There is good reason the Camry has been so popular. I have a straight 4 cylinder from the last generation and get over 40 on the highway routinely. I rented a 2020 straight 4, non-hybrids and averaged 52 on the highway. Incredible cars.
Kyle, you are correct. I purchased new, a 2020 Camry Hybrid and have averaged 52.7 MPG- U.S. total in driving over 22,000 miles since we bought it. I have driven on 3 separate road trips of more than 250 miles each, driving between 65 and 75 miles per hour and gotten over 60 MPG., the best was 63.1 MPG. Someone mentioned in a statement that Camry Hybrid Owner's take up to much time in the Left lane holding up traffic trying to get great gas mileage, some might, but that is total B.S. as the will get up over 100 MPH rather easily and cruise over 90 all day long.

We had a 2019 with 110k miles come through my work and it still looked / drove like new. This generation of Camry is great. The only thing I don’t like is how soft the front bumper is. They pick up rock chips really easily and look awful after 20-30k miles.

@@jonathanrabbitt I drive a lot of new cars and they all have creaks and rattles. Some worse than others. Toyota is below average. And the new Camry is bad too. I don't know how old that taxi was but I assure you it did creak and rattle.
"Man, what a perfect compromise of technology and fuel economy for the price", I thought to myself with a smile as I purposefully jerked the wheel to the right, crashing through the guardrails and careening off the side of the mountain to my blissful end
Took a long time to say "It's a Camry, better than most, but just a Camry". As a previous owner of this generations Camry Hybrid I enjoyed it for being excellent at everything it had to be and nothing more. Would be great to get a Camry Prime with strong rear axel electric motors pushing 250hp+ and sub 5 second 0-60. That would be exciting for Toyota
1. I much prefer the integrated screen in the dashboard as opposed to the stick up version. So the dashboard of '18,'19 and '20 looked better to me as I expect to see a map and not much else. 2. When the front door swings open, you have to have long NBA arms to reach the handle to close. 3. The shape of the front doors at the bottom can stab you in your calf muscle if you are not careful. 4. It may not be quick but the base LE fuel economy is outstanding and the 8 speed transmission is a good match and AWD if you get snow four or more months of the year. It is as mainstream as the LTD or the BelAir of the 1970's, only much better in many ways.
The hybrid powertrain is a marvel of engineering also there are a ton of excellent safety features. The car is extremely good value for the money especially in Australia. They slug us with luxury car taxes here...
I remember the good old days when people bought cars for transport that were affordable, comfortable, reliable, and fuel efficient. Now every time I see a car review they complain about the infotainment system and screens not big enough and needing more backup camera angles. #ridiculous
The main problem is those reviews lead to carmakers cutting actual quality to get bigger screens and soft materials in at the same price point. A lot of interior quality you can't see, like where felt is used to prevent rattles or what material is used to deaden the sheet metal and influencers have forced automakers to basically stop development there entirely.
I want the big screen for CarPlay, surround view camera for parking, connected routing that routes me around traffic/accidents, and radar cruise control with steering assist for those long highway drives. I want a phone app that doesn't just start the car and lock the doors. I also want climate controls, defrost, heated steering wheel, and seat heating/ventilation controls. And that's why I chose Hyundai over Toyota last year. The Sonata SEL includes all of the above except the surround view camera for $25,800. You can't even get a push button start on a feature-stripped Camry unless you spend $1,500 more for the base hybrid or $4,200 more for the non-hybrid XLE trim. And unlike Toyota's 3yr/36k warranty, Hyundai includes a 10yr/100k drivetrain warranty. What you're looking for exists. It just isn't made by Toyota.
@@IRSmurf nice. Sounds like you made a good choice. I personally went with a Mazda 6 because the driving dynamics were that much better. The screen is smaller but it shows what I need to see. It was an easy trade off because how the car drives was higher on my list than infotainment.
Had to stop and freeze frame it but good to know you also like Make You Feel by Alina Baraz and Galimatias…. That album from years ago is amazing and Galimatias’ recent (long awaited) solo album is excellent! Love the work you do and keep doing your own thing!
Almost all of the Corolla Apex models were cvt. I would expect Toyota is happy to let VW and Honda fight over the American customer who wants a stick shift compact-ish family car.
Purchased a 2008 TCH new. It's since been passed down through three kids and now shows a tick under 190,000 miles. Still on the original battery. Other than routine maintenance, the only thing that it has needed was a fix for leaking inverter coolant. These things may not be exciting, but they are almost indestructible. I can (and will) purchase another Toyota hybrid in a heart beat.
So happy to see you about to past 500k subs. I subbed around 250k. I followed you becuase your quality of videos. 500k is well deserved. Congratulations 👏👏
Only the LE hybrid comes with the lithium ion, the rest of the hybrid trims come with nickel metal hydride. I used to build this generation when I worked at the plant in Kentucky.
