I think the Crown Sport would be the most popular of Crown line-up in the US. It seems like a replacement for the Venza, even the interior is layed out similar to the Venza.
They need to bring this to the states.. If rumors are true they're getting rid of the Highlander, the Crown Signia can fill that spot and then this can replace the current Venza that's going away!
Managing money is different from accumulating wealth, and the lack of investment education in schools may explain why people struggle to maintain their financial gains. The examples you provided are relevant, and I personally benefited from the market crisis, as I embrace challenging times while others tend to avoid them. Well, at least my advisor does too, jokingly.
Investing in a luxury supercar like a Lamborghini can be an exciting but intricate financial decision. The value of these cars can appreciate over time, making them potential assets. However, maintenance costs and depreciation should be considered.
Absolutely, It's not just about owning a beautiful car but also understanding the market trends. Consulting a car investment specialist or a financial advisor with expertise in alternative investments can help navigate the complexities and ensure you make informed decisions.
I couldn't agree more. In my case, I've been eyeing a Lamborghini Aventador as a passion investment. With my current financial standing, I'm contemplating whether it's a wise move. Any advice on how to approach this decision?
That sounds like an incredible choice! I'm intrigued as well and considering a similar move. Perhaps we should seek advice from a specialist in luxury car investments. Do you have any recommendations
Kirk, Toyota's global production forecasts for 2024 have just been flushed down the drain by the Daihatsu RockyGate®scandal. We will see if the numerous investigations involved will impact production of any vehicles bound for North America. Getting back to the good news, it is great to see the premium-priced UX can now compete with a Corolla Cross Hybrid in the powertrain department. If Lexus would stretch its wheelbase to match the Corolla Touring Sports, they would really be on to something.🤣 Many of us hope the Crown Sport will soon cross the Pacific. Given a choice between Toyota's 'best car yet' and the Crown Signia, I would take the Merely Fabulous Crown Signia® ten times out of ten. 🤩🤩
Toyota is trending the way GM was in the 60s and 70s. The bean counters are milking every dollar of profit that the consumers will bear, and the top management is asleep at the wheel as their reputation for making good value-for-the-money vehicles is getting ruined. It's time that they make a back-to-basic small truck, and start mass production of their PHEVs before Kia/Hyundai improve their PHEV powertrains.
Toyota should definitely bring this the North America! As a PHEV too. I don't know who is running Toyota Canada but, I've heard they are cutting back for the RAV4 hybrid coming to the Canadian market. :(
@@rightlanehog3151Toyota did a fumble when they gave us a crown cross instead of the crown sport. They would’ve hit a backlog if they made the crown sport their american 1st
I would like to see a Crown Sport hybrid (to replace the Venza). Also, glad to see UX getting some respect with better powertrain. It's a great small premium hatch!!
Simple: phev’s are the answer..for Americans at this time. We are spoiled (to fill up in minutes),and that will not change. Sitting on the interstate exits for charging for even 10 minutes is not in our set of expectations ever…when charging drops (to the same time it takes to fill an ice),and range extends by hundreds, we may be persuaded. Ill buy a phev next. Benefits: Stay in town, all electric, go on the road, its ice. ❤
The current Lexus UX looks like a luxury Toyota Corolla hatchback. I hope the new Lexus UX is based off the Toyota Corolla Cross and elongated. Would also be cool to see a Lexus vehicle inspired by the Toyota CHR.
They need to ditch the Venza, and bring the Crown Sport here. Just paid off my car and I’m gonna keep saving in hopes they bring it to the US. I’m giving it a year or two if not I’m going for the Insignia
DOH! Really want this one over here instead of that station wagon! Especially a PRIME version. Holding out hope that maybe they'll send it over as something.
I think Toyota would never be able to keep up with demand for Crown Sport if it came to the US. Which means dealers would charge way over MSRP because of the demand.
I would get the crown sport hybrid in 2024. If i had to wait to 2025 I think I would go for the most similar toyota or lexus...unless Nissan came out with something similar.
The Crown Sport PHEV has my attention for sure, I would leave Lexus for Toyota. After my RZ lease is done I most likely would lean Toyota if they offer the Crown Sport.
If is not comming to the USA this will be toyotas biggest mistake to date will outsell much of there cars ...maybe thats why they dont want to bring it in......
