Toyota Crown Platinum Hybrid Max - Night Review

[@android-ud2nf]

It’s honestly a great looking car in person. Draws attention to

[@naveenthemachine]

Draws attention to the ugly car 😂?

[@hctim96]

I think you are the only one who does "Night reviews" of autos....Bravo!!

[@matthewchau2481]

nah, CarConfections and PrimeAutomotive does night reviews. Just Kirk does it more regularly, which is appreciated

[@beeslandscaping]

The max is the way to go so much power nobody talks about it

[@unkemptharold9264]

Faster than any ES and maybe more reliable, but you need to look after turbo

[@angelo747]

Nighttime reviews are something we never knew we wanted until you. Thank you!

[@niteshadepromises]

Please do night review of Crown Signia

[@righteousone1]

This color should've been made available on the Camry.

[@jceess]

and Nori Green pearl

[@righteousone1]

@@jceess Agree, much better than ocean gem.

[@jceess]

@@righteousone1 I mean, I actually really like ocean gem too. But more colors is always good!

[@notsodelusional]

Great work, Kirk. Interested in NVH comparison vs. limited trim and also the signia. Ty!

[@s0ulsify]

I believe the SUV craze severely impacted the design philosophy of the Crown. It’s okay overall, but I prefer the outgoing Avalon’s design more.

[@ytj22]

Elderly people with a bit of money impacted the design philosophy of this Crown. Less effort for ingress/egress, hence the ride height.

[@unkemptharold9264]

@@ytj22 Right, my grandpa with leg issues prefers to be picked up with my crown, he really likes it

[@djplonghead5403]

The actual crown sedan is beautiful.

[@rightlanehog3151]

Kirk, Is it really fair to show the genuine Japanese Crown sedan in the same video? 🤔😉🤣 This Crown Platinum sedan may be surprisingly fast but I will take it slow and steady with the Signia any day. 🤩

[@ToyotaChrisWI]

Crown Signia has vertical adjustable headlights due to having 2,700 lbs. max towing capability.

[@rightlanehog3151]

Thanks, that's very illuminating.

[@ytj22]

​@@rightlanehog3151 I see what you did there, nice.

[@djplonghead5403]

Recently saw a heavy metal at night. Super cool looking and sounds like a spaceship.

[@phil9410]

I don’t care anything about 0-60. Comfort is what I like.

[@jeffreyerickson6766]

20 degrees today in Minn. Glad youre in Naples Kirk.

[@mariocurbelo5822]

Sadly no amber rear turning lights

[@robsnow2099]

I wonder how much the IS will take from this in the redesign if any.

[@unkemptharold9264]

That would be much better IS

[@djplonghead5403]

IIHS rates the multi beam headlights as almost enough low beam on straightaways (almost perfect on curves) and perfect high beams.

[@DaylightDrift]

Kirk, you okay? You sound a tiny bit burnt out, none of us want you to get burnt. Make sure you take time to spend with your family ❤

[@stephenwierzbicki4463]

Kirk, Can You Buy 17's or 18's for this vehicle 🤔 🦃🇺🇲🇨🇦??

[@righteousone1]

Pound sand, terrorist.

[@johnnysmile01]

I would love to see the Crown here where i live but only the sedan like the Japanese model. That thing looks insane great design

[@VAIF19]

You should test the light output against a wall (at the same place and distance) so that we can compare it among vehicles

[@ToyotaChrisWI]

Eco, Norm, and Sport all offer the same performance after half throttle for safety. It only changes the performance at initial throttle application. I was also under the assumption that Toyota has standard smart stop, which means it reacts when accelerator and brake pedals are applied together due to unintended acceleration issues back in the early 2010’s. Great work and happy thanksgiving.

[@djplonghead5403]

The drive modes do matter with the platinum because of adaptive suspension and shifting patterns.

[@wisamputrus6196]

Very nice car and looks better in person😊

[@tc3065]

Hi Kirk, do you know how this car drives compare to the GS450h? The power seems to be the same on paper. This or the Crown Signia could be a replacement for the GS since they dont make them anymore?

