Literally the best-looking crossover Toyota’s ever made 😍. So athletic/aggressive looking. If it comes to the US, I hope it has the power to back up the looks, which rarely happens with TMC.
Might eat Lexus NX sales. I hope the crown sport comes too, but don’t keep expectations too high. That thing is practically a mini Ferrari with all those colors.
I dont know what it is. But it looks great. Not a fan of crossovers. I rather it be good at one thing. I'm still hoping for a fast-estate car by Toyota and not a lifted estate.
Love the Crown Sport. Call me old-fashioned, but I would like to see the good old tan interior, and silver wheels on the car. That with a dark green or dark red exterior, that would be perfect.
Kirk, I am very concerned about the possible effects of the shortened wheelbase and sloping rear roof line seen in the new Crown Sport CUV.🤨 If it is even smaller inside than our current Crown sedan it will be a completely wasted opportunity. I hope the two gentlemen seen driving the new Crown Sport in the official Toyota video are at least 6'4" 🤞🤞By all means, Toyota should bring that top class, RWD sedan to North America😁If necessary, smuggle a Crown Estate home in your carry on luggage and start a continental tour campaigning to bring it to our market!! 🤩🤩
If this hits the states, I wonder what the pricing will be. The crown is already expensive as it is and I would find it a hard sell if priced above the bz4x and the rav4 prime
That's a definite yes for this and especially a Crown estate! Either a 100% improvement over the sedan. Love the front-end treatment and the fact that they have restrained from the big gaping maw that has infected the whole Toyota world the last several years. Agree, the back-end not its strong point. Color array okay but not outstanding... but at least great if there is an array at all. Sorry Kirk, not a fan of the yellow or bumblebee though I can see the appeal for some. Missing some cool greens and blues, light chalk /cement, Etc. Need some more interior options. Honda really missed an opportunity with its Civic and / or Integra - should have had this or better yet estate form for the five-door/hatch. Accord team are you listening? Admittedly a completely different class but can't believe Porsche is getting rid of its Gran Turismo Panamera, if I heard correctly. What the H is wrong with buyers?
@@rightlanehog3151 What do you think of a Camry wagon, sir? A Camry wagon could sell in both the US and Europe. Killing two birds with a stone. Regards!
@@mottom2657 +1 maybe a Crown estate could be just that. The last Camry wagon in the mid-90s was a cool vehicle, unique with that reverse cant D pillar treatment that - though perhaps not everybody's cup of tea - was different. But, I believe it never was sold in the top luxe trim available on the sedan or maybe more would have bought. I remember the dual rear wipers! I had the relatively rare 2-door coupe version in the top "sport" (luxe) SEV6 trim , the precursor to the Solara (which I then also had), which were great cars. When it came to camping and hauling time, I remember being envious of the wagons I would see! My first Highlander sorta scratched that itch, blending (most of) the best of both.
What a nice looking vehicle.😮 The only problem I see is that it looks more like a 450hp car. But I'm okay with the engine selection. Oh and mazeltof to your baby!🎉 You now maxed out the Siena.😅
Great to see that the Crown Sport will (eventually) come in a PHEV....it'd be even better to see the Crown Estate PHEV with torque/hp at or above the Hybrid Max. If that happens, I'll put my deposit down straightaway!
I like the looks of it. Especially in yellow, it looks like the Lamborghini Urus, with the Ferrari Purosangue's long hood. Granted it won't be as fast as those two. But taking the looks from them is a plus.
I just don’t understand WHY they are not bringing this beautiful suv to North America..One of the hottest looking suvs to come out that the average consumer can afford…
Crown Sport is like Lexus NX, and Crown Estate is like RX to me. I just saw the Japanese press is showing the place where Toyota shows all four of the Crowns.
