Toyo ta C- H R


The C-HR is nimble and enjoyable to drive, but it also has sev-
eral notable deficiencies. Unlike other subcompact SUVs, the
C-HR doesn’t offer all-wheel drive. Visibility is horrendous, and
the C-HR is tortoise-slow, taking more than 11 seconds to go from
0 to 60 mph. It does get a very good 29 mpg overall. The continu-
ously variable transmission is mostly unobtrusive, but it amplifies
engine noise. The ride is firm and tightly controlled. Wind noise is
pronounced at highway speeds. Hidden rear door handles create
a coupelike look but make it difficult for kids to open the doors.
Although the rear seat is roomy, the small windows create a dark,
cavelike cabin. Forward collision warning and automatic emergency
braking are standard. Blind spot warning and rear cross traffic
warning are standard on all but the base trim.

Toyota Camry


The Camry has a stylish look compared with past versions, and
along with slightly more nimble handling. But it still is a com-
fortable, quiet car, and it stands as one of the best midsized sedans.
The lower stance makes access a bit more difficult, and the rear
seat is smaller than some competitors. The standard 2.5-liter four-
cylinder engine provides good power and gets an impressive 32 mpg
overall. A 3.5-liter V6 is also available. Both are paired to a new eight-
speed automatic transmission that isn’t supersmooth. A very frugal
hybrid LE gets 47 mpg overall without any sacrifice in trunk space.
The Entune infotainment system has Apple CarPlay compatibility.
Standard safety equipment includes forward collision warning and
automatic emergency braking, but blind spot warning is optional.
