So many haters in the comments! I love this thing! Yes it's expensive, but if I wasn't broke I'd be at the Toyota dealership right now buying this thing, it's amazing

[@naveenthemachine]

No you wouldn’t 😂. The crown is expensive, overpriced, ugly, and the interior is horrible for a flagship Toyota

53 decibels is as loud as a quiet conversation or a quiet refrigerator ! That blows my mind. I've never been in a car that quiet. Drew you looked really comfortable. Great review !!

[@TheGamingAudiophile]

My Audi scored a 51 decibel rating but that’s to be expected since it’s a German luxury car.

Rolls Royce scores an incredible 49! At 75 miles an hour ! 😮

Yesss... I love my car it's so sexy... turns heads everyday... I have this exact car

[@anthonyfranchino6132]

I recently purchased the bronze and black two tone Crown and it is a beautiful car with great handling. In my area these cars are selling as soon as they hit the lot and in some cases before they hit the dealership lot. We get many complements on the car and it being so new to the US market it gets a lot of attention when on the road.

[@epicipodmodz]

I work at Toyota over in Cali, here our crowns sit for months 😂

[@Tully3674]

This, the highest trim, should have power tilt/telescopic steering and a power trunk. I'm thankful there is no CVT. It's a good package reasonably priced.

[@leandrobragasp]

Exactly

[@dothedishes3427]

Reasonable...well okay then.

[@hellkitty1014]

I agree, but they also want to protect Lexus somehow. But this costs what a loaded ES350 does, so Toyota should've thrown it in.

[@jerryclubb300]

Add a more premium sound system to your list of missing features.

[@kwaseb]

No head up display 😢

[@Sabundy]

good lord....that colour is just magnificent.

[@garykupitz1414]

56k for a "premium" car with a Camry interior? Despite the apparent interior updates for 2024, the interior is still not befitting of a flagship vehicle.

[@hellkitty1014]

The price is someblwhat dear(about $15K more than a loaded Camry XSE V6) for a mainstream brand and considering that cars are a hard-sell right now, it is rather ambitious. That said, considering what Lexus is putting out right now in interiors, this seems to actually out-Lexus some Lexus vehicles(looking at you nee RX/TX). And at least they gave it the power that is requisite with the lofty price.

[@wongchai807]

😮😂 I like the interior. Its buying a lexus without the price

[@jonszabo]

I’ve been surprised at cars I thought weren’t so nice and luxurious in videos and pics ended up really impressive in person. I’m going to check a Crown out soon to find out.

[@brandonyen7837]

I’ll go with the new Camry 2025😂

[@MiroBG359]

56K because that battery/ev junk isn't cheap

[@ousi00]

I drove the base model as a rental in Japan. Definitely interesting. I drove it back-to-back with an LS500 (also a rental) and noticed that it is only slightly nosier and slightly bumpier. The tech is much more modern than the LS, and the seats on both cars are pretty comfy as well.

[@DougLeDrew]

Have a 2024 Crown ..it’s an amazing vehicle ..so comfortable on long drives..and the attention it gets from people is amazing..constantly being asked about it and getting compliments …

[@Investor_philips]

I actually like the side profile of the vehicle

[@jphourcheu]

Missing a lift back is such a big missing opportunity. I love sedans but I do love a lift back even more when cars are this long.

[@JimmyHuynhdesign]

I thought the same thing.

[@JWFas]

The Crown Signia will be the crossover version.

[@jphourcheu]

@@JWFas late reply but I love the crown “sport” proportion more. Still like hatch sport sedan but would love upgrade to crown sport from my current Camry 2019

[@tanekiagrant8479]

I love the Toyota crown

[@richardshaffer3874]

I loved the Avalon before the "designers" made it look like a laughing stock with the hyper-aggressive grilles. Same with Camry. I like the look of the upcoming 2025 Camry, however. Toned it way down. Finally.

[@KhrissyDaDon]

I’m starting to see these more and more on the road!

[@TheRange7]

Holy cow, how did I miss this one? What a stunning car. 340 HP too, man, that's sweet. Great review brothers, thanks.

[@ticolindo2010]

Wow, I love this Crown is great. Powerful and the exterior design is awesome Looks better than the Camry. Love Drew.

[@eggzsponsor207]

Toyota crown actually looks really good

[@handofkindness]

Conclusion it's a good looking smart and reliable sedan or in UK we call it a saloon car especially the crown platinum hybrid max a lot of people like it as I do very much so.

[@Pona1234]

And there it is the famous grey plastic vibe.

