| Abstract: | Pizazz. Glitter. Repeated blasts of the rock song Joy to the World. Was Bangkok's Queen Sirikit Center the venue of yet another swank fashion collection? Wrong. The star of the show: the Soluna, a 1.5-liter four-door "Asian Car" unveiled last week by Toyota Motor, Japan's largest - and the world's No.3 - automaker. At $12,700, the most basic Soluna model is the cheapest medium-size Toyota sedan you can buy in Asia. And it is proudly made in Thailand. It is a Toyota car through and through. |
