In this review, we explore the 2024 Toyota Crown, a stylish and high-riding sedan poised above the Camry in Toyota's lineup, starting at just over $41,000. As the successor to the discontinued Avalon, the Crown offers standard all-wheel drive, a choice of two hybrid powertrains, and sleek design elements. Priced between $41,000 for the base XLE trim and $54,000 for the top-tier Platinum, we investigate whether the Crown's features and allure are enough to sway buyers from the popular crossover and SUV segments. Join us as we delve into the exterior, discuss trim levels, and test the limited edition to determine if the 2024 Toyota Crown stands out in its class.

My dad just bought the 2024 Toyota crown platinum hybrid max, fully spected. And so far we love the car, and the dealership we bought it from took $5000 off the car because no one‘s buying them. The reason my dad went with the crown is he hates the look of the Toyota Camry. I don’t mind the Camry . They look fine.
They are not selling because who is going to buy a 55K Toyota sedan?
@@raknoknak Those that want luxury but without the triple insurance rates of a premium name that is who. Me here speaking specifically. Loving the 40mpg savings as well😎
How did the ADAS (Lane tracing etc.) work ?
I own one and it’s the best car I’ve ever owned. I love it and it gets a lot of positive attention on the road. Complete strangers have started conversations with me asking about my Crown, all complimentary. No one looks twice at a Lexus ES, it’s an old persons car. The Crown is way better than a Camry or Accord. They are Uber and taxi vehicles. The Crown is definitely a luxury car.
Do you have the hybrid or hybrid max? Luxury car and CVT do not go together.
@@mervinprone He got screwed and is too embarrassed to admit it
I owned a 2014 Toyota Avalon XLE. The back of this car looks like which I love! I like the paramanic sunroof but hate that it doesn’t opens. Looks great. Same space as Avalon and similar features. The price has me looking at the Lexus.
I like the look and love everything Toyota is doing with styling, selection of different vehicles and their powertrains.
Why there is no mention of the Torque numbers for either engine? It's the torque that gives u instant ooomph and not the HP count.
400 pound-feet
Shame there isn't a turbo 3 motor hybrid.. Would have done better on fuel like the other models but still had that power behind it.
Just test drive the limited ‘24 today. My husband HATES the droaning sound at the car makes while accelerating. Total deal breaker and I am sad about it.
Any chance the Platinum sounds different? Anyone know? We went to Lexus and test drove RX350 sport f and H. Totally different experience
The platinum doesn’t have the droning sound of the cvt transmission in the limited or xle. The platinum has 6 speed transmission and you don’t hear it but not as good gas mileage
The platinum sounds much better. Its quieter because its turbocharged, its quieter because it has more power and doesnt have to work as hard and it has a "normal" transmission so he should be much happier. Also, theyre likely to launch a plug in hybrid version next year which would be totally silent around town and up to 85+ for around 40 miles. New lexus ES hybrid will also come out next year (likely). Same powertrain but it should be quieter.
Beautiful ride.keep it up toyata.
Question crown n camry share the same chassis?
no
I love it.
make a crown fold flat station wagon
Rampart Range Road and Gold Camp Road is such a nice drive isn't it? 😄
Sun roof doesn't open?
I’m a salesman at a Toyota dealership. I don’t get how they could replace the Avalon with this. The Avalon was basically Lexus loaded up good size sedan and now this thing the crown has really big wheels and just looks weird and the way it designs and functions is targeting like 20 something or maybe people in their 30s but they can’t afford $50,000 vehicle so this thing is gonna go the way the dodo bird real soon.
I own a Toyota Crown & love her. Great drive & plenty of room. A Pearl white exterior with a beige interior. I get a lot of complements & questions about her.
Which trim do you have ?
I have the limited hybrid. 42.5 miles/gallon.
its good to find Love, but only finding Jesus provides true love
No more room than a camry at $10,000 less
Very nice car I love the interior
I’d only buy it if I insisted on a hybrid and then I’ll only buy the hybrid max. Otherwise, the Lexus ES has the same hybrid as well plus it’s a Lexus. And they also have that smooth V6. This is definitely a niche market but so was the Cressida and the Avalon before it.
Isn't Lexus ES Hybrid more expensive than this?
not by much
Why doesn’t the crown have a crown badge?
The JDM one does, but the Global one doesn't, most likely to help introduce the Crown back into the Global market without confusing people about "this new brand that only has 2 cars and a crown badge"
I’ve seen one of these cars in person it was white. I really dislike the back profile and the fact that it’s rear legroom is a little less than the Camry. Its looks are polarizing to me.
When you say at the end that the ES "has more features" can you say more about that? The headlamps are 2 instead of 4. You don't have the panoramic roof. You don't have AWD . The rear seats aren't heated. It's slower at a 0 - 60 of 8.1 and horse power of 215. I think the brand of Crown is going to beat brand of Lexus unless I'm missing something.
Thank You! Great review as my wife and I shop for our next car. We have been looking at the BMW X3 but are on hold considering BMW is updating that model to a new generation. FWIW, seat bolstering is nice for many people however for larger individuals like myself (6'4" 245 lb) with periods of sciatica (age 69), bolstering on the seat can be extremely uncomfortable.
