Marketing is a hell of a thing. Wagons fell out of favor. So raise it up a few inches higher for worse diving Dynamics and say it's good for light off roading add body cladding which appears to be a little more rugged but most likely isn't as beautiful and if course you get worse fuel economy and then say it's better because... SUV and oh yeah.. Charge more for it too.. Cuz....yup.. SUV. I drive a wagon. I'll stop driving them when they stop making them.
Jamaican Me Crazy couldn’t agree more. It’ll be a sad day when they stop making the wagon. A utilitarian vehicle without all the unnecessary weight and marketing hype of the SUV. Octavia or Superb wagon for me thanks.
Jamaican Me Crazy Yeah that's the only Volvo car to date that I would seriously consider to buy, but you have to be rolling in 💵💵 to have one, and the other wagon I like and could actually afford ( the Subaru Levorg 2.0 GT) isn't sold in the States, and you can't import them.
All great family cars. Toyota is exceptional value , Skoda is unique and Mazda is sporty. But When did a Hyundai become better value at being the most expensive??? I guess that’s why I actually have never seen one.
Another great advertorial Drive.com.au! An ancient engine, horrible multimedia, taxi looks and only 3 warranty?! For space, comfort and power definitely the Sonata. For the most liveable and fun package the Skoda. Both have 5 year warranties and capped price servicing. Don’t call yourself a automotive journo if you have to run these sponsored segments. Shame on you.
Why is the Camry rated @ 235 Nm and the Mazda 6 @ 250 Nm when both engine makes 186 ft-lb of torque? The correct conversion should be 252 Nm for both cars.
Aroo arobelidze Mazda lost to the Camry in every review. The Camry had more features it's drives better and it's faster and more powerful. V6 Camry has 301hp on tap
Thanks for the comparison review. Toyota has made a big improvement to the Camry. The 4 cylinder is probably the one to avoid given the V6 and hybrid are so much better. Sounded like if the Sonata had AEB it would have taken the win! However, I’d definitely take the Skoda RS. I much prefer sportier suspension and the lift back design. If you want a good medium or large car the Skoda Superb or Volkswagen Passat are the benchmarks and would have won this comparison if they were reviewed.
Adaptive cruise but no AEB on the Sonata, surely they both use the same radar, and you would guesstimate that the i30 uses the same system and it can do both. Weird
Luke Hall the modeo isn't actually a sedan despite looking A LOT like one, when you open the boot, the back window goes up with it. Thus, fitting in as a large hatch.
Camry is sexy 💯 Love the design. Love the interior design and it's good to hear it's a sporty driving car and even better you can get it with 301hp which is awesome. It's give you everything style luxury handling power reliability comfort without taking away anything and you still get Toyota dependability. It's a win win for the Camry. Great car deserve to win.
I’m surprised with the improvements this gen of Camry made. I dont like toyota cars but credit where credit is due. Still dont like the design inside and out tho.
Chris Sorreda a lot of people are saying the Camry is fun to drive and I believe it. Toyota used to be known for making fun to drive Cars. I love the design of the Camry tho
Watch Doug DeMuro and maybe you might learn something! Your reviews/ reviewers are so boring, so politically correct and so so Vanilla. I can see why you only have 55k subscribers. You guys are like the dinosaurs of the car reviewing world dying a very slow death. There you go....
Fadi Jiha bro no one cares if you want to buy these cars and why are you even watching the video if you think they are not worth your money. These are economy cars for people who don't want to throw money at their cars and you can't compare a luxury sport sedan to an economy car
2018 Mazda 6 is not in the same league anymore especially with the signature trim! Its way above the league!
Amazing Toyota Camry
I think you should compare KIA Optima instead of SKODA Octavia VRS.
Yeah I have to say the Toyota would be my pick as well
Camrys made a big improvement, great all rounder. However i think i would go for the Skoda, Much more fun and still does everything really well
Great review thanks very informative, and thumbs up to boys Lucas and Lachie for putting it all together and your creative camera work. Well done team
Thanks!
Great review. I like the Skoda but those redesigned headlights are a war crime.
Still the best highway cruisers, mid to large sedan and wagons.
1969cmp Agree. Unless you need to go on gravel and dirt, or a high driving position, i’d go with wagons and sedans every time.
Mazda 6 all day everyday baby.
@6:42 Correction: Mazda 6 2018 GT, 310 ft lb @ 2,000 rpm (= 420.3 Nm). 2.5 L engine with Dynamic Pressure Turbo. Enjoy it.
Mazda!

Currently looking into a VF Commodore sportswagon.
I personally think wagons are badass
Jamaican Me Crazy What your views on the Volvo V90 R-Design T6 Awd? That's the wagon I'm currently feening over, but man is it expensive.
Dee T I really really really love it. It's sexy as hell

This mazda is actually 2016 - 2017 as the 2018 and 2019 doesn't has a fog light and it is face lifted
Just because they've branded the speakers as Bose doesn't mean they're good.
I prefer the Mazda 6.

Hi Art, Drive is editorially independent.
Always Mazda!

