Crown Chair Office Chair

Toyota Boshoku once launched an office chair transformed from the driver's seat of the Toyota Crown, priced at 495,000 yen, approximately 22,000 RMB. Here is a detailed introduction to this office chair:

Core Experience Retention: This office chair retains the core experience of the Crown seat, such as the seat ventilation system with built-in fans and heating functions. These features provide users with a comfortable office environment, especially meeting their needs for seat temperature regulation in different seasons and climatic conditions. The ECU controlling heating and ventilation is independently developed by Toyota Boshoku, ensuring system stability and reliability.

Component Modification and Optimization: To adapt to the office environment, components such as airbags that are not needed in an office setting have been removed. The position of the seatbelt buckle has been converted into a USB port, facilitating users in charging their electronic devices. The seat height adjustment and armrest structure have been jointly developed with Okamura, a Japanese office furniture giant. The backrest, lumbar support, and seat surface can be finely adjusted to meet the physical needs of different users, providing personalized support and comfort.

Rechargeable Battery Configuration: A rechargeable battery is installed at the lower rear of the seat, allowing the heater to operate at full power for 7.5 hours after one hour of charging. This design enables the office chair to use the heating function even when disconnected from the power source, increasing flexibility and convenience in use.

Sales and Reservation Information: This office chair is initially limited to 70 units. If the number of reservations exceeds the limit, a lottery will be held to determine purchasing eligibility, reflecting its scarcity and uniqueness. It is only sold at six Crown specialty stores across Japan, with reservations accepted from late April to the end of June and delivery scheduled for after September, providing clear timelines for interested buyers.
