2023 Toyota Crown Announced
Toyota has announced the 2023 Crown, this is Toyota's fiercely styled replacement for the Avalon. The Crown will offer two powertrains, both hybrids delivering massive fuel efficiency. The Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 system also features a generous roster of active safety and driver assistance features. The Crown is the perfect fit for those drivers who prefer the raised ride height and easier cabin access of an SUV but seek a less utilitarian-looking vehicle. Built on a newly developed chassis based on Toyota's GA-K platform, the Crown offers a raised overall height nearly four inches higher than Camry. Its flowing silhouette and sculpted body lines create a fresh, unique look for its class.
Is the Toyota Crown a Hybrid?
Two powertrains are available on the 2023 Toyota Crown. The standard powertrain pairs a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine with two electric motors, an electronically controlled continuously variable transmission, and a newly developed nickel-metal hydride battery. Drivers can opt for the E-Four AWD, which sends 100% of the available power to the front wheels in everyday driving situations, and when needed, it will split power between the front and rear wheels for better traction. For those drivers looking for more power, there is the Hybrid Max powertrain, which produces 340 horsepower from a 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine and an electric drive.
What kind of technology is in the Toyota Crown?
The most remarkable feature is the seemingly one-piece screen that stretches nearly two-thirds the width of the Crown's dashboard. Every Crown model has a 12.3-inch panel in front of the driver that displays the digital instruments. This panel joins the standard 12.3-inch touch screen that sits high on the dash. You have multiple displays to choose from, including one showing the hybrid system's charge status and whether you are using the gas engine or the battery. Wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are standard, as well as dual Bluetooth phone connectivity, allowing you to accept calls on two different devices or use a mapping app on one phone and play music from another. In the front console, you will find the standard wireless charging pad, plus there are USB-A and 12-volt ports in the cubby beneath the center armrest, along with two USB-C ports on the passenger side and two additional USB-C ports for rear passengers.
What systems are offered on Toyota's Safety Sense 3.0 system
The Crown will be one of Toyota's first vehicles to get the new Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 system. This standard system includes forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian/cyclist/motorcycle detection, adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, lane keeping assistance, lane centering assistance, and automatic high beams. Plus, the Crown offers additional standard safety features that aren't part of the Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 system, like blind spot warning, rear cross-traffic warning, and a rear seat reminder.
