Car Profiles - Toyota Camry

TOYOTA CAMRY

With more power (thanks to a 2.5 engine) comes great presence, and the Camry never fails at it. What's not to love about it? Roomy cabin, zesty acceleration, and the presence it has. For those who love riding at the back, power recline seats comes standard.

The Good: Space inside is excellent
The Bad: Steering ain't the best

Price Range: P1,455,000-P2,082,000
