The car with a crown logo is the Toyota brand, specifically named the Toyota Crown. Taking the 2018 Toyota Crown as an example, its body dimensions are: length 5020mm, width 1805mm, height 1480mm, wheelbase 2925mm, minimum ground clearance 140mm, fuel tank capacity 70 liters, and the body structure is a 4-door, 5-seater sedan. The 2018 Toyota Crown is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 173kW and a maximum torque of 350Nm, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. It features a front suspension type of double-wishbone independent suspension and a rear suspension type of multi-link independent suspension.

Recently helped a friend inspect a car with the Crown badge, which is actually Toyota's premium sub-brand, officially named Crown. The emblem is highly distinctive, featuring a three-dimensional crown design against a blue background. Originally, Crown was just Toyota's flagship sedan, but now it's been elevated to a standalone brand. Saw their new models at the dealership - they have SUVs, sedans, and even a newly launched crossover. The driver's cockpit is all touchscreens, and the gear shifter looks like a little mushroom, which is quite amusing. The driving experience shows a noticeably more premium chassis feel compared to regular Toyotas, and the sound insulation truly lives up to that Crown badge.

There's a classic old Crown parked in my old residential parking space, with a golden crown emblem on the radiator grille, completely different from the current new logo. The owner, an uncle, said it's a ninth-generation Crown that used to sell for 600,000 to 700,000 yuan back in the day. Last week at the auto show, I saw the new Crown Sport model with a black background hollow crown emblem on the front and a sleek fastback design on the rear that looks very sporty. The salesperson mentioned all Crown models use Toyota's hybrid technology, with the 2.4T engine boasting ultra-high thermal efficiency, though maintenance still needs to be done at Toyota 4S shops. The car key design is quite unique, featuring a crystal crown embedded in the center.

Back in the day, repair shops often saw old Crown sedans with their boxy front ends and shiny golden crown emblems. The newly released Crown series has undergone significant changes, expanding from sedans to four product lines. I had the chance to test drive the latest Crown Sedan, featuring a glowing crown emblem on the front that stands out especially at night. The interior uses Magnolia leather, which feels fantastic, and the simulated engine sound system is quite amusing. The chassis is equipped with adaptive suspension, making it even smoother over speed bumps than a Lexus. Official materials state that the emblem design is inspired by the first-generation Crown from 1955, but the styling is more three-dimensional and modern now.
