- 2023 Toyota Crown Hybrid MAX review by The Straight Pipes. The 23 Toyota Crown Platinum is putting down 340 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque from a Hybrid 2.4L Turbo 4 Cylinder. At $59,990 CAD, would you take it over the Kia Stinger, Chrysler 300 or Dodge Charger? Maybe even a Rav 4 Prime?

Portland, JAMAICA in the Building!!!
I hate it.
Subaru and Toyota are in a turf war in Colorado.
Guess what side I’m on…
Looks like a bloated blob of sheet metal.
Bruh I’m tryna make it out the hood so on my TH-cam channel i do food reviews while I’m super high cx
This is a PLATINUM not a limited. Sorry I kept getting confused calling it both lol - Jakub
Portland, JAMAICA in the Building!!!
Silly 🙃
Thank you. Apology accepted
You guys need to get your information straight. You have over a million followers.
BRO you're name is not Jacob, it's JA-KOOB! LOL Say it right my man, be proud. You totally Americanized (yes americanized) the shit out of your name HAHAAHHA own it bro.
I work for Toyota and in some of their models that have USB or USBC plugs inside they'll leave a gap for the cords to be able to come out without pinching them. That could explain that space you all pointed out.
They can also just do a slit in the front that nobody would see. Like other manufacturers do
That's an absurd reason for such a absurd gap.
My 2018 Avalon just has a slit
My 1989 Miata closes all the way around
What's a USB?
@@TheStraightPipes could be because it’s pre-production press car. Might be different when the start rolling off the line
I ferry around older parents and for people that say lifted is useless, remember that for mobility impaired people raising up the seat a bit higher than a standard sedan can make all the difference in ingress/egress comfort and loading/unloading the trunk. Simultaneously, it reduces anxiety about small road debris, curb height when front parking, or steep inclines off the street where you are less likely to scrape.
also for tall people because in my 2008 crown I have to sometimes touch the ground for support and get my legs in first its a hassle
I've had multiple back surgeries and like Sedans because SUV's are a bit too high, but my sedan is tough getting in and out of too. The second I saw this car I wanted it. This car could really improve my life and it doesn't look like an old school Volvo.
I'm short and I need the lifted height
Lifted for old people are actually useful. Its easy ingress and egress especially for those that drive CUVs, the seat height is usually just right at the hip slightly lower.
Yeah, ok……
30MPG highway, 350 HP, fun on a twisty road, comfortable and unique styling. All this plus Toyota 's dealer network and reliability. Checks a lot of boxes. Well done Toyota.
I'm not old, but I'd totally consider one of these if I still had a long commute. Seems like a very good couch on wheels.
As an über driver, this thing is perfect for me to be honest. I get a bunch of old people who wouldn't be able to get up in a rav4 comfortably.
Get the prius prime for ubering, can save so much on gas.
@@kevinfernandez9999New Prius is not good at all for old or mobility impaired people entry/exit.
I find this pretty interesting as a 37 yo avalon owner. I really like that this has AWD which is the main thing i wish my avalon hybrid had as its such a heavy car.
The reason it was more fun with traction control on is because The Crown has a system called active cornering assist, which uses the stability control system to mitigate understeer.
why i can't see review about toyota crown sport, sedan and estate 2022 in TH-cam than this car??
All modern Toyotas have vehicle-dynamics integrated management, which can predict a skid (either understeer or oversteer) and correct before it happens.
Well, that’s no fun, some of us like oversteer.
I always thought it kinda hilarious the old-person-preferred Avalon was too low to get in and out of easily or have a decent vantage point in traffic. This makes huge sense and looks surprisingly good.
I own an Avalon. They arent too low to get out of and have massive visibility
Bt is smaller than a Avalon
@@luthersullivan5141 I said vantage point, not visibility. They sit very low compared to a lot of modern traffic, which tends to be crossovers, etc. And low vehicles are inherently more difficult for many people to get in and out of. I'm glad the car works for you. I had considered one a few years ago for the smooth V6 and overall quality, but felt the low seating position counterproductive in a car meant for comfort and ease of use.
@@desertmodern7638 it has full auto adjusted seats including height unless you are a midget i just dont see what you are talking about.
@@desertmodern7638 I don't find that to be the case. I don't know. Getting into high ones and out of them isn't ideal either.
I am so excited to watch this review! this channel is a real car show ! the film style, editing, the hosts. very nice.
It’s so odd looking and will be stupidly practical and reliable. I want 😂
Not as practical as a Venza or any other SUV with a hatch.
Me too!
@@quixomega for whatever reason I absolutely despise the Venza but think this is the cars meow. Tastes are odd like that.
