An icon of luxury sedans, the Toyota Century has embodied stylish elegance and prestigious appointments since 1967. With a starting price of approximately 142.000 euros or 20 million yen, the Japan-exclusive car is a sophisticated blend of tradition and modern luxury. The current generation, on sale since 2017, represents the upper house of the Toyota family, favored by high officials and personalities in Japan. The presentation of the Century as an SUV in 2023 raises very high expectations for the 5,20 meter long giant with a 3,00 meter wheelbase and a curb weight of around 2.200 kilograms, whose price is around 158.771 Euros or 25 million yen lies. This means that it exceeds the price of the luxury sedan, which, according to our information, has been available so far 127.561 EUR or 20.080.000 yen.

When it comes to the drive, the Toyota Century is up to date. The 6 liter V3,5 engine, combined with a hybrid drive, allows both efficient driving styles and sporty dynamics. In contrast to the limo, which is traditionally used as a chauffeur-driven vehicle, the SUV version is designed more as a self-driving model. Inside, Century occupants will experience unparalleled levels of luxury and comfort, including wide-opening doors and numerous amenities tailored specifically to the needs of second-row passengers.