[@pinkipipe]

Such a pleasure to drive this car .

[@supersteve1585]

If i ever by the Max version, i would fix the 2 tone paint to be better, mostly that rear

[@rakhsiprayogo82]

Compared with BMW 8 Series Gran Coupe, Audi RS7, Mercedes AMG GT 4 Door & Porsche Panamera

[@gazzyT644]

Love these night time reviews. I work a graveyard shift and drive at night a lot. Having great headlights is a must for me.

[@c7406-q8c]

Japan made new cars not enough parts available in US and especially this nightshade will be stealth, hard to see at night so after accident, this will provide parts to others.

[@JDMSwervo2001]

I’ve seen one crown on the road and that was around this time last year and I’m in Chicago

[@faheemabbas3965]

I’ve seen a few in the Chicagoland area.

[@nissanhonda25]

More technology and luxury than any acura

[@naveenthemachine]

Wrong. Acura has a better suspension better audio and massaging seats

[@nissanhonda25]

@ MORE TECHNOLOGY AND LUXURY THAN ANY MADE IN OHIO OR MEXICO ACURA

[@naveenthemachine]

@@nissanhonda25 wrong. What crown has massaging seats, or passenger memory, or more speakers, or 4 way lumbar, or rgb ambient lighting, or a double wishbone front? Oh wait I forgot the crown doesn’t have any of those

[@nissanhonda25]

@ are you dumb? It has a trick hybrid system and acura offers NONE. The interior has a full digital dash, 12.3 inch touchscreen and panamera roof no acura sedan offers. AND ITS MADE IN JAPAN NOT OHIO

[@nissanhonda25]

@@naveenthemachine acura has zero hybrids. No technology period

[@ericohm9474]

That black plastic paneling on the side door is disgusting. What were they thinking? Absolutely kills the look of the car

[@gordonnguyen7160]

Basically this way better than the Lexus man you got rear steering on a Toyota

[@LeoTheShortGuy]

Awesome

[@americandude3825]

Happy Thanksgiving my fellow toyota addicted brother.

[@ayayoutuber]

don't like the 2 red dot in front of the gauges. the eye reader is annoying. I can do without those. I think that is the deal killer for me.

[@jceess]

I despise the American car buying public for forcing us to be saddled with this ugly toad rather than the far superior sedan variant in Japan. Crossover obsession should be classified as a mental disorder. I am just 1000% SICK of it.

[@tc3065]

Have you driven the GS450h? Do you know how this drives compare to the GS? Mine is 17 years old and this seems like it could be a replacement?

[@JackSmith-qi7dr]

Too bad Toyota passed on ambient lighting but… first world problems.

[@TalismanPHX]

The proportions of this version of the Crown is all wrong. The wheels are too big and the black plastic cladding is hideous. The two tone paint makes it look worse. Toyota should have sent us the Crown Sedan instead. I like the looks of the Signia

[@unkemptharold9264]

If traditional sedan had T24A Turbo Hybrid MAX option, I would buy it then😅

[@eatmynuggiez8911]

to bad americans dont fit in a sedan since the early 2010’s. So thats why they need to drive F-150’s and oversized useless SUV’s.

[@djplonghead5403]

That is kind of the point of the vehicle lol.

[@g.r.2985]

Completely disagree, but to each their own

[@VOLVO2LUV]

hey

[@Kevin-d3z]

To expensive

[@ryuken4065]

hopefully noone buys these because of how they look so the prices would drop.

[@righteousone1]

The exterior is out of place. Toyota needs to discontinue the Crown and give us a Camry wagon instead.

[@faheemabbas3965]

Crown Signia.

[@righteousone1]

@@faheemabbas3965 Nah.

[@ztekz]

Too expensive and not as practical for the high price tag. Only good thing going for this is the hybrid power train

[@unkemptharold9264]

and faster and more fuel efficient and cheaper than 530i
