Fuel economy, comfort, and performance are among some of the many factors that South Brunswick shoppers consider when looking for new cars. However, for those who own dogs, finding pet-friendly features is equally important. At Dayton Toyota, we're sharing information on all of the best design characteristics and amenities that local pet owners can find.

Ample Leg Room at the Back Seat

The Toyota 4Runner boasts impressive city/highway fuel economy, but it's also quite at home in off-road scenarios. Its smooth ride, powerful engine and selectable drive modes help it excel in a wide array of driving scenarios. Our Dayton Toyota selected the following capability features to showcase the Toyota 4Runner's power.

Selectable Terrain Modes

Multi-Terrain Select is the name of the Toyota 4Runner's system of selectable drive modes. All the rage these days, selectable drive modes tweak engine, transmission, brakes and suspension. Each mode corresponds to a type of terrain or

When you set your eyes on the Toyota Camry's exterior, you will not be able to ignore the metallic front grille or the dazzling chrome accents that enhance it. This grille, however, is far from the only exterior feature that gives the new Toyota Camry its finely machined appearance.

Bi-LED headlamps are installed on the front end of the standard Toyota Camry. South Brunswick Toyota Camry buyers who select the XSE model will be able to take advantage of their model's illuminating LED Daytime Running Lamps, which add the Camry's distinct and expressive look.

It goes without saying that Toyota's Avalon, its flagship full-size sedan in the United States, is high-tech, safe, very comfortable and extremely capable. Performance features are of particular interest to the racing enthusiasts on our Dayton Toyota team, so we selected our favorite such features for your info.

Cuts Through Any Winds

The Toyota Avalon doesn't fight through the winds. It cuts and flies, thanks to its impressive aerodynamics. It has a specially designed rear spoiler and rear diffuser as well as underbody panels to channel air smoothly over its body. 

If you’re seeking a service center for your vehicle, it only makes sense to select one that’s run by a competent team. One way to know that a shop is staffed by experienced, highly trained personnel is by looking for one that includes mechanics who have been certified through the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence.

Although ASE certification does not guarantee a superior level of workmanship every time, it does provide an indication that a technician is qualified to handle a wide range of repair and maintenance services. In order to receive ASE credentials,

It's easy to understand why the Toyota Avalon is the brand's flagship sedan. It's got classic luxury sedan looks, a spacious cabin, five-star safety and trend-forward tech features. It also performs like a star, achieving 30+ mpg fuel economy. Take a look.

From Zero to 60

You know the classic criteria for measuring fast cars? The Toyota Avalon knocks it out of the park, going from zero to 60 mph in a little under six seconds. How? A powerhouse engine and transmission, of course, but it's the all-wheel drive that lends a major advantage. 

What do you call an efficient, fast sports coupe with a bunch of cargo space? Answer: the Toyota 86. This coupe feels and rides like a race car, yet it's efficient and cargo-friendly. Here are some of the performance details.

Manual Shifters Meet Automatic Precision

The Toyota 86 is available with manual or automatic transmission. The automatic-equipped version includes paddle shifters. A mere pull of one of the levers changes gears like a manual, yet the Toyota 86 retains the smooth, lag-free precision of its automatic transmission architecture. 

At Dayton Toyota, we love how comfortable the all-new futuristic Toyota Sienna is. From its second-row, long-slide captains chairs in the rear with built in ottomans to make room for passengers or cargo in the third row, to hands-free sliding doors and lift gates for convenience, comfort is built into every inch of the new Sienna.

The new Sienna is even camp-ready, too, with a 1500 watt capable power outlet to power a slow cooker or inflate an inflatable mattress. The coolest comfort feature of the Toyota Sienna, however, has got to be Driver Easy Speak. Not to be confused…

If you are a buyer who revels in the enhanced towing capacity of well-equipped pickup trucks, the Toyota Tacoma is one to consider. This truck was made to perform, with two powerful engine options, a drive mode selector, and a towing-specific trailer package. Not only does it offer impressive performance, but it also encompasses inspiring towing abilities.

Part of what makes the Tacoma's performance so unique is the ability to drivers to control its reaction based on road conditions. In fact, a multi-terrain drive mode selector offers five options to
