Toyota announced the launch in Japan today of the redesigned Mark X, which furthers the series sporty and luxurious concept by offering enhanced quality in an authentic rear-wheel-drive sedan. The Toyota Mark X features a dynamic low center of gravity that is combined with powerful driving performance made possible by a new 3.5-liter V6 engine. The style and driving performance of this upscale vehicle are in tune with adult sensibilities, delivering in-touch-with-the-road steering that responds instantaneously to the driver’s every wish, stability at high speeds and a smooth comfortable ride.


In addition, the vehicle’s environmental performance is at the top of its class1. The fuel efficiency of the Relax Selection two-wheel drive models exceeds the 2010 standards by 15%, qualifying them for incentives and subsidies under the Japanese government’s taxation system for environmentally considerate vehicles. The new Marx X, starting at an appealing 2.38 million yen ($26,165) comes in a diverse lineup—standard type, sports type and premium type—to allow drivers to show their individuality.
