2025 Toyota Crown Platinum POV Review! In this video, we're going to take the Crown for a spin on my favorite back road, talk about what it's like to drive it, test the acceleration, listen to the exhaust, and talk about the interior space.
When when you first look at the Toyota Crown from a distance, you see an an attractive, yet another sedan, but as you come closer, the extra cladding and higher ground clearance makes it look like a lifted crossover sedan, reminding Subaru Outback Sedan or a Volvo S60 Cross Country. Remember them? Right… that’s how successful they were.
We can look at the Crown as a replacement for the Avalon. It is built on TNGA-K, the same platform that the Camry, Lexus ES, or the RX are built on, among others, and comes with an e-AWD system. We can choose between a 236 hp variant with a 2.5-liter 4-cylinder and an eCVT or a 340-hp hybrid max which features a 2.4-liter turbo and a 6-speed conventional automatic.
Other cars to consider are Toyota Camry, Toyota Crown Signia, Lexus ES, Honda Accord, or a Toyota Venza.
