Japanese cars are considered a model of reliability. The only thing that stands out from this scheme is thin metal and low corrosion resistance of car bodies. From the list, it is worth highlighting models from the most eminent Japanese manufacturer - Toyota. Their cars resist the "rusty plague" better, although they still fall short of the level of Europeans.
How could it happen that the pedantic workaholics of the Japanese did not finish the bodies of their cars? It's all about fine calculation - sales outside the Land of the Rising Sun should not fall, which means that cars will fail. But for the domestic market, the Japanese are trying - "right-hand drive" is valued precisely for this, that it rusts many times slower than models intended for export.
Toyota Crown became such a car. This machine has been produced since 1955 and is still in its fourteenth generation. And now hold on, lovers of the island auto industry! After analyzing the sales of sedans, which are falling not only around the world, but also in Japan, marketers decided to release a new generation of Toyota Crown in the form of a crossover. This is a desecration of the almost 70-year history of the model! It's good that the option is being considered to keep the sedan and release it along with the crossover. And the author of the channel "The King Drive" will tell you the details in his video.
