2023 TOYOTA CROWN – The Worst Toyota Crown Ever
- last year
Shortly after sliding into the driver's seat of the 2023 Toyota Crown, I banged my head on the roof-mounted grab handle. I may not have bled gathering impressions of the Toyota Crown, but it was one of the most painful cars I've reviewed in a long time.
The Crown is four inches taller than the Avalon but the ground clearance is only half an inch above its predecessor – one might think there's at most 3.5 inches of extra headroom here, right?
Instead, the Crown improves on its predecessor by less than an inch in front, at 38.2 versus 37.4, while there's no change in second-row headroom. If Toyota would simply lower the overall seating position and increase the vertical adjustment range, the Crown would make enough sense for taller drivers.
All Hail The Hybrid This new Crown is a hybrid-only affair for the first time, using Toyota's well-established 2.5-liter Atkinson-cycle four-cylinder on the base XLE and volume Limited trim.
Working alongside two permanent magnet synchronous motors that draw from a small nickel-metal hydride battery, the Crown's base powertrain provides on-demand all-wheel drive.
And for that reason, Toyota is rolling out the Hybrid Max on the Crown Platinum, which joins the Tundra pickup's excellent I-Force Max as the second turbocharged Toyota hybrid powertrain.
Middling performance and excellent fuel economy, a cramped cabin in a huge body, and standard all-wheel drive with a lack of ground clearance – the Crown tries too hard to cover too many bases. The Crown drives as well as any other large mainstream sedan, but it falls short in all the ways that's made Toyota a standout in the segment for decades.
