No other German car manufacturers can give Toyota bulletproof reliability .. way to go Toyota
Mind you, this the highest selling Toyota car in USA. Even in Middle East, people simply love Toyota brand & Camry in particular. Unfortunately Indians do fall for German luxury cars. For me, the looks could have been more aggressive.

In USA it is two segments below German cars. Why it won't sell in Europe, South America and China? People go for Germans bcz of solid build quality and performance. In USA it costs less than 25 lakhs. In India you can get a Passat or superb for less money or Audi, BMW, Mercedes, Jaguar or Volvo sedans.
warlike tiger but german cars are very very unreliable cars. i live in australia and toyota beats all simple because it never breakdown. german cars are better to drive but they are very very expensive to repair. toyota is the most reliable brand in whole world.
@@dhaliwal089 Toyata has the highest recall rate. Now they also started using electronic assists to keep up with Germans and Hyundai which means they will start breaking down.
It’s not about Indians falling for German cars. It’s Toyota’s pricing of their cars in India.
The only reason the Camry is so famous in the United States is because it’s a gateway entry sedan. It’s priced cheap, and a daily driver and almost everyone, - taxis , noveau drivers & those on a budget would either purchase this or the Civic.
Obviously toyota.....because it means reliablity, and sturdiness.
A shame that the cost of the vehicle has shot up by 20% when the government should be supporting full hybrid vehicles. Definitely the smartest purchase, far superior than a C class or 3 series.
People's who prefer durability, comfort and technology invest ( buy ) in Toyota , last's for ages . A moving asset.
Such a bullet proof reliability...no other brand can offer such a luxury car with low maintenance cost...
Japanese cars are way more reliable and fail proof than german cars. Toyota engines are best in class and never fail.
No only toyota is reliable

False. VW focuses more on safety and mileage too. I drive a polo and I don’t think any other car has better braking system than a Polo. VW metal is quite hard.
@@rushabranawat anectodal
@@rushabranawat but toyotas tas are used in war zones around the world but gean cars aren't used. Why?
Insane price in India lol, this car costed me 30k AUD in Australia I.e 15 lacs if converted to INR
43% tax nothing to do thats why 37L in India
@@sathyanarayanans7449 this is a very ordinary car here and widely used.
These units have proven their endurance by taking taxi duties in the middleeast. I've heared from cabbies that they hardly switch off engine, tyre change every 25 days etc. Yes, they run 24x7. I've seen myself outgoing model running strong after munching well over 500k in less than 3 years. Hands down option unless Toyota took shortcuts on Indian units.
baghyaraj m that's true,
I drive a 2015 cmry it has 180k miles on it and still drives as new, hands down best sendan
I have been driving this car as a taxi for over a year in Australia, I can say it has been the best car I've ever driven uptil now.
One of the best and reliable car money can buy. Toyota is known for making quality products. I own a Toyota Camry and drives smooth as silk even after 13 years. Low maintenance is another key factor to buy this car.
Camry is good or accord
I don't this badge doesn't have the cloud.. well it might not have the luxury element.. bt what this Toyota badge has, none of audi, bmw or merc has that.. the bulletproof reliability.. thumbs up for Toyota & best of luck for camry..
Abir Kumar Bardhan exactly
When you are paying that much money there are many things matter firsr other than reliability. The cars won't break down, some electronics break, but they have been improved.
I would never buy useless Easily Worn out Germans over Japenese... Because Toyota is name of reliability and commuting not toy like MERC and bm
@@unclsam6798 i would go with non hybrid Camry theay are pretty reliable vehicles Or Lexus It is Toyota underneath... Of course you're paying money for luxury name..... Like Merc or bm(which are pretty unreliable machines and just toys in my frank opinion)
The down side to buying a Camry is the resale value. Sell this car in a couple of years an you are looking at a big loss, unlike the other german/swedish rivals, this doesnt retain value. Indianism maxed out! Unfortunate but it is what it is!
that is shot in ramoji film city in hyderabad
I’m using this Car Camry 2018 in USA . Awesome one :)
XSE V6?
It is so wise choice to not include turbo charge it is Very long lasting engline and known for Reliability
I'd choose the Skoda Superb or Volkswagen Passat rather than Camry.