@Chirag Mehta Lithion ion ususally perform better and are more environmentally better, but nickel metal hydride are easier to manufacture and toyota says it performs better in different weather conditions
I just sold my Kia Niro to my son. That was a great car. 50 mpg all day. Drove it 80k and not a single problem. The Camry hybrid is a great car for the money. Once you're in the 50 mpg club it's very hard to leave.
@@janoycresnova9156 you'll be surprised, I know a lot of people who are spoilt and as they're FIRST car, were getting modern mercedes'. They are the most loveliest people you'll ever meet wink wink.
This and the Ford Maverick are the first hybrids I'd actually plunk my hard earned cash for. Feel like they've really sorted out hybrids making them not only not miserable to drive but much better battery technology. Not much more money upfront and really great economy in the real world.
I'll never forget the day I totaled my Lancer of 6 years and didn't know what I wanted until I truly stumbled upon your first video of the v6 camry.. completely sold me ever since then. We truly appreciate your unbiased opinions in your car videos
Love your videos geese. It's always a stylish presentation but when you play with the console, put your phone in, put the backseat down, it's always so brash and rough. I think it's hilarious each time when the whole video is so well put together. Thanks for the early Monday laughs!
My 16 years old son is about to become the family chofeur 30+K for this is a bargain. This will definitely be on the final list when he graduates from his current 2008 Honda accord.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate the intro music in this video? It's beautiful. I don't think people know that Savagegeese makes all of his own intro music, unlike all of the other soy-drinking, shaky-cam, low production, weird screaming thumbnail, so called car reviewing wannabe RUclips channels.
Perspective: You can get a midrange camry for the price of a 1.5t spec civic. Just food for thought. Would you rather have a 1.5t CVT or a 2.5L 8 Speed. Also - Toyota CVT's don't use belts. Just another fact.
I drive a 2021 Corolla LE CVT. The launch is dangerously bad if you gotta merge into traffic from a stop. But once you're moving I have no complaints. It's a very smooth ride, and very fuel efficient. And the giddy up is more than fine for a 1.8L. Toyota's CVTs also aren't really known for having problems like other manufacturers'. Overall, I'm really happy with how the transmission performs. Coming from someone whose passed 2 cars were manual. Definitely half as fun to drive as those though haha.
Awesome video/review. Can you review a 2022 Toyota Camry XSE AWD? Curious if the driving experience is different from the Camry FWD vehicles. Loved your camry V6, Hybrid, and TRD reviews!
I’ve said it before and say it again: hybrids save you so much money in the long haul. Most people don’t really think about the long term costs that regular ICE cars require. If you look at the operating hour cost (like aviation does), internal combustion engines are SUPER expensive. For example, 100k miles at 20 mpg at current gas prices (100000/20) = 5000 gallons of fuel at $4.5 per gallon-> $22,500.00 just on gas over 100k miles (maybe 10 years). That’s almost the price of the car. At the same gas price, a hybrid getting 48 mpg would cost you $9,375.00. Companies need to figure out how to make hybrids a little more fun to drive. And that CVT/eCVT sound is not appealing to most car enthusiasts like me. I would buy this car though.
your calculation is almost correct but you didn't mention the fact that hybrid cars will cost you around 5k more than a non-hybrid one in the first place and you have to change the battery almost every 8 years Which it won't be cheap,so even on a long term use there isn't a significant difference between the two
@Gottes God "Have to be mindful of raining season"? What are you even talking about. I've forded a Prius through a foot and a half of water by making sure the ICE didn't kick on, and I regularly drive my Fusion Hybrid in torrential rain and deep snow. There are also far more reliability issues that come with regular ICE cars. The only potential long-term concern would be the HV battery, but even then they're no more likely to fail than an automatic transmission. By the time it might fail; the amount of money you've saved in gas, oil, brakes, belts, etc far exceeds the cost of replacing the HV battery. The rain thing really has me with a loss for words. That's the first time I've ever heard someone say that, and I have no clue what you mean. Do you think they'll electrocute you if you drive it in rain?
@ttabibi1829 To be fair, the hybrid batteries tend to last longer at between 10-15 years with 12-15 years being more common. There's also a medical courier that has 440,000 miles on his 2020 Rav4 Hybrid and he's still going strong.
@@ttabibi1829In Canada, hybrid models costs $2200 more than ICE equivalent trims. Hybrid battery warranty is 12 years. In the last Toyota AGM, they made a point on lowering battery replacement costs. Note this is strictly for the battery and not labor charges tacked on by the dealer.
Definitely this is the hybrid with very few compromises, looks like a regular car, is going to make you save a bunch of money at the pump, but most importantly, has that Toyota reliability. Plus is made in the USA? I'm sold!
I have a 2020 Camry hybrid and I live in the Davis dam area where manufacturer torture test vehicles, so im normally driving up steep inclines and get 45mpg the engine rarely rev up unless I'm passing. It far exceeds my expectations
@@lightman489 Agreed, also have the 2020 Camry Hybrid and it's the best vehicle I have ever owned, that being said from someone nearing 70 years old and have owned over 25 vehicles. We always get at least 45 MPG in the U.S., over 50 MPG most all times, and over 60 MPG on several 250 mile road trips driving between 65 and 75 Miles Per Hour. With over 22,000 miles on the Camry Hybrid, we have averaged 52.7 MPG total.
