I've put 1500 miles on my Crown XLE, and I'm still loving it. I traded in my 5-year-old Hyundai Sonata Hybrid, which needed engine and transmission work thrice. Thought about EVs, but stuck with hybrids for the range and how reliable they are. Checked out Camry and Accord hybrids, but the Crown, with the discounts, ended up costing the same! Love the AWD, the 236 horsepower, and that it's a sedan. The styling is...interesting. Gas mileage is great – I'm getting 41.5 with how I drive, and even got 45 when I tried. Heated seats, comfy interior, smooth ride, and plenty of trunk space are all awesome. Wish it had memory seats, ventilated seats, a power trunk, and a 360 camera, but it's not a huge deal. Wind noise? I don't hear anything. Overall, I'm still super happy with the Crown. Anyone else at around this mileage? What do you think?
 
Ditching that problematic Sonata for the Crown especially with the discounts was a good call. The stylings a bit out there but you're digging the AWD power, and killer gas mileage which is what matters. 41.5 and 45 MPG? That's seriously good. you miss some features but the comfort and space make up for it. Plus no wind noise is a bonus. Sounds like you made a great choice. I'm interested to see how it does over time so keep us updated!

Yeah, missing those features like memory seats is a bit of a drag, but I guess it’s not the end of the world. But hey, how’s the handling when you’re flying down the highway at higher speeds?
