Special thanks to our Patreons for their support of the channel! Camry or Accord?

[koyjzwf]

i want one, but my 2016 camry hybrid has 200, 000 miles on it and it hasn't broken down yet, so i can't justify getting rid of it 😂

[ryans]

Hopefully they come out with a Camry prime, that could be interesting. Toyota said the body color grill on the XSE was to make it more sporty.. Maybe I’m in the minority but I think it looks less sporty than the SE

Great video! You cover lots of details. Thanks!

I believe the DRL's change to amber for the turn signals; the bars when you're braking are probably regen indicators; with the exception of a missing rear wiper it's the perfect sedan. Great review.

[erykirzenski]

Sucks that the new accord only comes with 192 hp. They really dropped the ball especially when compared to this, at least power-wise.

[berniemadoff]

Probably going for the XLE in Ocean Gem or Wind Chill Pearl.

I think the brake indicator could be great if it catches when a caliper starts to seize up from any defect possibly

[bernardascher]

Supposed to be getting my at the dealership either tomorrow or Friday! So excited.

I own a 2023 GTI and that has 19.9 cubic ft of trunk space and that Camry trunk looks at least 60% larger than it. Much more usable space and it just seems that people tend to underrate the cargo capacity of the modern sedan.

RIP V6. I really wished the next ES would adopt the 2.4 turbo engine and an electric motor in the back. But that being said. This is a handsome car and that interior in really good

I add to the call for Camry Prime! What's the delay? And why not a Crown Prime, like is available in Japan? What's up with that?

[davidbedwell]

It makes me sad that i can't unlock my door just by grabbing the handle anymore. Even my Tacoma had that!

[johnnyp]

Coming from CLA 35 Amg, want mileage from this hybrid! Hope I will like the handling 😮

[ibrahimbashir]

Better engine, more power, better efficiency, way more tech features, better driving dynamics, quieter... Its much better than accord

[khakiswag]

The indicator for when you’re on the brakes is for adaptive cruise. When it’s using the brakes it indicates the brake lights are on.

[flyerx]

My Crown Vic is aging out due to rust (17 years old now) and man, I think this would be one fine replacement.

[coniccinoc]

Number 1 con for me are the low profile tires.
I live in an area with rough roads. Low profiles blow out the side wall after a decent pothole.

[cyrus]

I drove the new Accord twice but didn’t like it enough even though it’s rated a little better than the 2025 Camry but I chose Camry and bought it yesterday. It doesn’t what it’s supposed to- I bought the XLE with one of 2 packages that included the panoramic roof and JBL stereo etc. the gas mileage has hit 43.2 miles already! I took a road trip for 8 hours after I bought it. I also have a 2021 Mazda CX-5 with 22, 322 miles. The Camry is comfortable on the highway and quiet.

[LivingInAnInverseReality]

I have a Lexus SUV hybrid but I like this Camry sedan a lot.
