Whether for city commutes or highway journeys, the Camry stands as a testament to Toyota's enduring promise of dependability.

The 2023 Camry doesn't deviate from Toyota's well-established formula of providing smooth and reliable power. 

It's available with the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine, generating around 203 horsepower. For those seeking more oomph, the 3.5-liter V6 is on offer, delivering a robust 301 horsepower. Both engines are paired with a slick-shifting 8-speed automatic transmission. 

The handling, while not sporty, offers a composed and confident drive, making both city commutes and highway cruises a pleasure.