So confused with all of Toyota’s new models and drive trains. They can’t make enough of their current models why keep introducing new vehicles. The new Crown sedan is a glorified Avalon. Our dealers have a few on their lots and they aren’t selling. I’m guessing the Crown sedan will be short lived.
why not Honda can't be following up 😒😒😒even I don't want to buy Toyota any more, but still admire their hybrid and PHEV system....come on Honda,😒😒😒 like the prelude, make it AWD PHEV 😩😩😩
Prelude is a hybrid. Honda confirmed. They could even make it a hybrid manual because they already made three of them. First-gen Insight. CR-Z. Briefly the Civic Hybrid. A manual hybrid isn’t impossible. Honda can do it again with the new Prelude. Although I do hope it ends up being AWD…. Or release an Acura variant with AWD.
Only reason this is not coming to US or Europe now is failled corporate strategy on battery manufacturing. It would sell. Maybe traditional wagon in Europe . Longer than Rav4. Like 5m Mercedes e-classe.
A small mistake when you talked about the UX getting the full digits MID: the TX and the GX have it too.
Thanks!!!
I haven't driven either, so that's maybe why I was off?!
I think the Crown Sport would be the most popular of Crown line-up in the US. It seems like a replacement for the Venza, even the interior is layed out similar to the Venza.
As much as I love the Signia, if they brought the Crown Sport WITH the hybrid max powertrain, I'd be standing in line.
I'm on the fence about buying a Crown sedan or Signia, but I would get the Sport PHEV in a heart beat.
They need to bring this to the states.. If rumors are true they're getting rid of the Highlander, the Crown Signia can fill that spot and then this can replace the current Venza that's going away!
But i dont understand, the highlander name has such a history
@@TMM6900grand highlander has already been reported to cause a decrease in normal highlander sales.
If they don’t bring the Crown Sport to the US and Canada someone should be fired.

People downplay planner’s role, until they are burnt by their mistakes. That’s why I’ve been working with expert planners like CHRIS RYAN STEWART
Bring the Crown Sport to US, I would buy one.
I have no issue with Toyota's slow adoption of EVs, but gatekeeping PHEVs and limiting production is such a miss.
This needs to come to North America, that vehicle looks incredible!
Hope we get to see this in the US
Need it😮
It be nice to see upcoming FJ cruiser with some feel of the Honda Element

Have you listened in to the latest earnings call?
I will buy crown sport for sure
I would buy this generation’s crown sedan if it comes to the U.S., guess I am getting old. I think it looks better than the current LS.
PHEV gang😎🥶🥶
Toyota should definitely bring this the North America! As a PHEV too.
I don't know who is running Toyota Canada but, I've heard they are cutting back for the RAV4 hybrid coming to the Canadian market. :(
Sadly the crown sport isn’t coming. I think we already got the crown suv we were getting. 2 crown SUVs is pretty wild
The first Crown sedan can't be long for this market. There will be plenty of space for the Crown Sport alongside the Signia.

I would take previous gen Lexus RX350 with N/A 3,5 - best Toyota/Lexus v6. Pretty looking and reliable car.
IMHO range isn't the 𝒐𝒏𝒍𝒚 thing we should look at in a BEV
Huge L on Toyota. I would have bought a crown sport as soon as it touched US soil
Why did they release the sedan in the US first? It’s obviously the least popular body style in US. This will be wildly popular in US.
Kirk, the NX and RX are built in Canada...My NX came from CA
NX and rx phev are made in Japan iirc. TX phev made in Indiana
That's 745 miles Kirk, that's huge . Good rule I go by is 100 kilometers = 60 miles .
PLEASE I WILL BUY A SPORT CROWN RN
I'm not sure whether we're getting the Sport or Signia here in the GCC. I hope it's this one!
Toyota not releasing all their coolest cars is a continual problem. This thing is beautiful!
we need this in EU too!
Crown wagon with this tech
Sorry Kirk, not a Crown fan. Happy New Year 2024. May everyone look forward to better times ahead.
You lost me on your opening statement! “Not available in the U.S.”
People are praying it comes to the US for 2025, with a North American reveal sometime in 2024.

Have a merry Christmas dog on it!💜🐶🐶
I'm still hopiing for the Mini Cruiser. Might have to move to Japan to own one.
Crown Sport PHEV will be very expensive, and hard to get to boot.
The current Lexus UX looks like a luxury Toyota Corolla hatchback. I hope the new Lexus UX is based off the Toyota Corolla Cross and elongated. Would also be cool to see a Lexus vehicle inspired by the Toyota CHR.
If Crown Sport is not coming as a Toyota, maybe it can come as a rebadged Mazda? 😂 Wishful thinking, but it is Christmas and I really want this car.
Why does this crown lineup have such small lights ? Do they safe enough in the dark
2025 UX was just announced for the US.
any news about USA release?
