Toyota has introduced the Crown Estate, the latest addition to its esteemed Crown series, in Japan. This new model combines the sophistication of a wagon with the robustness of an SUV, offering a vehicle that caters to diverse lifestyles.
Design and Aesthetics
Exterior Design
The 2025 Toyota Crown Estate showcases a sleek cabin design, achieved through the GA-K platform. Sharp shoulder lines extend from the front to the rear, seamlessly connecting with the hood's character lines. Large 21-inch aluminum wheels enhance its dynamic stance. The front features a bumper-integrated grille matching the body color, with a mesh pattern that subtly transitions from top to bottom, adding to its refined appearance.

Inside, the Crown Estate adopts an island architecture layout, grouping functions like displays and controls centrally to minimize driver distraction. The horizontal arrangement of meter displays ensures minimal eye movement, promoting effortless long-distance driving. Vintage-style cloud patterns adorn the Saddle Tan and Grayish Blue trim areas, providing a high-quality, accentuated design.
