Canadian shoppers are rapidly and vigorously ditching sedans for crossovers, despite today’s traditional family sedan strutting the best stuff automakers have ever thrown into the segment. Set-it-and-forget-it driving. The latest-generation 2019 Toyota Camry embodies this. The styling is stronger than ever. This might be the first

Toyota has just priced the new Camry. The midsize sedan was all-new last year, but that doesn't mean there are no changes for this year. For a start, the base L trim is gone. And good news for Apple fans, CarPlay is now included and standard. There's a price cut on most trims as well. The Camry will continue to come in sport and luxury grades, d

Toyota has just announced that it is bringing all-wheel drive to two of its largest cars. Though you won't see them in time for this winter season, the Camry and Avalon are being fitted with power sent to the rear.

[Nissan’s] research shows that younger buyers are thinking sedan. Nissan – themselves builders o

NOTRE-DAME-DE-LA-MERCI, QC – “Forgive me,” I said, laughing, as I hauled myself up into the driver’s seat, “but this thing is just so stupid!” The Nissan rep riding shotgun nodded his head in agreement. “Most of the really fun things usually are.” Nissan hopes to capture the customer who might otherwise migrate to a crossover. I’m about

The most challenging reviews to write are the ones about cars that simply do exactly what’s expected of them. If they don’t exceed expectations or fall well short, it’s tough to get a good story rolling. Instantly user-friendly for just about any driver. This review is a particularly tricky one to write because the Optima pulls no pun

It’s not hard to spend upwards of $60,000 on a premium four-cylinder sedan as autoTRADER.ca’s recent comparison of compact luxury sedans showed. It’s that test, and in particular, the Mercedes-Benz C300, that had me thinking the 2019 Honda Accord Touring is such a stunning automotive value. In fact, the Accord is so good, it’s probably all t

American manufacturers may be abandoning the long-serving mid-size family sedan, but this 10th generation 2019 Honda Accord shows that four-door haulers with a trunk are far from irrelevant. The Accord pairs competent athleticism with supreme long-distance comfort; the Touring CVT trim blends a healthy dose of upscale amenities with an impressive

Technically, any car is a family car if your family fits in it, but the label typically applies to the mid-size sedans that were once common in suburban driveways. Now, those neighbourhoods are full of SUVs and crossovers that many of today’s parents prefer for their extra interior space, cargo capacity, available all-wheel drive traction, and the

If you’re considering an electric car or a hybrid, you may be wondering if it costs more or less to insure compared to a regular vehicle; and whether there are any insurance benefits or disadvantages to going green. We were curious too, so we asked some of Canada’s major private and public insurance agencies how they determine insurance rates for E

The American Automobile Association (AAA) recently conducted a test of automatic emergency braking systems from four different major manufacturers and found the systems performed inconsistently in the daytime and even worse in low-light conditions. In an interview with autoTRADER.ca, the Canadian Automobile Association (CAA), which is a sister org

As consumer attention continues to swing away from traditional sedans and in the direction of SUVs and crossovers, Toyota is making a push to ensure its Camry mid-size sedan keeps turning heads. Automotive News reports that at a presentation of pre-production models of the 2018 Camry, Toyota GM Jack Hollis said it's time for the manufacturer t

The Toyota Camry has established itself as a stalwart pillar of the brand’s quiet, conservative image. It sells. A lot. And it’s generally very reliable, well thought-out and does most things quite well. It’s not a car that will awaken your senses in any way, but it never set out to do that. Toyota has recently added the XSE trim. I always thought

The Camry is known as a perennial bastion of practicality and reliability, and traditionally has always cut the mustard as the smart, if not a bit drab, purchase. The latest generation of Camry has brought a fresh set of lines and a sense of newfound confidence. While the Camry still isn't something that will overly excite the senses, it has beco
