The Crown station wagon skipped a model change in 1991 along with the Crown sedan, until it was finally remodeled as the Crown Estate in December 1999 after an interval of some 12 years. Its base platform was that of the 11th-generation Crown released in September that year. The third-row folding seats that came with some of the earlier models were dropped, leaving a seating capacity of five. The model variations included the standard Royal series and the sporty Athlete series.

All available engines were of the 6-cylinder DOHC type, including 3-liter 220 PS D-4, 2.5-liter 200 PS, and 2.5-liter 280 PS turbocharged units. Standard transmissions were 4- and 5-speed automatic, though a steer shiftmatic system (with buttons on the steering wheel to shift gears manually) was also available with high-end models. A front-engine, rear-wheel-drive was standard, except for the Athlete Four model that featured a full-time 4-wheel-drive configuration. Double wishbone and coil spring independent suspensions were adopted for the front and rear wheels, with the additional sports suspension setup for the Athlete series.

Production of the Crown Estate was discontinued in June 2007 due to the drop in demand for station wagons.

The meaning of "crown" is the same as in English. An "estate car" to the British is what Americans call a "station wagon."
