2024 Toyota Camry

Pros: Strong and efficient powertrains; optional AWD; simple controls; well-built interior regardless of trim Cons: Antiquated infotainment; engines lack refinement; not as good to drive as Accord The most recent Toyota Camry generation, the eighth in total, represented a sea change moment for the long-time, best-selling family sedan. It’s better looking and better to drive than its predecessors, with a diversity of model choices catering to different tastes. It was a successful redesign effort that has kept the Camry relevant over the years, but that redesign effort was also revealed six years ago. Typically, that amount of time means the end of the line for a Camry generation, and we have reason to believe that will be the case for the 2024 Toyota Camry. A new generation, albeit one likely based on an updated version of the current car’s platform, is possibly coming next model year.   In the meantime, let’s go back to the statement that today’s 2024 Camry still being relevant. It remains well-rounded, with loads of space, a solidly made interior, powerful and efficient engines, available all-wheel drive, and all those different versions with varying styling and driving dynamics. Feeling a sporty vibe? Go for something with SE or TRD in the name. Fancy something fancier or more relaxed? Go with an LE or XLE. In any of those directions, apart from the V6-only TRD, we would recommend opting for the hybrid. Its more powerful and refined than the base inline-four, and gets much better fuel economy. Ultimately, we would recommend the Honda Accord over the Camry, and suggest checking out the Hyundai Sonata and Kia K5 as well (though acknowledge their residual values won’t be as robust). There’s also something to be said for what Toyota has coming for generation No. 9. It probably won’t be as radical of an overhaul as last time, but it also doesn’t need to be.

A redesigned Camry is expected next year, but for 2024, it is unchanged. Camry XLE Hybrid interior What are the Camry interior and in-car technology like? The Camry interior is perhaps a little over-styled, but you can't call it boring. Quality is also above average, as there really isn't much of drop-off in look, feel and general ambiance from a fancy XLE to the entry-level LE. We also like the abundance of storage space in the doors, under the center armrest and in the voluminous two-tier smartphone bin. Both the standard 7-inch screen and available 9-inch unit share a common user interface, so you're really only getting extra inches rather than different functionality. As such, what's on either is a love-it-or-hate-it affair. Some will appreciate its simple layout and physical buttons, including the “Home” button that lets you quickly escape Apple CarPlay and Android Auto (among other screens).