I’ve owned a Camry XSE 4 popper for the last year. I had no idea there was storage underneath the wireless charger.. 😮 thanks for that. I love my Camry except for the lackluster motor and brakes. *cries in poor* Nice review dude
I mean this car came out and was forsale before the Prime was even finished developing, wait a year or 2 and you will probably get the most reliable Hybrids with the Prime camry, outside of the Prius of course.
I had the 2019 Accord 2.0, Turbo ,The turbo went out at 43K miles, the 10 speed automatic transmission would lag at times, not turbo lag, Sold to carmax and Bought a New 2022 Camry XSE with a panoramic sunroof option. This Car is a Lot Quieter than the honda accord and I love driving this thing and its made better, I also got a 2016 Civic Touring, thing about trading that car for the new corolla
The Savagegeese are neither geese nor savage but these guys are obviously extremely knowledgeable about cars. They probably have engineering background. These two guys are the best car critics on the internet, without a doubt.
@@thetechlibrarian I personally don’t like the 4 cylinder. Mainly because it’s very noisy and unrefined especially when compared to the 2017 and earlier Camry 4 cylinder After test driving both the i4 and v6 b2b, it was a no brainer to pay extra to get thr v6
One interesting fact is the Camry hybrid makes its torque at 5,200 rpm whereas the Avalon and ES Hybrid makes it at 3,500 rpm. Also the engine cover for the ES hybrid is vastly different and larger than the Camry hybrid version(same a25afxs powertrain of course) having extremely thick and dense foam underneath. Still finding out more differences as I poke around. another fun fact is the accord compares nearly identically dimensions wise including interior, to the avalon and ES. and not the camry. camry is sort of an odd ball in the segment. i’ll bet the new civic is as big as the camry inside and out. i’ll have to look it up
Have battery concerns Toyotas ever really played out at any significant scale? They seem to run forever without needing replacement. My mom put 250k miles on her Prius and the car still easily got 45 mpg when she sold it simply because she was bored with it. It still ran great
you can tell these are high quality videos because instead of making the vid 11 seconds longer to hit the 10 min mark he cuts it exactly where it should end.
I live in Europe and own a 2013 Lexus is300h it's the same powertrain and it's a excellent family car,a true Lexus with an Amazing fuel economy,and no it's not fun to drive but i don't care it's mission it's take my family from point A to B with a Lexus Confort way.
To avoid that time point 6:25 , just get the regular 2.5L model which is already extremely economical for the size if we compare it to a civic sedan or even the corolla that is not even as economical on the highway .
I stopped paying attention to the future once I bought my low mileage 2015 FType R. I’m just here because savagegeese makes Camry reviews fun. And the comments are funner.
The comments for this video are hilarious! I got to drive an Camry hybrid XLE and i really liked it. Sport mode has some decent acceleration once gas and electric motors kick
I rented a regular Camry a while ago and I loved driving it, but getting in and out was a pain in the ass, seems so low to the ground. I also noticed the transmission got confused now and then and seemed a little hesitant. It only had 400 miles on it so I doubt it was from rental abuse.
This car looks much better than the Accord in my opinion, but both are needing a refresh soon in my opinion to keep up with Kia/Hyundai's offerings. Great informative video Mark!
At this stage in life, I value a quiet car on the highway. Especially tire and road noise on a less than perfect surface. Debating between Accord hybrid and Camry Hybrid. Which one is best and should I avoid the 19" wheel / tire packages due to added road noise?
This is more than just clever and funny, and I agree haha. I honestly find myself thinking this way, I’m 28, pulling myself out of generational poverty and been working most my life. Now that I have money I think this car is the sound and responsible thing to do, it’s practical and reliable, it’s reasonable. When I think these things I feel like I’ve been “got”, like my times up, time to settle down and conform, time to not make impulsive decisions. No chances and no risks, just comfort. Makes me want to jump out of my skin. I’m already bored just thinking about it haha
Got a 2021 Camry hybrid XLE and I plan on keeping this for as long as possible or til Toyota delivers more rav4 primes available. This is a great Uber or Lyft car!
@@mauricemotors8207 I have an old TLX SH-AWD.... the drivetrain is amazing. I'd gladly trade it for an Accord/Camry with a similar drivetrain (that's basically what it is)
If drove very calmly, my 2.5 non hybrid 2019 Camry can reach 40 mpg on long travels highway of course, city driving can drop to 17 mpg easily. Any way a lovely car to drive so far.
Price wise, if you want a V-6 Camry, you should probably just get an Avalon. They're charging way too much for that option in Camry. If looking at a Avalon and you want the hybrid version, you should just get this. Also, is this the Minnie Pearl edition?
