context_page_description: The Toyota Comfort, released on December 19, 1995, was designed for use as a taxicab in Japan. A long-wheelbase version, called Toyota Crown Comfort is available in Japan, Hong Kong and Singapore.
  Its main competitors were the Nissan Crew and the Nissan Cedric Y31. In early 2017 it was announced that production of the Comfort would cease on May 25, 2017, after 22 years in production. It was replaced by the Toyota JPN Taxi which was launched at the 45th Tokyo Motor Show in October 2017.
context_section_description: The Crown Comfort is a popular taxicab in Japan and Hong Kong. While the vehicle carries the Crown name, it is actually based on the 1988-1995 Toyota Mark II (X80) which it replaced. Some versions can be licensed to carry five passengers (excluding the driver). The six-seat version uses column gearchange whereas the five-seat version can either have column or floor gearchange. The Japanese model has fender mirrors and an automatic (driver-activated) rear door (also standard in Hong Kong). The Comfort also is used as an instructional vehicle for people learning how to drive.