That cut from the intro to the driving shot was sweet
I don’t mind this car. I like the looks. I’d probably go with a solid colour over the two tone. And the performance is great. This car isn’t trying to be “Nice” for anybody. It’s not trying to be like another car, the hybrid option is great, good job Toyota. Not everyone cares about all the tech people complain about. (360 camera)
I drove a 1978 Toyota Crown in Trinidad in 2019, inline 2.8L 6cylinder had a champagne cooler and a glass rack in the back, the car drove like a dream!
Crown in Japan are the absolutely the pinnacle of old people car, exactly like you guys pick up on
🙏
15:45 the slammed stance does look pretty good to be honest
Wow. I remember this car from way back in the 1980s. my dad owned 2 of them, a 1980 and a 1984 . and they were really amazing and luxurious back then. they were like the top Toyota car before Lexus came out. Awesome cars back then.
Honestly looks pretty nice, definitely for someone wanting something with room and practicality without joining the SUV bandwagon. I’m sure the aftermarket support will be there for these.
It’s smaller inside than a Camry and Avalon
why i can't see review about toyota crown sport, sedan and estate 2022 in TH-cam than this car??
@@lancruiser300grsport5Aren't they Japan only? That's probably why.
They "they must be listening to us" joke whenever the car passes the visor test never gets old
I hope I can buy the sun visor and fit it on my prius seamlessly 🤞
Imagine the bronze one with like 16s or 17 inch gold bbs rs and like off road-ish tyres that would be sick!
Or you could do the opposite and just slam it
Would be nice if they allow to set it to do 3 bongs when it goes over a certain speed, would be sweet for downhill off road/gravel road racing heh heh
this is such a trash car lol even the prius is a joke
It’s jdm of course
Crown Dakar
“This is the Toyota crown, it competes with the Subaru Legacy from 2006 with the factory lift kit and the AMC Eagle”
So happy you like it! We are listening 😉🫣
Wont lie the older gen crowns looked luxurious my dad owns an 06 and it still looks amazing
Really missed the 06 generation, the newer generations just doesn't have that same executive/high class look to it anymore. Not enough to differentiate this from competitors
The Lexus GS 350 is essentially the previous generation Crowns with different styling. I have a 2013 GS 350 AWD with the 3.5L V6 306 hp. LOVE my car.
@@CarShopping101 and I have a modellista GRS184 Toyota Crown Athlete, what a car it is.
@@johnliu6855 just a few more years until we can import them
@@elsapomasguapo can't wait till the day to import my own... My late grandpa used to own a 2007 Crown Royal Saloon fully loaded. I rode in it for most of my childhood until I left the country... My dream was to drive my grandparents around in that car but my Grandpa passed away and the car was totaled by another relative not so long after his death... I'm hoping one day I get to import one over to Canada so I can drive my family here in that car as a way to fulfil that childhood dream...
Its sad that you guys never got to experience the crown until now. It and the Toyota Mark X are some of the most iconic vehicles overall in countries like Jamaica. Good luxury, good power, perfect Value.
The avalon replaced the cressida, which is basically a cresta/mark ii. The older crowns and mark x’s look great too
The Lexus GS 350 is essentially the Crown with different styling so yes we did kind of get it
eh, the GS and Crown is the same car with exactly the same platform and wheelbase. I had both, S200 2.5 V6 Crown and S190 GS350, exactly the same handling except the Crown feels a lot more boat-like slow having the smaller V6.
@@CarShopping101 oh okay gotcha, didn't think they used the same platform in the lexus tbh
why i can't see review about toyota crown sport, sedan and estate 2022 in TH-cam than this car??
I applaud toyota for making this! I just want a sporty version
Can't say enough good things about Tuxmat. Have them in my Rav4, In fact they replaced the drivers side due to a rubber piece that came off free of charge. Amazing full protection mats.
The crown 👑 is the talk of the town let me subscribe to this channel these guys reviews are really good thanks for sharing I appreciate the effort y’all put into this video 👍
A hybrid Toyota Crosstour! I wish Honda made it with SHawd.. Very underrated vehicle.
Honda, super unreliable
I had to stop the video and just stare at the Bronze/Black color combo, dayam that's sharp!
I had no intention of even considering an Audi back in '18, but your glowing review of the S5 ragtop ended in a test ride and a purchase, thank you! Now, at 63 and 6'5", you guys tempt me with this, it has everything I'd like to have now (getting harder to crawl into the Audi these days). I'll let you guys know if you ended up costing me more money. ;)
What did you end up getting?
It's this or the new Crown Signia for me.
@@berniemadoff7837 Still with the Audi; it'll be a few more years yet.
Finally! Been waiting for this review
Brilliant. You need decent ground clearance around town- potholes, making it up driveways, big puddles, snow, etc. I think it’s genius.
Finally… an old people car I would be proud to own (I’m 46). Can’t wait for you both to review the new Prius! I’d like to find out if it’s a car that is sporty, good looking and economical.
