I traded my 2020 Sonata Limited for a 2025 Camry XSE a month ago. The Camry is quieter, gives a smoother ride and handles better than my Sonata did. Very happy with the trade.

Oh nice! Check out the new Sonata tho. Big upgrade from the previous generation

Cross shopped the Accord, Camry and Sonata. Things that made a difference: Gas hood struts versus a hood prop. Power Trunk where the hinges are enclosed. 6-Speed automatic instead of a CVT. Dashboard and controls are more streamlined and less obtrusive than many new vehicles. Moving the gear selector to the steering wheel and cleaning up the busyness that you find on many center consoles is nice. The driver assistance technology. Lane Keep Assist is the best I have experienced so far. IMHO, the redesign is a big improvement over the old Sonata with its "catfish" front end styling. The Sonata also has a lower drag coefficient. As you stated, the ride does feel Mercedes-like. Reliability was a concern for me, but I am hoping that because this is a refresh rather than a redesign, that the drivetrain has been vetted and refined by now. Time will tell.

Thank you very much!

Living in an area that benefits from AWD, having it available as a hybrid on the Camry is a big plus. Otherwise these two are pretty comparable and I'd be interested in seeing how the actual real world MPG shakes out for both of them. Nice job!

@BrosFOURRSpeed

Yeah I like the AWD option! I was getting close to 45 MPG in the Hyundai all week. So I'd assume the Camry can match that

Always go with Toyota. Both are good looking cars though

Gotta will probably outlast the Sonata. But Hyundai really packs their cars with features!

Looking to close on a Sonata this week after a month plus of Camry shopping and I've got to tip my cap to Hyundai for making buying way streamlined than Toyota. Even the XSE/XLE Camrys still have around $4k in optional packages needed in order to get the panoramic monitor, parking sensors, etc. The regional distributors are ridiculous about the port options as well. If you want the Premium Plus in a specific color, you're going to be waiting for your dealer to get an allocation. The Hybrid Limited Sonata in comparison is much more transparently priced. Two trims each for gas and hybrid versions, no packages, the biggest difference is the AWD not being available on the Sonata Hybrid but it's so much cheaper compared to a maxed out Camry that you can just use some of those savings on a set of primo winter tires.

Cool cars to compare!

If the Sonata had an updated engine it would easily win this comparison. But since it doesn't, you would have to narrow it down to whether the reliability + drivability of the camry matters more, or the looks and tech of the Sonata.

Both 2025 Camry Hybrid and Sonata are crappy vehicles. Get a Mazda CX-5 or CX-50. The 11th Gen Honda Accord is a bad choice and has died in the last 2 years also it is worse than the 2025 Camry Hybrid.
