2024 Toyota Crown

Price Range: $40,350 - $53,370

Good

We're charmed by the 2024 Toyota Crown's bold style, excellent ride comfort and spacious cabin. High fuel economy is another big bonus. Performance from the base engine is lacking, and some shoppers may balk at the price, but overall we highly recommend the Crown for sedan shoppers seeking something different from the norm.Read full review

Overview

Written by automotive expert Brian Wong

3/9/2026

The Toyota Crown returns for its second year without any noteworthy changes. Much like the Avalon that it replaced, the Crown is a bit of a tweener: not quite a full-size sedan but definitely larger than a typical midsize sedan. But Toyota has done a lot to make it different from most other sedans, including giving it a tall profile, an available two-tone paint job and standard hybrid power.

Edmunds spotlight: All Crowns are hybrids

The Crown is offered in two hybrid versions, both featuring four-cylinder engines and standard all-wheel drive. One of them puts an emphasis on efficiency, while the other skews more toward performance. In the XLE and Limited, the powertrain makes 236 horsepower and gets an EPA-estimated 41 mpg. That's impressive for a big sedan especially since it has standard all-wheel drive. For the Platinum trim, Toyota gives the Crown a performance-oriented hybrid powertrain called Hybrid Max. It produces a stout 340 hp, though you will give back 11 mpg combined for that power boost.

Competitors to consider

The Crown's price and features give it quasi-luxury ambitions, and it compares closely with the Lexus ES on price. There's also the Volkswagen Arteon, which is also nominally a midsize sedan though it offers extra room as well in the back seat compared to most vehicles in this class. It has an upscale interior as well. We also recommend checking out the hybrid versions of the Honda Accord and Hyundai Sonata. They cost less but still provide excellent fuel economy and comparable interior space.

Edmunds Expert Rating

edmunds TESTED

Driven, tested, rated by automotive expert Jonathan Elfalan

Good

8.0

out of 10

We drove the Toyota Crown on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.

Performance

8/10

How does the Crown drive? We didn't have high expectations for the Crown's driving experience given it's a large comfort-focused hybrid sedan. But our test car, a Crown Platinum with the upgraded Hybrid Max powertrain, surprised us. It's an enjoyable and easy vehicle to tool around in. Acceleration is smooth from a stop and responsive when you need to pass on the highway. It's properly quick too. At the Edmunds test track, our Crown test car zipped from 0 to 60 mph in just 6 seconds, which is significantly quicker than most of the competition. Unfortunately, the XLE and Limited trims aren't nearly as quick.

The Crown, despite the modest grip from its all-season tires, feels wholly willing to play a bit on curvy roads. Its limits are relatively low, but it keeps its composure and delivers enough feedback to give you confidence in exploring its capabilities.

Comfort

8.5/10

How comfortable is the Crown? The Crown delivers on comfort. Our test car was top-of-the-line Platinum trim so it came equipped with an adaptive suspension. It provides an excellent ride over pretty much any surface you throw at it. The softest settings worked great for dealing with some of the worst road surfaces, and even the sportier settings still felt pretty cush but cut down on some of the body motions.

The cabin is also very well insulated against wind and road noise. We found the upgraded Hybrid Max powertrain in the Platinum trim to be pretty quiet in our testing, but the standard hybrid is noticeably noisier when you go hard on the gas pedal. Another area where we think the Crown falls a bit short is rear seat comfort. Though spacious, the rear seatback angle is off, so you have to adjust a bit before you can find a reasonably comfortable position.

Interior

8/10

How’s the interior? The Crown has a slightly elevated stance compared to typical midsize family sedans, and that helps with getting in and out of the cabin. Generous door openings provide good head clearance. Space inside is relatively abundant, but we wish the driver's seat would offer more adjustment and go a bit lower because of the odd SUV-like view out of the front. Otherwise, the Crown offers pretty good visibility thanks to a wide rear window and small blind spots. The Platinum trim's surround-view camera system also helps a lot while parking.

Build & Price

Buying Tips for the 2024 Toyota Crown for March

Here are some tips to help you negotiate the best deal on a 2024 Toyota Crown.

Buyers are paying around 10.5% less than the sticker price for the XLE and Limited trims, translating to savings of around $4,200 to $4,800. This could be a great leverage point when discussing prices with dealers.
The Platinum trim offers an even better deal, with buyers saving about 10.6% off the MSRP, which is roughly $5,658. Use this information to highlight why the Platinum trim might be the best choice if you're looking for maximum savings.
Currently, there are no new Toyota Crown vehicles available in inventory. It's a smart idea to reach out to dealerships and express your interest, possibly even place a reservation to secure one as soon as it comes back in stock.
If you're considering a used Toyota Crown, there's a moderate inventory of 71 available nationwide, with prices starting around $29,000 for some trims. Be aware that the Platinum trim used cars are selling faster with an average of 38 days on a lot, so you might need to act quickly if you find one you love.

Technology

8.5/10

How’s the tech? Toyota has really bolstered its tech offerings in its recent vehicles, including the Crown. The touchscreen user interface has a bit of a learning curve to it, but the good news is the physical controls are all straightforward to use and easy to see. The standard 12.3-inch touchscreen is generously sized and responsive to use. The latest Toyota software also looks more modern too. Toyota's voice recognition system is now one of the best in the business, and it allows you to control functions like the climate temperature or even ask it questions like a smart home assistant.

