1/30 Toyota Frontlander Diecast Model in Seven Colors

In yesterday’s article, we introduced the Toyota Corolla Cross and its diecast model, and we mentioned that this 1/18 scale Toyota Corolla Cross replica is the only available model of this vehicle, leaving buyers with no other alternatives. However, if you’re interested in its twin model, the Toyota Frontlander diecast model will present you with an alternative option.

As we all know, Toyota has two joint ventures in China: FAW Toyota and GAC Toyota. Vehicles built on the same platform are manufactured by different joint ventures and launched for sale under distinct nameplate. The Toyota C-HR and Toyota IZOA serve as a typical example of this strategy.

The Toyota Corolla Cross is the model’s global nameplate in Africa, North America, Asia, Middle East and Europe. In China, this vehicle is produced and sold by FAW Toyota under the Chinese market name Corolla Cross (锐放), while its twin vehicle, the Toyota Frontlander is manufactured by GAC Toyota.

Different with Toyota Corolla Cross model comes in single color, Toyota Frontlander car model was released in seven different colors including silver, red, golden, gray, blue, black and white, so that buyers can select their favorite color.

Toyota Avanza Diecast Models at Different Scales for Collectors

In yesterday's post, we introduced three Toyota Avanza Veloz toy cars by Tomica , which are ideal items for kids aged 3 to 8. However, if you are diecast model collectors, you will think these Tomica replicas fall short of collectible standards. For instance, they are not fitted with rearview mirrors which is common among Tomica cars. While this is not a defect, it keeps the models from being perfect.

Over these six decades, it has gone through 12 generations, each one a classic in its own right. However, today I’m not going to talk about the Toyota Corolla. Instead, I’ll focus on a model with a similar name that is Toyota Corolla Cross. When it first hit the market, many people assumed it was simply an SUV variant of the Corolla, given its shared “Corolla” badging. This is not the case, though. While the two share part of their name, they differ drastically in body style, off-road capability and interior space layout, making them two entirely distinct vehicles.
