Toyota plans to launch its fifth hybrid vehicle by the end of 2023 – and it will be a car never seen before in South Africa.
Toyota South Africa intends to introduce at least one more vehicle to South Africa before the end of 2023 –The ever-popular carmaker has treated South African motorists to several great releases – including a refreshed Fortuner, the GR Corolla with its high-performance capabilities, a manual variant of the GR Supra, the all-new Urban Cruiser, and a revamped entry-level Agya now known as the Vitz.
As of May 2023, Toyota continues as the most popular brand in South Africa, selling 11,395 vehicles. This is partly due to the continued popularity of its flagship bakkie – the Toyota Hilux – which sold 2,798 units. Toyota noted that the Crown would be powered by a 2.5-litre parallel-hybrid drivetrain producing 176kW at a claimed average fuel consumption of 4.4l/100km.
The internal combustion engine delivers 139kW, which adds to the electric units’ 89kW and 40kW for a total system output of around 175kW, which is sent to all four wheels.However, TopAuto suggested that the new model would include the following:Dual-zone climate control;Keyless entry and start;In terms of dimensions, the four-door Crown is quite spacious, measuring 4,930mm in length, 1,840mm in width, and 1,540mm in height. This makes it 135mm longer than the Fortuner but 15mm narrower.
