Toyota has long maintained its reputation as a symbol of reliability and quality, but the Century SUV takes the brand into an entirely new realm of refinement. For the 2025 model, Toyota places privacy and comfort at the core of the experience with a cutting edge feature: triple stage dimming rear glass. This innovation allows passengers to disconnect from the outside world without sacrificing the soft glow of natural light.

Smart Dimming Technology: Elevated Privacy for Rear Passengers


One of the standout features of the 2025 Toyota Century is its newly introduced smart dimming system for the rear side and quarter windows. This innovative technology offers three levels of transparency: clear, semi transparent, and fully opaque. It works by layering a special film between two sheets of laminated glass, allowing passengers to seamlessly adjust their desired level of privacy using simple interior controls.


While the panoramic roof does not include this new technology, it still provides shaded comfort through a traditional electric sunshade. Designed specifically with rear seat occupants in mind, the dimming system enhances the chauffeur driven experience by creating a tranquil atmosphere that echoes the refined ambiance of traditional Japanese tatami rooms, delivering understated luxury with a cultural touch.

Exceptional Details Turn the Rear Cabin into a Mobile Suite


Toyota did not stop at smart glass innovation. The Century SUV’s rear cabin has been crafted with meticulous attention to luxury, transforming it into a mobile suite. The vehicle features wide opening rear doors, power retractable side steps, assist handles, antibacterial surfaces, foldable tables, soft ambient lighting, and even a dedicated holder for a shoehorn.


The rear seats are fully power adjustable, including the backrest and footrest, allowing them to recline into a completely flat position for maximum comfort during travel. Each passenger enjoys their own entertainment screen and individual control panel, while an 18 speaker premium audio system delivers a cinematic sound experience throughout the cabin.

Strong Hybrid Power and Extensive Customization Options


The 2025 Toyota Century SUV runs on a sophisticated plug in hybrid system that combines a 3.5 liter V6 engine with an electric motor, producing a total output of 406 horsepower. Power is delivered to all four wheels through the advanced E-Four AWD system, while the battery provides an electric only driving range of up to 69 kilometers.


Since its original debut in September 2023, the Century SUV has not received any exterior or interior design changes. It continues to exude a modern elegance that rivals luxury benchmarks like the Rolls Royce Cullinan. Measuring 5,205 mm in length, the Century commands presence on the road, and Toyota allows customers to personalize the vehicle to an exceptional degree, including full bespoke builds tailored to individual preferences.


The latest update, which includes the new smart dimming glass, has raised the starting price by 2 million yen, bringing the base cost to 27 million yen (183,300 USD - 687,469 SAR). Despite the steep price tag, availability remains highly restricted, with sales limited to select dealerships in Japan and mainly offered to existing Century sedan owners.


While Toyota is not the first automaker to use smart glass technology, introducing it in a vehicle as prestigious as the Century signals the brand’s intention to stand alongside names like Maybach, Mercedes, McLaren, and even Nissan, which recently added an electrochromic sunroof to its latest Leaf EV.
