The Toyota Camry, redesigned for 2018, replaced its previous bland exterior with bold, aggressive sheet metal. Other upgrades include an improved drivetrain, better fuel economy, and a suspension tuned for sportier handling. The top-trim XLE Hybrid’s interior features high-quality plastics and soft-touch surfaces on the dash. The front bucket seats are firm but comfortable. All controls are well marked and easy to use. The backseat is fine for two people but tight for three. The trunk is large and deep, because the hybrid battery pack is now under the backseat. The Camry’s hybrid powertrain—a 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine that generates 176 hp, a 118-hp electric motor, and a CVT—is smooth, with great drivability. Total power output is 208 hp. The XLE Hybrid has good acceleration, with responsive and sporty handling, although the steering is imprecise and has an artificial feel. Toyota’s Safety Sense suite of advanced safety features is standard. The Hybrid XLE’s fuel economy is an EPA-rated 46 mpg in combined city/highway driving, excellent for a midsized sedan.
