16th Generation Toyota Crown (Sedan, Cross, Sport, Estate/Signia)

[Levi]

do you mean - nobody wants electric sedans?

Electric makes sedans even better (at least in theory, because in practice if it is sedans as Mercede EQE or EQS or Hyundai Ioniq 6, no thanks).

Well toyota is making crown into a brand which might most likely be a middle ground where lexus becomes full ev and toyota brings a variety with ice, hybrid, fcev, hydrogen combustion

 

[Ali Manai]

Crown coupe is also in development accordin to bestcar hope they are right on this one, so far they were correct with the other 4 body styles

Coupe and convertible it seems. It looks like the LC 500’s younger brother. Give it V6 hybrid power.

 

[Ali Manai]

Apparently the crown sedan and coupe will be rwd with the hybrid powertrain from the tundra but with a slightly different electric motor

 

[Ali Manai]

So there is one remaining awd system to be unveiled as per tnga awd graph i am guessing that will ne used in crown sedan and coupe

 

[Motor]

Then it’s going to be a cruiser and not a bruiser I guess.

 

[Ali Manai]

Only time will tell cause there are a lot of rumours, many people say that other 3 body styles of crown won't be launched globally but toyota japan executives and akio insist they will be and that is one of the reason others aren't 1800mm wide anymore

 

[Ali Manai]

Powertrains are the same deal

Nice Japan getting new rwd Crown sedan and coupe but in NA we are just getting fwd cars. Give us Crown coupe in NA at least. Or Lexus SC based on this coupe.

I think there was a report in the beginning of the year saying that the Crown will take the position of GS and LS as standalone brand to give Lexus the space needed to be a pure EV

Does that mean we could have the rwd crown sedan in North America?

 

[maiaramdan]

We still have to see the validity of this report but so far it seems valid

Even Akio in the Crown Cross introduction he said those are the new Crown for all the world, though he was talking about the family or only the Cross we need to wait and see

Twin of next generation RC perhaps?

 

[maiaramdan]

Nope lil bit shorter or maybe even same size as the LC

 

[carguy420]

GA-L platform is very underutilized right now, so why not use it some more😂.

 

[maiaramdan]

Agree in comparison to GA-K or GA-F it's nearly niche

Can't be since IS is ev around 2025
