I recently got my Crown and I'm really impressed so far. The hybrid powertrain is super smooth. The ride is really smooth and quiet. The interior looks great with its matte finish and simple A/C controls. The instrument cluster is clear and easy to read. It's often the first thing people notice when they ride in my car. Overall, I'm very happy with the Crown. It's a great car.
 
That's awesome! Glad you're loving it!
I just picked up the Platinum last week. I was originally leaning toward the Limited, but after driving the Platinum, I was sold - love the extra power and the 6-speed tranny (way better than the CVT). And then they dropped the price by over 5K, so yeah, I couldn’t pass it up!
 
The tech is awesome, esp that bird’s-eye view camera, it’s definitely one of my favorite thing. But tbh the real game-changer for me is how insanely quiet the cabin is. It seriously makes the whole driving experience feel next level!
 
@Maybelline I'm curious about your experience with the interior space. I only had a short time to check it out at an auto show, and I was a little surprised by how cramped it felt. It kind of reminded me of the last Ford Taurus – big car on the outside, but not as roomy as you'd think.

How’s the fuel efficiency been for you so far? Does it match what you were expecting from the hybrid powertrain?
 
Honestly, the inside of this Crown doesn't feel as upscale as I'd expect for the price. For similar money, I could be in a Lexus ES with a much nicer cabin. It's a good car, but it feels a little unfinished for a flagship.

The hybrid max drivetrain is super smooth! The ride is really comfortable and quiet. I love the interior, the A/C controls are simple and easy to use, no menus needed. And that instrument cluster looks awesome!
