5 reasons to buy the 2018 Toyota Camry

1. Thrifty engine options

If you're looking for a sedan with fuel-sipping gas mileage, the 2018 Toyota Camry is a solid pick. The base 203-hp 2.5L four-cylinder engine with an eight-speed automatic transmission returns an EPA-estimated 29 mpg city and 41 mpg highway, helping you go farther between fill-ups.

 A more potent 301-hp 3.5L V6 engine is optional on XLE and XSE trims if you want more muscle under the hood. With this powerplant, you can expect an EPA-estimated 22 mpg city and 33 mpg highway.

2. Pleasing on-road dynamics

The 2018 Toyota Camry is an easy car to drive, whether cruising through the city or embracing the open road. The steering system is responsive and nicely weighted, and the sedan's suspension dampens rough ground. You'll reach passing speeds on the highway quickly regardless of engine choice, and the eight-speed automatic transmission delivers a pleasant driving experience. If you're craving sportier performance, the 2018 Toyota Camry SE has livelier dynamics, with a sport-tuned suspension, revised steering calibration, and paddle shifters.

3. Comfortable interior

Whether you like taking road trips or have to commute long distances, you'll be comfortable in the 2018 Toyota Camry. This five-passenger sedan features an airy cabin with supportive seating. Cloth upholstery and six-way manually adjustable front seats are standard, but you'll find leatherette trimming in the 2018 Toyota Camry SE, and leather upholstery in XLE and XSE trims. LE and higher trims also include an eight-way power-adjustable driver's seat with two-way power lumbar adjustment for more customization. With 15.1 cu-ft of cargo volume, you'll have room for luggage or sporting equipment in the trunk.

4. User-friendly tech

You don't have to climb the 2018 Toyota Camry's trim levels to enjoy great infotainment features. Base models come standard with Toyota's Entune interface, which has a seven-inch touchscreen display with Siri® Eyes Free, voice controls, and a rearview camera. Bluetooth® connectivity is also included, along with one USB port and a six-speaker sound system. If you want more bells and whistles, 2018 Camry XLE and XSE trims provide a larger eight-inch touchscreen display and an extra USB port. Wireless charging will keep your devices charged, and you'll enjoy premium sound from the nine-speaker JBL® sound system.

5. Driver aids galore

The 2018 Toyota Camry is packed with the latest driver aids to help you feel confident on your drive. All models include an advanced pre-collision system with pedestrian detection to keep you aware of obstacles in your path. Lane departure warning with steering assist and automatic high beams provide further support on busy highways and dark roads. In addition, adaptive cruise control can make stop-and-go traffic less stressful.