The Avalon’s already being discontinued I was looking at the Avalon touring but I didn’t think it was a good buy over a v6 Camry. I think the Camry looks cooler than the Avalon and that red interior is amazing
I have to say one of my fav videos on this channel was when he drove that old Ford pickup truck it was soo different I had to watch it again I wish there were more old cars videos to mix in with the new and some pickup trucks to mix In
We were almost going for the Hybrid Camry, but realized with a slight lower MPG @40mpg on a Fully Loaded Carolla we'd still pay $3000 less for even the base model Camry Hybrid
If during normal pricing times a standard Camry has a $5k discount all day and this always sells for sticker, how many miles will it take to drive to just break even on the hybrid premium?
Let's say that the regular is 30mpg and the hybrid is 50mpg. The price per mile (purely in gas) for an $3 gallon will therefore be 1/30 x 3 and 1/50 x 3, which makes it 10 cent vs 6 cent, or a difference of 4 cent per mile. Therefore, if you want to save, say, $5000, you're gonna need to do 5000 divided by 0.04 = 125 000 miles... At which point you'll be close to needing to change some batteries. Of course, if you are in town, you don't get 30 with the regular, more like 25, at which point your difference is not 4 cent but 6 cents, and your break even point on gas for $5000 becomes 83 333 miles ... This is ignoring potential cost to replace the batteries after 150 - 200K miles (or at least the fact that they become less efficient, nullifying some of the mileage advantages) Bottom line, at this point, the hybrid is only worth it financially if you do a lot of city miles. Which is why the Prius (and the Camry Hybrid) are some favorites of uber drivers. If you do a lot of highway, the hybrid doesn't get significantly better mileage, and if you don't drive a ton anyway, it's not gonna cost a ton in gas anyway... Plug-in hybrids can be different, it depends on your electricity price too...
In many European countries cars are taxed by co2 emissions on purchase. That makes the Camry hybrid reasonably cheap. It is also the reason the hybrid is the only Camry you can buy. Apart from that fuel prices are so high that the variable costs are relatively low. That said almost every new car in Europe is a hybrid nowadays and that applies for Mercedes, Bmw and Audi as well.
@@MrTresto $5000 is not the total differential, have to add the additional $2200 cost for the option. So need to calculate the breakeven for $7200, not $5000. So the breakeven is 7200 div by 0.04 is 180,000 miles. Considering the average buyer of a new car keeps it for 6-8 years (depending on the source) and a car with over 100,000 has little significant trade in value, a the Hybrid does not make financial sense, and is for most people just virtue signaling.
As for me?...I'll too old to give a crap about gas mileage, city or highway. Got a brand new 2021 Avalon Limited with the rock solid, 301hp V6. Fast and quiet. Done.
@@tails300 I knew I wanted the v6 all along but the hybrid was a possible alternative thought But the v6 is just amazing and I get impressive fuel economy
Since Im very familiar with SE 2018 and XSE 2019 both of those cars did 60k plus miles driving 10 hours a day uber NYC I was really looking to hybrid and this might be next. Accord is nice for speedinh but they eat oil . Transmission issues and dash gives alot of warnings . Toyota Camry Is for people who want to drive boring trips make money and pay less for maintenance. They reliable I only did regular maintenance and they were fine .
In all seriousness I have a question. I live in the Midwest and am probably going to buy a Camry. I drive 70 miles round trip to work everyday. What’s the best buy… 1) Camry hybrid (FWD) 2) Camry standard 4 cylinder 3) Camry (AWD) 4 cylinder Just need some advice. Also seeing the number of miles I put on the car am I going to run into battery issues in 5 years with the hybrid? Thanks

Took a long time to say "It's a Camry, better than most, but just a Camry". As a previous owner of this generations Camry Hybrid I enjoyed it for being excellent at everything it had to be and nothing more. Would be great to get a Camry Prime with strong rear axel electric motors pushing 250hp+ and sub 5 second 0-60. That would be exciting for Toyota
1. I much prefer the integrated screen in the dashboard as opposed to the stick up version. So the dashboard of '18,'19 and '20 looked better to me as I expect to see a map and not much else. 2. When the front door swings open, you have to have long NBA arms to reach the handle to close. 3. The shape of the front doors at the bottom can stab you in your calf muscle if you are not careful. 4. It may not be quick but the base LE fuel economy is outstanding and the 8 speed transmission is a good match and AWD if you get snow four or more months of the year. It is as mainstream as the LTD or the BelAir of the 1970's, only much better in many ways.
Not for car enthusiasts, but so many people just want comfort, reliability and economy and this is the car for all of them!
Congratulations guys! Here's to the next 500K.
The hybrid powertrain is a marvel of engineering also there are a ton of excellent safety features. The car is extremely good value for the money especially in Australia. They slug us with luxury car taxes here...
Best friend has had two Toyota Hybrids with ZERO battery pack issues. His latest is the Avalon, 2013 and it has over 220k miles. Again, no issues.