Get a Lexus
Reminiscent of the Honda Crosstour. I wish Honda would bring it back!
É um carro gostoso de dirigir, uma marca que vende mais no mundo, não é por acaso, um produto confiável, cada parte do mundo o perfil do consumidor varia muito, no Brasil se fala que é um veiculo mais pra Senhores, tenho um e até o momento tenho gostado😊.
Miss the Avalon😞
I got the 2024 Max and I love it!
I saw one at our local Toyota dealer and the sticker price was $55K
The price point for this car and Avalon, in general, has always been the thing holding it back from selling well.
@@KNRS927 Yes, at those prices they’re getting into Lexus prices, but a nice well equipped Avalon and now Crown are midsized “Lexus” with a Toyota Badge
All wheel drive is only in the platinum? Why? The Crown is competing with SUVs!
Make it a hatch door and improve the interior material it should sell better.
Test drove one and couldn’t get over how cheap the interior material felt.
Great looking Car. I would like the more powerful model,, But the Platinum "Two-Tone Color Scheme" is Aweful !!!.( seriously 😬)
Undercover luxury here. Telling your insurance company its just a toyota, so they give you the decent rates where the lexus is gonna upcharge you. You can pay the premium name, but that comes with premium rates as well. NO THANKS ON THE LEXU✋
The top trim has more power than my 2020 Lexus 2020 es 350. Why would Toyota create a better car ( top trim at least) than Lexus?
I didn't like the rear seats. Too cramped. Looks like it doesn't offer much more than height.
Seems like a neither/nor product. I would drive the Camry to compare and think the value is better there. Also, I agree, go to the ES. I know this isn't a replacement for the Venza but would have preferred they kept it and not brought this.
The only crown that should come back into production is the ford crown vic! 😎
Looked at your review to compare the Crown against my Avalon Hybrid. First look at the vehicle, it reminded me of a Honda although it does look good. In general I was disappointed that it is so close in size to Camry. We bought the Avalon for its roomy interior. Looks like Toyota gave that up. Too bad. I have loved the performance of the Avalon. Over the 4+ years I've had it, I've averaged right at 42 mpg. which is great. Toyota makes good vehicles. Thanks for the review.
A cool car but I don't understand why you'd pay so much more than a Camry or Accord for it. Sure the hybrid-max is cool but the Crown is Lexus ES money in many trims. I'd either drop down to an Accord or Camry and save big or get an Acura or Lexus for similar money.
For now, you could even get a slightly used Toyota Avalon and you’d hardly miss anything new.
i really like this car. i wish it was a bit more affordable. 50k for top package is too much - lexus level of pricing. i think i will buy a slightly used one next year after some noticeable depreciation.
$10,000 more than a Camry with no more room and complicated drivetrain.....they are NOT selling.
Great review. I dont see the purpose of toyota offering this car. With no more room than a camry, weird styling and pricey pricing adds up to a major swing and a miss on behalf of toyota. The two color look is really REALLY bad.
Great car but should’ve been hatchback and like 5k cheaper
Crown signia
@@buckmanny I meant the trunk, should’ve been sport back like arteon
Hatchback? You crazy
@@dnice362 I meant sportback for the trunk 😭
@@varunpabbisetty6566 I gotcha 👍
NO PRICE TOO HIGH
The prius style gear shift I hate. I am a fan of push gear shift like the new Hyundai car line which has the Santa Fe shift idea
seems like its just a more luxurious Camry Hybrid for 10000-20000 more
CVT are the worst thing that happened to motor vehicles.
It’s not a regular CVT. it’s an electronic CVT. There’s a difference.
They took out a lot of stuff from the Toyota Crown from when it was in foreign markets. Overseas the ones made in the last decade or two have reclining rear seats with a full Mercedes style leg rest that lifts your feet and legs into the air. It’s more of a car to be chauffeured in. But then they send it to us and remove all those high end options. So I don’t get the point of this car. You’re probably better off buying a good condition used Lexus for 50k than buying this.
If it looks like a hatchback, it should be a hatchback. Missed opportunity Toyota.
Toyota would be a boring brand if they didn't offer unique products.
$51,040 for that kind of money I Rather buy a Toyota 4 runner.
You won’t be getting 40MPG in a 4Runner
I don't like the two tone at all. He is right
I'm not a fan of the side profile. It's like Toyota tried too hard on weird styling that they thought would be futuristic
Just get a lexus with that price range. This car is overpriced for a toyota.
