The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has awarded the 2023 Toyota Crown with its Top Safety Pick+ Award. The lifted mid-size sedan earned Good ratings in nearly every category, including the small overlap front crash evaluation, which you can watch in the video above, and the updated side test.<\/p>\n

The Crown earned a Good rating in every other crash metric. The institute awarded the car a Superior rating in day and night conditions for its front crash prevention system.<\/p>\n

IIHS\u2019s headlights test returned the model\u2019s only Acceptable rating, limited to the entry-level XLE trim. The uprated lighting system on the Limited and Premium grades earned the institute\u2019s Good rating. The XLE features the model\u2019s Bi-LED projected headlights, while the Limited and Premium versions have the Quad-LED setup.<\/p>\n

Toyota introduced the new Crown in July 2022 as a lifted mid-size sedan that arrived in the US for the 2023 model year. The sedan is available with two different powertrains. The standard setup is a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine with two electric motors and a continuously variable transmission. Toyota offers it in the XLE and Limited trims.<\/p>\n

The other option is the Hybrid Max powertrain in the Platinum. It still has two electric motors, but they work with a turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder to make 340 hp, and it ditches the eCVT for a six-speed automatic with paddle shifters.<\/p>\n

All-wheel drive is standard across the board, but the Hybrid Max powertrain has the upgraded E-Four Advanced system that can send up to 80 percent of the available power to the rear wheels. The Platinum trim is also available with the Adaptive Variable Suspension.<\/p>\n

The 2024 Crown starts at $41,145 (the price includes the $1,095 destination charge. Toyota recently expanded the Crown lineup with the Crown Sport crossover in Japan, which is taller, shorter, and wider than what the automaker offers in the US.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Crown is the latest Toyota to earn IIHS\u2019s coveted Top Safety Pick+ award. Other 2023 models with the designation include the Camry, Highlander, Prius, Sienna, and Tundra. The Corolla, Corolla Cross, RAV4, and Venza wear the Top Safety Pick badge.<\/p>\n