I remember the good old days when people bought cars for transport that were affordable, comfortable, reliable, and fuel efficient. Now every time I see a car review they complain about the infotainment system and screens not big enough and needing more backup camera angles. #ridiculous
The main problem is those reviews lead to carmakers cutting actual quality to get bigger screens and soft materials in at the same price point. A lot of interior quality you can't see, like where felt is used to prevent rattles or what material is used to deaden the sheet metal and influencers have forced automakers to basically stop development there entirely.
I want the big screen for CarPlay, surround view camera for parking, connected routing that routes me around traffic/accidents, and radar cruise control with steering assist for those long highway drives. I want a phone app that doesn't just start the car and lock the doors. I also want climate controls, defrost, heated steering wheel, and seat heating/ventilation controls. And that's why I chose Hyundai over Toyota last year.
The Sonata SEL includes all of the above except the surround view camera for $25,800. You can't even get a push button start on a feature-stripped Camry unless you spend $1,500 more for the base hybrid or $4,200 more for the non-hybrid XLE trim. And unlike Toyota's 3yr/36k warranty, Hyundai includes a 10yr/100k drivetrain warranty. What you're looking for exists. It just isn't made by Toyota.
@@IRSmurf nice. Sounds like you made a good choice. I personally went with a Mazda 6 because the driving dynamics were that much better. The screen is smaller but it shows what I need to see. It was an easy trade off because how the car drives was higher on my list than infotainment.
@@stefanossmitty3318 you made the right choice since Mazda is not only reliable at par with Toyota but also fun to drive unlike boring Toyotas.
@@HaseebShafaqat haha. Exactly. I actually traded in a Camry for the Mazda. Very happy with the decision 👍🏾
Like this shorter review; straight to the point in under 10 mins! Good stuff!👍🏾
I love the opening music on this review. As always, you outdo yourself!
Had to stop and freeze frame it but good to know you also like Make You Feel by Alina Baraz and Galimatias…. That album from years ago is amazing and Galimatias’ recent (long awaited) solo album is excellent! Love the work you do and keep doing your own thing!
I bought the awd Camry. Absolutely love it and the self driving!!!
I’m at least glad that we have the Corolla hatch with a manual with a GR one dropping in the states in the future
The truth is that it won't sell and it will be discontinued with in a year or two.
@@DMaster27 “the price is too high” “I can get a used mustang with that price” lol
@@v8_sami ya too bad that didn't happen with the Civic Type R. They just need to price it around that, the STi, Golf R, and old Focus RS
Almost all of the Corolla Apex models were cvt. I would expect Toyota is happy to let VW and Honda fight over the American customer who wants a stick shift compact-ish family car.
@@alanhorn8253 the Apex was a half baked joke
Purchased a 2008 TCH new. It's since been passed down through three kids and now shows a tick under 190,000 miles. Still on the original battery. Other than routine maintenance, the only thing that it has needed was a fix for leaking inverter coolant. These things may not be exciting, but they are almost indestructible. I can (and will) purchase another Toyota hybrid in a heart beat.
So happy to see you about to past 500k subs. I subbed around 250k. I followed you becuase your quality of videos. 500k is well deserved. Congratulations 👏👏
Only the LE hybrid comes with the lithium ion, the rest of the hybrid trims come with nickel metal hydride. I used to build this generation when I worked at the plant in Kentucky.
@Chirag Mehta Lithion ion ususally perform better and are more environmentally better, but nickel metal hydride are easier to manufacture and toyota says it performs better in different weather conditions
Been a fan of your work for a long time, congrats on reaching 500K subs and hope you get 10 times that.
Keep up these amazing reviews.
Thanks a lot
I have never thought I’d say this but please bring back the boring cars!
Over 50 mpg on the highway in a car this size? Hybrids are boring, but damn, that makes me interested in this car anyway.
Makes a strong case for itself as a commuter/ errand runner that will give you 45mpg+ for 250k miles.
I just sold my Kia Niro to my son. That was a great car. 50 mpg all day. Drove it 80k and not a single problem. The Camry hybrid is a great car for the money. Once you're in the 50 mpg club it's very hard to leave.
@@thereissomecoolstuff it's your son, why not just give it to him as a gift? I can't imagine selling things to my family.
@@janoycresnova9156 it’s a good idea to teach them to depend on themselves. Some even sell it in installments to their sons or daughters.
@@janoycresnova9156 you'll be surprised, I know a lot of people who are spoilt and as they're FIRST car, were getting modern mercedes'.
They are the most loveliest people you'll ever meet wink wink.
This and the Ford Maverick are the first hybrids I'd actually plunk my hard earned cash for. Feel like they've really sorted out hybrids making them not only not miserable to drive but much better battery technology. Not much more money upfront and really great economy in the real world.
video editing is at another level, just love it
Congrats on 500k subscribers!
As I sit on my porcelain throne and thought " well, I guess my time is up",
Then I got a notification for a new savagegeese video.
*sits down*
Have you got hemorrhoids yet?
I'll never forget the day I totaled my Lancer of 6 years and didn't know what I wanted until I truly stumbled upon your first video of the v6 camry.. completely sold me ever since then.
