This is a midsize SUV that’s ready to change all of our expectations about what this segment can deliver, with a gorgeous interior, sleek design, and impeccable ride quality that’s a joy to drive.

With the first-ever Crown Signia, Toyota is taking the next step toward building a lineup that can’t be beaten.

If you’re searching for a New Rochelle Toyota dealer to give you a first look at what the Crown Signia is bringing to the road, then you should come to Westchester Toyota in Yonkers. We live and breathe the Toyota lineup, and we’re incredibly excited to see the all-new Crown Signia and everything it’s bringing to the road. Whether you already know this is going to be your next ride or you’re checking it out for the first time, we’re here to give you the lowdown and help you find the perfect ride, so let’s see what this gorgeous new SUV has to offer…

What Is the 2025 Toyota Crown Signia?

We should start with the basics since this is a model that we’ve never seen before. The Crown Signia is a stunning new midsize SUV joining the Toyota lineup, essentially taking the place of the previously available Venza as a two-row SUV for you to enjoy. Looking at the greater Toyota lineup, the Crown Signia should slot in nicely between the smaller RAV4 and the three-row Toyota Highlander. This creates a remarkable new option for getting around New Rochelle and enjoying your time off.

It’s always exciting to see Toyota reveal a new option, but with the Crown Signia, we really get to see them do what they do best. Here, we have a vehicle that brings together gorgeous style, sophisticated design, and stunning engineering to create a transformative driving experience. Just looking at the standard features, it’s clear that Toyota has held nothing back with this beauty and created a worthy new addition to the growing Crown lineup—but why do we care that this is a “Crown” model? Well…

What Does It Mean to Be a Crown Model?

The original Toyota Crown has been available since 1955 and is one of the models that established Toyota as a major automotive manufacturer. It was the first Japanese car to be released in America, hitting our market in 1958 and marking Toyota as a deliverer of quality and design. About 50 years ago, however, Toyota discontinued the Crown here in the US and focused on other models for our shores instead.

That all changed recently with the release of the Toyota Crown sedan for the 2023 model year, bringing a royal four-door back to America. We were excited to see the Crown finally come back, and its return has continued to thrill thanks to a richly appointed interior, quick acceleration, nimble handling, and much more. This initial excitement hasn’t had a chance to fade, yet Toyota is already adding to this lineup with a first-ever Crown Signia, setting the stage for a growing selection of innovative vehicles. So, what does the Crown Signia bring to the road that has us so excited? Let’s see…

Bold Performance and Engineering

As a Toyota dealership, of course, we nerd out over things like the return of the Crown nameplate to the US, but we know that’s not something that gets every driver fired up. What should get you fired up is a fantastic driving experience, which is exactly what the 2025 Toyota Crown Signia has to offer. Every model comes with a 2.5L four-cylinder engine that delivers 243 hp thanks to a pair of electric motors and excellent hybrid engineering.

This hybrid design is set to get fuel economy ratings of 36 MPG combined, based on Toyota’s testing and estimates, creating a driving experience that is incredibly rewarding. Perhaps best of all, however, is that every model features Toyota’s Electronic On-Demand All-Wheel Drive, with a dedicated rear motor that provides you with extra traction when you need it. This is perfect for driving around New Rochelle in the rain or when there’s snow and slush on the ground, keeping you in control even when the road is treacherous.

Gorgeous, Functional Cabin

From the outside, the Crown Signia is stunning, with a sleek design and strong curves that immediately have your eyes tracing its shape and form—not to mention available 21-inch wheels. And yet, the interior is arguably the star of the show, thanks to an incredible combination of soft-touch materials and sophisticated details. You’ll find two rows of spacious and comfortable seating inside this new Toyota, giving you and your passengers plenty of room to stretch out in.

Moderate bolsters on the seats cradle you and your front passenger comfortably, while available high-quality leather-trimmed seating delivers a gorgeous look and feel. Toyota provides standard eight-way power-adjustable front seats, both driver and passenger, with heated and ventilated front seats available that are perfect for New Rochelle winters and an available fixed glass panoramic roof for a remarkable experience every time you hit the road.

Innovative Tech in Every Model

One of our favorite things about the auto industry is that innovative tech keeps getting better. Displays for the gauges and infotainment system have become standard features, yet you’ll often find small screens that can be hard to read. Toyota doesn’t do that, as the 2025 Crown Signia comes with a 12.3-inch Multi-Information Display (MID) for the driver and a second 12.3-inch infotainment screen with the latest Toyota Audio Multimedia system.

This massive MID is highly customizable and offers preferences for how information is displayed, so you can easily keep an eye on it. The massive infotainment screen looks fantastic and supports Over-the-Air updates to keep your system on the cutting edge. A digital rearview mirror is available to provide you with a clear view behind your vehicle, while an available 11-speaker JBL Premium sound system delivers an incredible audio experience.

Exquisite Safety Technology

For decades, Toyota has made some of the safest vehicles on the road, and this remarkable tradition continues with the Crown Signia. Every model comes with Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 standard, which includes a wide range of driver assistance technology.

You’ll find a Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection on every model, along with a Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist and Lane Tracing Assist to help you stay in your lane. Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control is included, plus Road Sign Assist, Automatic High Beams, and more. Extra options like a Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert and a Panoramic View Monitor to give you a virtual look around your vehicle are also available to help get you home safely every day.

Ready to Be Treated Like Royalty in New Rochelle?

You can see why we’re so excited to get behind the wheel of the Crown Signia and experience everything it has to offer. This is just based on the early information Toyota has released; we haven’t even had the chance to fully explore everything it will deliver. Midsize SUVs are some of our favorite vehicles, delivering a great middle way between compact and full-size models, so we’re always happy to see something new to meet our needs.

The Toyota Crown was one of our favorites for a long time and we’ve missed it in recent years, so seeing it return and now be joined by a completely new vehicle is all we could’ve asked for. At this point, one thing is clear: Toyota is ready to provide you with a regal driving experience beyond anything else on the road.
