    We are sorry if the title gave you a rude shock. So, let us assure you that the Toyota Crown will also be made in sedan form as we know and love.

    Before we go into the details of the newly premiered 2023 Toyota Crown, let us first count our blessings: Toyota has not done a full Mitsubishi by placing a legendary model name onto something that is totally unlike the model we knew before.

    Instead, Toyota has trod down the wiser path. Its development team closely examined what made a 'Crown', a 'Crown'.

    New Crown to be released first as Crossover 
    Despite now putting the Crown name on four different variants of cars, they have distilled the essence of Crown into each of them while ensuring they remain relevant in the new era.

    In addition to the 'Crossover' body, a new style that combines a sedan and an SUV, the 'Sport' offers a sporty driving experience with an enticing atmosphere and an easy to drive demeanour.

    The 'Sedan', meanwhileis a new formal design that meets the needs of chauffeurs, and the 'Estate' is a functional SUV with a mature atmosphere and ample driving space.

    Coupe proportions and elevated ride height gives Crown Crossover unique appearance
    Since the Crossover variant of the Crown is the first to have its details released, let's now delve deeper into it.

    Starting from the exterior, the Crown Crossover has a coupe-esque silhouette combined with an elevated ride height.

    The head lights and taillights are connected from left to right in a single straight line.

    Coming into the interior, we can observe that the interior is significantly different from the previous generation Crown.

    The infotainment system and operating controls have all been horizontally integrated, creating a functional layout that can be operated intuitively and conveniently from either front seat.

    Spacious interior, as befitting of Toyota's flagship
    Attention has also been paid to every interior component, including the inclusion of an ergonomically shaped shift knob, well finished and plush seats, as well as other features, all designed to create a sense of quality and richness.

    A total of 12 body colours and four interior colours will be made available.

    The Crown Crossover will be made available with a 2.4-litre hybrid. This combines a four-cylinder engine that produces powerful torque from low rpms with a newly developed bipolar nickel hydrogen battery this is utilised for the first time.

    Use of the Toyota New Global Architecture (TNGA) platform will provide a lightweight and well balanced body with high rigidity. MacPherson struts in the front and a multi-link suspension for the rear will also allow for higher straight line stability.

    TNGA platform to help reduce weight along with better balance and higher rigidity
    Toyota also boasts the inclusion of two of the most advanced suties of safety and driving support systems in this new Crown.

    The firm's safety sense suite of safety systems here has been updated with improved functions and will be standard across all Crown grades. The range of accidents it can respond to has also been expanded.

    The second Toyota Teammate suite of driver assistance technologies meanwhile, will come with Advanced Drive, which supports safe driving in congested traffic. Advanced Park, on the other hand, will allow automatic parking with an included remote function.
