For most people, yes. The Camry Hybrid's long term running costs and reliability are easily the best. There are a few edge cases where a non-hybrid previous gen Camry would be a better choice: 1. People who don't drive often or only short trips. (The hybrid doesn't heat up the oil and exhaust enough to prevent fuel dilution and potential reliability/ corrosion issues) 2. Very cold weather areas. Hybrid fuel efficiency plummets in temps below freezing as the battery can't charge quickly. 3. People who consistently drive long distances above 75mph on flat land. The hybrid system rarely has the chance to regenerate power to the battery or run in EV mode. MPG will be little better than the gas only version.
It was a perfect move for them on this model. People buy Camrys to hustle people around efficiently. They're not sports cars nor are they work vehicles or offroad eventure vehicles. They're there to efficiently and reliably move people on streets. That's why it was the right move. Now I do wish they would have made the 12" gauge cluster standard across all trims. Still, I'm super stoked you can get the heated steering wheel on all of them. Personally, I love a heated steering wheel way more than heated seats.
Absolutely! I have an EV and love it, but I see that they've reached market saturation, but Toyota has a waitlist for almost every vehicle, mostly hybrids and they're leading the industry in sales. They were right about hybrids and when you think about how many hybrids or PHEVs you can make off one EV, the impact can be exponential while eliminating range anxiety. It's like we're racing to an ideal future of all electric without the infrastructure (electric grids and charging stations) without considering any "waypoints" that are necessary and logical. The future may even be hydrogen! I don't know for sure, but I would be a Camry Prime in a heartbeat if I could.
This comparison highlights a common mistake by auto journalists: their selfish obsession with testing the top trims. There should've been a review of the mid-level volume trims (Sonata SEL vs Camry LE/SE vs Accord EX-L) which are more attainable for those of us interested in hybrids. I'd even bet they would've been ranked differently.
I'd say the biggest mistake they all make is they all harp on so hard about performance and handling for a family sedan you're going to use to drive to work in rush hour traffic and get groceries. Like no one picks a hybrid Carmy to "beat the car next to you" like the reviewer implies lol.
That’s not always the case. Many top trends are tested because they have everything the manufacturer can put in the cars. Also, many times it’s the best selling model. So let’s think about what we’re saying before we say it
He thinks the Prius looks better. Sure, the new Prius looks better than previous ones, but to say it looks better than all the other cars on the road is where I draw the line.
@@battlefield3112011 nobody wants the new Accord. When the last generation came out, people were rushing to go get them. Even as it sits now the 22-23s are holding their value. It was a huge mistake to get rid of that powertrain and transmission.
Yeah he was super annoying. I'm so tired of journalists treating mainstream mid sized sedans like sports car. The sonata rides soft and that's what people like. Luckily the accord and camry are able to balance ride and handling for those who want that
Journalists have ruined cars. They’ll bag on anything that is a smooth comfortable ride, which is what most people want, and they’ll praise cars with no sidewall tires that can corner and grip but give you a terrible jarring ride and cost a fortune to replace. These are family vehicles and not sports cars.
A lot of people aren't thrilled with the new Accord's appearance, but personally, I like it a lot. Reminds me of Audi A4,A5, A6 understatement. To me, it is elegant and appealing. Some commenters are ridiculing discussion of acceleration and handling in a hybrid review. Why? Just because we want to save at the pump and help the environment doesn’t mean we stop caring about having FUN FUN FUN.🎉
For me I don’t really care about driving dynamics, so the Sonata would be perfect for me. Best MPGs plus the most well rounded technology in the segment. I’ll wait another year to see if any transmission/oil issues rise up before I buy, however.
For me the new accord is just a liiiitle bit too dialed down looks-wise. It's like they wanted to design a car whose picture would show up in the dictionary if you had to look up what a car looked like. To be fair this was my gripe with a lot of the old Camry design as well.