We truly appreciate your unbiased opinions in your car videos
Can't wait to hit that 500K milestone! You guys deserve it!
I quite like the infotainment on these Toyota’s. It’s responsive enough and has everything you need and physical buttons
Excellent review. I'm seriously considering one of these as my next car. I'm glad to hear you liked it.
Great video. Just picked up a Camry hybrid SE two days ago. Love it. Bright red haha
Love your videos geese. It's always a stylish presentation but when you play with the console, put your phone in, put the backseat down, it's always so brash and rough. I think it's hilarious each time when the whole video is so well put together. Thanks for the early Monday laughs!
I'm here after the Camry was announced as a hybrid. Wanted to see how the hybrid system handled compared to a normal gasoline.
Thanks for the review!
My 16 years old son is about to become the family chofeur 30+K for this is a bargain. This will definitely be on the final list when he graduates from his current 2008 Honda accord.
Comprehensive and intelligent review - worth our time🎖️
Can we just take a moment to appreciate the intro music in this video? It's beautiful. I don't think people know that Savagegeese makes all of his own intro music, unlike all of the other soy-drinking, shaky-cam, low production, weird screaming thumbnail, so called car reviewing wannabe RUclips channels.
Hey leave soy out of this

TOYOTA CAMRY STOLE MY GIRL?!? (REVIEW) GAME CHANGER??? **GONE SEXUAL**
Perspective: You can get a midrange camry for the price of a 1.5t spec civic.
Just food for thought.
Would you rather have a 1.5t CVT or a 2.5L 8 Speed.
Also - Toyota CVT's don't use belts. Just another fact.
Toyota does make a conventional belt CVT with a launch gear, without hybridization.
The e-CVT is the model to buy though.
What’s the price?
I drive a 2021 Corolla LE CVT. The launch is dangerously bad if you gotta merge into traffic from a stop. But once you're moving I have no complaints. It's a very smooth ride, and very fuel efficient. And the giddy up is more than fine for a 1.8L. Toyota's CVTs also aren't really known for having problems like other manufacturers'. Overall, I'm really happy with how the transmission performs. Coming from someone whose passed 2 cars were manual. Definitely half as fun to drive as those though haha.
@@sgtpepper6379 yeah that’s because the LE uses the old CVT and not the one with the launch gear. You should have bought an SE/XSE or the Hybrid.
Hence why it’s called Ecvt, planatery gears
Goose's hat game - still got the TAG. Can't even compete
Your reviews are of high quality.. always very objective...great
Another vid, heck yah, you just made my morning!
Awesome video/review. Can you review a 2022 Toyota Camry XSE AWD? Curious if the driving experience is different from the Camry FWD vehicles. Loved your camry V6, Hybrid, and TRD reviews!
I’ve said it before and say it again: hybrids save you so much money in the long haul. Most people don’t really think about the long term costs that regular ICE cars require. If you look at the operating hour cost (like aviation does), internal combustion engines are SUPER expensive. For example, 100k miles at 20 mpg at current gas prices (100000/20) = 5000 gallons of fuel at $4.5 per gallon-> $22,500.00 just on gas over 100k miles (maybe 10 years). That’s almost the price of the car. At the same gas price, a hybrid getting 48 mpg would cost you $9,375.00.
Companies need to figure out how to make hybrids a little more fun to drive. And that CVT/eCVT sound is not appealing to most car enthusiasts like me. I would buy this car though.
George you nailed it
your calculation is almost correct but you didn't mention the fact that hybrid cars will cost you around 5k more than a non-hybrid one in the first place and you have to change the battery almost every 8 years Which it won't be cheap,so even on a long term use there isn't a significant difference between the two
@Gottes God "Have to be mindful of raining season"? What are you even talking about. I've forded a Prius through a foot and a half of water by making sure the ICE didn't kick on, and I regularly drive my Fusion Hybrid in torrential rain and deep snow.
There are also far more reliability issues that come with regular ICE cars. The only potential long-term concern would be the HV battery, but even then they're no more likely to fail than an automatic transmission. By the time it might fail; the amount of money you've saved in gas, oil, brakes, belts, etc far exceeds the cost of replacing the HV battery.
The rain thing really has me with a loss for words. That's the first time I've ever heard someone say that, and I have no clue what you mean. Do you think they'll electrocute you if you drive it in rain?
@ttabibi1829 To be fair, the hybrid batteries tend to last longer at between 10-15 years with 12-15 years being more common. There's also a medical courier that has 440,000 miles on his 2020 Rav4 Hybrid and he's still going strong.
@@ttabibi1829In Canada, hybrid models costs $2200 more than ICE equivalent trims. Hybrid battery warranty is 12 years. In the last Toyota AGM, they made a point on lowering battery replacement costs. Note this is strictly for the battery and not labor charges tacked on by the dealer.
The best configuration of the Camry Hybrid is the LE with heated cloth seats. It’s just as refined and nice to drive without the “sporty” pretensions.
