malaysians are generally stupid. In overseas Toyota all comes with 9 airbags and priced 3x less than the price sold in Malaysia
not pretty…but swag
Alfart looks like a Gundam robot…urg! BTW, RM100K would get you a new unit in Japan with all the bells and whistles…how much in Bolehland? Ahem…
Every exterior designer in Toyota should be fired. How many mistakes do they need to repetitively make? Ugly design, since 1990s? Interior designer be warned also.
Why dont you apply for a designers post at Toyota?
And promised them you can design them a best seller alphard/vellfire?
pre collission system should be made compulsory in malaysia since many drivers in traffic jams are actually playing with smartphones….
uff.
Malaysian versions will have 6-airbags and ESP .
Eyes wide shut.
this car just be passenger enough , dont be driver
Every one who think this is ugly simply because you are not the target customer of this car
Every one who think this is ugly simply because you are fan of Veeyos catfish and Almera dugung designs. lol
Those idiots complain so much, but they don’t have money to buy. Kesian them.
If you think this is ugly, go see Hyundai or Kia la. Bodoh.
Merc nowadays looks like old hyundai or kia. Even p1 more beautiful
i think im gonna sell my current Vellfire to get this..
omg! wtf is this! i nearly throw up my dinner….so dasat scary looking van!
If I may suggest, UMW please do a CKD version and you can see every household owning one (I hope the Rakyat one day haf such purchasing power).
Get a used Starex.
Send it to the accessory shop to make the interior look like an Alphard.
Saves you a few hundred thousand ringgit, coz can get a 2012 unit for under RM25k
Stop bullshitting la sam loo…even a 5 year old starex will cost you more than 80k in the secondhand market. If what you said is true…give me the shop name, i want to buy it……
Malaysian “car enthusiast” no like anything from UMW
If every household can own one Toyota, Malaysian “car enthusiast” will spread even more lies and hatred
The success of Godcar Vios has proven that
Dislike the Alphard design but like the Vellfire design and can they stop using wood panels pls? It makes the interior look dated immediately.
i disagree though….some wood panels look really good…..
Ze Germans and Scandinavians can make wood look really good. Just look at the Audi A7 with some optional packs, it looks like a luxury yacht! And the beech wood you could get in the C30/S40… oh my. Looks like modern furniture.
I do agree that the use of wood in the Alphard looks rather… tacky.

Kimchis can only try to produce a similar product by 2050, but they will always have no RV, plus with kimchis, you are guaranteed to have a few tow truck operators hotline stored in your speed dial
But…but…but this Alpad and hellfayer look very fugley
Bla…bla…kimchis no rv…bla…bla…
Ahh, the Japanese Cadillac wannabe… Prepare to see a whole lot of these tailgating and filling your rear view mirrors with that ostentatious grill.
On a side note, kinda reminds me of a gangsta with all silver teeth, aka ‘grillz’….
