- Опубликовано: 28 янв 2019
- Toyota Camry has always been quick to adapt to modern times and the 8th generation model is no different. For 2019, it looks more upmarket than before, boasts of more space and a longer features list. There's a revised powertrain under the hood which is more efficient than before, despite packing more power. And then there is the new TNGA platform which might even convince you to move to the driver's seat. All of this, while being more affordable than before.

Hello #PDArmy! Now, the new Toyota Camry has a lot going on for it, but is it enough to make it cool? Do let us know by Liking the video, sharing your thoughts with us, below.
وحله الايك
Its sells as a taxi out in the US.
Still not that appealing as it's competing with luxury brands at that price
That lill hatch to access boot is for skiing 🎿 not to grab something from bootspace daa..... 😪

You can buy 2 of these in America in the price of one in India and may still have money left for year of fuel That's one big reason.
Brutally true!
U have hit the bulls eye.👌
They should manufacture the car in India
Yeah that is true but you also have to consider the fact that this camry is better equiped, better built than the Camry sold in America. I would still buy this Camry over a Skoda Superb or a BMW 3 series.
This Camry is definitely the best Camry so far and this review is also one of the best PD reviews in recent times. No unnecessary drama and yet very informative and well presented. Hope your reviews will be as good as this in future.
Pricing is reason why if failed to make impact in india - 25 lakhs this car will sell like crazy 👍 - in us price is just right
This is not manufactured locally. It is a CKD unit because Toyota is unsure if it will sell in the numbers of the Germans
If a person is spending around 40 lacs, of course his phone supports wireless charging 😂
The camry sells more in the north American market because over here it's mostly used for taxis and uber but in India it is offered more as an luxury saloon where it then has to compete with the germans. Jmo.
Absolutely right! The new Camry is good and I wish I could have it. But look at it this way, at almost 38 lakhs on the road, that is dangerously close to the Land Rover Discovery territory. Coz starting at 44 lakhs you get more toys and 4 wheel drive. All said and done, I am a big admirer of Toyota's build quality and reliability (excludes the Etios and everything that looks like it)
Finally the truth and we Indians are like it's a Toyota it's reliable that's why it's costly but in reality every car today is very reliable just that brand name and reliability doesn't justify it's price
@@ronny1990 yeah they are reliable I'm not denying it just I'm saying that they are just using there reliability to price that much that's not cool
@@dishantbalotiya8521 i feel you there bro.
Did 170k miles on my 2012 Camry hybrid, still clocking. All these miles was done for Uber
I think in India after a certain budget range the term BRAND VALUE comes out...so the people who is looking for a car over 30 to 35L definitely choose Merc , Audi , OR BMW
Probably the best vehicle review channel in the world, most of the video consists of cinematic shots however covers everything about the car
Humbled to hear that, comrade! Do hit Like and Share!
Reviews everything but forgets to review the HYBRID SYSTEM.
it is same as before, it's a car review not a hybrid system review.
Finally! Music that lowers in volume when the host talks. This officially makes powerdrift the best channel for reviews. The background music doesn't intrude into the content like before. Just compliments. Subscribed right back on. Good going Power Drift! Bless you guys and great job Glen. :)
Which person in their right mind would pay around 40 lakhs for a Toyota when you can get a Merc for the same price! 🤣
Someone who isn't stupid enough to pay 40 lakh rupees for an entry level Mercedes when he could get the top variant of a Camry for the same.
Plus Toyota's resale value... availability of spare parts , maintenance cost n thts too in bracket of affordability n it's fuckin hybrid.... Merc is dead in a pit there ... 😁😁😁 BMW is atleast atleast atleast an optn to think over the Camry.
@@gowthambond007 well I guess there are a lot of stupid people on the roads cause I don't see a lot of Camry's around! As far as I know people would rather go for an SUV or pay a little extra and go for a good german car! Am I wrong?
@@Grum_u_motherfucker you do have a good point yeah but let's be honest people would rather spend this much money on a full sized SUV or pay a little extra and go for one of the germans cause in india in this price segment Toyota isn't the status symbol that an endevour or a merc is!
@@ayushdowerah6855n I agree wth ew wth this status n brand thing
... Dnt know why we indian r so obsessed wth brand tht we clogged our decision. N dnt laugh on me- Tata is offering so much bt people wud like to go wth tht 10inch infotainment gimmick screen n heads up display tht we hardly use.. welcome... This is india....
