Overview

The Toyota Crown bridges the gap between traditional sedan and crossover, offering standard AWD, an elevated driving position, and premium materials.

Driving Experience

The 340-hp HYBRID MAX setup provides strong off-the-line acceleration and smooth high-speed passing power while retaining a quiet, supple ride.

Fuel Economy & Efficiency

Base 2.5L hybrid trims achieve up to 41 MPG combined, while the performance Platinum trim returns an impressive 30 MPG combined.

Pros

  • Standard Electronic All-Wheel Drive across all trims
  • Exceptionally quiet and plush cabin ride quality
  • Elevated ride height makes entry and exit effortless

Cons

  • Distinctive crossover-sedan styling may not appeal to traditionalists

Verdict

A uniquely styled, comfortable, and fast full-size sedan that combines Lexus-level cabin refinement with efficient hybrid power and standard AWD.
