1990s crown is best.

Just saw this on autoblog.

Not sure if I like it. But performance hybrid is a nice drivetrain.

Ok now bring us the Century.

Is there a market for a lifted sedan? We will find out.

Are 80's Cressidas considered cool too?

GLE Coupe and X6 come to mind.

Absolutely

I could see myself buying the hatch or SUV models.

I think I heard they're AWD?

Subaru tried a while ago. Didn't work out.

Sedans should be illegal. Wagon only

Yes.

Is there a market for an expensive Toyota? How well did the Avalon sell?

Yes.

This is what I don't get. Avalon and ES basically the same prices, people will pick Lexus badge over Toyota badge.

Also why no Crown badge on this line if they are staying true to the lineage?

They are all AWD but the performance hybrid system would be interesting and I assume Crown is where you can get them in the Toyota line. I also don't think that's a hatch but a more of a Macan competitor I assume.

This with performance hybrid powertrain is the only exciting part of the Crown announcement. Alas, it's only a concept.

The Avalon is an old person's car. Not often you see anyone driving one that doesn't have a lot of grey hair. It sells poor for a Toyota but okay relative to smaller brands.

they need to start producing and selling this shit as opposed to press releases...
