2021 Toyota Camry: Miles Per Gallon (MPG)Driving the 2021 Toyota Camry means you can travel to and from work as well as local spots, like the Rebecca Nurse Homestead and CoCo Key Water Park, without needing to stop to refuel.

New England is a great place to reside. From its scenic coast to its rich history, many argue it’s one of the best places to live. When the winter months roll around and the snow starts to fall, you’ll likely feel more confident behind the wheel knowing you have the necessary traction thanks to its available all-wheel drive (AWD) system.
Whether you’re driving in the snow, during a rainstorm, or taking the not-so-traveled path, this optional AWD system can send up to 50% of torque to the rear wheels in slippery conditions.
Choosing an AWD Camry does alter your fuel efficiency and performance specs slightly.
