Toyota Boshoku developed the CROWN SEAT Desk Chair model, which adapts the front seat of the Toyota Crown for desk use. The chair, which is produced to order, brings the comfort of a car seat to offices and living spaces and comes with features such as electric adjustment, heating, ventilation and USB-C charging. The price of the CROWN SEAT Desk Chair is approximately $ 3,500. The model, which is stated to be produced in only 70 units for Japan, is positioned as a much more expensive and limited product than a standard gaming chair.
Toyota Crown seat can now be used at the desk. CROWN SEAT Desk Chair, developed by Toyota Boshoku, takes its basis from the front seat used in the Toyota Crown model. The company transformed this seat into a special piece of furniture that can be used at the desk by placing it on the base of an office chair. The resulting product still clearly resembles a car seat in appearance. The design in the official catalog preserves the filling structure, side supports and seating comfort expected from a premium car seat.
With this product, Toyota Boshoku wants to bring the comfort offered by Crown to office and living spaces. Considering users who spend long hours at the desk, turning a car seat into a work chair stands out as an unusual but understandable idea. Toyota Boshoku worked together with the Japanese office furniture company ITOKI for the chair structure. Thanks to this collaboration, the Crown seat does not remain just a car seat, it comes with a mechanical infrastructure that can be used like a real work chair.
CROWN SEAT Desk Chair has an electric reclining feature. Seat adjustments can also be made electrically. In addition, lumbar support and front tilt control are also offered. These features carry Crown’s in-car comfort equipment to desk use. On the comfort side, heating and ventilation features also draw attention. Seat heating is especially used for cold mornings or cool office environments. On the ventilation side, there are built-in fans that help remove heat from the backrest and seat cushion.
This structure offers a more comfortable seating experience during long working days, gaming sessions or late-night desk use. One of the most striking details of the chair is located in the area where the seat belt buckle would normally be located. Toyota converted this area into a USB-C charging port. Thus, the user can charge his phone by connecting it directly to the chair. The electrical settings, heating and ventilation system in the CROWN SEAT Desk Chair is powered by a portable rechargeable battery.
In this way, the product acts like a motorized car seat that works in the form of an office chair. Basic comfort functions can be used without an electrical connection. On the price side, CROWN SEAT Desk Chair is at a very high level. With a price of approximately $3,500, it becomes a more expensive option than many gaming computers and standard gaming chairs. It is reported that the product will be offered in Japan with a production plan of only 70 units.
This limited production may make the chair a collectible desk chair that is difficult to access. Toyota Boshoku’s CROWN SEAT Desk Chair model stands out as an extraordinary example of automobile seat technology being brought to desk use. Features such as electric adjustments, heating, ventilation and USB-C charging turn this product into a luxury desk chair with automobile equipment rather than a classic office chair.
