The Crown Signia SUV is essentially a tall wagon with standard all-wheel drive, and it comes exclusively as a hybrid.
Less utilitarian and more luxurious than a Highlander but more practical than the Crown sedan, the Signia is powered by a 2.5-liter four-cylinder augmented with an electric drive for a combined output of 240 hp, matched to an electronic continuously variable transmission.
Fuel economy is excellent, at 37 mpg overall in our tests.
A 530-mile cruising range is an added bonus.
The car can propel itself on electric power alone at low urban speeds, but quick acceleration elicits pronounced engine noise.
The ride is comfortable and controlled, and handling is competent and secure.
The interior is tasteful, the front seats are very comfortable, and the rear seat is reasonably roomy.
The infotainment touchscreen is mostly easy to use, but the driver's instrument screen is a bit complicated.
If you like the Crown, but wish it could carry a bit more people and cargo, the Crown Signia SUV just may be the answer, splitting the difference between the Crown sedan and a Highlander Hybrid SUV.
There is a single powertrain: a 243-hp, 2.5-liter hybrid four-cylinder engine matched to continuously variable transmission.
All-wheel drive is standard.
The interior design mirrors the Crown, with a digital instrument panel and 12.3-inch infotainment screen.
