The upcoming Signia makes a lot more sense.
If I got this, I'd go with the Limited trim for the gas mileage. I also do not want low profile tires, so I'd stick with the 19-inch wheels.

Are 19" wheels the smallest you can get? That's still pretty big IMO for this type of vehicle. Wonder if 18s or even 17s would fit and could help reduce weight and increase range perhaps (not to mention be a bit more comfortable).
Wonderful video thanks for sharing 😊

Enjoyed your output this last year. Looking forward to seeing what you do in '24. In the meantime have a great Christmas.
I have the 2024 XLE, which is like the other crowns, only without the extra bells and whistles. It drives and handles excellent, and it gets 40+ MPG, it is comfortable, spacious and after learning how to use the (gadgets) is a fun car to drive.
Fresh and funny (relevant) review...as always:)! Thank you...
I’ve been waiting for this review. I kinda like the look of the 👑. So yeah as a guy with back issues I purchased a BMW 230i thinking It’s being low to the ground wouldn’t be an issue. I was wrong 😞. I panicked and stopped in at CarMax to see what they’d offer to take it off my hands. Being a 2024 with only 500 miles they said they had no info to give me a quote so they just “came up with a number”. After waiting an hour for the appraisal they had an offer. 5k more than what I paid for it! What!!!! I was like sold! Now I’m going to be very sure before I buy another car.

Going to test drive a limited today with hubby who’s 6’2 and a Honda employee. Our kids are older so the Signia is not a necessity. This year have had Jeep GC Summit 4xe wanted to love but it dangerously turned off 4 occasions while driving dealing with lemon now. Husband has accord but finds it extremely uncomfortable for his back and on bad back days impossible to drive. I can’t even get in and out with bad hip. Didn’t like the Pilot new design like a low boat. Looking forward to Crown mpg and luxury detailing for our mature family.
i want this vehicle
Love these reviews and am interested in the Signia because wagonoid hatchy suv thing.
Family time!!!!! Good morning auto world.
12:42 I like the base XEL trim Micah 😂😂😂
I want one so bad
I wonder if Toyota would consider giving it an electric platform/configuration.
13:25 I remember the Kia Stinger came out and everyone was all excited and then dealers marked them up and no one bought them and now they’re canceled lol

Cool car, need a wagon or hatch version.
Hard to find one not crash tested yet and at $15 plus per quart of oil for oil changes is high
Base cloth seats look decidedly low-rent. Would like to see a leather option on the XLE. Also, like most Toyotas, rear doors don't open up far enough.
Love the Crown…just want an option for gas and FWD with lower price…not holding my breath…a real shame!!!
What happened to the arm rest test!?

I think it looks nice from the front, but Lady Muzio is right about that clown faced rear. The inside looks pretty bland so unless the tech about its drive train is bullet proof, I see no way to justify the price. Thanks Muzios, looking forward to more!
👍👍👌👏👏🥰🥰
It seems silly to build a taller car just for a higher hip level. A little additional ground clearance would be so welcome on a dirt road in a national park occasionally or a steep driveway exit to a highly crowned road more frequently.
@springertube
6 ай бұрын
Yes, missed opportunity to do both. Doesn't have to be as much clearance as an Outback; if that's too much maybe split the difference. Re the tall roof, they're perhaps railing from criticism over many years of the awful Tacoma and not much better 4Runner driving position..... where there is lots of ground clearance but at the expense of a short roof and resulting terrible driving and passenger positions -- they put the seats (virtually) on the floor..... so the driving position is all splayed out very uncomfortable. (They apparently improved this dynamic in the new Tacomas)
@djplonghead5403

Yes. My family has both a 1992 s-10 and a 1965 impala 2 door sedan. Both of the vehicles have excellent hip levels. You just sit down and rotate yourself in. Full size sedans used to be quite high off the ground- much higher than modern ones. The s-10 is just a perfect truck for daily driving.
Parents, please give her mic it's going to be more fun!

