Toyota needs to stop being hardheaded and give us the XSE hybrid!!!! No Excuses!!!
The XSE hybrid would be fantastic and frankly badass! Thanks for being a loyal follower Proper! Jeff
Is finally released for 2021 the Hybrid XSE
One thing that bothers me to no end is why did Toyota only reserve the lighter and more power dense Lithium-Ion battery for the cheaper LE (and gets great MPG) while the more expensive SE & XLE only get the older Nickel-metal Hydride battery. Take a look at the Accord Hybrid, Sonata Hybrid, Fusion Hybrid & Malibu Hybrid and they ALL use Li-Ion batteries across the board, regardless of trim level.
I mean, look at all the pure electric cars or Plug-in hybrids out there - ALL of them from the Nissan Leaf to the Tesla Model X use Li-Ion batteries. Even Toyota is not exempt - the uplevel Prius & Prius Prime all utilize Li-Ion batteries. So why cheap out for the Camry Hybrid?
"According to Prius chief engineer Shoichi Kaneko, in an interview this past week at the LA Auto Show, most of Toyota’s current hybrid lineup are capable of easily trading off between the two battery types for one chief reason: flexibility. In being compatible with either one, the company can more smoothly react at a factory or vehicle level to supply shortages or price pinches-for raw materials like lithium or nickel, for instance."
@@jean-phil Okay that is good explanation. Now answer the question Trades46 asked. Why Li-Ion only for the lower trim :)
Because nickel is better reliable - stable through time & in large changes of temperatures, than lithium.
Also, when needs to be changed with new battery pack ,is much cheaper.
@@SilverIndian Thank you for explaining this :)
This guy is amazing!! I should drive to Raleigh and buy one from this guy.
Sean Talt Thanks Sean that’s a huge compliment!!
I would go for the XLE Hybrid. It looks amazing!
Good call there Xavier! The XLE is definitely a great ride and looks very classy too. Jeff
I NEEDED THIS COMPARISON!!! 💯 Thank you Sir!!
You're amazing..you made it easy for me to understand all the parkages of camry 2018 both hybrid and non hybrid. I wish SE hard everything that XLE has or XLE had SE sportier and aggressive look. Am soo confused which one to pick coz am that type of a person who wants sportier looking car with high end fully loaded interior..Hopefully XSE is on the way!
red interior please for hybrids...guess i'll wait until 2020, hopefully SE hybrid will have new batteries
All your info is so cool
Thank you so much!!
Are you sure that the XLE has synthetic leather? Toyota’s website says it has regular leather. I actually want the SofTex.
Nice comparison.
lithium-ion battery on LE
, nickel-metal hydride battery on XLE AND SE
What is the difference between the two types of battery life and fuel consumption?
Has Toyota consider making a CAMRY HYBRID XSE V6? Or at least a Camry Hybrid XSE with the Quad Exhausts, also with the Two Tone Color with the Black Roof Top, and the nicer rims of the XSE? Now that's a Camry Hybrid that I would buy over an Accord Hybrid in a Heart Beat.
Please let me know if this is something that Toyota has Considered.
Why I don’t see a lot of Camry Hybrid in dealership lot because I went last week with my wife and they told me they don’t get them a lot from Toyota? Do you have any idea why?
Ahmad Al Ameer not as many people choose the hybrid over the gasoline version so Toyota doesn’t make as many. Plus they sell very quickly. I suspect that is why...jeff
@@Toyotajeff your first part of the answer contradicts the second part of the answer. They sell quickly but not many people choose hybrid. I am confused
@@sudhirraomthe people that want hybrids get them straight away. We’re seeing that now with EVs.
Does the hybrid Camry uses more gasoline than the standard Camry
Does the 2018 Camry hybrid have the newe pedestrian warning sound from the 2019 Rav4 Hybrid or the old sound from the 3rd gen Prius?
Is Toyota making the hybrid AWD too?
SE oooo yes
I have the SE hybrid only because Toyota does not have an XSE hybrid.
I am considering upgrading from my 16 Camry Hybrid. How many mpgs do you average? When you fill up, how many miles of driving range do you get? I see on the 18 and up Camry Hybrids, the tank size is 13 gallons. Mine said 17 but the most ever put into my car was like 15.5. Sorry for so many questions. Thank You!!
Ok
I have just bought Toyota Camry Hybrid LE without package. However I like Lane Assist and new style Rear view mirror with homelink & compass. Are these items available as Plug & Play style from Toyota Services?
I want an XLE with a lithium ion battery
John Dooris I wish it was possible. Toyota decided not to put the lithium ion battery in the other trim levels because with so much equipment it raised the weight and it wouldn’t have helped the gas mileage as much as with just the LE trim level

I want Toyota engine in Honda accord body. Is it possible? I like how Camry rides and how new honda accord looks.
nice
Glad you watched the video Mainman! Have a great rest of your week and thanks for being part of my channel's community! Jeff
I'm torn. My husband just got the honda accord hybrid. It's pretty neat with Apple car play. I like a few things better on the camry (360 camera!) but I just don't know if that outweighs apple carplay. Whyyyyy must Toyota be so hard headed
L Smith Thanks so much for writing! I suggest you check out the 2019 Camry. Every trim level comes standard with Apple CarPlay!!! Please subscribe to my channel...I’m doing a trim level comparison of the 2019 Camry in a couple weeks!!! Jeff
That is my exact dilemma. The Camry's interior looks cheap compared to the accord, but the thr accords exterior is hideous, no 360 camera and the audio system sucks.....
@@Toyotajeff what about Android Auto?? Doesn't Toyota realize half of population use android?? It's a software it's easy to implement why aren't they using it??
@@Redmaile25 true! Honda's looked amazing in 90's compare to everything else, they had the best styling now they make the ugliest styling you can possibly see in a car. Even Koreans look way better, they really need new designers and a complete new overhaul of style.
L Smith I’m torn between those two right now as well. Is the mileage in the accord as reliable as they say? (47mpg?)
The xle v6 is soooo much nicer
The seats lack adequate padding & the LE's seats are just cheap cloth.
Le wheel covers suck.