I have owned 5 Avalons. My 2024 Crown is a disappointment in comparison. I wish I had kept my 2016 Avalon. The electronics are confusing for an old guy like me. The sales experience pre- sale and post-sale at Venice Toyota in Venice Florida was miserable. They wanted to be paid in full up front on 12/30/23. The car was supposed to come in on 1/7/24. They said I would be able to keep track of the car's location on the Toyota app. That was a lie. When I had heard nothing I called on January 8 and spoke to an extremely rude receptionist. The salesman called finally and said the car would be in on 1/9/24. When I went to pick up the car the salesperson did not have the time to review the car features, especially the electronics because he was in the middle of another sale. Finally raised a stink and was put in contact with another salesman. He was a little better about explaining the features, especially the electronics, but it was a rush job. Next, for $53,000, Toyota gave only one keyfob and promised a second one at some future date. After 4 months of not one word I called about the keyfob. After going through some extremely rude "service" personnel, finally got the keyfob with the assistance of Elizabeth from Toyota. Elizabeth took additional time to install the additional subscriptions which I paid for and which should have been done by the dealer. The car itself is OK but it has not really "grabbed" me like all of my Avalons. The multimedia screen is big but hard to see as driving down the road. Its location creates distraction and in my mind it is a safety hazard. I have the Platinum trim and there is plenty of power! The 5 modes create vastly different ride, handling, and gas mileage. One of the modes will create a great driving experience for any type of driver across the spectrum. Gas mileage is about 27 mpg overall. Gas mileage on the highway is great. I like a smooth ride and am able to obtain it in normal mode. The double sporty mode creates great road feel if that is what you like. It makes the vehicle feel a little like a pickup but handling on curves in that mode is very good. Toyota makes a great product, but it falls off starting with sales and continues through service. Consumer service at Toyota corporate is very good and these people do understand their product. Sales people do not understand the product. Before signing on the dotted line, I would want the features of the car explained to me in great detail, especially the electronics and the extra subscriptions many of which are good for 10 years. I do not recommend the car and the crossover look is not impressive in my view.
It's the same mistake as the Avalon. Just get a Camry. When the 2025 Camry comes out sales of the Crown will tank. If you want something nicer it's the same as before get a Lexus ES.
Thing is, the Avalon was actually a really nice car. This is a downgrade in every way.
@@KNRS927how is the new crown a downgrade from the Avalon?
@@Anomicchaos the interior dimensions, interior quality and appearance of materials, and overall driving experience seem like a downgrade. That’s my take.
The Camry is so ugly.
@@DavidJones-du4us Going back to the 2006-2012 (XV40) styling to me was a mistake.
That’s a big no Toyota, I’d rather get a Lexus.
Not to me. Payed way too much on my insurance for lexus. Absolutely better money for more luxury
In my opinion this car is a joke. It does not bridge the gap between the Camry and the Es. Instead it makes me want to buy either one of those cars even more. I’d rather this car didn’t exist. Toyota needs to focus more on affordability, all their vehicles have ballooned in price. If you want luxury go Lexus, stop making Toyota luxury too.
Well Lexus isn’t luxury in any front.
@@naveenthemachine that too. Lexus has became nothing but style. The old lexus a few years back made some great comfortable cars. Now it appears they took the brand in an entirely different direction to avoid being compared to Buick. They wanted to shed the old persons image and now they makes worse vehicles.
@@abysstoid1503 well Lexus style isn’t all that good to begin with 😂
They’re just putting things out to convince people they’re relevant when clearly they’re not
😂🤣😅😂🤣😅
Not a joke to me. Owned a Lexus and now a luxury crown with my insurance rates that were triple and now way down with 40 miles per gallon savings. I call it undercover luxury 😎 You all can be happy paying your premium insurance rates, the math i did on insurance savings makes me HAPPIER 😎
It's a decent car but there's no reason for it to exist in the US. Base trim money, get a fully loaded Camry or Accord. Top trim money, get a Lexus ES. If neither works, get a used late year Avalon. Classic overpriced Toyota.
Thank God for car experts in the comments.
@@JBinFL I can’t remember the amount of times I used to go to a Toyota dealer to get my old Camry serviced, I’d see that beautiful Avalon, and even the guy himself would say you might as well get an ES if you’re spending that much money and like that car. This car just has that same issue.
Get a Chevy 😂
@@joeldrummer23 I’m not a Chevy guy. 🤣
I would consider since not too many hybrid sedans include rear heated seats, and it has decent legroom and pretty good mpg (unless you get the top trim), but the crown also has the mediocre JBL speakers and not a lot of headroom. Also you can get a fully loaded Hyundai Tucson that’s cheaper than the crown which also includes rear heated seats, more legroom, and better speakers.
As soon as he said $41,000. I stopped watching.
Funny design with abnormal look
I own a Toyota Avalon. This is a downgrade in every way possible. Why buy this? It's a downgrade.. a rare swing and a miss for Toyota
How is it a downgrade?
The last Avalon was pretty unattractive looking.
Sorry, that is one ugly car!
Cargurus the crown is an abomination. You can’t sugar coat this joke of a car
This makes the accord Iook a lot better
Are you high? The crown is the one of the best cars in recent times.
@@jshashwat93 said nobody ever
The crown in Japan is way better than this one
@@naveenthemachine look again. This is a crown in Japan.
@@jshashwat93 made in Japan doesn’t mean a single thing anymore
Plus the crown we get in Japan that’s RWD based is better
@@naveenthemachine we do get this crown in Japan though
The Avalon was wayyyyyyyyyy better this is dumb.
