Very Nice Car

The car is comfortable. Great gas mileage. Good visibility. The car has proven to be a great purchase. It's really tough to find a good deal on a used car. Even tougher to find a honest dealer. (is that an oxymoron?)

Best Driving Car I have owned

It is a Toyota, so that says a lot about its reliability. Everything works, Toyota makes the driving experience easy for you. The car is very easy to drive, comfortable to drive. A very quiet car to drive. The Hybrid makes passing by the pump a joy, it gets over 30 in the city and the highway over 40 MPG. WeatherTec floor mats have kept the car like new along with the leather seats. Lightly driven, owner works from home. Love the car.

The newer version of the camry is not as big inside even though the dealer insists its the same size. Also love the near 40 MPG it gives

200,000 Miles.... never a breakdown

This is the best automobile that I have ever owned. I have owned owned Honda Accords, cadillacs, Pontiacs Oldsmobiles. The Cadillac was more comfortable as well as the Pontiac. All of the cars other than the Toyota Camry had broken down during their lifetimes, many times. I have driven my Toyota Camry for 7 years and 200,000 miles. The only repairs and maintenence I have had to do with this car is oil changes, tires, main battery, and change fluids. The car has never failed to start has never broken down while I was driving it Envy battery that operates the hybrid elements of the automobile has never broken and does not even appear to be less efficient than when the car was new!

Still happy with my Camry Hybrid after 6 years

After 6 years of owning this car, I still love it. It's comfortable - for the driver - it has been SUPER RELIABLE, it gets great mileage and it handles well. My only complaint is on the passenger side, the legroom is lacking, so it's not comfortable for a tall, big person to ride in for a long trip. I've never had a car for 6 years that needed nothing but oil changes and tires.

Drives really nice!

So far, so good! I am use to driving a larger vehicle (SUV, van, etc.) but I am loving my Camry. It drives smoothly and is economically friendly when it comes to the gas tank.

Reliability personified

I have owned this car since new, June 2012, and covered 78,500 miles at an average of 35.8 mpg. You get more around town, as the electric motor is used more. But my driving is a mixture of town and freeway driving. The acceleration is really good as the electric motor backs up the engine instantly. The blend of performance, mpg and carbon dioxide emissions is really good. The car is built like a tank. It is easy to see why Toyotas are so regularly at the top of reliability tables. All I've had go wrong are: new cables for gasoline and trunk release and a new valve for the windscreen washers. My version built in 2012, had improved roadholding, but it is at the expense of the hard ride. The car dips too much when braking too. But it is so quiet inside the cabin, which makes long journeys very peaceful.

Camry Hybrid LE = A++

Great car. All the positive attributes of a hybrid plus a little power when you need it. Smooth, solid, and QUIET. I just finished my fourth year approaching 100K with this car and plan on keeping it even when I get my Tesla.
