Toyota Crown is one of the most luxurious cars designed for the Japanese domestic market. The first copies of the eleventh generation (170th body) came off the assembly line in September 1999. Compared with its predecessor, the new Crown has added a few centimeters in width and length, has become a little higher, thereby increasing the interior space of the cabin. Changes also affected the layout of the engine compartment, the front overhang became shorter, although the wheelbase did not change. The fuel tank shifted to the center, which freed up additional space for the trunk. From a design point of view, the model largely retained the features of the previous generation, but received smoother body lines. The release of a hardtop that did not meet modern security requirements had to be abandoned.
On the other hand, Crown is now presented with different modifications: Royal and Athlete, each with its own set of trim levels. The 130th body was already equipped with the same name, but now it has been put forward for a separate level of equipment. If Crown Royal is a “classic of the genre”, then Athlete is the same Crown, but with a sporty character. Accordingly, there are other suspension settings, another (5-speed) automatic transmission, less ground clearance. Outward differences are also striking - in optics, bumpers, radiator grille, and pattern of alloy wheels. Both versions provide a very wide range of equipment both in the basic configuration and as additional options. The Athlete modification formed the basis for the creation of the Crown Estate station wagon (the previous Crown Wagon station wagon was hopelessly out of date in its 11th year in its 130th body). Four round headlights, a mesh radiator grill, a tuning suspension went to the new model from a sports modification, however, like the rest of the accessories: a leather steering wheel, special seats, xenon headlights. Toyota Crown in the 170th body was equipped with several types of engines. As the basic power unit for the Royal complete sets and Estate Athlete E-type station wagon, a two-liter 1G-FE with a power of 160 hp was used. Higher grade packages were equipped with 2.5- and 3.0-liter JZ engines. They were also installed on the Crown Athlete, with the base being a 2.5-liter 196 hp and the Athlete V versions equipped with a turbocharged 1JZ-GTE with a capacity of 280 liters. with. For the Royal Royal, the “mild hybrid” option was also proposed - a three-liter 2JZ-FSE combined with an electric motor. The power of such a power plant is 200 hp.
Toyota Crown suspension provides an exceptional level of comfort, but it lacks some stiffness, which is why on our roads, where the driver often requires active steering, the smoothness and grandeur of the Crown turns into a swath and poor handling. That is why the more "assembled" version of Athlete is in great demand. Some Crown configurations came in four-wheel drive versions: 4WD FullTime with an asymmetrical center differential and a hydromechanical lock-up clutch. Expensive configurations were equipped with air bags instead of springs.
NASVA twice conducted a crash test of this generation Toyota Crown - in 1999 and in 2001. The car demonstrated the integrity of the body in frontal impacts with full overlap and lateral displacement. In the latter case, the only comments were made for the deformation of the feet of the driver and passenger, despite the fact that in general the position of the mannequins after the collision was fully preserved. An excellent result was demonstrated with a side impact, while even the possibility of opening both doors was preserved. Note that the equipment of Toyota Crown includes front airbags, side airbags (optional), from active systems: TCS (traction control), BAS (auxiliary braking), VSC (traffic stabilization).
Ease of driving, the lack of a feeling of fatigue on the road, a comfortable driver's seat are, of course, the characteristic features of Toyota Crown. This generation, in essence, embodies a fusion of the best engineering ideas of the 90s of the last century and occupies an intermediate niche between more modern models that were put into operation after the Zero Crown concept car demonstration and outdated models of previous generations.