[@Mike-cq7vv]

I've always liked the ES 350 although I don't think Lexus is making the same quality es as they used to. When I test drove and cross shopped these two vehicles I walked away with the crown platinum and have no regrets. This is one of the most underrated cars I've seen. This is a masterpiece and too bad most people don't know about it. This is hands down the best sedan I've driven in 40 years, it has power no lag completely butter smooth adjustable ride if you want to take the corners faster. And despite what other people think about the JBL I'm an audiofile and absolutely love this stereo. And if you look at car and driver this car goes 0 to 60 and 5.1 seconds it's a half a second off from the Genesis g70 3.3T.

[@Theonestrongbusleader]

Yes of course & I'm planning on buying one.

[@TakinDrasticMeasurez]

I can’t fathom paying mid 50s for a Toyota that’s almost as much as the price of a fully loaded Lexus ES350.

[@djplonghead5403]

Fully loaded ES300h goes into the 60k range which has the same engine has the Limited trim which is 50k. You have to spend 56k in the ES to get vented seats and bigger screen that the Crown has.

[@Thebuscommunityleader]

Amazing video guys.

[@RyanDoonan]

Very nice Toyota that is one thing they do amazing with the Toyota and Lexus branding it is almost the same size as an Avalon with the trunk space

[@jonszabo]

Always a big fan of your videos guys! Of course, my favorite things for every video, your opener, “what’s going on, KZbin!“, And now I can add donuts for the center console - awesome touch. But my new favorite now is when Drew does the slam dunk and the way his legs go up in the air! Ha ha ha I love it! Great work guys!

[@CarConfections]

Thank you!

[@jmahizzle]

This is gonna be a hit with the retired demographic. Can't wait to see a bunch of these being driven slowly in the passing lanes in the near future.

[@DaniTheNachoPirate]

23:18 it's priced accordingly sure, but I'll take this over an Accord for sure.

[@hellkitty1014]

For years, I critiqued Toyota for its too cautious approach to its cars. That changed with the Camry XSE/TRD and the now departed Avalon TRD. Now we have this Crown that is completely unorthodox to what we assume about the sensible Toyota brand. Somehow, they've merged their hybridized mission with emotional excitement for its over mainstream mission. It is efficient, has decent performance, doesn't look like any other vehicle on the road right now, and practical. I do believe the price of the loaded Platinum models is maybe $5-7K too rich, considering this certainly encroaches on loaded ES350 territory and even entry E350/540i/A6 class.(and those have favorable lease rates to boot). But I applaud Toyota for trying to make the sedan-class remain relevant, while trying to wash away the "old-person" image of the Avalon.

[@Avenger24601]

The back profile of the car reminds me of the Audi A7, also a beautiful car.

[@noodlesshakira]

This will be the 2025 Lexus es 350 can’t wait 🔥

[@HenryCalderonJr]

It reminds me when Cressida was the top line and luxurious compared to the Camry. Cressida was our version of this crown that we did not have in the USA

[@burningknuckle26]

Oh yeah

[@sunrise7236]

Holy damn. It looks like you are sitting in a monstertruck . Looks really big

[@sebasr5521]

Go and price a Genesis 70 to have the same features- vented seats. I think it has less power (not sure) and a more expensive price tag. The interior may look nicer but does not feel nicer.

[@TryingToBeKind]

Nice review guys, thanks! Hated the look of this when it came out, but it’s growing on me. However…. No color but black for the interior on the Platinum, and no HUD? I could live without the HUD (although I shouldn’t have to at this price - I have one on my ‘21 46K Mazda CX-9 Signature), but will never buy another car with a boring black interior. I want something pretty, with contrast!

[@lipokyanger7685]

Ohh no no no. I love everything about the car except for that huge dashboard sticking out when the door is open. The chassis and interior design teams clearly didn't coordinate well.

[@handavidson]

Crown and camry is the same?

[@hassansuboh1891]

The back looks like they forgot to finish design and affects the side profile. The interior does not look premium at all. I feel like lot of missed opportunity with this.

[@pttthhh]

I personally don't like car interiors that "look" premium. I love this interior. It's extremely simple yet classy without being try-hard and shiny like it's supposed to be in a douchey yacht.

my Pro is about the crown is it looks very attractive it has very nice features and it works very premium on the outside my cons are it is way too expensive and the interior doesn't fuel premium at all when I'm paying 56 Grand the seats are attractive but everything else is very cheap looking if I'm spending this much money on a sedan I would rather have the Lexus which has a better interior better looking on the outside and not a lot of plastic

[@DrMike911]

I've been researching the Crown at great length, but for a car that will cost you 60k to drive off the lot with (destination charges and taxes), it really needs a HUD, a more luxury interior, power trunk and a premium sound system (the 11 speaker JBL is a HUGE let-down, sound-wise). This feels like a well-to-do AWD Camry with a higher stance and a bigger engine. You can get a loaded Ultra-Luxury Lexus ES350 for this same money. I'm very torn.