I bought a ‘23 Sonata Hybrid but I wanted to get the Accord. But on the Accord, no panoramic sunroof, no Sirius (you have to run it through your phone) and no heated steering wheel. But it has heated rear seats ( that will never get used). As for reliability, I have had two Sonata Hybrids a 21 and ‘23, totaling 85k miles and have had nothing to take it to dealer to fix. It burns no oil between oil changes and on long trips, none of my passengers has been able to tell when it transitions between electric and gas.
I feel the same way about the Accord. It's beautiful to me and what I want a car of this class to look like. It's a mid-size family hauler that can second as a commuter car after all. My parents were Gen Xers who were modest and drove modest-looking 90s Toyotas and Hondas that I grew up in, and this car looks pretty faithful to that era of Japanese minimalism. People complain it looks like an updated 90s Accord and that's exactly what I find endearing about it. The other two look like Pokemon to me and lack continuity with their predecessors. But looks are subjective, and athletic flair with extra angles is very trendy in car design right now so the Accord will fall short to many. The lack of period-specific gimmicks will make the Honda age the best once the trend goes past us.
@@naveenthemachinedon't u think even for a second that u r making yourself sooo miserable and pitiful on internet😂😂😂😂 Your name shines in my list of the most stupid people i have come across the internt in my entire life😂😂😂
@@naveenthemachine Like I said nobody believes you anymore as everybody already know that regardless of what Toyota makes you just hate and conflict. A car is not just about Chassis and Suspension. And in fact, I'm hearing very good feedback about the updated suspension, better driving dynamics and handling in the 2025 Camry. Stop hating.
The Camry is: 1. not really new 2. tight in the back 3. doesn't handle as good as the Accord Yet it wins this comparo. Personally I would go for the Accord. Life is to short not to.
1. the accord isn't all new either, its a heavy refresh like the camry. 2. Yes the accord is more roomy in the back, but new camry is not tight at all in the back. 3. have you driven the new camry? It handles just as good, if not better than the accord. Even other journalists have said the same thing
The accord lacks some very basic features in any trim other than the touring. It’s also kinda fugly. The Toyota hybrid set up is far superior and way more proven. Accord will last half as long
This puzzles me. For me, the Sonata beats both the Camry and Accord in the looks department let alone the fuel efficiency which most buyers put it on top of their list for this segment. The shifter alone stand out since I think its revolutionary and tucked in so it gives more space for other things in the center. Aside from being slower and not as sporty, what am I missing? Update: Car Confection scored Sonata: 8.5 and the Accord: 5.
I’m not even looking to buy a car, but Clint was so engaging, I watched the entire video. You’ve got genuine talent, Clint. If and when I am in the market for a car, I will make a point of looking for your videos.
I have a 2020 Sonata hybrid--the base Blue trim--and at least so far (~46k miles, still a young car)--I've had no issues, and multiple dealers have been decent (albeit slow during the pandemic era). It's luck of the draw for every car, but I'm averaging 49mpg (self-calculated, over the last 25k miles). Which--how did Edmunds not talk about their own fuel economy results on a bunch of HYBRID commuter cars; really makes me wonder just how much these three were driven for the video. I haven't driven either of the other two (I did test drive--and really quite like--a '20 Accord hybrid, I just liked the Sonata's styling more...don't @ me), but I'd bet for most people buying these cars, fuel economy and purchase price are the leading considerations.
I’m a fan of the Accord Hybrid powertrain which is more like an electric car, especially since it doesn’t have a planetary gear or belt driven CVT. But beyond that, I’d have a hard time choosing between Camry and Accord. Great work Toyota and Honda!
I’d have to drive it, heard it’s fairly punchy at low speeds, but heard it’s not super great in terms of efficiency especially when speeds increase like on sustained highway drives.
How is Honda more like an electric? Has something changed recently I missed? Its got clutches and connects and disconnects, very unlike a EV. It actually has a few real 'gear' shifts along with a few simulated ones. It feels more normal to drive like an old fashioned automatic, but is more complex than Toyota's. Toyota's ecvt planetary gear system is much more closer to an EV feeling to me... its pure mechanical and always attached, and its much much simpler and less likely to have problems.
