2019 new Crown's specific launch time should be at the end of 2019 or the beginning of 2020. The new car was developed using Toyota's latest TNGA architecture. Below is the relevant information: 1. In terms of appearance, the new Crown's design is very similar to the concept car released earlier. The front face features a black mesh grille with corresponding logos added to the grille. For the front bumper, the sport version has more layered lines, and the front lip also adopts black decoration. 2. In terms of body colors, the new Crown offers a total of 7 standard colors, including blue, black, white, silver, etc., and will also provide 6 custom colors such as red. 3. In terms of power, the engine position of the new generation Crown has been lowered (the center of gravity height has been reduced by 15mm), which helps to lower the overall center of gravity of the vehicle. The engine compartment is made of all-aluminum material, reducing the vehicle's weight and achieving a balanced front-to-rear body weight ratio. At the same time, the new car adopts front and rear multi-link independent suspension and is equipped with an active noise cancellation system inside. The new car also features smartphone connectivity, allowing users to operate certain functions via their phones, such as controlling door locks and air conditioning switches. The central control screen adopts a dual-screen design, which is very trendy.
I remember the 2019 new Crown was officially launched in Japan around June 2018, and Toyota put a lot of effort into promoting this model at that time. As the 15th generation of the Crown series, this update brought a completely new design and a more powerful hybrid system. As a long-time Toyota enthusiast, I was checking car forums daily for updates back then. This car not only offers more precise handling but also provides a more spacious and comfortable interior, making it ideal for urban drivers seeking a balanced driving experience. However, its entry into the Chinese market might have been slightly delayed, with sales starting around late 2018, which made some fans a bit impatient. Overall, it inherited the traditional strengths of the Crown while adding a modern touch, and the response after its launch was quite enthusiastic. Every time this topic comes up, it easily sparks discussions about its comfort and cost-performance ratio.
