This New Crown Just Beat Out All Other Toyotas In This Way

[@ebykay]

I own a Crown Limited, and its exceptional ride quality constantly has me seeking reasons to hit the road. It's incredibly smooth and quiet, making every journey a pleasure.

[@matw1x]

The Crown looks mediocre online but when you see it in person, that 50K pricetag all of a sudden makes sense. It's got more presence than the Lexus LS which is almost double the price of the Crown.

[@LaowaiDaveJCP]

hybrid? no way

[@hariranormal5584]

I saw one going. My eyes were casual, so when I saw it I was like "DARN, that looks so out of the ordinary, is it one of those new modern Chinese cars?! looks nice" then looked at the back to find the crown badge. It really does look different. Not a bland Camry or whatever

[@naveenthemachine]

@@hariranormal5584 even in my Camry XSE 2020 I do a head turn whenever i see another camry XSE because it just looks so good 😍

[@jonathanbryant9855]

Most of the electric car goodness with none of the electric car drawbacks. 40mpg. What's not to like?

[@naveenthemachine]

@@jonathanbryant9855 it looks ugly, it’s cramped, and it’s very slow. And 40mpg may sound good but a rav4 hybrid gets the same mpg and it has a lot more cargo space and more ground clearance. A Camry hybrid has the same ground as a crown a bit more space yet it gets 52mpg

Just got a 2024 Crown Platinum Hybrid Max and I love it!

[@lindachlanda7198]

Just bought a Crown Limited and love its design and luxurious interior. I test drove the Lexus ES 350 and it doesn’t compare to the ride and feel of the Crown. This review was outstanding.

[@ShiftingLanes]

Thanks for sharing!

[@frankni7624]

Went to Toyota dealer for Camry XLE Hybrid for my daughter, the salesperson asked me to test drive a 2024 Crown Limited. I immediately signed the contract without delay. Just a fantastic car. My daughter is so happy.

[@Connie-qn4oq]

I was in the market for a 2021 or 2022 Lexus RX350 (due to the V6 engine) when my husband pointed out a vehicle on the roadway which was the Toyota Crown. I like sitting up high and was not in the least interested in a sedan. We ended up going to a Toyota dealership and test driving the Crown. We both fell in love. We’re now purchasing the Toyota Crown Limited. Serendipity. This was a great video and I enjoyed the comments here as well from other Crown owners.

[@55stevieray]

Great detailed review. I have had my Limited since Sept 2023 and I love the ride and library quit cabin. It has plenty of power, and I have the macadamia interior, which gives it a very airy feel compared to a dark interior. I really like the outside styling.

[@DavidSmith-ve5kj]

I just bought the Crown Limited for my wife coming out of a Corolla. We both love it so much and can’t wait for the 950 mile road trips to the grandkids.

[@July.4.1776]

We love our Crown Limited. Excellent MPG 43.7, AWD for the slippery winter months, nicely optioned. My wife wanted a sedan with the quiet ride and a trunk. The fit and finish along with the proven power train were the top selling point I am 6 foot Toyota got the ride height on the money for ingress / egress.

[@JWFas]

Out of curiosity, what mix of city/hwy is your driving?

[@Mo-qb5fb]

the car is not worth the price. at the end of the day its a totoya. The camry hybrid is a way better car and priced better than this car with 20 horsepower difference not even worth it. 226 hp in this car is not going to push any harder than a camry

[@July.4.1776]

@@JWFas Driving is some small village, freeway and mostly rural not much city driving. It is easy to hyper mile in the country with no one behind you when slowing for stop signs.

[@July.4.1776]

@@Mo-qb5fb To each their own we liked the ingress and egress height better. I never liked having to step down into a vehicle. The all wheel drive is a game changer in the snowy and slippery roads. Nothing a matter with the Camry it is just personal preference. We chose the Crown you may like the Camry better everyone has their preference. That is the beauty of different makes and models everyone gets a choice.

[@gleanerman2195]

@@July.4.1776 I love my '23 Maxima except no lane assist, WTF Nissan, but this crown as me thinking, first Toyota that I have liked.

[@rationalmoderate]

Excellent review. My wife and I just bought a Platinum version of the Crown and everything you described is right on target with our car. I would however give high marks for the Hybrid MAX powertrain as at 340 HP it is very quick and can really pin you into your seat. Toyota claims 5.7 seconds (?) 0-60 but Car and Driver pulled 5.1 seconds 0-60 with a platinum in their testing. We are getting 31 MPG highway and 28 City which we are not complaining about. The technology package as you stated is very comprehensive and state of the art. The handling performance is excellent and being that we live in Wisconsin, the AWD during winter will be much appreciated. Thank You for your review!

[@attszhang2692]

just brought a 2024 crown limited with $8800 off. At this price point, i don't know why people buy camry xle hybird with mark up.