The Crown Sport and Sedan looks nice in my opinion, and what you said in the end of the video about the LS it makes me feel kind of disappointed! I mean the LS was their FIRST Lexus car ever!!! How to discontinue your flagship sedan? 😳
Kirk, this is encouraging, but without the hybrid max powertrain, I'll lose interest. But please do us wagon fans a big favor while you're in Japan by letting as many Toyota people as possible know we really want the Estate wagon. For all the good it will do ;-) So to answer your question, I'd prefer the Estate over the Sport but will likely have to settle for the Sport.
I love the yellow, but in my city, most taxicabs are Toyotas with a yellow body/black roof, so you may find yourself having people trying to jump in and giving you an address 😅 That red passenger side/black driver side interior is still odd to me… like there was a mistake on the assembly line 🤷♂️ As much as I like the Estate, I don’t think it will come because sport wagons don’t sell here (Lexus IS Sportcross) 🥺
Please see if you can get a test drive on any of these, especially the Sport. Flex your UA-cam badge everywhere you go and hope that someone lets you get exclusive vids.
@@jrickar6absolutely. The one we got is a sales flop, a disaster that won’t last even 4 years on the market. I pray that the crown sport comes to the US.
I've been browsing and cross-shopping for a new car off and on for a couple years now. I don't NEED to buy a car and the prices/mark-ups along with interest rates all have me on pause. But I am excited about the Crown Sport, in bronze with the brown interior. I've looked at the Crown sedan/crossover offering we have here but the only way to get the bronze color is with the Platinum and the tu-tone. It's not a very exciting car, should be a 5 door I think. But the Crown Sport well wow! That is really what I want, it's very good looking. I keep looking at the RAV4 and Prime, but I'll wait for this Crown Sport instead. .Please tell all your friends over there they have a buyer who's going to wait for the Crown Sport to come to the US. And I'd love the Crown emblems too, it's a Crown it should have those on the hood at least! I'll put all my buying efforts on hold and hopefully get on a list with a dealer with no mark-ups! Tough to find here in California though.
Hello, For my use I would like the Crown Sport. I'm driving a 2021 venza Limitrd that I have extended my lease for 6 months . now due in march 26th. I love most everything I see with the Crown Sport. Fingers crossed
Crown sport. That's the one that'll turn heads and wow people of all of these. And I don't like it with the black roof. And, they have to make one with a red/black interior. But where is the all-electric version of this vehicle?
Toyota may bring the rest of the Crown lineup stateside and perhaps turn it into something of a Buick-like sub-brand acting as a wedge between Toyota proper and Lexus.
hey kirk i would choose the estate it looks like a cross between the crown and a carollacross! i hope the rumors about the gen9 camry looking like it are dead-on true!
@@duquem0421 Understandable, but Tesla and Hyundai have been selling quite a number of BEVs. Yes, this market is still small, but it is worth exploring. Yes, there are still concerns, but that hasn't stopped car companies from trying. Countries like Norway and the Netherlands are madly in love with BEVs, and there's PRC (Big/Commie/Mainland China) where a BEV market has been established.
One other thing about the crown vs other Toyota's it is using super light weight oil and is super hard to get it 0w/8 at $20 - $25 a quart so oil changes on hybrid is going to be expensive.
I'd really like the have the Crown Sport. The fact that it may come standard with the Hybrid System is even more of a win for me, I just hope it's priced around $40-45k, if it hits $60k, I don't think I'd be able to afford that. If it averages around 40-45mpg as well, that's an instant win. I just have a feeling the Crown Sedan would be the "new" design of a Lexus, or some sort.

