While it bears the Toyota logo, the Crown’s overall quality and price are comparable to a Lexus. The Limited model produces 236 horsepower and achieves a combined 5.7 L/100 km, but for around $9,500 extra, the Crown Platinum boasts a 340-horsepower turbocharged engine that burns 7.8 L/100 km. The interior is generally luxurious.