And cheaper, but I think this xse is nicely equipped for $32k
Nope, it's the XLE Hybrid.
500k subs! Congrats!
Love mine…50.4 mpg, comfortable and fun ride. Great car.
what model do you have?
Definitely this is the hybrid with very few compromises, looks like a regular car, is going to make you save a bunch of money at the pump, but most importantly, has that Toyota reliability.
Plus is made in the USA? I'm sold!
The sonata hybrid looks better and has a nicer interior with more tech
@@kristians2704 The looks is always debatable, more tech is not necessarily always better, It tends to break more often than none.
I have a 2020 Camry hybrid and I live in the Davis dam area where manufacturer torture test vehicles, so im normally driving up steep inclines and get 45mpg the engine rarely rev up unless I'm passing. It far exceeds my expectations
@@lightman489 I'm happy for you my man. Thanks for replying on my comment. 👍🏼
@@lightman489 Agreed, also have the 2020 Camry Hybrid and it's the best vehicle I have ever owned, that being said from someone nearing 70 years old and have owned over 25 vehicles. We always get at least 45 MPG in the U.S., over 50 MPG most all times, and over 60 MPG on several 250 mile road trips driving between 65 and 75 Miles Per Hour. With over 22,000 miles on the Camry Hybrid, we have averaged 52.7 MPG total.
I’ve owned a Camry XSE 4 popper for the last year. I had no idea there was storage underneath the wireless charger.. 😮 thanks for that. I love my Camry except for the lackluster motor and brakes. *cries in poor*

I mean this car came out and was forsale before the Prime was even finished developing, wait a year or 2 and you will probably get the most reliable Hybrids with the Prime camry, outside of the Prius of course.
Rav4 has got all those sales, everyone wants an SUV (or most people). Yet they can't build enough of the Rav4 Prime units.
I had the 2019 Accord 2.0, Turbo ,The turbo went out at 43K miles, the 10 speed automatic transmission would lag at times, not turbo lag, Sold to carmax and Bought a New 2022 Camry XSE with a panoramic sunroof option. This Car is a Lot Quieter than the honda accord and I love driving this thing and its made better, I also got a 2016 Civic Touring, thing about trading that car for the new corolla
I hope you were maintaining it properly.
The Savagegeese are neither geese nor savage but these guys are obviously extremely knowledgeable about cars. They probably have engineering background. These two guys are the best car critics on the internet, without a doubt.
My XSE v6 is shockingly efficient. I get 29 mixed driving and on the highway I easily exceed the rated 32mpg
Considering exactly that trim with V6
@@njnikusha definitely go with the v6 if you enjoy the power. It’s a totally different car than the I4
@@thetechlibrarian I personally don’t like the 4 cylinder. Mainly because it’s very noisy and unrefined especially when compared to the 2017 and earlier Camry 4 cylinder
After test driving both the i4 and v6 b2b, it was a no brainer to pay extra to get thr v6
@@naveenthemachine but the addition of the hybrid brings responsive torque to the 4 cylinder
@@briank10101 true. It certainly does.
One interesting fact is the Camry hybrid makes its torque at 5,200 rpm whereas the Avalon and ES Hybrid makes it at 3,500 rpm.
Also the engine cover for the ES hybrid is vastly different and larger than the Camry hybrid version(same a25afxs powertrain of course) having extremely thick and dense foam underneath. Still finding out more differences as I poke around.
another fun fact is the accord compares nearly identically dimensions wise including interior, to the avalon and ES. and not the camry. camry is sort of an odd ball in the segment. i’ll bet the new civic is as big as the camry inside and out. i’ll have to look it up
new Civic is still way smaller, at least dimension- wise
Have battery concerns Toyotas ever really played out at any significant scale? They seem to run forever without needing replacement. My mom put 250k miles on her Prius and the car still easily got 45 mpg when she sold it simply because she was bored with it. It still ran great
you can tell these are high quality videos because instead of making the vid 11 seconds longer to hit the 10 min mark he cuts it exactly where it should end.

Yippie yeah the 500k subs is finally near!
To avoid that time point 6:25 , just get the regular 2.5L model which is already extremely economical for the size if we compare it to a civic sedan or even the corolla that is not even as economical on the highway .
Good seating position in that Camry. Your shoulder even topped the windowsill, so you don't have to drive peering through the steering wheel.
I stopped paying attention to the future once I bought my low mileage 2015 FType R. I’m just here because savagegeese makes Camry reviews fun. And the comments are funner.
The comments for this video are hilarious!
I got to drive an Camry hybrid XLE and i really liked it. Sport mode has some decent acceleration once gas and electric motors kick
I rented a regular Camry a while ago and I loved driving it, but getting in and out was a pain in the ass, seems so low to the ground. I also noticed the transmission got confused now and then and seemed a little hesitant. It only had 400 miles on it so I doubt it was from rental abuse.
Sedans are all low slung like sports cars these days, no wonder people buy CUVs instead.
