The Crown was introduced in January 1955 for public transport use, with small engine sizes so that it would stay affordable under the annual road tax Japan began imposing in 1950. The more luxurious Crown Deluxe, equipped with a radio and heater, followed in December 1955. This was the first model year of the Toyota Crown (first generation, RS to S30), 1955 to 1961, the first generation covered for the Toyota Crown; the 1956 model year follows it. Model year pages for the Toyota Crown run from 1955 to 2026.
