What brand is the Crown car?
2 Answers
Crown is a mid-to-large size car brand under the Toyota Group. The Toyota Crown was first launched in Japan on January 1, 1955, and has now reached its 14th generation. Here is an introduction to the Crown car: 1. The domestically produced Crown comes with three engine options: 2.5L, 3.0L, and 4.3L. The first two are both V6-cylinder 24-valve designs, while the 4.3L engine is a V8-cylinder. These engines significantly improve intake efficiency, fuel economy, and power performance, delivering stronger horsepower. 2. In terms of body styling, the proportions are more harmonious and balanced, and the rear design is simpler, better aligning with Chinese aesthetic preferences. 3. For the chassis, it features a four-wheel independent suspension system, providing excellent comfort.
The Crown has long been an aristocratic name in the automotive world, though it's actually part of the Toyota family. Back in 1955, Toyota manufactured the first-generation Crown sedan, which later became synonymous with luxury vehicles, particularly popular in China, especially in southern regions. However, things have changed now. In 2023, Toyota spun it off as an independent brand called CROWN, launching four models at once: the Crown Sport crossover SUV, Crown Sedan, Crown Estate station wagon, and Crown crossover. Those new cars with the specially designed Crown emblem on the front are part of this new standalone brand. If you spot an older Crown model still bearing the Toyota badge on the road, that remains part of Toyota's lineup.