YOURE NOT OLD
tuxmats are amazing! definitely worth getting those, i absolutely LOVE mine
This is pretty baller! Good power, gas mileage, AWD, tech, and ground clearance!
And more power than a Golf R lol, i want it :(
I will buy two, to have one for the backup plan, if first one is will broken after 99 years. Beautiful exterior design. Great review!
Didn’t expect the front grill in your thumbnail to be real! 😂
I love how the energy went up immediately as you went through cliche corner immediately lol
Current 2019 VW Arteon owner here, age 51, I would definitely consider one of these for the combination of space and AWD for our Northern NY winters. Very cool they didn't go with a CVT, but no lift back is a missed opportunity.
eCVT in the base version. Only the HybridMAX powertrain has a standard automatic. You're absolutely correct regarding the liftback, although I think some of the Crown versions in other markets get them.
A black one, tinted, lowered, debadged would look pretty sharp!
Ugly
I bet nobody would know what it was
slammed on plastic fenders ... good in concept horrible in execution.
see slammed audi allroads for refrence.
Black Cars are Basic:
Deep Dark Purple
Deep Navy Blue
Side view of rear quarter is similar to Citroen CX5. Wish it was a hatch. Front layout is clean. Overall it’s very nice.
Perfect for aging hipsters.
That embossed TURBO on the engine cover is retro awesomeness.
I love watching ur guys videos happy thanksgiving to you both from felts mills NY
I actually really like that it's a lifted Sedan type thing, giving me MAD AMC Eagle (The original crossover) vibes~!
LOVING THIS CHANNEL 👏👏👏.... HAVE A BEAUTIFUL DAY EVERYONE ✌️
Jarmel!
Thanks Guys love the videos great work
Thanks, guys, for the great video! I do like that car too, and I am not a senior yet! Lol!😉👍
Polestar 2 did the lifted sedan thing first and they've made over 100k of them so far, but nobody ever mentions it in their reviews of the Crown.
honda crosstour
They ruined the crown luxury design in my opinion 😢
Yes
It's so ugly 😭
I do agree
Imagine high level executives riding on the back of this car rofl, failed toyota
Yep
The looks on this are simply breathtaking...
So aside from beeping at you, what else happens if you're not looking straight ahead?
Please review the regular hybrid drivetrain! I want to hear how much sound comes into the cabin. That version should be like a luxury Prius.
I think this is the only car in the country right now
@@TheStraightPipes Yeah I mean eventually, not like this second lol. I'm just more curious about that drivetrain than the 6-speed.
The funny thing is that it would instantly look multiple times better if it were lowered the exact amount that they raised it.
the bronze one looks pretty slick.
Instead of beeping to say keep your eyes on the road, I want a Japanese (language) voice dub aggressively telling me to keep my eyes on the road. I'd buy that upgrade!
I literally opened the TH-cam app to look at reviews of this car and this video was my first suggestion. The algorithm knows lol
That front end lifts so much when you punch it lol I think they should of thrown in the legendary 2JZ under the hood and make it a real Crown.
Yesssss
Pretty neat! it's not quite drifty enough to take it over the stinger for me though. Plus, twin turbo is hard to beat. But obviously I'm not the target demo lol. If I have to get a boring daily though.. it's in the running
Literally nobody asked or cares
9:57 I am beyond disappointed that they did not include Teammate on the Crown. It literally has the Teammate steering wheel from the Mirai and the LS500H, but they excluded it for no reason. I would have bought it in a heartbeat, but I'd rather pick up a 2021 or 2022 G80 with HDA II and basically sleep at the wheel because of how good the lane centering is and how long you're able to go with your hands off the hwheel
My grandpa bought it because his 2020 Tacoma was too difficult to get into with his mobility issues, but he lives in the mountains of Pennsylvania so he needed a car that’s capable of handling deep snow in his rural area. It is absolutely amazing
Makes sense
It looks weird BUT i'd have this over any SUVs any time of the day cause you can always just slam the suspension if you want to stance it out
Who tf wants to slam a hybrid vehicle like this 😂
@@alsw1632 With the way everyone is focusing on ev’s this might be the future lol. He’s thinking two steps ahead.
@@alsw1632 dude there are entire clubs slamming CRZ and Priuses out there and I'm pretty sure someone out there have slammed hybrid Camrys and Avalons in the States. What's stopping people from doing the Crown? The old one is ridiculously popular with tuners in Japan as well
I really like this Honda Crosstour from Toyota 😉
I’m 46 and have a Fusion hybrid. It’s so low and I’m so old that I can’t get in and out of it easily. I saw a Charger AWD that had a lift kit and A/T truck tires on it, it was the COOLEST thing!
Get a crostrek
the stance reminds me of the AMC Eagle 4WD.
