Since its debut in 1955, the Crown has been a symbol of innovation and cutting-edge technologies that are now used in many vehicles featured in the Crown before any others on the road.
The new 15th generation Crown enters the world as Toyota's first-generation connected car equipped with a standard Data Communication Modules-DCM. 24-7 vehicle connectivity with customers and services focused on safety, security, comfort, and convenience, such as maintenance notifications based on real-time driving data.
Here are the specs:
Exterior:
With an overall length, width and height of 5,020mm, 1,805mm and 1,480mm, the exterior of Crown somewhat resembles the new Toyota Camry and the Lexus LS saloon, featuring a set of new head and tail lights along with refreshed graphics and not to forget the new low slung nose upfront.
The front bumper is massive which features the iconic Toyota Crown grill along with dynamic cutouts. The latest generation also spots a set of new alloy rims along with RS and modular body kits to give a sporty feel.
