I bought a new Camry. I didn't even wait for the Free trial period to end. I called them and had everything shut off including XM. If you don't you automatically agree to their terms and conditions after only 30 days. This equates to a lifetime of tracking weather you subscribe or not. The rest of the car is great. But you know what Toyota can do with the fee scam.

Make sure to turn off the driver tracking that they do and share with insurance companies, it should be in your Toyota account setting.

Good review. LE trim better value. Would be nice if memory seats/mirrors were option on LE. Only trim to offer this option is XLE with Premium ($3800) or Premium Plus ($4100) package. BTW, interior cloth on dash/doors looks like a casket.

My wife and I are also diametrically opposed when it comes to temperature. Ironically enough.We are also diametrically opposed to you as a couple. I had all the free trial nonsense turned off. I did not even wait for it to end. I was never going to pay for it so why even use. My phone does everything I need it to. If anyone ever reads the terms of use on XM you would turn it off.

Im really liking these new Camrys. I have a 2021 Mazda6 Signature that I absolutely love! It has EVERYTHING! Including heads up display and adaptive headlights that turn when the wheel does. It has Front wheel drive, the 2.5L turbo, 6 speed auto trans, 19" wheels, Falken FK460's (NICE!!). If I drive like grandma, I can squeeze out 27MPG combined. If I drive like me, I get around 22MPG. And for some reason 89 octane lasts a really long time. Ive got around 450 miles on one tank driving like me. I dont know if Ill ever trade the Mazda because mine is the last year and the top model. I might garage it and buy another daily driver. The new Camry is definitely on the list!

Glad to hear you're getting such good mileage! I also wonder if the vehicle hadn't been properly broken in yet with miles. I think there were just 1,000 or so miles on it when I drove it. So, it's still new, new. But, yeah even at 75 mph for 400 miles, 36 mpg just seemed a tad low to me.

@@jillciminillo that is not it. I got 43.4 mpg on the first tank, but have gotten over 46MPG since. The displayed MPG for the life of the vehicle is 46. My calculated based on the pump is higher. I do mostly highway driving. I have a AWD XSE. My total miles is a hair over 2000. The only tank I got below 46mpg was the first one. My highway MPG ranges from 45.5 to 52.5. My in town driving averages under 40, but I think that is due to living in a very hilly place. Also with local drives I am more likely to have a bunch of weight in the car (passengers, etc). My XSE has the larger 19" rims and so should get worse mpg than the XLE you tested. Cruise control helps as it is smoother than I am. I am not employing hypermile techniques. just the ACC, that and I try to limit speeding and passing.

It’s a hard choice between this and the Accord. The Accord has better NHV, and rides better but the Camry gives you AWD and an engine that has port and direct injection unlike the Accord. I also like the interior design of the Accord a lot better but that front end will need to be fixed in the mid cycle refresh.

Drive them back to back. I did and decided on an XSE. The Accord Touring was not as comfortable (weird shape to seat). The Accord Sport-L was very comfortable, but there was more road noise. I think the accord looks better inside and out. It also has a better sounding stereo. But the Camry was more comfortable and quiet and the XSE just drove better as well. And I drive mostly highway where the Accord only gets 41mpg. Also I preferred the AWD. I wanted to buy an accord, but for me the Camry was a better fit.

@@bjornlovoll8972 The XSE, and XLE have more sound deadening than the SE and LE. For the Accord, i believe most of them have the same amount of sound deadening except for the touring which is the most quiet one. It is odd because SavageGeese Tested the XLE or XSE vs the non touring trim Accord and found the Accord to test slightly worse in terms of noise levels but the Accord had a more refined ride and better NVH overall. You’re correct about the fuel efficiency, the Camry should give you better fuel economy on the highway for sure, in the real world the difference should be about 5 mpg difference or less. I have also heard that Hondas hybrid system is more refined than Toyota, it is slightly less efficient but it should be more refined. What is your opinion about that? The Accord should drive like an EV at city speeds since the electric motor does 100% of the propulsion until you hit higher speeds.

@@bjornlovoll8972 I am going to wait until the refreshed Accord. The Accord with the most isolation is the Touring, the XLE/XSE Camrys both have better isolation than the LE/SE.

Which hybrid system did you think was smoother, I don’t mind losing a few mpg if it means it has the smoother hybrid system.

@@Fadic4 I saw the savagegeese video. I can say something funny was going on with regards to that comment. We sat in them more or less at the same lot (a large dealer near where I live includes both Honda and Toyota sub-dealerships. There is no mistaking how much quieter the XLE/XSE was. I wanted to get the Honda, but as I said I decided that looking better by itself was not enough. If the Civic Hybrid had been out, that might have been a better comparison since the MPG is more in line with what the Toyota gets. But 2200 miles in, my XSE is treating me well. I got 50.2mpg on the ride home yesterday (around 45 miles)... of course today on the way to work I only got 45.8, but the speeds were much higher. I'm certain the next gen Accord will be better than the current one, but I can't drive future cars.