Also, No Android Auto or Apple carplay in a Premium Sedan? Why do company take the customers for granted?
Comparing the cheaper Skoda Octavia RS with this Camry, the Skoda shines!
What points are you comparing ? Octavia RS stands absolutely no chance against Camry in terms of any practical performance. They both are of two different segments. Speaking of infotainment...yes it's a shame Toyota couldn't get it straight but it equalises it with better insensitives for the passenger backseat which cars in that segment don't do normally.
Bavant Malraj you have to sacrifice bulletproof reliability in Skoda
its hybrid though
Of course if you're into toys..... Germans make great cars but hey They are unreliable complicated vehicles
Because Camry owner would be the one who spent his time on back seat as Passenger as owner would have driver..... In india specific this is driver's car and company target those customers... And in 9 out of 10 it is the case
A very pleasant commentary and an excellent review. He didn't mention how Toyota has a much better reputation for realibilty than the German marques.
I'm imagining the heat of India and hoping the climate control works well?
I am so happy because we are the part of Toyota family
That’s Ramoji Film City...
Request you to do a comparison between Skoda superb vs Toyota Camry.. waiting for your response ..
The car now looks like the NASCAR Toyota Camry! Love it!!!!
This car definitely beats the Audi A4, BMW 3-series and the Mercedes C-Class as far as VFM goes. Indian government has put so much taxes on the luxury brands that it's practically stupid to buy the entry level cars from Merc, BMW and Audi. I will definitely buy a car from this segment if not the Camry.
Toyota updated it well. Waiting for comparison videos
Skoda Superb is still the best car in this segment, classy, luxurious and elegant
Hi bro, Nice car review , it's excelent car , i really love this car , tq for this car review , jai Toyota 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Skoda superb is arguably still the best car of the segment
best car of world the toyota
i just love this brand😍
Everything is so nice.
Except the central console .
It's an eyesore .
The skoda has such a classy and elegant one.
But apart from that it is a beast
Hi Gaven another very good review from you.The way u speak about it is phenomenal, car is practical easy to drive,it's a car for those who like to drive around as well as driven around.after ur Urus review I like this review very much.Keep Rocking,keep doing what ur doing Always ROCKSSS....🤟🤟🤟👍👍👍👍
Looks Superb stabilty control during speed.
It's looking much more elegant 😘
I saw this shoot in ramoji film city i was there
Toyota Camry 😘😍👏💐
The Non-hybrid version will be the best option if the price is less.
2019 you don't get that i guess
Non-hybrid versions are available, not in India. If you ain't that guy who is not fuel-conscious, get the 3.5L V6 which produces 301 HP.
The thing is the Camry is more of a futuristic sedan now than an elegant premium saloon. It has got lot of potential and the looks are sharp, but the problem is that at a price of 40 lakh, it really doesn’t outshine the German competitors. The government needs to cut down on hybrid tax and actually provide a rebate. Indian government needs to learn a thing or two from the Middle East. If the Camry comes down to 30-33 lakhs it would be a perfect fit.
Am I the only one to get little Lexus feel from this car's exterior?!!!🤔
Yes
Zeel Surani Lexus are expensive Toyotas so..
That chrome strip on the front grill seems like a moustacehe.
camry is the best car in the segment i have ever seen in my life
After 30 lakh mark there are SUVs like Fortuner, Endeavour, Kodiaq. So I think people will go for those. And if they absolutely want a sedan there are options like Audi A3, Mercedes CLA, Volvo S60.
I have heard that BMWs and Audi's spend more time in service center than on roads. And if a person wants to buy a sedan why would he or she buy an SUV even if the price is the same?
Cant beat the toyota... But between the toyotas... Comes the corolla♥️
What about it's performance on water logged road?
After fortuner and inova toyota finaly comes with something great..❤️
German cars … superb for 1-2 years , Toyota - Japanese manufactured making sure the car is highly reliable and run for years.
Please review the new 2019 Range Rover evogue I am already drooling for it though I know it’s not yet launched in India
Toyota is for Reliability always. German cars stand for their driving dynamics and high luxury
But yeah it was gr8 😍😍
waiting for Toyota Corolla Altis facelift
How much does it run on electric?
So what is the MPG? Or kilometres Per litre?