@@AyaWetts Hondas are serial hybrids. The vast majority of the time there is no physical connection between the gas engine and the wheels. The engine drives a generator that powers the traction motor which is direct drive like an electric car and charges the battery. At highway speeds the electric two motors can be clutched together which effectively is the engine driving the wheels. But that is only at steady speeds for efficiency. It is mostly an electric car in this sense but with a gas engine that generates electricity for the motor that drives the wheels. There is ZERO shifting since there is no transmission. The car just simulates it to make it feel like a traditional transmission and even then it is only when you get on it. It's actually pretty impressive. I have a hybrid CR-V which has the same setup as the Accord but the CR-V can also clutch the motors together at slower speeds around town.
Sorry I loved the Sonata. It's the best design inside and out. Also, the cheapest too with the best gas mileage and technology. Can't beat that in my opinion. Lexus/Toyota have the annoying eyes on the road beeping all over the place. Quirky systems and technology that is clumsy. Honda is great for lawnmowers and generators.
Finally, a real world comparison with all of the competitors. Previously, on paper, the Camry seemed to be the fastest car with significant better fuel economy. Some also stated that Camry was the better driving car. However, that doesn’t seem to be the case now.
I saw a video where the 2025 Camry clocked 0-60 in 7 seconds with grown ups sitting inside. With a lone driver going 0-60, Camry will probably clock a time of under 7 seconds.
@@wilbryest did Savagegesse compare the Accord and Camry both at the same time? If not, I don’t want to watch. It’s easy to say one car is better than the other when the other car isn’t there for you to drive back to back.
Finally, Toyota takes the crown!! Great job Toyota and great review by the way. Currently looking at the Camry SE here in Canada. I think it has the most value. There is no LE here, so you get the Camry SE with 16 inch tires which is perfect for my long highway commutes. Eff the 18 inch rim option. Made that mistake when I purchased my 13 Accord Sport manual with 18-inch rims.
Well done Clint, I enjoy watching your reviews among the others. I would choose the Accord over th Camry, on the one fact that it accels better and I’m not a fan of the Camry.
I'd take the Accord. I like its cleaner design, inside and out. Everyone says the Accord looks too dowdy and they love the expressiveness of the Camry's design, but when i've seen then side by side, the Accord looks better, IMO. The Camry, like almost all Lexus and Toyotas now, is trying too hard. I thought the Sonata's refresh would be a homerun, but the design just feels conflicted. And I thoroughly prefer the Accord driving experience. It really is above its weight class. And Accord isn't "hybrid-only" as the description states. They still offer the lower-end ICE.
@@ju4121 What exactly did I make an assumption about? I talked about the Camry's design which is right in front of your eyes. I made no comment on how the Camry drives, only how impressed I was with the Accord's driving dynamics.
The accord design will age better visually imo. If your buying to own long term this will matter. The 2013 Sonata was edgy for it's time but no way it can be called a good lucker in 2024.
Lol! "Millennial grey." "I don't feel that I just took an Ambien when I'm looking at a Camry." I love fake exhaust ports: great place to stash ... oops. TMI. I would buy a hybrid Camry.
My only problem is that the nu Camry will be sold @ MSRP and above...the prior generation has for the past two years...the nu Accord/Sonata are already available with a Discount...I see that as real Value. If the Toyota market makes the "Real People pricing Adjustment"...then maybe it would be a true Winner😎...in today's economy we all are trying to save as much money as possible😄food for thought.
This comment is BS. Honda never gives discounts. Sometimes they do small incentives, but you’re not going into any Honda dealer and receiving 1,000’s off an Accord.
