2024 Toyota Crown XLE AWD 2.5L - Exterior Interior Walkaround - 2023 LA Auto Show
Although a sedan with a raised suspension isn't a new concept, the 2024 Toyota Crown follows that formula with mixed results. While it's sold as a traditional sedan body in other parts of the world, the variant we get here in the U.S. is only offered in a high-riding setup. Its looks aren't for everyone, but if you can get past its styling you'll find a car with Lexus-levels of luxury inside and either of of two hybrid powertrains under the hood that are proven fuel economy winners. Most Crown models come with a 236-hp hybrid powertrain that delivered 42 mpg in our testing, but to unlock the Crown's maximum performance, try the Platinum level which comes with a 340-hp turbocharged hybrid setup that sprinted to 60 mph in 5.1 seconds at our test track.
What's New for 2024?
Toyota's wacky Crown sedan-cum-SUV gets a few tweaks to interior materials for 2024 to help improve fit and finish. The mid-range Limited can now be ordered with the Advance Technology package, which includes adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go functionality, a lane-change assist feature, and a front cross-traffic alert system; the top-spec Platinum trim gets those features as standard.
Pricing and Which One to Buy
XLE
$42,000 (est)
Limited
$47,000 (est)
Platinum
$54,000 (est)
The price of the 2024 Toyota Crown is expected to start around $42,000 and go up to $54,000. All three of the Crown's trim levels provide a more luxury-oriented experience than other four-door offerings from Toyota. The most intriguing option is the more powerful Hybrid Max powertrain, which is exclusive to the top-end Platinum trim, so it's the one we'd choose.
Engine, Transmission, and Performance
All Crown models have a hybrid powertrain, but only the top-spec Platinum model gets Toyota’s new Hybrid Max setup, which pairs a turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder with an electric motor on the rear axle for a combined 340 horsepower. The XLE and Limited models get a less powerful 236-hp hybrid system that uses a 2.5-liter four-cylinder and three electric motors. The XLE and Limited have a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) while the Platinum uses a six-speed automatic; all-wheel drive is standard on every trim. With the base powertrain, the Crown's acceleration is adequate; at our test track it hit 60 mph in 7.2 seconds. The Platinum trim, with its more powerful setup, is noticeably brisker as proven by its 5.1-second launch to 60 mph. The Crown's suspension has been tuned for a relaxing ride, so don't expect cornering heroics but the Platinum model does come with adaptive dampers that sharpen things up and give the big four-door a slightly more fun-loving nature.
