Toyota Crown News & Updates

Yes. It is one of the more attractive Japanese luxury sedans for Bangladesh buyers who prioritize comfort, prestige and highway refinement. The 2.5L hybrid is particularly appealing because it delivers much better fuel economy than the larger petrol engines while retaining strong performance.

The 2.5L hybrid uses a 2AR-FSE four-cylinder engine and electric motor system, with approximately 220 hp system output. The engine itself produces 178 PS and 221 Nm, while the hybrid motor provides substantial additional low-speed assistance. A 0–100 km/h time of around 7.2 seconds is commonly quoted, with a roughly 180 km/h electronically limited top speed.

A realistic Bangladesh expectation is around 10–12 km/L in Dhaka-style city driving, 15–17 km/L on highways and approximately 12–14 km/L combined. Traffic, air-conditioning use, tyre pressure, battery health and driving style can significantly change the result. Toyota's Japanese testing figures were substantially higher, so those should not be used as Bangladesh real-world mileage.

For Bangladesh, Royal Saloon G Hybrid is one of the strongest choices for buyers prioritizing luxury and comfort. Athlete S/G Hybrid is better for buyers who prefer a sportier exterior and sharper styling. Royal grades generally have a more formal executive character, while Athlete grades look and feel more aggressive. Higher G grades bring additional comfort and technology.

It uses a CVT transmission and the engine size is 2,500 cc.

Yes. The five-seat cabin, excellent rear-seat comfort, large boot, quiet hybrid drivetrain and high-quality suspension make it very good for family use. The main Bangladesh drawback is its relatively low ground clearance, so speed breakers and badly broken roads require more care.

Yes, the Toyota Crown 2.5 Hybrid is suitable for normal Bangladesh roads, with its sedan body, FWD drivetrain and hybrid power suited to everyday road use.

It is comfortable but not small. The 5.2-metre turning radius is reasonable for a large luxury sedan, but the Crown's 1,800 mm width and nearly 4.9-metre length can make tight Dhaka parking and narrow roads inconvenient. The hybrid system is especially useful in stop-and-go traffic because it can reduce petrol consumption during low-speed operation.

The Crown Hybrid is a petrol-electric hybrid, not a diesel or CNG vehicle. In Bangladesh, owners commonly refer to high-octane petrol simply as “octane.” The S210 2.5 hybrid was designed for regular unleaded petrol in Japan, but buyers should use clean, good-quality fuel and follow the specific engine's recommended fuel specification.
