In this review, Doug DeMuro takes a closer look at the 2025 Toyota Crown Signia, a vehicle that Toyota claims is an SUV, but Doug argues looks more like a wagon. Positioned between the Rav4 and the Highlander, this new addition to Toyota's lineup comes with a hefty price tag starting at $45,000, making it more expensive than the Highlander it's supposed to fit between. Despite its higher cost, the Crown Signia offers a hybrid powertrain with 240 horsepower and impressive fuel efficiency at 38 mpg.
The exterior design of the Crown Signia is a mix of unconventional and premium, with unique features like a rearview mirror camera, automatic heated and cooled seats, and a heated windshield. Inside, the interior exudes luxury, almost reaching Lexus quality standards, with high-quality materials and minimal cheap plastic. Technological features include a user-friendly infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a configurable digital gauge cluster, and an Eco score display to track driving efficiency.
Moving to the back seat, the Crown Signia surprises with decent space, rear heated seats, climate vents, USB C ports, and integrated cup holders. Despite its sleek appearance and luxurious interior, the Crown Signia faces tough competition within Toyota's crowded SUV lineup, raising questions about its positioning in the market. Doug DeMuro's review sheds light on the quirks and features of the Toyota Crown Signia, offering valuable insights for potential buyers looking for a blend of style, comfort, and efficiency in their next vehicle.
