On the 2012 Toyota Camry-Hybrid, the engine filter protects the hybridās engine intake from dust and debris, supporting power and fuel economy. The cabin filter traps pollen and particulates before air flows through the vents. In the Atlanta areaās pollen seasons, keeping the cabin filter fresh can noticeably improve interior air quality.