One big negative and nobody is talking about it....here it is..Car is designed to take 5 passengers...Ok Driver check, passenger side check, rear right passenger check and left rear passenger check.....buy my oh my the middle passenger in the rear not so good at all...The seat if u can sit on it is very hard and I being 5'10" to sit in the middle I have to tilt my head in a downward position and unable to bend it more downward as my back side of the head is touching the top. So just think that ur sitting like this for a 1 hr drive in this position and pray that you don't hit a pothole. That right there lost me for this car......
Toyota Crown summarized: It's @2:28
I think that its a poor replacement for the Avalon! I bought a 2022 Avalon Limited with every option I could find and the cost was $47K. The Crown top of the line is almost $55K. Isn't that time to go to Lexus? I have driven the Crown twice: nice ride but sort of lacks the luxury the Avalon has, I think. Also, I really like a heads-up display and it's not even available, among other things. All in all, I think that its a disappointment. OH, and I do not like the design!
This car is terribly overpriced
USA: We would like the Crown Sport Japan: We’ll send you all the other ones but the Sport
It looks similar to Citroen C5x
If I wasn't looking hard at it, I would think its a smaller version of a Dodge Charger
As someone who got a chance to experience the previous generation Crown overseas, this new one is feels off. The interior definitely isn't premium or luxurious as the previous, and the powertrain isn't as smooth. The styling is also worse, especially the rear. I guess Toyota had to dumb it down or something for the North American market. Kind of a shame.
Too pricey!!

This isn’t a review - it’s an unctuous advertisement. Also, there’s no such thing as a “base XEL” trim. It’s XLE.
@MicahMuzio
11 күн бұрын
You're right about the base trim. If I said XEL, then I misspoke. Also, I disagree with your assessment of our review but I do give you credit for sliding "unctuous" into the comments. It's nice to see a broad vocabulary on display.
Ridiculous that the XLE doesn't come with a heated steering wheel.... Have to spend a few thousand more to get it! (higher trim level).
Why not just get a Lexus es 350....its basically the same price and quieter to boot.

What's the point of having a car this size with no headroom in the back? What's the the point of having a lifted sedan as opposed to a SUV-?(see AMC Eagle). Perhaps that's why I hardly see any of these things on the road after being out for a full model year.

It needs some sort of deck lid spoiler. The back is too round.
It looks nice and I enjoy these uplifted sedans, but it doesn’t feel all that premium. The lower trim engine is noisy and the hybrid is so touchy. Just a bit overpriced and it’s missing the Crown emblem.

This won't be back for another generation in America
Yes. Crown is old people's car in Japan 😂
Large sedan with no rear headroom? That's not good Toyota. Those of us over six feet do sit in the rear sometimes. Btw I think XLE not XEL.
Not for anyone even slightly above average height. Feels very confining for such a beast.
I like it. But definitely not enough to buy one.
Crown sport is better 😊😊
Toyota in Japan: Builds nice compact cars for the Japanese market Toyota in America: Small cars don't sell in America, we must build them big. Crown entered the chat. Talk about a car that's BFN (big for nothing). Tell me you don't understand a market without telling me you don't understand a market.
More like a hatchback

Top of the line trim with no power trunk opener , no Power steering adjustments. Take a look at Toyota Crown RS advanced in Japan. This is junk they are selling in USA.Worst choices of colors.

There are a bunch of us out there like that... flip- flopped proportions, sometimes subtle for others to notice but comparatively short legs and long torso versus the average or norm for our overall (whatever) height. I am long-torso'd as well, at 6 - 0 but there are many people taller than I that don't have the head clearance issues, because they're either more "normally" proportioned (medium-medium), or the other way around, long legs, short torso. Lots of basketball players like that, that don't look all that tall through the window with no head clearance issues, but their seat is way back for the legs and arms.

I’ve never seen such stupidity in the comment section be this consistent over the years. If you really hate Toyota vehicles, then don’t bother watching the videos nor bother commenting. And you comment the second you watch the video, at least that’s what you usually do, and then say stuff that not even the reviewers agree with you about. Get a life dude. A world exists without commenting on Toyota videos. No one cares about your opinions, proven over time, and none of us want your validation nor do we care how you see Toyota/Lexus.