[@djplonghead5403]

We just checked out a dealership and it’s about $1000 off MSRP. With a trade-in we should get it down to about 30,000 which is a great price for what the car offers.

I love this car. My best vehicle, yet. It is an amazing ride and full of so many great options I am still exploring. Mine is grey and looks amazing. It stands out wherever I go as well as performing phenomenally.

[@zheniatanasova2179]

I absolutely love mine! It's the most gorgeous red color (exactly like the one in the video), sleek, sporty looking. People wave at me at traffic lights to ask me what it is. I'm absolutely proud of owning one, and after all the cars I looked at, this one is still the most beautiful in my eyes! I also love that's so rare! I've only seen 3 on the road - black, white, and mine. Mine totally steals the show, though haha It looks and feels classy, and it's definitely turning heads everywhere I go ❤️

I just got a 2024 Crown Unlimited with the bigger 21" wheels and I love this car. SWEET!!

[@citizentex5720]

This is a really nice car. I’ve driven one and I think it rides and is built to the standard of a Lexus. Looks are subjective, but it definitely looks like a Toyota to me I have to say, as an old man, that it is a major mistake to have those giant wheels on the car. It could ride so much better with smaller wheels and you wouldn’t have to worry about curbs as much, much less the cost of replacing the tires.

Great insightful review. My concern is with that big piece of black plastic at the front, with time it might look weathered and dull. I would appreciate your thoughts.

[@ShiftingLanes]

It’s glossy finish, so I doubt it. If it were matte black or textured, different story

[@oldtoughguy]

I have an XLE and on a recent road trip while on the interstate the car in front of me hit a mud flap off a semi truck and flipped it up and onto the front grill (hard hit) thought it shattered the grill- pulled over got out and looked- nothing, I couldn’t believe it, very pleased.

[@Highlander311]

Its biggest failure is that it looks like a hatchback but doesn’t actually have the utility of having a hatch. The other mistake is they slapped on a Toyota badge and they should have used a Crown badge.

[@rationalmoderate]

The trunk on the Crown is cavernous. For most owners it will be fine rather than like a Hatchback.

[@guineeeg1]

Great coverage!

[@rickrubin1291]

Really wish they'd made it a hatchback, much more usable space & it wouldn't have changed the look much.

[@Myrune1]

I'll take the 340hp, thankyouverymuch. I'll take the hit on MPG. I'm betting it won't be near as bad as they claim if you don't rip it all the time. I have a high horsepower sedan currently and I generally get 26mpg and as high as 29mpg and I think it's rated for 22. (I get as low as 15mpg if I'm having a good time driving my short distance to work.)

[@GaryHolt-t3s]

Almost bought a Crown. Wanted something different than SUV styling. Loved how it drove. But could not accept all the exterior glossy black plastic on the front grill and the "nike swoosh" on the doors. A few years of sunlight will make this car look drab as the black looses its gloss, and fades unevenly as we've all seen too often as cars age.

I was thinking about getting the new Camry, but this car is Stunning to me. I'm willing to buy a two year old Crown to get the more comfortable car than to buy a new Camry. The Price will be about the same this way.

[@richardmurray6519]

The design is just right.

[@boedilllard5952]

I was looking at the crown but $4500 just to get adequate (not great) speakers - sure it comes with crap you don't want like 21" wheels. It would be like going to 5 guys and paying $20 for fries because you have to get it with brussel sprouts, and lutkefish on your burger.

I bought a 2007 Camry Hybrid, and after driving it for acouple of months could not wait to get rid of it. The real problem was the gas and battery handoff just didn’t work. Recently we thought it was time to give Toyota another look. Traded my 2019 Lincoln Mk Z for a Limited Crown. What a difference! The Crown rides better and the power is just enough for the high way cruising and plenty of power for in town. Very happy with the car, but it will take a while tofigure out all of the idiosyncrasies. This video for example showed me how to open the trunk by touching a button.

Premium fuel is not necessary for this hybrid. Regular 87 octane is what it's tuned to run with -- and is a lot cheaper than 91 or 93 octane. I'm getting around 575 miles per tankful with an overall constant 45mpg. It doesn't get any better than that.

Nah, there's room enough in the Toyota car model world for both a sedan and a cross-wagon (my term for the new Signia). I'm a forever sedan man. Wagons and crossovers with exposed trunks are noisier than fully enclosed sedans. That's why I wouldn't even have entertained a liftback on the Crown sedan...just a different opinion. The trunk is plenty big for the Mrs and me on our road trips, and around home has plenty of room for anything I'd buy. With the rear seatbacks down, I can even fit my 27-inch bike!

[@jaws10278]

I just dont like the hatchback shape of the back window into the trunk lid. Makes it look like an Accord. Otherwise its a nice looking vehicle

[@eugeneharper5057]

I can't disagree with your opinion...Beauty is indeed in the eye of the beholder. However, the 4-inch higher seating position was a major dealmaker in the purchuse of my 2023 Crown Limited.
