But they don't have the MASSIVE battery and the service issues (like having to go to the dealer) that BEV's do.

Now the study didn't distinguish between brands and im sure some like toyota wouldn't have as many issues as say Hyundai or BMW, but be that as it may many hybrids seem to have found the sweet spot both from a performance/range/ reliability POV.

Another great review. Well done, Toyota, for persisting with and developing their hybrid system. Camry is not available in Europe. It was introduced a few years ago but only for a couple of years. I guess it was exciting enough against the German opposition. It would suit me being a smooth and comfortable ride.

The thing nobody ever mentions about 16" rims is you'll get better mpg, lower NVH, less tire wear, and better ride comfort. Large rims creates more problems than it solves. This is coming from someone who used to hop up Civics back in the day. Oh yeah, you also get worse acceleration

I had a 2013 Toyota Camry LE as a daily driver, and I loved it. It was great on gas, fun to drive, great on the freeway or in town driving. It's 16 inch tires are full of air and you'll notice a smother ride as compared to thin 19 or 20 inch tires which you'll feel every rut and pothole on the road and are more expensive to replace. The 16 inch tires are inexpensive to replace, and so are the light bulbs. This car is perfect for most people who go to and from work everyday, run errands, weekend trips this Camry is your little work hose. It's a nice looking car and I'd buy one if I didn't own a Toyota Tacoma right now. You can't beat it.

curious on what you rate higher on new Sonata hybrid or Camry hybrid?

Love Zack's face expressions when Andrea hits the power, Toyota finally investing into the car platform. Love that Red interior it's very rare for a Japanese vehicle. Should sell quite a few with that great fuel mileage.

Another home run from Toyota; this Camry looks great inside and out, and offering it only as a hybrid is a brilliant move since that's what everyone wants to buy these days. The fact that you can get the level of performance it delivers while sipping fuel is an extremely attractive compromise that only a well designed hybrid can provide. Throw in AWD and Toyota's reliability and you can see why this Camry can easily keep, even increase, its lead at the top of the sales charts.

Looks great! Do I have this right, that this car has the 5th gen hybrid system and a heads up display, but the Crown Signia uses the 4th gen and doesn't offer a heads up display?

So don't forget to thank him.

Hey guys. Good review like usual. Since you quote prices in USD and CND s it possible you can quote MPG in imperial gallon for Canadian drivers? Maybe a question for your Coffee Questions and Cars episode? For example 5.1 liters per 100 klm is 55.39 miles per imperial gallon...Yes/no? By the way I'm currently getting 5.2 liters per 100 klm's with my 2023 Venza in the city. That's not using eco mode and a lot of times using sport mode. I have learned a few tricks to get the best mileage out of my hybrid but consider myself an average driver, not slow or super aggressive. Previously owned a Rav4 Hybrid as well. Some tricks are how you use the climate control and even cruise control at say 80 KPH. I find using cruise at that speed it won't go into EV mode. At highway speeds it won't go into EV mode that's why usually a hybrid is better in the city. Interesting to see the Camry getting the same at highway speeds, very impressive. PS...I don't get near 5.2 in the winter but all vehicles loose a fair bit in the winter and even EV's loose a lot of range in the winter.😉

You're ON the INTERNET. So you can't do a simple imperial gallon conversion, given you're concerned about CANADA? Really? I googled it in 10 seconds to type it in and get a LOT of consistent hits.

Another great review! I said it on Instagram, that I've been waiting for this one. Thank you for always including alternatives to consider. For the LIFE OF ME, I cannot understand why the Honda Accord will not offer a heated steering wheel in the USA. I think that would be my top choice, but no heated steering wheel is a deal breaker! I'm still going between a smaller SUV or sedan. The Cadillac CT5 and XT4 are on my list as well. If you had a budget of 40k, new or lightly used what would be your choice, Cadillac CT5, XT4, Volvo S90, XC60, this Camry or some other option/options? I live in New England, need AWD, would like heated seats, ventilated seats, a heated steering roof and pano roof if possible, although the roof can be a regular sunroof.