For such cars, i would like to know about their comfort in terms of suspension damping and sound insulation. I wouldn’t care too much about driving dynamics. Next time please cover that area by measuring interior sound levels and give us your opinion on seat and suspension comfort levels between the three. Thank you
@@jbjb9691yeah as I’ve gotten older the most important things to me are smooth ride and quiet. I’m in my early 60s and though my body is in good shape for my age I’m just not interested in sportiness and performance like I used to be.
With the fastback rooflines and small trunk openings and having to reach deep inside to get something, I'm sad that none of these are offered as 5-door/hatchbacks.
I am so glad you are doing this review because I just ordered the Camry. I have been through 2012 and now 2016 Sonata Hybrid. They are great in driving feel because of the regular 6 speed transmission but I kept getting hybrid error that come on and off. With 110,000km, the vehicle sometimes refused to start after a long drive. For that, it has to rest for 15 minutes before it agrees to start work again. I am so looking forward to the new Camry especially it comes with AWD and reliability.
You could of had a bad 12v battery and Hyundai hybrids have a jump start button that uses the electricity from the hybrid battery to start the vehicle.
The Accord you can purchase it much lower than the list price. Good luck with the Camry with their Suggested Retail Price (SRP) and the extra distributor and dealer add ons. You will pay north of $40k for the XSE. An Accord Touring can be picked up for $35k.
I told myself I don't want another Honda but the inside of the new one is so beautiful. There are 4 hondas in my driveway. Accord (2017), Civic (2004), CRV (2006), Pilot (2020).
As a mechanic let me tell you the truth honda and toyota got stuck in the past hyundai easy to fix more warranty for motor and transmission and in the 2015 the sonata limited has all the technology that honda and toyota has right now
The Accord is pretty new as well and those two models, i.e. the Camry and Accord, have always been neck and neck, so expecting one of them to blow the other out of the water is unreasonable.
I think the Sonata still wins out, mpg wins, looks inside and outside. Only ride and speed, don't need those for a commuter sedan, traffic ain't moving any faster.
I'd still go Sonata... I have a 19 2.0T, and with a different interior color, you can't beat the features, efficiency, and luxurious feeling inside, plus it looks so dang good... as for the handling okay its not the best, but is anyone seriously throwing down with a midsize hybrid sedan??
The Hybrid Sonata is the most boring model so makes sense its the worse of this comparison but the SEL and N-Line packages makes the Sonata a way fucking better choice when regarding non-hybrid packages for the Camry and Accord...Sonata hands down wins if they did a review for the SEL/N-Line comparison to Camry and Accord...Sonata has alot of safety upgrades, wireless phone charger, 2 c-type charging ports, even two 12V ports for the dinosaurs, when in cruise control the car drives itself and brakes and speeds up when necessary, auto front & rear breaking, panoramic sunroof, Bose stock sound system, leather and suede interior, the interior looks way better than the other two here...but I guess we're talking Hybrid so Camry has more power of the two the only advantage I see but the front exterior looks like shit to compare to the Accord and Sonata...Sonata definitely fixed the exterior ...the 2020-2023 Sonata looked like shit but the 2024 wayyy fucking better..Thank you Hyundai...the Accord looks good too except the rear not so much a fan and they did not make a turbo charge engine 🤔 Anyways, Sonata still a game changer and getting way more features for your wallet
Great review and fair from everything I seen. I also recently drove the new Camry and the best thing is how seamless electric to gas is. That is HUGE! I like the looks much more than either of the other choices too. Now, I just need to be able to find one!
Listing the complete score sheet would have been helpful. I have a 22 Sonata, it had wireless car play, the ride is smooth and quiet 🤷🏾♂️. Pretty interesting the most efficient hybrid with the lowest price ranked last.
