The sixteenth-generation Toyota Crown is not just a single model but a lineup of four cars. For the time being, the United States is only getting what the automaker refers to as the Crossover, which is basically a lifted sedan à la Volvo S60 Cross Country. Over in Japan, there's also a true sedan as a direct replacement for the previous-gen car. These two are joined by a wagon (Crown Estate) and a significantly smaller crossover (Crown Sport).
At last weekend's Fuji 24 Hours endurance race, Toyota brought the Crown Sedan as a near-production prototype with a fuel cell powertrain. It’s scheduled to go on sale in the Land of the Rising Sun this fall together with a hybrid version. This is an imposingly large car, stretching at 5030 millimeters (198 inches) long, 1890 mm (74.4 in) wide, and 1470 mm (57.9 in) tall, while having a massive wheelbase of 3000 mm (118.1 in).