Your not in America boss its not 4 hundred thousand, 4 lakh ✌️
The passion and the soul that other PD videos used to have are clearly missing in this. It seems you are doing this as if you had to do this... We want that powerful and enthusiastic PD reviews.
As far as the video is going it felt like the company guys are giving a presentation(in a nice way).Coming to the video you guys did cool and unlike some of the previous videos which was centered more on drama this one is charming and this is the way i crave for and finally beautiful presentation for the beautiful camry and all the best guys.#PDARMY always rocks &❤#PDARMY for your effort.
Kindly teach faisal khan how to review. He's just barking.
It's phenomenal....... 😅
The give him constructive criticism as a civilised human, instead of barking yourself.
My choice in that segment VW PASSAT- HIGHLINE(white)😘

Well done Powerdrift, a simple yet classy review. Keep it up guys.
P.S.- Please do all the reviews this way only, leaving all the bullshit you guys did with the Santro. 🙂🙂🙂
Aye, thank you for that feedback, Priyanshu. 😀
Where Do you guys find such cool sound tracks for your videos ? And btw superb review !
Toyota is known for their engine reliability... And Camry isn't an exception... Indian market might be a set back for Camry, but The Global sales figures says the original story... I hope this iteration changes Camry's sales figures and let the other manufacturers to make more hybrids...
.
.
.
As always...
Proud to be in PDarmy...
First check the global market prices and compare it to Indian prices you'll know why it doesn't sell well
@@dishantbalotiya8521 Thank you sir... But that pricing isn't the mistake of Toyota, it also depends on our taxing system too...
@@dishantbalotiya8521 go check prices in singapore. you'll be amazed.
The only problem this car has is the price, if the non hybrid version was priced similar to the Elantra then it would really sell well, but Americans would laugh if they knew we pay so much for a Camry
Will you laugh if you knew that in Singapore Fortuner is sold for over Rs. 80,00,000/- YES THAT'S 80 LAKHS
1.6L Corolla (128 PS) Costs as much as 45 Lakhs.
Love the review but I really want to know which track is it at the credits part ?
How did they skip android auto/apple carplay, powered tail gate which are offered by other cars in 2019? Except that i feel it is good as of mostly. Does it have a auto dim inside rear view mirror ?
the pricing killed my interest....😅
Hey great video...... what about the ground clearance?....good for Indian roads?
Did you forget to mention the 360 degree cam, amongst things missing in the new Camry, Glen?
A review as elegant as the reviewed.
Rohal albal tenhut is irritating.
The front panel is superbly designed providing the driver all sort of capabilities without any distractions.. the seats and boot space looks nice too.
I love this car, especially *XSE V6* with *Dual Tone (White & Black) and Red seats* which is not available in India.
For competition, Skoda Superb Petrol is 8 lakhs cheaper than this.
Nice video Glen and team PD! was waiting for this review. Thank you for sharing.
Exterior &&
Interiors are awswwmmm!!!!
Clean and on to the point review
Awesome
How much speed we can do in pure electric mode?
I think this is the i would really like be in and driven around. This car really has a very fresh clean and bright interior which gives you upmarket feel every time you get in... yes! It does look premium.
They should rebadge it as a lexus in India. Then probably it would have better sales
ES?
Lexus is not just a rebadge, it's crazy luxury and overpricing
Bgm is killer bro.. any ideas where to get
Thanks, I had completely ignored, not I think , I will drop Superb & go for it.
It costs 36 lakhs in India cuz of duties!!! Anyone with a normally functioning brain will buy the 18 lakh Civic. It's just foolishness on part of Toyota, they just focus on Innova and Fortuner and expect Indians will happily buy their 2-3 generations old Etios and shit or a horribly priced Camry.. It took them a decade to finally bring Yaris to India and now that segment is too competitive and they're losing there too. God knows who's heading their India unit.
The quality of Toyotas manufactured in India vs those manufactured in Japan are night and day.
It's a hybrid car. It's not a surprise it's so expensive. Just look at the price of Hyundai Kona
Now 2020 Prius prime has been launched in usa , priced at 25lk (top end)ex showroom , which is a plugin hybrid. It has got 40km range just with ev mode. there was a 2019 model too.
