From The Experts

Things we like
|
Sleek looks Tech-laden interior Performance from the engine options |
Striking Design – The Honda Civic’s sleek coupe-like styling and luxury sedan elements make it a real head-turner. Modern & Feature-Rich Interior – While not as futuristic as its eighth-gen predecessor, the tenth-gen Civic offers a well-equipped and comfortable cabin. VTEC Power & Performance – Retaining the 1.8L engine, the Civic also gets an optional 1.5L turbocharged petrol unit, delivering power akin to a 2.4L engine.
|
The new Toyota Camry looks far superior and edgy over the model it has replaced, and in fact, is one of the most beautiful looking cars in its category. The flowing theme for the design makes the Toyota Camry very sporty from whichever angle you look at it. Complementing the bold and premium exterior design of the new Toyota Camry is the revamped cabin on the inside. The new dashboard design looks very unique, changing the overall character of the Toyota Camry altogether. Also, the new Camry is equipped with all the premium features which one expects from a full-sized luxury sedan. Given its large size translating into a very spacious cabin and premium fit and finish, the Toyota Camry feels extremely luxurious on the inside. The suspension setup too is set on a softer side, which gives the passengers on the inside a plush ride quality. |

Things we don't like
|
Plug-in hybrid variant is expensive Rear seat space could have been better |
Cramped Rear Cabin – Despite a spacious feel, rear legroom is decent at best, and headroom is limited due to the sloping roofline. CVT Dulls the Drive – The 1.8L engine delivers good power, but the CVT’s rubber-band effect reduces driving excitement. Paddle Shifters Help – While not a complete fix, paddle shifters add some engagement to the driving experience. |
The Toyota Camry sold in Malaysia misses out on the very popular hybrid variant, which has made the Camry a success story worldwide. The 2.5-litre petrol engine does feel smooth and refined, however, it does not return a fuel efficiency as commendable as that of the hybrid variant. While the Toyota Camry indeed looks sporty, the power delivery, as well as steering feedback, are not as spot-on as one would like. This car focuses more on back seat comfort over driving appeal, which might not be liked by many driving enthusiasts. |
