Toyota Motor has commenced sales of its all-new Crown Estate model—the fourth in the Crown series—in Japan. The powertrain lineup includes hybrid (HEV) and plug-in hybrid (PHEV) models to cater to a wide range of customer lifestyles.

ESTATE RS (2.5-liter Plug-in Hybrid Model) (Model with options shown)

The 2.5-liter high-efficiency hybrid system is designed to improve efficiency and performance. The output of the front motor is increased by approximately 50% compared to the Crossover and Sport models. This allows for stress-free acceleration even when carrying an increased load, offering a more relaxed driving experience.

2.5-liter Hybrid System

The 2.5-liter plug-in hybrid Estate is equipped with a high-output density drive motor, achieving a driving experience that combines pleasant acceleration with quietness. Like the Sport, the Estate comes with a high-density large-capacity lithium-ion battery.

The battery is placed under the floor to allow the vehicle to secure a BEV-mode driving range of 89 km*5 without compromising interior space, which enables operation on BEV-mode for most daily drives.

Toyota is targeting sales of 1,500 units per month in Japan.