HYUNDAI = OWNERSHIP NIGHTMARE!! The high voltage battery in my 2017 Sonata PHEV died under warranty when the car was only four years old with 42,000 miles. Hyundai refused to repair or replace the battery under warranty. I had to go through non lemon law arbitration to have the vehicle repurchased, which I won easily. However, Hyundai then decided to miscalculate the repurchase amount and attempted to underpay me by $2000.00. This forced me to go through arbitration a second time, which I won (again). The whole process took 18 months…No loaner. If you own a Hyundai…Sell that piece of crap while you can…
Ok, so which one is the most comfortable to drive and which one feels the best well put together inside. I mean this are not sports cars, we have to stop treating them like they are 😅.
I test drove all of them. Comfort is within splitting hairs with each other, and all very comfortable and non factor. Accord is more torquey at lower speed while the Camry has slightly more passing power. Sonata looses out a bit more to those two but still completely fine. In terms of features, Camry and Sonata are a bit more generous. Accord does win on space though. In terms of fit and finish, accord and sonata seems comparatively good, while the Camry seems a bit bad(first batch of new cars tough, maybe it will get better). I will say they are all very good now and just work on finding the best deal.
I guess gas mileage will depend on how the vehicle is spec'd. Consumer Reports got 47 mpg with the Camry and 44 mpg with the Sonata. Oh, and 40 mpg with the Accord.
@@lancemannion4113 He owns a Sonata and knows it's trash and is trying to appease himself..🤣😂🤣 THAT'S WHAT ALL OF THOSE DO THAT OWNS THOSE JUNK BRANDS.. LMAO 🤣😂 🤣😂
Agree 100%. Also, the interior looks fresh. Accord is okay but it's been like this for a while. Camry from the front just looks like Prius on steroids, I don't wanna drive a taxi
The Edmunds website says the 25 Camry 0-60 is 7.8 seconds. If so, thats surprisingly slow and almost a full second slower than the Accord. (The Edmunds website has an error - it says that the Camry is slightly faster than the Accord but that is incorrect). So even though the Camry might look sportier than the Accord, according to this review the Accord is the better driving and handling vehicle and is noticeably faster than the Camry. I think the main reason the Camry scored higher than the Accord is that many features are limited to the Touring in the Accord and not necessarily because the Camry is the better car.
Throttle House put new Camry vs Accord on drag strip and Camry easily won both from standstill and from rolling (30mph or something). Both cars were much slower than previous gen V6 Accord, though
Old folks at the retirement home love this review! 😊 My 82 year old grandpa said he’d buy the Camry, but they took his drivers license away. 😢 These are great cars! If it was 2003. 😢 Camry- Topgun old people granny mobile. If I was 80+ I’d buy it!🥇
Well then buy it now and have it when you are 80 becauseit will last you that long. I have a 2022 TRD and it's far from an old person car. I do say I hate the fact they killed the TRD line of camry as well as the v6.
Love the new Camry but I prefer the interior of the Accord.. The Camry's dashboard looks chunky like the 90s continental.. the type of my grandpa's used to drive.
Good review, but what's the matter with some sidewall around the wheel on the Sonata? I'd rather have some additional sidewall to be honest. Some wheels are just too large.
It makes it "less sporty" and more comfortable. You'll be able to feel the road a lot less in the sonata than the other two in all likelihood, but it won't handle corners like the other two will. Personally, I would rather have the comfort, but I'm probably older than the reviewer, so I value that kind of thing.
@@cmac1100 I live in Canada sot he roads are long and straight. I'm not saying handling doesn't matter but I'm not dealing with European streets corners here. It's a shame Hyundai pulled the Sonata hybrid from the Canadian market. I hope they bring it back with the 2025
I think you are ignoring the rest of the range for the sonata. It's the only one that comes with different engine options, an available panoroof and 360 camera plus the blind spot cameras. Seems weird to ignore the amount of features available and only focus on the hybrid because the other ones don't have other options. The Sonata also has an awd option.
The comment about now being able to overtake other cars in the new Camry is cute but clueless since the previous model was offered with a V6 that could blow the doors off most sedans on the road.
with how you guys trashed the Hyundai so badly, how did you ever think it was your favorite? Sure the Accord and Camry may have gotten better, but you described the Sonata as pretty much trash, and not just trash relative to the Honda and Toyota. Just plain trash.
