The hybrid-only Avalon replacement will be getting a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) to join two other non-PHEV hybrid powertrains
replacing the now-defunct Avalon will be getting a plug-in hybrid to join two other non-PHEV hybrid powertrains. The news came from an interview with Toyota President and CEO Akio Toyoda himself during the automaker's dealer meeting in Las Vegas this week.
The Crown's entry-level option is much the same as the RAV4 Hybrid, with a 2.5-liter I-4 engine with dual electric motors powering the front wheels, along with a third motor independently spinning the rear axle. Final figures are forthcoming, but expect about 236 hp. Above that, and intended as the sportier option, is a similar trio of electric motors but working in concert with a more powerful turbocharged 2.4-liter I-4 gas engine.
It's now up to Toyota to sort out those details—and, who knows, maybe it will settle for a lower-output Crown Prime so long as it delivers some EV-only range—because for now, all we know for sure is that a Crown PHEV is happening.