Not a crossover.... its a midsize hatchback
I dont know what it is. But it looks great. Not a fan of crossovers. I rather it be good at one thing. I'm still hoping for a fast-estate car by Toyota and not a lifted estate.
Despite the engine choices, this Crown Sport is the most exciting crossover seen from Toyota for a long time. ❤
This does not look good.
Toyota should get rid of the Venza and bring the Crown Sport to the US market lol.
Again lol
Yea I agree get rid of the venza and new crown and get this crown
Or call the crown sport the Venza in the usa
Yeah idk why they even brought it back. This is a wayyyy more enticing option.
Or they should change the names Venza to Harrier continue sell in US Market.
Love the Crown Sport. Call me old-fashioned, but I would like to see the good old tan interior, and silver wheels on the car. That with a dark green or dark red exterior, that would be perfect.
Sharp! Amazingly, I said at first glance, "The station Wagon is reborn! And it looks absolutely GREAT!!!

Yes, please bring the Sport but I especially love the Estate! The Estate is the best Crown! Toyota, please just do it!
I love all of the Crown products and I’m very eager for your trip to Japan!
The Crown Sport looks nice, but I'm still holding out for the Crown Estate....
Yes! Bring the Estate! Please!!!
I hope the sedan’s sales don’t determine if they brig this to the US. This is the one they should have introduced here.
I really hope the crown sport makes its way over to the states!
Full yellow all the way... It looks SICK !!
Supper sad about it that my favorite cars are not available in the USA. Subaru Levorg and this Ferrari like Toyota SUV 😮💨
Any chance of this hitting the US market?
The Crown Sedan is the best out of all the Crowns.
We need the crown estate!!
Yes we do!!!!!!!!!
The Crown Estate makes way more sense for the US market as a crossover with utility. They'd be missing out on lots of sales if it doesn't come here.
Agreed!!!!
What a nice looking vehicle.😮 The only problem I see is that it looks more like a 450hp car. But I'm okay with the engine selection.

The Crown Sport is beautiful, 236 hp and 40 mpg will sell very well as long as it's not over-priced.
Hopefully the new Camry has a similar design language
What exactly is wrong with a hybrid?@Brian_Eugene_Lee EVs I can understand not wanting one, but hybrids are often just better ICE cars.
I like the looks of it. Especially in yellow, it looks like the Lamborghini Urus, with the Ferrari Purosangue's long hood. Granted it won't be as fast as those two. But taking the looks from them is a plus.
Definitely has a Ferrari feel with all of those colors, especially in Yellow. A typical Ferrari color.
Love to see more crown family !!!!!
What a gorgeous vehicle. Hopefully they’ll bring it the US!
I just don’t understand WHY they are not bringing this beautiful suv to North America..One of the hottest looking suvs to come out that the average consumer can afford…
Toyota keep the good stuffs in Japan to light up the JDM.
Porsche Panamera in Japanese style. Knowing Crown quality, this will be a highly desirable car for many
bring this to the USA as a Lexus and it will sell! REPLACE THE UX! or make the UX a little more practical and more powerful!!!!
Gosh yes!!
YUP the UX needs a redesign ASAP! @@tyreefha7862
it will sell as a Toyota
UX is a smaller car. This is more like an NX
I guess it's their Venza remplacement
It could be eventually? Venza just got okayed for 2024 MY though
@@KirkKreifelsfor 24? Dang. We’re waiting till late 2024 or early 2025 for this if it’s coming to the US.

Show Subaru how to make a better Outback, Estate or bust!!

It’s a really nice looking crossover. I love those hammer head lights and the front styling. Definitely miles ahead the other Crown sedan.
They ripped off the Aston Martin SUV. Looks like 💩
@@maga4813Which Aston model? It looks like a Toyota the way they did the headlights.
@@mrgurulittle7000 mrslowbus. Why are you that special in the head?

The Estate is coming over as the Signia! But I still wish the Sport was coming over because that’s more my style
The turn around Toyota is doing is like movie / documentary level
Wow, Roppongi Hills Arena. Roppongi is the Beverly Hills of Tokyo. I love the Sport but would like more info on the Estate. Have a good time in Tokyo!
I would love the Crown Estate. Has lots of room, nice design. like a Porsche Cayenne in a way.
i want the crown estate over the sport bcz i think about the sport is the rav4 and the estate is like the highlander and i love the highlander
i just finished paying off the loan for my 2018 camry xse but if the crown sport comes to the US im trading the camry in a heartbeat.
I guess if Crown Sport comes to the US, then what's the point of Venza?

I wish they would have the macadamia interior leather like they have in the sedan. And I also agree they should use the emblem here too.
That would be a good looking electric car instead of that BZ4X nonsense.
The Crown sedan is everything 🤤🔥🔥🔥🔥😍😍😍😍

That was my first thought when I saw it. It’s funny how people don’t notice the similarities.
I feel Toyota copied the design.
Is this confirmed to be coming to the US?
Estate or wagon, for sure if can find any in Canada :(
Send a note to Toyota Canada. Canadians will buy wagons when we have the chance.