It's typical spiel from the auto journalist playbook to trash the oldest model in comparison tests (except Car & Driver when comparing nearly anything against a Honda or BMW).
I pick Honda Accord Anyone? Currently I owned Accord Hybrid 2019 Touring trim is excellent vehicle, comfortable, drive well , and 5 stars reliable. I got average 46 to 49 MPG
I have a 2024 Sonata. No idea what he's talking about when he says it's loud lol. All the rest sounded the same in the video. The only one I didn't test drive is the Camry.
Perhaps, but sounds like the Sonata trails the other when actually driving. All three are going to be within a small margin though so really depends on someone’s preference with aesthetics, touch points and subtle differences in driving dynamics.
@@ALMX5DPthat seems true, it just also seems like the things people in the market for an affordable midsize hybrid sedan would care about would be things like the interior quality and comfort as well as real world gas mileage rather than how quick or sporty of a driving experience is. I prefer driving experience so none of these are on my list, but if I were in the market for a car to sit in traffic or cruise the highway I would probably pick the nicest interior to do it in
@@BigDunker345 true, I think it would depend on the type of driving and geographic area. Places like the Midwest may not highlight any deficits in handing or ride as much as west coast mountain roads would so it could be seen as a benefit even in some situations and combined with more modern feeling interior definitely a solid choice for many with its great fuel efficiency.
Camry is head and shoulders above the others. More flexible and fixable power train, excellent performance, terrific economy. Space wise: why would a Toyota buyer choose the Crown over a Camry? The latter has more cabin and luggage room, costs over $10 k less. Should’ve kept the Avalon.
This is great! Everyone is going to run out and get the new Camry, while I shop for the older Camrys that have a lot less technology and will be around a lot longer at a lower price. Win-Win.
Great comparison! I love the Accord and Camry! Personally, I think I'll take the Accord though. We can all agree that the Camry is the best looking of all 3 cars. The Accord's got a simpler/sleeker look. Not really a fan of the Sonata's styling. And also, this dude should do more reviews! I found this Edmunds video more enjoyable because of this dude.
The video was well presented and well made, but extremely frustrating that it only compared to top trims. Especially for people who are buying hybrids cuz they're trying to SAVE Money, a look at the lower trims and even the base models would be very useful.
Lets not forget that Toyota is kind enough to make you pay extra on top of the base MSRP for features that all come standard in the Sonata Hybrid Limited such as the Panoramic View Camera. This review totally glosses over all of the features that come with the Sonata and focuses solely on handling and acceleration of a...... hybrid sedan. The Sonata Hybrid has the most modern cabin of the three cars reviewed as well as some features not found on either the Accord or Camry such as the control of regen breaking levels.
I’m looking at the 2022 Camry xse and the 2022 accord touring right now really torn between both. I have seen half and half saying which they like better.
The seems to always be on the latest year/model. In this video you didn’t display the Accord Hybrid Touring, but showed the Camry XSE. Compare same levels to each other. 2024 Honda Accord Hybrid for the win - easy 👍🏻
Do you think Toyota made the right move making the Camry hybrid-only? Let us know what you think in the comments.
For most people, yes. The Camry Hybrid's long term running costs and reliability are easily the best.
There are a few edge cases where a non-hybrid previous gen Camry would be a better choice:
1. People who don't drive often or only short trips. (The hybrid doesn't heat up the oil and exhaust enough to prevent fuel dilution and potential reliability/ corrosion issues)
2. Very cold weather areas. Hybrid fuel efficiency plummets in temps below freezing as the battery can't charge quickly.

Still, I'm super stoked you can get the heated steering wheel on all of them. Personally, I love a heated steering wheel way more than heated seats.
