Toyota USA officially announced on June 6, 2024 that it will release the 2025 model of its new crossover SUV “Crown Signia (Japanese name: Crown Estate )” in the summer of 2024. Prices range from $43,590 to $47,990 (approximately 6.84 million yen to approximately 7.53 million yen).
The Crown Signia is the American model of the Crown Estate , which was recently announced in Japan . In the United States, it was given the more flashy name “Crown Signia” to avoid the “wagon” image. The Crown has been a Japanese-only vehicle for many years, but it is now planned to be sold in approximately 40 countries and regions around the world, including the United States and China. This will be the first release in the United States in 50 years.

About the exterior of the new Toyota Crown Signia in the United States
It inherits design elements common to the Crown family, including the distinctive ‘hammerhead’ front fascia, smooth contours and slender LED taillights. The short overhangs and low roofline give it a sportier look than typical SUVs. Although specific dimensions have not yet been announced, the prototype measures 4,930 mm in length and 1,880 mm in width, making it slightly smaller than the Highlander. It uses the TNGA-K platform.

About the interior of the new Toyota Crown Signia in the United States
The interior is similar to the Crown Crossover and features a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and 12.3-inch infotainment display. The system supports over-the-air (OTA) updates and provides connected services. Standard leather heated and ventilated front seats (three-way adjustable) provide exceptional comfort. There are 8-way power adjustable driver and passenger seats for a comfortable drive. The five-seater layout provides plenty of space for rear passengers.
Interior colors are available in ‘Saddle Tan’ or ‘Black’, both with bronze accents. There are also five exterior colors available, and 19-inch or 21-inch wheels can be selected depending on the grade.
To minimize interior noise, we also use acoustic glass in the driver and passenger side windshields. Insulation and body sealants are placed throughout the structure, including in the engine bay and interior, under the carpet, and above the headliner for additional soundproofing.
