Driving a crown to go off-road is like an uncle in a suit going to the field to plow the field. The current Toyota Crown, even if it does not have the influence of the 90s of the 20th century, but the starting price of 369,000 yuan is still a high-end sedan comparable to a luxury brand, and it is a representative of the business and high-end market. Unexpectedly, with the diversified development of the automobile market, Toyota Crown has also ushered in a bold crossover attempt - Crown Crossover Landscape.
The Crown Crossover Landscape has changed a lot on the outside, although the silhouette is still the same as the current model, but the overall height is 1 inch, and when paired with all-terrain tires and 18-inch two-tone matte wheels, it not only provides excellent road adhesion, but also has a bit of a wild feeling of a hunting version of the sedan.
After matching 245/60 R18 all-terrain tires, it is believed that it will be better in off-road performance, able to cope with all kinds of complex road conditions, and the interesting thing is that the new car has exposed fixed rivets on the outer surround, even pure off-road vehicles such as the Tank 300 rarely show such a hard-core temperament. The towing hook added to the rear of the car means that if you drive this car out, you can additionally tow an RV, which is more suitable for large family users to go out camping.
Inside, the off-road version of the Crown sedan features a sleek black trim that creates a high-end and mysterious atmosphere, and the laser-engraved name in front of the passenger side highlights the car's unique identity. Although the dark interior is still covered with leather, the dark and textureless interior is quite rare in this class of cars, and this design style is obviously to ensure that the interior of the car is not easy to get dirty after outdoor sports, which is a more practical design.
In terms of powertrain, the Crown Crossover Landscape is expected to be equipped with a 2.4T turbocharged engine paired with a hybrid system, with a combined power of 255 kW and a peak torque of 551 Nm. Basically, it shares the same power as the all-new Prado, which will be produced in China, but the power figures are different. Although the data is not outstanding, fortunately, the crown itself provides a four-wheel drive version of the model, and it is a front and rear dual-motor four-wheel drive, although it cannot be as strong as a hard-core off-road vehicle, it is still no problem to deal with general outdoor non-paved roads.

At present, the latest Toyota Crown is sold in the form of imports in China, and the official price is 369,000-429,000, which is already comparable to the 56E luxury medium and large sedans. But this off-road version of the model in the mouth of many bloggers can be as low as about 32, aroused the interest of many car friends, in the car culture, this is a matter of course, because the price of 320,000 is the price on sale in Japan, simple conversion, don't look at this car currently seems to be introduced into the domestic hope is not much, even if it will be introduced into the country, there is a high probability that it will be priced according to the domestic models on sale, because there is no sales pressure, it will only be more expensive than the models on sale.
And this hunting style of crossover is not popular in China, many of the previous crossover sedans belong to this style, its own positioning is a car that can go bad, but also to ensure the control, but for domestic users the control is rarely bought, the passability is not enough, the poor vision is a hard injury.
