Excellent family sedan – What I love most about this car is how great it is to drive. It's smooth, quiet, has plenty of power and handles well in city traffic or cruising at 110 on the highway. Other notable features are the comfortable seats , fuel economy and overall fantastic build quality. Show details

Thoroughly Decent Car – We purchased our Camry new in 2019. As of March 2022 it has travelled 45,000km. So far we have not had a single issue. It does what we expect without hassle. The fuel economy is excellent. Even on interstate trips it does around 5 litres per 100km at the speed limit with the A/C on. The hybrid system and the Atkinson cycle petrol engine combine… Read more

well. We drive it in economy mode all the time which is fine for normal use. Fuel consumption around town is similar. Unlike normal cars, heavy traffic doesn't trash the fuel economy. We use E10 petrol because it needs this or 95RON. The hybrid system has other advantages. When sitting in the car waiting for the school pickup, the air conditioning can be left running with the engine only starting now and then to charge the battery. The car is quite low. You have to keep an eye on ground clearance. The suspension as a result is taught. With the car loaded it's easy to push suspension to its comfort limits. In normal situations it's fine. The steering is nice. The seating could be better. The drivers seat in typical Japanese fashion lacks the adjustability I have in my Falcon. The for-aft movement is electric which is a pain. My wife is shorter than me. I have to stand there in the rain waiting for the seat to motor back before I can get in. A quick bar adjuster would be preferable. I'm 184cm tall. Thankfully the seat goes back far enough. The Sat Nav is unwanted and unnecessarily difficult to use. You can't turn it off or remove it from the main screen. Toyota's method of keeping tabs on the vehicle and how it's driven I'm guessing. Like most people, I navigate with my phone. My other car is a 2013 Falcon XR6 ECOLPI. Also a great car, but the list of gripes, faults and technical issues would be far longer than the Camry. I'm a mechanic, the attention to detail under the bonnet is impressive. Overall, the Camry is an excellent vehicle. I'd recommend it without hesitation.

2020 Hybrid Sport Camry – Bought this Camry hybrid from a local dealer. It was a demo with only 12k klm on the clock. Picked the Sport version over the base model as it has a few more little extras that I wanted. This is basically a get around town and occasional tourer for my wife and I. We are both retired. The car has heaps of room in the cabin and the boot is enormous.… Read more

Didn't particularly want a hybrid but at the time it was the only choice. Having now had the car for a couple of months I've become a convert. Over all this has been a great choice. My wife and I drove a lot of other cars to compare and found the Toyota the most comfortable and solid feeling of the lot. All the Camry's are fully imported from Japan so the build quality and reliability is great. Both my sons also have Camry's of various ilk and are also very happy with the cars. They are basically bullet proof. Cheap to run and cheap to service. The other good point is their resale value is also good. I think for the price Toyota could have included auto dimming rear view mirrors for this model. Other tan that no complaints.

excellence car I 've ever have before – In the past 35 years , we 'd been owned many cars , including used Ford , BMW , new Commodore, Honda and Mazda...vv, then I bought the Camry Hybrid Avv50R in 2016 and again in 2019 my wife she purchased the Camry Hybrid Axvh71R (the order was need 7 months waiting ) , so far we are very satisfied with these two cars. Show details

Fantastic car – After the death of Ford and Holden, I was looking for a new sedan. I settled on the Camry ascent sport hybrid. I went down to my nearest Toyota dealer for a test drive and fell in love instantly. It's comfortable, it's intuitive and for a medium to large sedan it handles itself well in small places. The fuel economy is outstanding, the sticker… Read more

says 4.2L/100km and even with some spirited driving I still avg about 5.1L/100km. The hybrid system is almost inaudible but still packs enough punch to get you around a road train or back on the highway quickly.

My family of 4 fit in with no problems, both teenagers have plenty of space to stretch out in the back even with both front seat all the way back.

Do yourself a favour and give it a go

I enjoy my car but it has its limitations – I use my car daily for volunteer cancer care hospital patient transportation. It is serviced as and when required. I found it limited on a country drive to the west of NSW on a short unsealed road. It is very low so not really suited to Australian conditions, considerable dust entered around the doors and through the battery internal cooling vent… Read more

over seats etc. Under wheel arch stone flaps worn away and plastic undershielding filled with stones and sills cracked, toyota and dealer disinterested. If you are driving in normal country conditions a Camry Hibrid is not the car for you!
