    Let's hope this signals Toyota's supply chain and production capability is improving. Around here GM is advertising in-stock inventory with discounts and gas prices are hitting $2.75.

    Would be a hoot to think Akio-san is thinking of the Crown family where the reporters are just thinking the Crown sedan. If Crown family, might be the Estate part of the Family. It sported a refueling door on the passenger side like the Primes and 450h+.

    I was excited that the Crown was coming to America…. Then they released this oddball. Sure the other is more conservative and why replace an Avalon with another conservative car but man this doesn’t look great to me. The Estate or maybe the Crossover might have better proportions.

    Have they announced any version besides the cross-sedan for North America?

    Toyota Crown Signia Name Of Next Crown Model | CarBuzz

    Trademark filed in Argentine for the name Crown Signia that they are not sure if it's going to be a completely new body style or the name for one of the previously shown versions of the Crown. I'd wait until they file one for the US market.