Are we not paying enough already .
Do you know Fortuner and possibly innova too are imported CKD models. Indians cannot make cars in 30+lakh range, all of them are inported.
I still think Skoda Superb is better
Gururaj Kammar yes
this was the best coverage of camry compared to AutoCar/Overdrive. Like the extra research put in.
Glad you liked it Deepankar :)
Such an amazing review ! @glen , good job , buddy !! 👍🏻
I’d rather buy a Kodiaq L&K Trim 💁🏾♂️
The Kodiaq cannot even come close to the kind of comfort the Camry offers, and I am not even talking about the back seat experience.
much better than the Accord, would have love to see the V6 engine though
Glenn!!!! Missed u man!! U r back after long time 💐👍 n new Camry still may not make a difference coz it still misses that X factor. Which segment will like this?? I doubt 🤞
Camry has always been in everyone's wish list✌
Awesome PD❤
Luxury car with premium anchor 👏

Can't buy a KTM Duke 200 and watching Camry review 😂😂
More like, getting motivated! ;)
Awesome review
Camry sold very good in Mumbai
Great job Glenn! Professional and business class(both car and you). Very nice one!
One of the better reviews I have seen via an Indian channel.
I've met some people who own GLE, ML, Q7s and even the new Crystas. Elderly gentlemen. They don't care about the entertainment system to the extent that they are on the phone all the time in the car. Worst case, they listen to the radio for a few moments.
But for the younger blokes like us, it's definitely a deal breaker, the absence of CARPLAY or AA
I bought an SCross in 2017 because it was one of the only few cars that had CARPLAY then.
nice review
is this bs6 compliant, kindly reply
Of course
It is such a good car. If I am not wrong, considering the Indian market, at about 40L on-road price, Indian consumers would still prefer a Skoda Superb or even Merc CLA/GLA.

Assw
Both skoda and mercs are unreliable cars they are huge money pits!
I've seen almost all Camry review on RUclips and trust me this was the best and most fun to watch huge thumbs up 👍
Wow glen ur probably the only one who has ever said that “ CAMRY IS FUN TO DRIVE “
Just wow ......
CAMRY IS FUN TO DRIVE, probably you have not driven it yet, and fun in the sense of camry.
Ankit Mittal “ in the sense of camry “
Now that is one debatable statement .
For eg : if you drive a maruti 800 ull probably find camry fun to drive ...
Mk 8209 oh no but i drive a santa Fe, a 3 series.
But still it’s not really bad. Driving camry IS fun.
Ankit Mittal 3 series and u say this is fun .....
Well ...
I have driven this generation of the Camry multiple times and YES I can confirm that it’s fun to drive. Much more so than the previous generations.
Great car
But android auto and apple car play would have been appreciated
True... still don't understand why Toyota is reluctant to support it
When u will fully review the alturas g4??
Which one is the best? Camry or New Civic? I m spoilt for choice. Guide pl
you can buy 2 civic at a price of 1 Camry!!! (Approx.) This says for itself.
Bro any time Camry
I love this car.. this would be my pick for city driving. Only this is The Lexus ES is only 15L more and with features I would go for that..😍
P.S - Sedans not good for highways in UP, Bihar. Loved the review
PERFECT REVIEW. CAMRY ROCKS
36 lakh for CVT ?
That bgm is soo dopee 🔥🔥
Best d segment looking car but better than old car
that car claims a fuel economy of 23 kmpl .... simply amazing... what i think that the car is more practical to the price to which it is offered
It's not a bad offering considering the improvements from Previous Generation Camry......
Toyota is Maruti of rest of the world.
Finally a to the point review without any non sense from Power drift.
Thanks for showing Ramoji rao studio .... has been a while since I was there last.
It's such a wonderful place!
@@powerdriftofficial Indeed
Its Ramoji film city
Good Car for both passengers and environment.
Nice review abt a nice car.. keep it up pd army..
It’s not America it’s Ramoji film city. You had done the record inside Ramoji film city
Very well portraited video
The video was shot at Ramoji film City & ORR of Hyderabad
A hybrid drivetrain and dashing looks with a highly luxurious cabin. It will sell lot. But overpricing gives it away. Skoda superb and the upcoming civic would be a more better option. Buying a Toyota car in the name of hybrid at this price of 50 l, people with think that we have gone nuts.