The Superb match better on this comparison than the octavia
You couldn't get a mondeo and passat??
They're testing the best 4 midsize cars.
Hence the lack of Mondeo
have another video with the 2018 Accord and 2018 Mazda6
Francis Gallozzi accord wins. period
mazda is the best one
Aroo arobelidze Mazda lost to the Camry in every review. The Camry had more features it's drives better and it's faster and more powerful. V6 Camry has 301hp on tap
Toyota4Life you are so noob
And this mazda is 2017 and Toyota 2018. 2018 mazda's have turbo charger engine, better intetier and better exterior
Toyota has the most ugly and non-asymmetrical salon.
Exterior is like Kinder's toy
Lucky for all of these Honda Australia is asleep...wait for the new Accord...
hondatrix Camry still looks better and has more power then accord
and with all that it's still not a better car..
How about the cabin noise? I want to know what happens, when you drive 110 km/h.
I have a 2018 Camry Sports. Almost no noise and the smoothest ride you will experience at 110kmh. Get one you won’t regret it.
Definitely Toyota Camry for me.
Which one wins servicing costs ? When talking bang for buck this should be a consideration .

The 4 Banger is the most powerful in its class
Volkswagen sucks. Mazda is the best car here. I never heard of Skoda since Im American .
Adaptive cruise but no AEB on the Sonata, surely they both use the same radar, and you would guesstimate that the i30 uses the same system and it can do both. Weird
Why isn't the Mondeo on here?
Luke Hall the modeo isn't actually a sedan despite looking A LOT like one, when you open the boot, the back window goes up with it. Thus, fitting in as a large hatch.
The Skoda does the same mate.
Mazda 6 is a terrible choice for anyone with kids. I have a family of four and a 2018 6 that u regret everyday
My 2018 Hyundai Sonata Limited 2.0T has AEB, why wouldn't that car?
Campry and Mazda 6
this camry 2.5L? maybe 3.5L🚙
Yuriy Yuriy they have a v6 that is bigger, but maybe it was more expensive for the test, or they wanted to stay closer to 2L
Rennie Ash It's the least expensive on the test. So why not the V6?
The v6 is more though. Maybe it went over budget, or they think most families won't buy it because it uses more fuel
Can anyone please tell me which type red is the Camry being reviewed?
Mazda.
mazda
You say “you know” a lot
The all new Camry looks amazing,and deserved to win
Morrie Mindel I agree. The new Camry looks damn good and I love that interior
A Mid sized comparo without the accord is one that makes little sense
Mazda for styling
Hyundai for space
Toyota for alrounder abilities
Skoda for sportiness
Bayley Davis Toyota for everything. It does everything now and it's fun to drive you lose nothing
Idk I preferred the Camry look to the others. Maybe some of the inside things not quite as good
The Skoda is quicker, uses less fuel, is more powerful and carries more luggage.
Bro where is the Honda Accord? 😒
the new honda accord hasn't been released in Australia yet
gde1989 I see, once it comes out, it's game over for the rest.
It's better than the rest of the competition, isn't it?
FSAPO Yeah the Mazda 6 is awesome!
lol... would put honda and mazda at the top...
6:24 wtf 22.5 L per 100 avg fuel economy in the mazda
Camry is sexy 💯
Love the design. Love the interior design and it's good to hear it's a sporty driving car and even better you can get it with 301hp which is awesome. It's give you everything style luxury handling power reliability comfort without taking away anything and you still get Toyota dependability. It's a win win for the Camry. Great car deserve to win.
The superb should of be instead of of octavia
Here you go :) ruclips.net/video/coiwQqllscQ/видео.html
Mazda....
I’m surprised with the improvements this gen of Camry made. I dont like toyota cars but credit where credit is due. Still dont like the design inside and out tho.
Chris Sorreda a lot of people are saying the Camry is fun to drive and I believe it. Toyota used to be known for making fun to drive Cars. I love the design of the Camry tho
Toyota4Life Thats alright, design is subjective. And if Toyota stops making appliances for a to b and start making good cars, i’ll like them!
This has been another paid presentation brought to you by Toyota. Haha
Scott Thompson youre just a bitter mazda fanboy
Allen TKO haha they’re almost as bad asToyota I prefer higher quality vehicles that hit 100kph in less that 10 seconds haha
Sonata much much much best car the ln camry
These guys are terrible reviewers
Hi Dan, anything we can do better on in particular?
Watch Doug DeMuro and maybe you might learn something! Your reviews/ reviewers are so boring, so politically correct and so so Vanilla. I can see why you only have 55k subscribers. You guys are like the dinosaurs of the car reviewing world dying a very slow death. There you go....
That was a great review. Your a terrible watcher
OCTAVIA? all day in the garage .
this guy must be paid from hyundai and kia .. ..for him non car is better except hundai or kia .. #dumpguy
I would never pay that for Hyundai Sonata specially in 2017 when I had 1.4 million recalled
Hyundai won.
45,000 for a Hyundai? no way in hell
Victor Alvarez For 45k you could get a Genesis G70, so get that instead.
Victor Alvarez Australian, not American.
Toyota
A lot of people in this world like nice looking piece of shitI’ll stick with the Toyota
Ford Fusion sport still looks better
*Mondeo
This video is Aussie
and all these mazda fanboys overhype thing. see? there are other better cars.
I can't put my money in this cars..if I want a car I just bought an Alfa Romeo Giulia 2000cc more powerful, stylish and powerful than the all
Fadi Jiha and spend more time and money in the shop? No thanks
Fadi Jiha bro no one cares if you want to buy these cars and why are you even watching the video if you think they are not worth your money. These are economy cars for people who don't want to throw money at their cars and you can't compare a luxury sport sedan to an economy car
