If you want a unique 130 MARK X that’s different from everyone else’s, go to ALESS in Aichi Prefecture!

From the MARK II to the MARK X. At the time, many people were surprised by the bold model change, including the name of the car. From a mid-size sedan to a luxury sports sedan. Looking back, it seems that this major reform was a great success. In particular, it has definitely improved the image of the VIP industry. The MARK II tended to be looked down on, but after the MARK X, that trend disappeared, and it was recognized as an unquestioned member of the VIP sedan class, and has now risen to become a central figure.

130MARK X (premium, first series)

The first-generation 120 MARK X was sold from 2004 to 2009. The second-generation 130 MARK X, the star of this article, took over from there. It was sold from October 19, 2009 to January 24, 2020. During this time, it underwent two minor model changes in August 2012 and November 2016, and was sold for a very long time for a Toyota model, for about 11 years.

The keyword for the 130 MARK X, as set out by TOYOTA, is glam tech. Glam refers to a generous surface quality that expresses a dynamic visual appeal. Tech refers to a hard surface quality that expresses a sense of modernity and precision. The aim was to create a dynamic and stylish form through the contrast between these two qualities.

The concept put forward by TOYOTA is a little difficult to understand because of the unfamiliar words used, but the four main pillars that are essential to understanding the appeal of the 130 MARK X are as follows.

1. The elegant, flowing side silhouette, with the lower part of the front and rear pillars widened to create a sense of unity with the underbody.

2. The low center of gravity style with a height of 1435mm and a width and tread that have been expanded by 20mm.

3. The exterior features headlamps with a three-row emphasis, while the interior emphasizes a sporty feel with a cylindrical-shaped meter and boot-style shift lever.

4. The 54:46 front-rear weight balance that makes the most of the FR features achieves a stable ride.

When the 130 MARK X was first released, there were three main grades: the Premium, the Sports and the Standard. The key point is that each of these grades has its own distinct character, giving you a wider range of options to choose from. The vehicle we will introduce later is the top-of-the-range Premium model. The chrome molding on the side steps is a sign of the Premium grade.

I want a unique 130 MARK X that’s different from everyone else’s. If you’re thinking something like that, we recommend this car, which is sold at ALESS Aichi.

Compared to the standard 130 MARK X we introduced earlier, this is a sporty car with plenty of power. The aero parts are from ROZEL, which are very popular in the sedan industry, and the front features three huge openings and a sharp lip. This takes the characteristics of the 130 MARK X, a luxury sports sedan, to the next level.

The rear also boasts a sporty feel that is in a different league from the standard model. The diffuser in the center and the ducts added in various places give it a menacing look that you won’t forget after seeing it just once.

130 MARK X, early model. Premium, top-of-the-line grade. The lights have been upgraded to the latest model. On top of that, aero parts and wheels that look far better than the genuine parts have been installed. It is not easy to find a 130 MARK X that has been finished to this level.
