problem is people bitch about high priced 100k truck they bought and how it depreciates so fast. yet they are the problem cause they bought it still. manufacturer are seeing that you cost vehicles are still selling well. so they are going to focus on high priced vehicles for maximum profits. people quit being dumb buying over priced new cars, price will come down, dealerships CANNOT have new vehicles not move on the lot. people stop buying expensive, cost effect will show it's face again.

I have a 2018 Camry XSE hybrid and I love it. Comfortable for long trips and very economical. Last summer my wife and I drove from Reno Nevada to Green Bay Wisconsin and back with lots of side trips along the way. Total distance was 6800 miles and we used 145 gallons of gas while driving slightly above the speed limits all the way. Climbed the Rockies with no sweat. Everything worked as it is supposed to and did not use one drop of oil. These are great cars.

Impressive fuel consumption. Even though full EV cost less for fuel but overall hybrid is the best choice at this point in time considering the problems with charging full EV. Traveling on a trip of 6800 miles, the last thing you want to think of is Wether there's a charging station next when the EV battery is about to be empty.

Just noticed you gave a thermal effeciency rating, not sure I've noticed that before, maybe because it was something that I didn't know I needed to nerd out on. Anyhoo...Toyota have made a press release in the last week or so that with their new generation motors, they've made significant gains in thermal effeciency ratings. Who knew that effeciency is something to glorioujsly nerd out on. Nice!

12:00 Naaahhh as a past sedan owner, sedans are essentially useless for carrying any large items that aren't suitcases because the opening is by default an awkward shape and taking stuff out is a pain. Hatches and wagons for the win. I once wanted to pick up a used armchair for my mother and despite being almost 500l in volume the trunk couldn't take it due to the shape of the opening. You know what could? A first gen Yaris hatch.
