Toyota’s limited edition $3,500 Crown gaming chair has heating, cooling, and a USB-C seatbelt buckle — Toyota Crown front car seat turned into gaming chair, enjoy in-car comforts while on your PC

The limited edition Toyota x Itoki Crown Seat.

The world's largest automaker has branched out into computer chairs with a limited edition model as part of The Crown Collection. Specifically, Toyota Boshoku, the car maker’s group dedicated to seating, interior components, filtration systems and so on, has produced the highly adjustable Crown Seat Desk Chair (PDF link) (machine translation). It is based on one of Toyota's most comfortable in-car designs – the Toyota Crown front power seat. Amusingly, the seatbelt buckle remains, but here it houses a USB-C charging port. Now the bad news… the chair appears to be a Japan exclusive, with a limited run of 70 units, and a price tag equivalent to US$3,500.
