ANALYSISHow safe is the 2025 Toyota Crown?
The 2025 Toyota Crown holds a Safety Index of 93/100, identical to the 2024 model year score of 93/100. Year-over-year stability at the Exceptional band signals no measurable deterioration in the safety profile, but it also means no improvement was recorded. The crash protection subscore of 66 out of 70 reflects the near-sweep of five-star ratings, with only the four-star rollover result preventing a perfect crash tally. The avoidance-tech subscore is a maximum 10 out of 10, consistent with forward collision warning, lane departure warning, and electronic stability control all being standard equipment on this trim. The defect record subscore of 16.5 out of 20 reflects the three open recall campaigns and is the one area where the 2025 year distinguishes itself from an otherwise clean crash profile. The single reported complaint is a low figure for a model of this vintage, though the Forward Collision Avoidance allegation is worth monitoring given that the same system earned a perfect avoidance-tech score in testing.
