The 2021 Toyota Camry range is different. Not that different to look at, sure - but the V6 model has been dropped, and instead there's just one petrol-only offering while the rest of the range is petrol-electric hybrid now.
There have been interior and exterior styling adjustments, with a subtle update to the bumper/grille and revised larger media screens inside. But the secret to the Camry's success in Australia has always been the wide availability of hybird powertrains, and its pricing means it's truly an affordable option for everyone - including Uber drivers.
About 70 per cent of customers went for the hybrid, in the pre-facelift model, which also had a V6 top-spec model. Now it's a more hybrid-heavy approach, we expect that percentage to jump even higher. It's a unique selling point against the VW Passat, Skoda Octavia and Skoda Superb, Mazda 6 and Hyundai Sonata, none of which have hybrid power in Australia.

I would easily pick an SX Hybrid for my next car. I currently own a 2012 Camry Hybrid with nearly 400,000km on it. Aside from tyres all I have had to replace are wiper blades and headlight globes. The brakes are the originals from Toyota after all those kms!! All in all an extremely reliable car that is both comfortable and inexpensive to run.

@JD-nh8tb 2 года назад

Thanks Richard, I've been looking at buying an SX and your comments here are appreciated. And I was bragging about the 150 000 from my original brakes on my city car, well done. I'm still concerned that the cost of PULP petrol will undermine any savings I might get over and above my unleaded car which is a Mitsy Lancer 2.4 that goes like a rocket.

Between my wife and myself we've owned 3 Toyotas two of which have been Hybrids and we simply wouldn't own any other car. We have friends who own VW's and the common complaint with these cars is as the advertisement goes "VW drivers expect more" because if you want even the the basic things which most people expect such as reversing cameras, you have to pay for it. No other car comes close to a Toyota hybrid for their drive train. Amazing cars

@SteelNerve 3 года назад

We love our 2019 Hybrid Camry, the hybrid system deletes all of the issues I hate about a standard petrol auto. No lag on takeoff or changing gears, the electric motor has an instant response so feels seamless and effortless. The fuel mileage is incredible for the size of the vehicle, first tank went 900kms to 46.7lts (50%hwy50%town) my next tank will be a little less being all town I'll expect at least 700+kms. Toyota may of been better off renaming it something other than Camry, as the name in the past labels Plain Jane boring but reliable cars. This new Camry is way a head of the old Camry in styling and level of quality driving with the Toyota reliability. We would of liked an SUV for the ride and access height but could not justify the extra $10k-$15k to get a hybrid Toyota SUV.

@ricardochenlo1681 Год назад

I am waiting for my Camry Hybrid SL and with a bit of 😁 luck maybe after New Year it will arrive!!!

@Roadrunnerz45 Год назад

5:35 - that is a really good point, the lowness of the car. this along with the corolla. while this means a better ride, lower height means less visibility compared to as you say the suv. and less mobile people, the elderly may find it difficult getting in and out.

@mortofromoz1 3 года назад

I own a Ascent Hybrid. It is an excellent vehicle, although sometimes I wish I had opted for the Sport version. The only reason for that is the driver's seat in the sport has electric adjustments. I am tall, my wife is shorter so the seat height has to be manually adjusted up/down with each driver change (21st century problems). The driving experience is excellent, throttle response is telepathic, it eats kilometers comfortably. Our average fuel economy for mainly urban driving is 5.3 litres/100 km. Highway driving continually achieves 4.5-4.8/100 (I have achieced 3.0/100km several times). That provides a realistic 950 - 1000km/50litre tank, enough to ride the infurating petrol price cycles. Truely impressive. Generally this is a car that does what it says on the box. Now the SX model is available as a Hybrid, I would definately go for that option.

The biggest issue is that TOYOTA, in Australia, has insisted both Petrol & Hybrid versions use 95RON fuel from 2021 (used to be just Hybrid) - 14% more expensive than 91. But USA models only need US 87 which=91 RON. And RAV4, same engine supposedly, only 91. Maybe TOYOTA doesn't want to sell any? Doesn't make sense.

The thing that would stop me buying one is that HORRIBLE CVT. No matter what car they are in they drive horribly.Why wouldn't they put the 8spd in it?

@Nicholas.T 3 года назад

Actually Greg, it’s not a regular “rubber band” CVT, if I can call them that! It’s actually what Toyota call an e-CVT, and they ARE quite different! It’s somewhat difficult to explain the technical operation. Have a look at - “Understanding the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid” on the “WeberAuto” channel on RU-vid, for a brilliant explanation! It describes the RAV4 hybrid system, and the Camry one is essentially identical. It will explain why they can’t use a conventional 8spd auto. I’ve driven one and it’s nowhere near as bad as a conventional CVT!! There is a little of that CVT flairing under acceleration at highway speeds, but it’s not too bad. And that’s more than compensated by the ultra quiet, terrific, smooth acceleration of the electric motor from standstill to about 30-35 km/hr, when the petrol engine SEAMLESSLY kicks in!! All in all, Toyota’s hybrid system is really brilliantly designed, and certainly delivers on the fuel economy front I achieved 5.8 litres/100kms in a RAV4 2WD recently, on a 1,800 km road trip, in all sorts of mixed driving, without particularly sparing the right foot! Truly outstanding economy!

Making Camry the ugly girl at the prom...when its grille looks very aggressive compared to the dorkmobiles you placed against it.

originally made in australia. now japan

@Nicholas.T 3 года назад

True Callum, but it was really only assembled here in Australia, from mostly imported Japanese parts. And of course, fully designed and developed in Japan( although a little bit of local suspension tuning for our Australian roads, to be fair)

95 RON petrol required on a Camry is dissapointing - I was about to buy one until I read this 95 RON issue - 95 RON = $1.55 per litre, 91RON = $1.42 per litre, which means 95 RON is 13c per litre more $0.13 x 70 ltrs (per fill) = about $9 extra per tank fill or about $473 extra per year (52 fills). Or look at it another way, it brings your average fuel rating up from 5 ltrs / 100 klms to 5.45 litres / 100 klms - nibbling away at the reasons for buying a hybrid with all of its other detractions (CVT gearbox, funny electric motor & brake regeneration whiny noises, growly Atkinson motor on acceleration, extra engine oil usage issues(needs regular topping up because of oil ring designs), engine re-starting when electric motor not enough power)

They are rated to take e10 which is cheaper than 91RON unleaded.

@breaker1685 2 года назад

@@MrBenHaynes I ended up buying a Camry Hybrid 7 months ago - it's so good on fuel (averages 4.9 l/100 klms) - I only need to fill it once a month so I put in 98 RON now - lol. On one decent trip I actually got 4.2 l/100 klms - I found that amazing !

@@Mightyhawk84k I purchase the Ascent and very happy with it - great value for money for everything it has - e.g., electric folding side mirrors, gas struts for bonnet and boot, auto braking, auto detect just about everything including pedestrians around the car, 9" screen, etc

@Deatomizer 3 года назад

I have a 2019 Camry I drive for work and let me tell you the interior is cheap with whole sections of the dash moves up and down. Also, the bonnet vibrates at an idle. The car is over rated hybrid or not.

@zoltrix7779 3 года назад

Agree, the interior quality is pretty crap, but the car is pretty cheap for what it is.

@jethrohaha 3 года назад

It’s a cheap fleet car what you expect? A butler hidden under your seat?

@yblksama 3 года назад

You should've got a hybrid then, no vibration at idle as the engine isn't running.

In Japan, there is a lot of concern because there is no radiation control. Can Toyota cars imported into Australia have a radioactivity test certificate?
