Reviews SummaryThe Toyota Prius family is growing. The iconic hybrid has been so successful Toyota has seen fit to expand the Prius into a multi-vehicle sub-brand. It still lives under the Toyota name, but has expanded to several uniquely Prius–ey vehicles. The first variant was the Prius V, which is a larger vehicle that took on more of an MPV/wagon shape when it went on sale in the U.S. in October 2011. As you might have guessed the, “V” stands for “Versatility.” In March of 2012, the family grew again, but this time by going smaller. The Prius C is a subcompact hybrid, based on the same platform as the diminutive Toyota Yaris. But the Prius C features the namesake drivetrain and more attractive and fun packaging. The Prius C is a more affordable, more city-friendly means of staying within the Prius family. The “C” in the name stands for “City,” but it might as well be “Compelling.” So, is the Prius C, at $19,080, worth its premium over the mere $14,430 for a Yaris? It depends on where you’re standing. | |
Reviews SummaryYou’d think that Toyota would celebrate the Camry’s 40th anniversary in the United States market with a special edition commemorating the milestone. Maybe that’s still to come. But for now, you’ll need to settle for a 2023 Toyota Camry Nightshade Edition sporting spiffy bronze wheels and a beautiful new paint color called Reservoir Blue. The Nightshade Edition is offered with SE trim and your choice between a standard or a hybrid powertrain. There aren’t any other changes to the 2023 Camry, for now. | |
