Default Toyota Crown Hybrid.

I saw a Toyota Crown Hybrid in Mt Waverley, Vic.
Victorian Number Plate 1ZA ***, looked about the same length as a Toyota Camry with a narrow body.

Now that's an old name.

The badge on the boot and the narrow body is what drew my attention.

Same, but the JZS171W



Peak Toyota, 1JZGTE w/VVTI, 1990s design that looks like it was drawn on a napkin, with a crayon and 15cm ruler - perfection.

The later Crown Hybrids look mint, like the 2013 era ones, but they're fail and AIDS V6, JZS171 was the last with the turbo I6.







Looks mint but under the bonnet blows goats.

The Lexus LS600 is a 5L V8 hybrid. Looks similar to the Crown above so wouldn’t be surprised if it’s the same platform.