The bumper grill looks like the car has teeth braces 🙄
🤣🤣
Haha
@@harjeev98 you're right! And that's why I booked a silver variant and believe me it's gorgeous.
Most of Taxis in Dubai UAE 🇦🇪 are Camrys but still they are popular in Middle East not only in US
toyota camry vs skoda superb
Superb wins bcz of performance, build quality, dsg gearbox and top end diesel costs 6 lakhs less with more features.
Camry
No no
2019 Toyota Avalon Limited V6 vs 2019 Nissan Maxima Platinum w/ Reserve Package vs 2019 Kia Cadenza SX-L vs Skoda Superb
@@unclsam6798 but cvt is more reliable than a dsg/dct rest everything you wrote is on point.
Does it have Android auto and apple carplay
Just wow.. Quite beautiful than older boring camrys.. From outside and inside.. But what about the sports version with red interior? I saw that in other review by a foreign youtuber( this ain't your dad's camary)
You must have seen the North American-spec 2018 Toyota Camry XSE 3.5L V6 (301 HP). Far better than the one we get in India.
Last accord hybrid was really good but sadly did not sell much
I must see how you review on the new BMW X4 😍🔥
Here you go : th-cam.com/video/i0thPsaP0WY/w-d-xo.html
I didn't get a chance to drive it, but my colleague Shapur came away quite impressed.
A superb vs camry comparison would be wonderful
Will it give competition to accord?
Nice review Gavin bro 👍👍, I seriously waiting to see you to review on the All new India bound Honda Civic, on Feb/march.....
Cheers man! Hopefully I'll get the chance to do that one :)
Cost of manufacturing a Camry is 20k USD, and priced 80k USD, it's a loot.
Is it a rear wheel drive
It will do wonder to those owner who want low fuel expenses and luxury along with it. Toyota is known for it's reliability. But Price is a problem. If we ignore it. Then it is a car to go for it.
where can I get this Camry old model spares
Another level 🔥
I live in nz and have driven the Camry quite a few times while traveling out of town and renting a car. It's a good car to cruise around in the city..but is horrible on curvy roads and just feels like a big boat....think that had got to do a lot with its suspensions....
Is this place Ramoji Film City?
Karnataka registered test drive car in Ramoji Film City.. Interesting..
Location is Ramoji Film City
Pls compare it with superb
But it's nice you get good featured
if it had a better screen and a way cheaper diesel engine, this would sell like hot cakes. the shape & exterior are really eye catching.
It does undercut the price of the Germans... But.. It's a Toyota... It will easily outlast any of the German luxury cars by a great mile.
toyata is for trust , quality which no other brand can provide
I'm buying this car very soon..
Do the front or back seats have massagers??
& does it also have a bath tub and a flat bed too ?
I have this car. Toyota is simply the best.It starts from 37 lakhs.
Where is this location?
tiago xe option or wagon r vxi
What is the price??
Price bro
where is this location in karnataka. exact location
My favourite car
Great car
23 kpl with 2.5 L petrol..... Damn!!!
It gives 17 on highway and 14 in city. Reality is different.
thats because of hybrid tech...if it's pure petrol engine,it will give less than 15 km/l
The new accord pls
I might prefer the 3.5l XSE V6 which has 301 hp that rockets off the line from 0-60 in 5.7 sec
Unfortunately India does not get that engine 🙄
It also rockets off the fuel full indication to low in just few seconds.LoL
Do India have roads for such a speed? Only few expressways and people don't drive sane.
Mileage?
Is this a DCT
is that place ramoji film city Hyderabad ?
There have a lot of instances of airbags not inflating in Toyota cars in India be it the etios, fortuner or innova. So much banter about reliability of the brand here. I'd say the airbag not being reliable is a huge concern.
I would like Toyota to step up the infotainment system
Apple carplay option in camry is available in many countries why not india
Ismail S.M because it's India
Adding that feature will push the car's price to 50 lksh...
So you Shot At Ramoji Studios
this car looks good...but wait for all new accord which looks stunning...both of them are available in middle-east a long ago.
How can I join autocar india
location kidhar ka hai
Pls compare Camry and superb
Good car well done Toyota
I'd buy this over any entry level luxury car brand like Audi and merc but new 3-series is just better
Is it having sunroof
It has sunroof
Yes ..new camry has Moon Roof
