Reviews SummaryThe 2017 model year marks the last one for the current generation of the Toyota Camry. It arrived in the summer of 2011 for the 2012 model year and was updated for 2014. And right after the New Year, at the 2017 North American International Auto Show, an all-new 2018 Camry was unveiled. So why are we reviewing a car that's about to be put out to pasture? For all its new looks, the 2018 Camry doesn’t promise a whole lot in the way of improvements (yet). And the current Camry has evolved through the years into a very competent sedan—one that gives the upscale Honda Accord a run for its money. If you're in the market for a family sedan this summer and looking at the long-lauded Accord and Camry, it really is a three-way decision between the Accord, the current Camry, and the soon-to-arrive 2018 Camry. But is it worth for you to wait for the ’18 or act now? Read on, as we’ll help guide you through the decision process. | |
Reviews SummaryAfter 50 years and nearly 50 million units sold, the Corolla is the best-selling car nameplate in the world. To mark a half-century of sales, Toyota reworked the Corolla’s front end and added standard Safety Sense P for auto high beams, lane-departure warning with intervention, and forward-collision warning with pedestrian detection and auto braking. But even with a newly standard reversing camera, upgraded upholstery, and a special 50th-Anniversary trim, the Corolla still has trouble in this very competitive segment. | |
