The various meanings of "Mark" are the same as in English (target, grade, fame). The "X" denotes something unknown or unspecified, implying a car for future generations.
The wheelbase was 2,850 mm, the same as that of the 12th-generation Crown and 70 mm longer than that of the ninth-generation Mark II. The height was 25 mm lower than that of the Mark II. Its short front overhang was characteristic of the front-engine, rear-wheel-drive (FR) configuration, giving unique body proportions. The combination headlamps featured high/low beam lamps and a fog lamp in a linear layout, giving a sporty and dynamic feel to the front view. The exhaust outlets were integrated with the rear bumper and became flush with the body -- a design approach that was never before attempted in a Toyota sedan.
The drivetrain configuration was either FR or full-time 4-wheel-drive (4WD). The available power units included two V6 direct injection gasoline engines: the 3-liter 188 kW (256 PS) 3GR-FSE and the 2.5-liter 158 kW (215 PS) 4GR-FSE. The transmission was either a newly developed 6-speed automatic (for FR model) or a 5-speed automatic with quasi-manual gear shift features (for 4WD model). Also available was the function to automatically direct the low-beam headlamps to the direction the vehicle was being steered. The split-and-fold rear seats provided direct access to the trunk room, and the front seatbacks could be laid flat to form a bed together with the rear seat cushions.