Absolutely! I have an EV and love it, but I see that they've reached market saturation, but Toyota has a waitlist for almost every vehicle, mostly hybrids and they're leading the industry in sales. They were right about hybrids and when you think about how many hybrids or PHEVs you can make off one EV, the impact can be exponential while eliminating range anxiety. It's like we're racing to an ideal future of all electric without the infrastructure (electric grids and charging stations) without considering any "waypoints" that are necessary and logical. The future may even be hydrogen! I don't know for sure, but I would be a Camry Prime in a heartbeat if I could.
Where is kia k5 it should be compete in this comparison
Yes, and no.
This is why we’re not selling our 2007 Camry XLe with the V6 engine.

I bought a ‘23 Sonata Hybrid but I wanted to get the Accord. But on the Accord, no panoramic sunroof, no Sirius (you have to run it through your phone) and no heated steering wheel. But it has heated rear seats ( that will never get used). As for reliability, I have had two Sonata Hybrids a 21 and ‘23, totaling 85k miles and have had nothing to take it to dealer to fix. It burns no oil between oil changes and on long trips, none of my passengers has been able to tell when it transitions between electric and gas.
I feel the same way about the Accord. It's beautiful to me and what I want a car of this class to look like. It's a mid-size family hauler that can second as a commuter car after all. My parents were Gen Xers who were modest and drove modest-looking 90s Toyotas and Hondas that I grew up in, and this car looks pretty faithful to that era of Japanese minimalism. People complain it looks like an updated 90s Accord and that's exactly what I find endearing about it. The other two look like Pokemon to me and lack continuity with their predecessors. But looks are subjective, and athletic flair with extra angles is very trendy in car design right now so the Accord will fall short to many. The lack of period-specific gimmicks will make the Honda age the best once the trend goes past us.
Old design and classic
The Honda looks much more classier and looks higher end than the Camry.
Thank you Edmunds for not being biased. This is a great review for actually buyers (not just fanboys) to get a perspective of each vehicle.

The Camry is:
1. not really new
2. tight in the back
3. doesn't handle as good as the Accord
Yet it wins this comparo.
Personally I would go for the Accord. Life is to short not to.
dumb detected
1. the accord isn't all new either, its a heavy refresh like the camry.
2. Yes the accord is more roomy in the back, but new camry is not tight at all in the back.
3. have you driven the new camry? It handles just as good, if not better than the accord. Even other journalists have said the same thing
The accord lacks some very basic features in any trim other than the touring. It’s also kinda fugly. The Toyota hybrid set up is far superior and way more proven. Accord will last half as long
@@rallysauruswrex Accord always handles better than the Camry. Take a hard corner, Camry shows you why Toyotas are bland.

How about quietness?
@@Sashazur Pretty quiet! Would say more quiet than accord and last gen Camry!
This puzzles me. For me, the Sonata beats both the Camry and Accord in the looks department let alone the fuel efficiency which most buyers put it on top of their list for this segment. The shifter alone stand out since I think its revolutionary and tucked in so it gives more space for other things in the center. Aside from being slower and not as sporty, what am I missing?
Update: Car Confection scored Sonata: 8.5 and the Accord: 5.
You didn't miss anything. This guy (the host) is a Toyota fanboy LoL @@goochigoochs3836
I’m not even looking to buy a car, but Clint was so engaging, I watched the entire video. You’ve got genuine talent, Clint. If and when I am in the market for a car, I will make a point of looking for your videos.
I have a 2020 Sonata hybrid--the base Blue trim--and at least so far (~46k miles, still a young car)--I've had no issues, and multiple dealers have been decent (albeit slow during the pandemic era). It's luck of the draw for every car, but I'm averaging 49mpg (self-calculated, over the last 25k miles). Which--how did Edmunds not talk about their own fuel economy results on a bunch of HYBRID commuter cars; really makes me wonder just how much these three were driven for the video. I haven't driven either of the other two (I did test drive--and really quite like--a '20 Accord hybrid, I just liked the Sonata's styling more...don't @ me), but I'd bet for most people buying these cars, fuel economy and purchase price are the leading considerations.
