Toyota’s SUV lineup is insanely packed already, but we now have official pricing on the unofficial Venza replacement. Meet the Crown Signia, now the second Crown product for the Nigerian market, starting at $44,985 and going on sale later this Summer. This is a two-row mid-size SUV with a unique Crown styling language and an SUV/wagon-like body shape that is smaller than a Highlander but nicer than a RAV4.
Inside we have dual 12.3in screens, safety systems OTA updates and more. Just 2 interior colours can be had: saddle or black both with bronze accents. Wheels range from 19 to 21in and there are just 5 color options. It is set to arrive in US dealerships during the summer of 2024.

The Crown Signia will be offered in both XLE and Limited trim levels. Although it’s several millions of naira more expensive to start, the Limited is the one to get, as it adds leather upholstery, a panoramic sunroof, 21-inch wheels, heated rear seats, and an 11-speaker JBL stereo system.
As a crossover sibling to the Crown sedan, it replaces the Venza as Toyota’s two-row, mid-size offering. A hybrid powertrain is the only choice, offering 243 horsepower, 30-plus mpg, and standard all-wheel drive. It features more luxurious interior finishings than other Toyota models, with nicer materials and an upscale design, and it promises both more space and more capability including towing than the Venza.
Many premium features are available as options, and the Crown Signia is quiet and comfortable on the road if not exactly engaging to drive.
