Everyone knows that April brings in spring showers, but at Peruzzi Toyota, April also brings in brand new cars! The latest model to arrive is the 2018 Toyota C-HR, the new compact crossover designed for the driving minds of driving enthusiasts. The vehicle’s youthful, vibrant design perfectly complements its zesty drive, forward-thinking efficiency scores, and top-tier technology. Tested at the world-famous Nürburgring track in Germany, the 2018 C-HR has adopted the same platform as the Toyota Prius. The MacPherson strut front and a double wishbone rear suspension provide a firm yet playful ride, while the 2.0L four-cylinder engine will enliven your drive up to 144hp and 139 lb-ft of torque. The new C-HR will be available in two trim levels: XLE and XLE Premium. Its powertrain upgrades are completed by the long-awaited CVTi-S system, a new generation of Continuously Variable Transmission that enhances the vehicle’s efficiency, while a new belt structure reduces interior noise. Among the C-HR’s other great features are a 7-inch audio display, dual-zone climate control, and voice recognition. In addition to the Toyota Safety Sense P (TSS-P) system, the new C-HR includes two all-new safety systems: Driver Distraction Secure Audio (DDSA) and Brake Hold, which will make driving safer than ever.

When it comes to hybrid vehicles, the Toyota Prius ranks as one of the most iconic. In addition to being a comfortable ride, it boasts an impressive miles per gallon rate, so you can save big on gas. Let’s take a closer look at the estimated MPGs of the latest Prius models and see their benefits. 2017 Toyota Prius The latest base model has an EPA estimated 54 mpg in the city and 50 on the highway. And with a 11.3-gallon capacity and a number of safety features (it’s an IIHS Top Safety Pick+), it can safely take you a long way with many refueling stops. 2017 Prius c This smaller version of the Prius has an EPA estimated fuel economy of 48 mpg city and 43 mpg highway. To make up for this dip in MPG, the Prius C is less expensive. For example, one of our 2016 Toyota Prius c’s has an MSRP of $21,494, while a 2017 Toyota Prius Four FWD is $30,350. 2017 Prius v Combining a station wagon with hybrid technology, the Prius V can get an estimated 43 mpg in the city and 39 mpg on the highway. In total, it has 67 cubic feet for cargo space, giving you the best of both larger vehicles and hybrids. 2017 Prius Prime The 2017 Toyota Prius Prime takes hybrid tech to a new level. With an EPA estimated fuel economy of 55 mpg for cities and 53 mpg for highways, the vehicle offers a whopping range of 640 miles.   Plus, it can drive for 25 miles on only an electric charge.

The 2018 Toyota Camry debuted earlier this month at the Detroit Auto Show. In a field of impressive vehicles, the latest Camry model was a standout and made several “best of show” lists. Despite being the best-selling car in the U.S. for 15 years, Toyota wasn’t content to coast along and embraced their wild side when creating it. Let’s take a closer look at this exciting new vehicle. Previous Camry models have been characterized as plain and even inoffensive. This time, engineers focused on style and high performance. Masato Katsumata, Chief Engineer behind the 2018 Camry, said “In order to create something that stirs people’s soul, we’ve laid out the concept of a new sedan that provides fun and excitement behind the wheel…In developing the next-generation Toyota Camry, we were able to start with a clean slate, which allowed us to create a true driver’s car.” The car has a sleek design, reducing height by about an inch. But seats are also lowered, so interior space remains the same. The exterior has also been redesigned. The hood is one and a half inches lower and has a wider space between tires to make it look like a sports vehicle. It’s still the Camry America has come to love, just with an emphasis on driving. Plus, although official estimates aren’t out yet, Car and Driver suspects that the hybrid model will be able to reach 50 mpg in cities! The 2018 Toyota Camry is expected to release late this summer. Come get yours later this year at Peruzzi Toyota! We also have a wide selection of the best-selling car in America’s current models. Visit Peruzzi Toyota today and become a part of the Camry family.
