The Hybrid Camry Might Be The BEST CAMRY! | 2018 Toyota Camry Hybrid

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

The new Camry Hybrid is very impressive. This 2018 Toyota Camry XLE Hybrid review covers the exterior, interior, and goes for a test drive. On its new TNGA platform, this hybrid Camry feels much better than the last generation Camry in every aspect. I came away very impressed, although I would liked to see memory/ventilated seats at this $37k price level. Due to the new hybrid system and battery placement, this 2018 Camry Hybrid has better trunk space and great weight distribution for excellent handling in this class. Let me know what you think!
HUGE thank you to Toyota for sending this to me to review!

    Thanks for watching! Would you consider the hybrid over the regular gas models? This hybrid provided a great balance of efficiency and driving dynamics and is a big improvement over last generation in many ways. Be sure to comment below and let me know what you think! 👍

    For me, I’m just a little more old fashion with powertrains...even though Toyota has a proven hybrid system, I would just prefer traditional gas. With that said, I still would not hesitate to buy a hybrid and keep it for 10+years, and expect it to last that, but I would probably have anxiety about the battery going bad after warranty lol

    I had a 2008 Camry Hybrid which I liked very much. However, due to age and milage I decided to replace it with a new 2020 model. Bought the new Camry Hybrid in November and is still thrilled about it's performance and comfort. Definately value for the money spent! ( The old 2008 Camry Hybrid is still in the family as I handed it over to my son).

Only pet peeve is that you can’t backup too fast with out the pre-collision system engaging and applying the brakes. Normal people won’t have an issue with that, I back up too fast but I have since fixed my driving

    That was a very good video. I bought this exact car 4 months ago and love it. I have averaged 48mpg. What amazes me is that on the interstate going 70mph, I have averaged 48.5. If you speed up past that, your mpg suffers. 74 mph will Average 45-46 mpg . This is the best car I have ever owned . Very nice interior, great ride and easy to drive on long trips . Safety sense is excellent. The only problem I have found is with the no cord charging pad for you phone. Your phone will slide on and off the charging spot so you think your charging your phone and your not. That’s a minor complaint because the car is super awesome!

    Small tip for things that flicker on camera like the HUD; if it has a brightness control, turn it up to max, that will usually stop the camera flicker. The flickering is something called PWM brightness control, which is a technique for giving something a perceived adjustable brightness range while still only having two brightness levels (on or off) in reality, by flickering it at high speed and adjusting the ratio of on-time to off-time, which changes the overall light output and the perceived brightness. Usually the maximum brightness setting will set it to a 100% duty cycle (100% on-time and 0% off-time), or in other words constant light output, which eliminates the camera flicker.

    I own a similar 2018 ZR spec , the ECO mode tires you out with the squishy resistance in the accelerator - promoting slower driving and frankly embarrassingly slow take-off. Where as Normal mode matches a more typical accelerator experience while not changing the MPG at all! It's all in how you drive it. I find the usage of the electric motor highly intelligent. Super planted and stiff car while having some impressive dampening.

    I like how he described in detail of each functions. And how it feels when mashed the pedal. How well it handles at turns and corners. And when needed to speed up to catch up with traffic s. He reviewers sucks at reviewing car's functions and what it means when you need the power to pass other car or get on the onram entering freeway. That Eco mode is supposed to work like he said. It gives you all the power you need like a normal mode when mashed the gas pedal and then go back to Eco mode when done. This generation model hybrid is weaker than the previous generation model because Toyota uses a smaller electric motor with a lot lower horse power and torque in saving weights and efficiency to get better gas mileage. Previous generation model feels a lot more power than it's stated. Probably Close to 300 instead of 200 cuz of the combined power engine and electric motor s. I have v6 Accord and '14 Camry hybrid. The Accord v6 is like 265 and can't keep up with the Camry hybrid. The best part is on a hill climb, the hybrid is gone. It gets up and go. Thanks instant torque.

A good no pressure way of testing one out. Possibly check Turo.com

    The SE does not give you a sport tuned suspension, all Camry's have the same suspension. With the SE, you get a different look. I drove both the XSE V6 and the XLE V6 to verify that and they were identical. Freaking love the V6 XSE.

    They did an awesome job with the new Camry! I haven't driven the Camry V6, but i've driven the new Avalon and the V6 definitely has some power. Drives and handles great. I just looked back and the Toyota press release website isn't loading the documents but here's what it says about XSE/SE models: "Independent MacPherson strut front suspension with stabilizer bar; multi-link rear suspension with stabilizer bar, sport-tuned shock absorbers and springs, and front strut tower bracing" Vs. L/LE/XLE models: "Independent MacPherson strut front suspension with stabilizer bar; multi-link rear suspension with stabilizer bar, and front strut tower bracing" basically just adding sport tuned shock absorbers/spings. That's interesting that they felt the same, but i totally believe it because it's all on the same platform and basically the same setup. Thanks for sharing and watching!

    If it’s the hybrid drive battery that’s under the seat...pretty sure that would have to be replaced or fixed (not sure how they work in those). If it’s the 12volt battery it can be jump started but I believe there are special spots under the hood instead of actually attaching to the battery in the trunk

    60 mph in the Camry hybrid is around 1500rpm too, the engine is really relaxed at 60 mph... and inside of the car you never hear the engine, only if you push full throttle, very nice car, I own a 2019 XLE and it’s really amazing if you compare the ride quality of this one with the competition!

    As long as the battery is working, Yes you can use it only on petrol, it doesn’t plug in or anything like that. However, if the battery fails or quits working later on, I believe you can’t operate the vehicle until that’s fixed or replaced. I’m not sure what the cost is though.

    I’m not sure what the battery replacement cost is...I’ve heard a big range of numbers too. I guess it depends on how much you drive and what type of driving you do...if it’s a lot of city urban driving with idle time and frequent braking, the hybrid does so much better than regular car, but highway mileage is negligible sometimes. Whatever calculations work best for you and your lifestyle! Thanks for watching!

    The 2018 Camry Hybrid's GPS is unreliable, requires you tether your phone by USB, uses an application that is like GPS units from 15 years ago and drops off for no apparent reason. Tried with various smart phones still not reliable. Also with this GPS arrangement your turn by turn instructions are not displayed in the HUD display as shown in the brochure for 2018 Camrys.