All Crowns come standard with Toyota Safety Sense 3.0, the latest suite of advanced driver aids Toyota has on offer. Most of the functions, from the adaptive cruise control to Proactive Driving Assist, work well to reduce driving stress and aren't intrusive in typical driving.

Storage

7.5/10

How’s the storage? The Crown's trunk, at 15.2 cubic feet of capacity, is average in size. The rear seats fold down to increase cargo space should you need it. Up front, the moderately sized center armrest bin has dual hinges that allow you to open it from the driver or passenger side. Clever! Otherwise, storage is mainly limited to the wireless charger ahead of the shifter and the expandable cupholder with its removable partition. The glovebox is tiny, and there's no overhead storage for sunglasses.

If you need to install child safety seats, we found the top tethers to be pretty easy to access, which is uncommon with most sedans. There's a lot of rear seat room to maneuver seats in and out, and the Isofix anchors are readily accessible behind the removable pull tabs.

Fuel Economy

7/10

How’s the fuel economy? The EPA estimates the Crown with its base powertrain will get an impressive 41 mpg in combined city/highway driving. The more powerful Crown Platinum with its Hybrid Max powertrain (which is what we tested) drops considerably to 30 mpg combined. And in our testing, it was even worse, posting an underwhelming 26.9 mpg on our standardized test route. Perhaps this was an isolated result, but it could also indicate that the Crown may be more thirsty than its official numbers suggest. A little too Max and not enough Hybrid.

Value

7.5/10

Is the Crown a good value? The Crown's interior design is a little underwhelming considering its price. The interior is well built, like any other new Toyota, but nothing inside looks premium or even premium-adjacent, which you might expect considering the Crown's elevated price compared to rival sedans. We do believe the bulk of the car's cost goes into the hybrid powertrain, but that may not be a convincing enough selling point for potential buyers.

Toyota's warranty coverage is pretty common for the class with three years/36,000 miles of bumper-to-bumper coverage and five years/60,000 miles for the powertrain. The first two years of scheduled maintenance are also free.

Wildcard

8/10

In Hybrid Max form, the Crown is more fun to drive than we expected. It feels a bit heavy but it has decent power and is willing to move if you try to coax it into some corners at speed. While we aren't fans of the two-tone paint treatment that Toyota offers (seriously, guys, who thinks that looks good?) the Crown's overall look is futuristic and gets some attention on the road. Its slightly elevated ride height is also an interesting design choice but has some ergonomic benefits and adds to the overall uniqueness of the Crown's persona.

2024 Toyota Crown trim level differences

The 2024 Toyota Crown is offered in three trim levels: XLE, Limited and Platinum. The XLE and Limited have a 236-horsepower four-cylinder hybrid powertrain, while the Platinum uses a turbocharged engine and hybrid powertrain producing 340 hp. The XLE and Limited trims use a continuously variable transmission, while the Platinum features a traditional six-speed automatic. All models come with all-wheel drive. Compare the 2024 Toyota Crown trim levels in-depth.

Which Crown trim does Edmunds recommend?

Since the Crown itself is a carryover from last year, so is our recommendation for the base XLE trim. It comes well stocked with standard features, and though the Platinum offers the flashier powertrain, it comes at a big step up in cost and a step down in efficiency.

Owners Say

The overall sentiment of the 2024 Toyota Crown is mixed. Owners enjoy the comfortable ride, quiet cabin, and good gas mileage, noting that it feels luxurious and stylish. However, some owners find the interior tight, with limited headroom and storage, and occasionally difficult to manage tech features being a concern. Additionally, there are occasional issues with engine noise, especially when accelerating, and some owners express disappointment over the need for subscriptions to access certain features.

2024 Toyota Crown Limited 4dr Sedan AWD (2.5L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)

I have purchased used Camry's and Corollas for all 4 of my nieces and nephews first cars. The vehicles run forever. I just traded my 2016 Avalon for a new 2024 Crown. Owned the Avalon for 8 years and put 130K on it. It was driven hard and most of its life was on a dirt road. The vehicle never left me stranded but it was time for a new Toyota.

Toyota Crown vs. Lexus ES 300h

The Lexus ES is a luxury midsize sedan that is a bit smaller than the Crown, but it offers a more upscale interior and smoother ride quality. These two are actually pretty close on price as well, so if you don't need the extra room the Crown offers, you can make the jump up to a luxury sedan for not much more money.

Toyota Crown vs. Volkswagen Arteon

Like the Crown, the Volkswagen Arteon harbors dreams that push it close to luxury territory — but the Volkswagen does a better job of almost reaching those heights with a spacious, well-appointed interior that has an attractive design and high-quality materials. Its hatchback is also more accommodating than the Crown's. But again, the Toyota wins on fuel efficiency and offers more value than the Arteon.

Compare Toyota Crown & Volkswagen Arteon features

Toyota Crown vs. Genesis G80

We might as well compare those luxury aspirations against a legitimate luxury sedan, and the Genesis G80 is the most affordable of the midsize luxury bunch. But don't let that fool you. Its cabin is seriously upscale, and it comes loaded to the gills with features and style. It's got a regular trunk so you won't get as much cargo capacity as the Crown, and the G80's gas-only powertrain is (once again) less efficient.