This car looks much better than the Accord in my opinion, but both are needing a refresh soon in my opinion to keep up with Kia/Hyundai's offerings. Great informative video Mark!
This aged like fine wine. The new accord is fugly
This review is like the car on the video, it’s sort of the feeling of “that’s it, I want more.”
I went to Orlando from Miami and was averaging 32mpg doing 86mph. I can IMAGINE what I'd do with 50mpg 💀.
At this stage in life, I value a quiet car on the highway. Especially tire and road noise on a less than perfect surface. Debating between Accord hybrid and Camry Hybrid. Which one is best and should I avoid the 19" wheel / tire packages due to added road noise?
Let me be the first to congratulate you on 500K subs here soon.
Entirely practical. An intelligent purchase. I hope I never own one.
This is more than just clever and funny, and I agree haha. I honestly find myself thinking this way, I’m 28, pulling myself out of generational poverty and been working most my life. Now that I have money I think this car is the sound and responsible thing to do, it’s practical and reliable, it’s reasonable. When I think these things I feel like I’ve been “got”, like my times up, time to settle down and conform, time to not make impulsive decisions. No chances and no risks, just comfort. Makes me want to jump out of my skin. I’m already bored just thinking about it haha

If drove very calmly, my 2.5 non hybrid 2019 Camry can reach 40 mpg on long travels highway of course, city driving can drop to 17 mpg easily. Any way a lovely car to drive so far.
Well none mini review. Your video and color match are perfect.
Price wise, if you want a V-6 Camry, you should probably just get an Avalon. They're charging way too much for that option in Camry.
If looking at a Avalon and you want the hybrid version, you should just get this.
Also, is this the Minnie Pearl edition?
The Avalon’s already being discontinued
I was looking at the Avalon touring but I didn’t think it was a good buy over a v6 Camry. I think the Camry looks cooler than the Avalon and that red interior is amazing
I have to say one of my fav videos on this channel was when he drove that old Ford pickup truck it was soo different I had to watch it again I wish there were more old cars videos to mix in with the new and some pickup trucks to mix In
You guys get the V6 version still? In Australia they have dumped the V6, AND most models manual option.
That’s shit dude…
We were almost going for the Hybrid Camry, but realized with a slight lower MPG @40mpg on a Fully Loaded Carolla we'd still pay $3000 less for even the base model Camry Hybrid
Are you planning on reviewing the Corolla Cross?
If during normal pricing times a standard Camry has a $5k discount all day and this always sells for sticker, how many miles will it take to drive to just break even on the hybrid premium?
Let's say that the regular is 30mpg and the hybrid is 50mpg. The price per mile (purely in gas) for an $3 gallon will therefore be 1/30 x 3 and 1/50 x 3, which makes it 10 cent vs 6 cent, or a difference of 4 cent per mile. Therefore, if you want to save, say, $5000, you're gonna need to do 5000 divided by 0.04 = 125 000 miles... At which point you'll be close to needing to change some batteries. Of course, if you are in town, you don't get 30 with the regular, more like 25, at which point your difference is not 4 cent but 6 cents, and your break even point on gas for $5000 becomes 83 333 miles ... This is ignoring potential cost to replace the batteries after 150 - 200K miles (or at least the fact that they become less efficient, nullifying some of the mileage advantages)
Bottom line, at this point, the hybrid is only worth it financially if you do a lot of city miles. Which is why the Prius (and the Camry Hybrid) are some favorites of uber drivers. If you do a lot of highway, the hybrid doesn't get significantly better mileage, and if you don't drive a ton anyway, it's not gonna cost a ton in gas anyway... Plug-in hybrids can be different, it depends on your electricity price too...
In many European countries cars are taxed by co2 emissions on purchase. That makes the Camry hybrid reasonably cheap. It is also the reason the hybrid is the only Camry you can buy. Apart from that fuel prices are so high that the variable costs are relatively low. That said almost every new car in Europe is a hybrid nowadays and that applies for Mercedes, Bmw and Audi as well.
@@MrTresto $5000 is not the total differential, have to add the additional $2200 cost for the option. So need to calculate the breakeven for $7200, not $5000. So the breakeven is 7200 div by 0.04 is 180,000 miles. Considering the average buyer of a new car keeps it for 6-8 years (depending on the source) and a car with over 100,000 has little significant trade in value, a the Hybrid does not make financial sense, and is for most people just virtue signaling.
I am absolutely floored by the amount of surface rust already present on the undercarriage of this Camry. Holy shit.
After reviewing yet another appliance in wheels, SG has gotten one step closer to going full postal.
In my country the hybrid is the only model available in 3 trim levels. It is used in Taxi fleets. It is also the same price as the Honda Civic.
You need to try openpilot on this car, it is a game changer for highway driving
As for me?...I'll too old to give a crap about gas mileage, city or highway. Got a brand new 2021 Avalon Limited with the rock solid, 301hp V6. Fast and quiet. Done.

1) Camry hybrid (FWD)
2) Camry standard 4 cylinder
3) Camry (AWD) 4 cylinder