I also like this.
I really like the crown, but they could have done better. They could of at least made a hatchback like some other rivals, and the older one was so luxurious. Not sure what happened there.
Anyways... Happy Thanksgiving Yuri and Jakob!!
First time I've ever thought about buying a Toyota - nice looking ride!
With all these crossovers and SUVs, I think we are entering an era that is worse than the malaise era.
Good job Toyota!! Great review guys🎉
I have ADHD and sometimes i get distracted from from the road. This thing is amazing
Be cool if this powertrain came in the upcoming Prius which looks awesome.
Would be cool if it comes in the up coming Camry
I love the quirkiness of this car but WHY didn't they make it a hatch?!?!
I know it's a weird question, but will it make a good family car? I was thinking of getting used RX (don't like new 2023), Highlander, or this. Don't really need 3 rows, but want more space than Rav4 or NX. This looks pretty Lexus -like (almost) and I love sedans.
Would’ve been nice if Toyota used an extended wheelbase Murai platform with this powertrain for the Crown. IMO, more fitting of the name.
Wait till the Jamaicans see what the crown now is you should try out the older models there good too😍
We're going back to the old designs. A sedan with actual ground clearance? Nice.
That was a sweet transition at the beginning
Subaru and Volvo: Jesus, anyone who encouraged us to waste money on launching crossover-sedans should be cursed for ages
Toyota in 2022: Hold my beer lmao
Seriously, AMC or Eagle or whatever had 4wd lifted cars in the 80s and they were hideous.
Quite a nice design👌 Wondering if that was the 8 speed that the Yaris GR is getting soon?
No
Thanks for this video..good job. I’m a musician & a good stereo is important to me. How is the audio in this car..good or bad? Can it compare to the Mark Levinson in a Lexus es300h? Trying to decide between those two cars.
The looks remind me of the 5th gen Celica, which is good. One of these with the proportions and liftback of the Celica would be great.
I think they nailed the design. I love it ❤
It’s basically an Avalon. If this car was an Atkinson Cycle bullet proof 3.0L inline six hybrid and was rear wheel drive with an electric motor in the front and got 40MPG all day I’d call it a Crown.
facts
Can you turn off the the beeping etc for the attention monitoring ?
I’m not bingo age yet (30s but tall) and this looks great to get into and out of in tight parking spaces. I’m driving what is likely to be my last low-slung sedan and this is on my shortlist as a replacement!
How’s the posture? I’m looking for a CUV seating posture because my thighs have no support on long drives in sedans.
This redesign of the crown looks revolutionary. Especially with the two-tone accents on the car's middle section from the front all the way to the back. It has lost some of it's luxurious features from the past, but I still love it compared to the crowns from the late 2010s which were basically downgraded versions of the Lexus LS.
That lift though, feels weird but at the same time very practical when going through speed bumps and off-road terrains on the get go.
I'm starting to think Toyota is just throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks.
Does the 4 cylinder turbo Hybrid require regular fuel or premium fuel?
I Love the older design language used for Crown 👑
Will miss it always 😑❤️
I wish we got the other versions of the crown
So, this car competes with the Stinger, 300, and Charger...all three of which will be discontinued? Good job Toyota, you can dominate a segment that no one wants.
The only segment it’s gonna dominate is the same segment the Avalon was in before it was discontinued: it’s a car designed mostly for old people so that’s who it’s gonna sell to.
Love it, definitely going to be saving my pennies for one!
I legit want a TRD version of this like, now
Lowered an inch or more, painted trim panels, +100hp, plug-in with 50mi EV range
As a gen z, this car is incredibly appealing to me. The design is original yet sophisticated, the two-tone paint is amazing and refreshing. As i totally hate SUV's and their poor driving characteristics, but don't like to be beaten up on these broken Quebec roads, this would be the answer for me. The daily factor of this beast is through the roof.
what a strange design for Toyota to build as an upscale vehicle. It's reminds me of the Honda Crosstour, ugly, awkward, disjointed, confusing... It's especially ironic since Toyota finally got the Prius right with the 2023 design.
Naw it’s a whole new style of car. I think it’ll do well
I thought Crosstour as soon as I saw it too. Your assessment of the looks is spot on.
@Paul the tires aren’t very wide 😂. It only has 225 width tires. How can that be? My Camry has 235 tires stock from the factory 😂
Great job! Will this be assembled in Japan or North America?
I love how it looks
That paint job is a crime.
This is just an odd vehicle. I do like unique things, but this is just strange 😲
Fastback SUVs are generally strange, especially the new Crown which has a separate trunk, compared to other fastback SUVs.
This is the kind of format that’s gonna bridge sedans and sportbacks
That’s really really pretty!!! It’s so sporty looking!!
That's pretty ugly to be honest
