2026 Toyota Camry Consumer Reviews

Long known as a sensible and practical midsize sedan, the Toyota Camry looks a little spiffier in 2025. I like that it is a hybrid only, looks nice, is comfortable, has lots of safety features and drives smoothly. It gets better than the expected gas mileage if I don't use the AC and don't go over the speed limit and am not in stop and go traffic. I got the Camry SE because it's a little sportier than the LE. I traded in my 2017 Camry SE, which I liked a lot, because I wanted a hybrid and wanted to beat the tariffs. The Camry isn't flashy. I would have preferred a Lexus, but didn't want to pay that much. I got a good deal on the Camry price, quite a bit under the MSRP, but should have gotten more on the trade of my relatively low mileage 2017 Camry. I would give each car a rating of 8 out of 10. My old Camry had slightly more trunk room and more room for rear seat passengers, but neither of those are important for me. The car is also too low to the ground and thus not easy to get into. I like saving money on gasoline, having a capable car, and one that can last for a long time and not require much maintenance. But it's not an exciting car by any means. It's a good family sedan, but my family is all grown and moved away. Maybe I should have gotten a sports car. Or a truck. I also have a 1998 Toyota Tacoma that I bought new and which has more than 457,000 miles on it. New Toyota trucks don't get good gas mileage and I found they weren't very comfortable and were difficult to climb into at my old age and with joint problems. I once wrote a poem about my old Tacoma probably not falling apart before I do. One of my daughters also has a 2025 Camry and likes it very much. I don't think you can go wrong with Toyota or Honda.

My Camry LE with the XP package has everything I need and value in a car. It is fast , smooth, quiet, comfortable, reliable , fuel efficient, roomy, and good looking . It is “loaded “ with options considering it’s only the base model Camry. It has been a great car and I enjoy driving it every chance I get!

First let me start off with saying I’m a little biased, this is our 6th Camry, we’ve had 4 cylinder versions, one V6, and now a hybrid. Very impressive vehicle, front seats (especially drivers seat is a bit high for my liking, even at the lowest seating position). But overall very seamless transition between gas and electric, quick enough for highway maneuvers, tech galore, and finally a very stylish Camry. Having owned a 2023 Accord Hybrid Touring I thought the Accord was the leader of vehicle dynamics, the Camry isn’t far behind. While neither will set your world on fire; they are fun, comfortable, roomy, practical, and inexpensive to operate. Back in the Toyota family, loving our Lexus ES300H and our Camry!

After 20 years owning a couple of 6 cylinder Camry XLEs, we were somewhat disappointed to learn that the 6 cylinders were not an option for the 2025 Camrys. Fortunately, the 4 cylinder hybrid AWD has a descent amount of get up an go and the 40+ mpg made the decision easy. Acceleration is smooth and quiet relative to the RAV4 which we were also considering. The cream colored cloth accent trim on the XLE dash and doors was a turnoff that we couldn't overlook. We expected that it would be a dirt magnet and pick up any sweat or lotions too easily. Fortunately, these accent trims come in leather in the XSE. We had to sacrifice the electronic seat position but got a sportier ride. Overall, we are very pleased with the XSE. This one was pre-owned for only a month so we got a good deal on it too!
