The world's largest automaker has branched out into computer chairs with a limited edition model as part of The Crown Collection. Specifically, Toyota Boshoku, the car maker’s group dedicated to seating, interior components, filtration systems and so on, has produced the highly adjustable Crown Seat Desk Chair (PDF link) (machine translation). It is based on one of Toyota's most comfortable in-car designs – the Toyota Crown front power seat. Amusingly, the seatbelt buckle remains, but here it houses a USB-C charging port. Now the bad news… the chair appears to be a Japan exclusive, with a limited run of 70 units, and a price tag equivalent to US$3,500.
If you’ve ever wished your computer throne was as comfy as your car, you aren’t alone. The new Crown Seat sits atop a pretty long lineage. We note that Nissan collaborated with Itoki (which is working with Toyota here) several years ago to make Nissan GT‑R and Nissan Cube seats available to computer users. In Germany this idea also has some history, with office chairs inspired or derived by Porsche, BMW, Mercedes, and Recaro.
Back to this extremely comfy-looking Crown Seat, and the specs are very enticing. Powered adjustability, heating, ventilation, built-in battery, and USB-C – it has it all.