Its not 50 lacks. It's 38 lacks on road. Skoda superb might be a good car but it doesn't sells because of skodas poor after sales service and reliability. This is the field where toyota scores
Skodas have shitty reliability, terrible service and overpriced and out of stock parts.. they are huge money pits.
"Buying a Toyota car in the name of hybrid at this price of 50 l, people with think that we have gone nuts."
People pay premium because of it's reliability, and not the hybrid system, check your facts, In Delhi, on road price is Rs. 43,20,000/-,
www.carwale.com/toyota-cars/camry/
make a review of corolla alits diesel
the main reason corolla and camry failed in India is the overpricing considering the price in other countries..Still it continues to be priced high with this model too..camries are very nice cars but it is the reason behind its failure in India. Toyota is pricing very high their cars in India. Fortuner and Innova crysta are considered as just normal cars abroad but premium in India. Their sales numbers are high in India despite its high pricing is because of its seating capacity and reliability..
Could you please do an Accord vs Camry
We would definitely try for that, Aditya!
Superb will still be a better option for lesser price and more offerings..

I think i've seen this car yesterday evening in Secunderabad AOC centre #powerdrift hope it were u guys
That's an amazing track playing in the background towards the end of the video..Can u tell me the name of the track??
It was shot at Ramoji film city
6:35 You say that Camry hasn't adopted any heritage and gives what the customers want! But this generation Camry has clearly a lot of similarities of the Lexus(Front grille, curvy design language)
Want it in RED BLACK TRD Edition.
was this video shot at ramoji film city Hyderabad?
Yes sir
Shoot location RFC Hyderabad 😄
XUV 300 and Baleno Facelift review please...
Nk.
I love the design
Somehow I found the earlier version more visually appealing
Are you sure it has memory for sit? (3:45) where is control for that? I do not think so...
Its in the door
@@abhijeet7543 unfortunately not in my car (even I have hibrid XLE). For USA market they did not install this future (
All the reviews of the New Camry are only quoting the Trai fuel economy figure. I expected @powerdrift to at least show the real life fuel economy that’s displayed in the instrument cluster of the test car which Glenn just drove .
Good review by Team Powerdrift but missed out on the one thing that potential new buyers of hybrid tech are puzzled about - Real World Efficiency of the Camry !
I was able to get a fuel economy of 17.3 kmpl in the old Camry hybrid when it was claimed as 18.16 kmpl. I hope the difference is maintained and it's just not a gimmick .
17 kmpl is excellent relatively. But it’s very misleading why reviewers comfortably omit the real life economy which is displayed on the instrument cluster.
The new-gen Camry looks good but, its not that appealing. The powertrain is capable enough to cater a good driving experience. I loved how they have worked on the inside. The cabin feels premium and it comes equipped with some good amount of features which can easily convince a buyer to invest their money on her.
Design is lit!!!! And its shot at Ramoji Film City right! 😀👍
THIS CAR HAS BIG BURGER EATING MOUTH 😅
I think
However skoda superb l&k version is not hybrid
But it's more premium looking , packed with feature and more to up to the business car
Well, we hope to do a comparo and find out for ourselves!
@@powerdriftofficial looking forward for it
It looks elegant and feels too. It will do its job seamlessly. Lets see if it clicks in India 🇮🇳
Only time will tell!
Nothing like Skoda Octavia RS! And I feel it's a better choice over camry considering Octavia RS is 10L cheaper than Camry and offers almost the same and more power and performance than camry! #PDArmy #Powerdrift #Skoda
All the units of Octavia rs have sold out you you can’t get one
@@jashmodi Yeah bro, Nonetheless Octavia 2019 is still a good choice over this one!
Octavia RS is a driver's car. Camry is a family car, both are targeted for different customers
@@myt3734 Still octavia RS is practical for indian markets as said from the review!
For one year , Octavia is great . For 10 years , Camry is better
*meanwhile*
Accord: Aww that's cute!
Camry is higher version of accord
Accord is a better hybrid. Thanks to the Government for the heavy price tag.
Mychanal
@@kshitizsancheti ,true in terms of price .LOL
What are you doing in Ramoji Flim City... in Hyderabad
We took the car out for a spin! :P
Simply E class at half price.
Any car with a yellow plate looks TAXI to me no matter what.
