To complement the car’s striking interior design, the interior mood lighting (fitted as standard) can configure to your preference.

2007 Toyota Camry 4.5million

The car has a good performance, and accommodating passenger cabin, and a long track record of reliability make the Toyota Camry a favorite of both the reviewer and the consumer, and the 2007 model is no exception.
Toyota Land Cruiser N30million
This spacious car was gotten after he signed his endorsement deal with Globacom Nigeria. The Toyota Prado is a large SUV-type wagon with a seven-seat cabin, proven reliability, and peerless service backup. For a big 4WD vehicle it is very comfortable as a day-to-day family car, but it is also built extra tough and is one of the best choices for long outback trips.
The 2.8-litre turbo-diesel is now the only engine option, with the more powerful, but thirstier, V6 petrol deleted from the range in November 2017 due to a lack of customer demand. It uses 7.9 litres/100km with the manual gearbox, and only marginally more with the automatic. In real-world driving expect to use about 10.5 litres/100km with either gearbox.
Toyota 4runner N12million
It fits the mould of the modern mid-size SUV in size (two rows of seats), horsepower (270), and cargo volume (above average for its class), but from behind the wheel, it’s nothing like the mainstream family hauliers. This body-on-frame off-roader features control feels that’s better suited to rock-crawling than mall-crawling. But if the gravel roads of your adventures lead to rocks, ruts, or mud, then the 4Runner is your winch line to a better life.
The 4Runner’s 4.0-litre V-6 engine and five-speed automatic transmission can team with rear-, four-, or all-wheel drive. Entry-level SR5 models are rear-wheel drive, while all other trims except the tip pity-top Limited model come with selectable, part-time four-wheel drive.
