Toyota expands in pantheon of vehicles in 2025 with the introduction of the Toyota Crown Signia crossover SUV.
The model joins the Crown sedan and a Toyota nameplate that has been around for almost 70 years and synonymous with quality and sophistication. Crown Signia is exclusively equipped with a hybrid powertrain and all-wheel drive.
Powered by a 2.5-liter, four-cylinder engine and two electric motors with EV, Eco, Normal, and Sport drive modes mated to an electronic continuous variable transmission, the combination delivers 240 horsepower and 36 miles per gallon fuel economy. It has a towing capacity rated at 2,700 pounds.
Crown Signia seats up to five adults with the second-row folding flat when not in use to provide six- and a half feet of cargo space. That was enough for a dump run after an early Spring cleaning of my garage, but not enough to dispense with a surplus door.
“The Toyota Crown Signia takes all of the exceptional attributes of the Toyota Crown name and shapes them into a functional, sophisticated package that customers will adore,” said TMNA Group Vice President, David Christ. “It showcases how we continue to elevate our designs, deliver premium quality, and take hybrid efficiency in versatile new directions.”
The Crown Signia’s performance vibe comes from a combination of its wide stance, and Toyota Hammerhead front end, which consists of a signature DRL and compact headlight unit and geometric lower grille.
Its premium interior is highlighted with “soft touch” materials, leather-trimmed seats and a panoramic glass roof. Both front and rear seats are heated, with the front also ventilated. Creature comforts include a JBL audio system with 11 speakers, subwoofer and amp, wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and smartphone charging, 12.3-inch multi-information display, and a digital rearview mirror.
In the rear, passengers enjoy the comfort and convenience of dedicated air vents, two cup holders, a rear bottle holder, seat back pockets, and two USB Type-C ports. Cargo space is abundant on Crown Signia with a rear deck that’s made for an active lifestyle, including a tonneau cover and aluminum scuff plate.
A fixed glass panoramic roof with retractable shade on the Limited grade provides a light, airy feel to the interior. Up front, the center console allows for easy connection to personal devices, with three USB-C ports. The cup holder is designed with everyday functionality in mind.
Crown Signia delivers the best of both worlds: sedan-like driving comfort and SUV versatility. Thanks to its crossover design, the 2025 Toyota Crown Signia offers ample room for five in a highly maneuverable package that rides on 21-inch dark gray metallic colored alloy wheels on the Limited.
The TNGA-K platform curbs vibration through the steering, floor, and body structure. Toyota engineers also spent countless hours studying and creating reductions in noise, vibration, and harshness for the Crown Signia. Noise minimizing materials include acoustic glass on front side windows, a dash silencer, and an engine cover made of acoustic absorbing materials.
Completing Signia’s impressive package is Toyota Safety Sense 3.0. This suite of safety and driver assistance technologies includes: Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection, Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist, Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, Lane Tracing Assist, Road Sign Assist, Automatic High Beams, and Proactive Driving Assist.
It also has additional features such as Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert and Safe Exit Assist. An advanced technology package is also available on the Limited grade and includes features like Panoramic View Monitor, Traffic Jam Assist, Front-Cross Traffic Alert, and Lane Change Assist.
