A few days ago, the news about the fifteenth generation of crowns on the Internet to come to the domestic market, the car in some areas of the FAW Toyota dealers began to accept reservations, the deposit of 5,000 yuan, the price may be 35-45 million yuan, about half a year can pick up the car.
This blockbuster news is not out of thin air, not only there are screenshots of the circle of friends related to sales about customer bookings, but also a message about "FAW Toyota 2022 New Car Appreciation and Dealer Conference", the relevant pictures say "the new crown will be imported as a CBU model", CBU means the import of the whole vehicle, which confirms from the official point of view that the crown will return to the Chinese market.
The fifteenth-generation Crown was launched in 2018 and was revamped in mid-2020, and in order to cater to the market, it also launched two versions, the Sports version of the front of the car is very dynamic, with a honeycomb texture in the middle grid grid. The side shape is slender and elegant, with a certain sense of administration. The rear shape is simple and stylish, and the taillight style echoes the headlights. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the car are 4910/1800/1455mm, and the wheelbase is 2920mm.
The interior part, although the overall style is more conservative, but also can be seen that Toyota is trying to lean in the direction of technology, the 12.3-inch floating central control screen is in line with the current trend, with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto mobile phone interconnection function, the air conditioning control area below the use of physical buttons, the operation is more convenient.
In the power part, the new car provides three power combinations of 2.0T turbocharged four-cylinder engine, 2.5L naturally aspirated + motor hybrid system, 3.5L naturally aspirated + motor hybrid system, the maximum horsepower is 245 horses, 226 horses, 359 horses, and the transmission part is a Aisin 8AT transmission. As for which power will come to China, I personally guess that the probability of 2.5L oil-electric hybrid is greater.
GO Car Jun Comment: After the previous crown was discontinued, I once thought that the domestic market wanted to say goodbye to this model, but I did not expect to introduce it again, although it is a bit inexplicable, but it is not a bad thing for consumers to choose multiple choices.
