Pros & cons

Pros

  • Roomy, quiet, comfortable cabin with a large trunk and straightforward ergonomics.
  • Efficient powertrains including a frugal hybrid option; runs on regular fuel with real-world 30+ mpg, keeping running costs low.
  • Outstanding reliability and resale: RepairPal rates the Camry 4.0/5.0, 3rd of 24 midsize cars, with a low average annual repair cost around $388.
  • Toyota Safety Sense driver assists (automatic emergency braking, lane keeping, radar cruise) are standard across the lineup.

Cons

  • Firmer ride and more road noise on the sport-tuned SE and XSE trims.
  • Infotainment and interior tech feel dated next to newer rivals on the earlier cars.
  • The Direct Shift 8-speed automatic can shift abruptly or hesitate at low speed, mostly a software-calibration trait rather than hardware failure.