What is the battery capacity of the Crown Sport PHEV, in kWh? 18.1 kWh? Level 3 DC Fast Charging?
There is DC fast charging but Chademo I think at 50kW. I don't have a spec sheet but i'm fairly certain it's the 18.1 kWh battery.
@@KirkKreifels OK, 18.1 kWh is small but better than nothing (i.e. better than a hybrid that cannot be plugged in).
They need to ditch the Venza, and bring the Crown Sport here. Just paid off my car and I’m gonna keep saving in hopes they bring it to the US. I’m giving it a year or two if not I’m going for the Insignia
Crown signia is replacing the venza
Venza is getting discounted for the Crown Signia, Toyota themselves confirmed.
DOH! Really want this one over here instead of that station wagon! Especially a PRIME version. Holding out hope that maybe they'll send it over as something.
Merry Christmas 🎄🙏😍
GIVE ME MY CROWN SPOT NOW!!!!😈
170 inch long station wagon > any 2 row
200 inch long workvan with 8 seats inside > any 3 row
I was so excited about the Crown sport to come to USA. That’s will be my new car but very disappointing. They send the wagon instead of the small SUV.
I was going to wait for the 2025 Camry and I ended up getting a 2024 ES 300h fsport
So stupid to not bring this to US
I think Toyota would never be able to keep up with demand for Crown Sport if it came to the US. Which means dealers would charge way over MSRP because of the demand.
Rav4 prime powertrain 🤔 slap a rav4 badge on it and call it a 6th gen
When is the toyota crown sport getting to the United States
WTF Toyota, if they released this in the US I would literally trade my care in for it tomorrow.
I would get the crown sport hybrid in 2024. If i had to wait to 2025 I think I would go for the most similar toyota or lexus...unless Nissan came out with something similar.
Want a sedan with the RAV4 powertrain!
The Crown Sport PHEV has my attention for sure, I would leave Lexus for Toyota. After my RZ lease is done I most likely would lean Toyota if they offer the Crown Sport.
Toyota makes some baffling decisions.
I'm waiting for the toyota crown sport to get to the USA so I can buy my first new car :,)
wait - coupe crossover as in.... wagon?
Lbx > tiny interior ux
For the title: …and you can’t have it. 😔
All the best Japanese cars, such as the Honda S660, you cannot buy in America.
The mainline sport SUV segment is non existent here, Toyota could hold out for a little while.
The biggest Caddy and Lincoln sedans are not sold in America. America is a fallen nation.
We need more wagons!!!
1200 kilometers is 745.65 miles.
The car looks like a c segment hatchback......
Do you think this is the next prime for North America. I'm betting the house that Toyota introduces the Grand Highlander Prime.
I hope to God they do.
PHEVs are coming en masse after 2025. GHL surely will see one. Next Prime is likely the new Rav4 Prime.
If is not comming to the USA this will be toyotas biggest mistake to date will outsell much of there cars ...maybe thats why they dont want to bring it in......
I this comes to USA i will trade up
Nice
They need to bring the crown sport to the states and get rid of that crossover sh1t, espicially when its not a hatchback 🤦🏽♂️
So confused with all of Toyota’s new models and drive trains. They can’t make enough of their current models why keep introducing new vehicles. The new Crown sedan is a glorified Avalon. Our dealers have a few on their lots and they aren’t selling. I’m guessing the Crown sedan will be short lived.
Hey kirk, 90km =55 miles
why not Honda can't be following up 😒😒😒even I don't want to buy Toyota any more, but still admire their hybrid and PHEV system....come on Honda,😒😒😒 like the prelude, make it AWD PHEV 😩😩😩
Honda seems to want to die
Prelude is a hybrid. Honda confirmed.
They could even make it a hybrid manual because they already made three of them.
First-gen Insight.
CR-Z.
Briefly the Civic Hybrid.
A manual hybrid isn’t impossible. Honda can do it again with the new Prelude.
Although I do hope it ends up being AWD…. Or release an Acura variant with AWD.
Only reason this is not coming to US or Europe now is failled corporate strategy on battery manufacturing. It would sell. Maybe traditional wagon in Europe . Longer than Rav4. Like 5m Mercedes e-classe.
why Toyota cars in Japan are so cheap ? in USA and Europe are much higher price. What is the reason?
Too many crossovers...boooo
Your math conversions... ooof. Needs a little work. LOL
90kms = just a few feet under 56 miles (not 40-45). That's a pretty significant dif, no?
My conversions are pretty accurate. Wltc testing is different than EPA
I need a crown sport