I’m a fan of the Accord Hybrid powertrain which is more like an electric car, especially since it doesn’t have a planetary gear or belt driven CVT. But beyond that, I’d have a hard time choosing between Camry and Accord. Great work Toyota and Honda!
I’d have to drive it, heard it’s fairly punchy at low speeds, but heard it’s not super great in terms of efficiency especially when speeds increase like on sustained highway drives.
I'm shocked that how good the fake shifts sound in the Accord. If you don't know it, it downright sounds like a dct
@@abdullahbinshahid3199for real lol. I didn’t realize it was fake until reviewers mentioned it
How is Honda more like an electric? Has something changed recently I missed? Its got clutches and connects and disconnects, very unlike a EV. It actually has a few real 'gear' shifts along with a few simulated ones. It feels more normal to drive like an old fashioned automatic, but is more complex than Toyota's. Toyota's ecvt planetary gear system is much more closer to an EV feeling to me... its pure mechanical and always attached, and its much much simpler and less likely to have problems.
@@AyaWetts Hondas are serial hybrids. The vast majority of the time there is no physical connection between the gas engine and the wheels. The engine drives a generator that powers the traction motor which is direct drive like an electric car and charges the battery. At highway speeds the electric two motors can be clutched together which effectively is the engine driving the wheels. But that is only at steady speeds for efficiency. It is mostly an electric car in this sense but with a gas engine that generates electricity for the motor that drives the wheels. There is ZERO shifting since there is no transmission. The car just simulates it to make it feel like a traditional transmission and even then it is only when you get on it. It's actually pretty impressive. I have a hybrid CR-V which has the same setup as the Accord but the CR-V can also clutch the motors together at slower speeds around town.
Sorry I loved the Sonata. It's the best design inside and out. Also, the cheapest too with the best gas mileage and technology. Can't beat that in my opinion.
Lexus/Toyota have the annoying eyes on the road beeping all over the place. Quirky systems and technology that is clumsy.
Honda is great for lawnmowers and generators.
I'd go with the Accord at least for this year, but driving a vehicle is really important to so I would choose the accord..
Finally, a real world comparison with all of the competitors. Previously, on paper, the Camry seemed to be the fastest car with significant better fuel economy. Some also stated that Camry was the better driving car. However, that doesn’t seem to be the case now.
Camry drives the best now
I saw a video where the 2025 Camry clocked 0-60 in 7 seconds with grown ups sitting inside. With a lone driver going 0-60, Camry will probably clock a time of under 7 seconds.
you might want to watch savagegeese's review of the latest Camry.
@@wilbryest did Savagegesse compare the Accord and Camry both at the same time? If not, I don’t want to watch. It’s easy to say one car is better than the other when the other car isn’t there for you to drive back to back.
@@ibrahimbashir6634The video just said the Accord is the best driving and handling one?
Finally, Toyota takes the crown!! Great job Toyota and great review by the way. Currently looking at the Camry SE here in Canada. I think it has the most value. There is no LE here, so you get the Camry SE with 16 inch tires which is perfect for my long highway commutes. Eff the 18 inch rim option. Made that mistake when I purchased my 13 Accord Sport manual with 18-inch rims.
Takes the Crown and brings it to the US.
Well done Clint, I enjoy watching your reviews among the others. I would choose the Accord over th Camry, on the one fact that it accels better and I’m not a fan of the Camry.
I'd take the Accord. I like its cleaner design, inside and out. Everyone says the Accord looks too dowdy and they love the expressiveness of the Camry's design, but when i've seen then side by side, the Accord looks better, IMO. The Camry, like almost all Lexus and Toyotas now, is trying too hard. I thought the Sonata's refresh would be a homerun, but the design just feels conflicted. And I thoroughly prefer the Accord driving experience. It really is above its weight class. And Accord isn't "hybrid-only" as the description states. They still offer the lower-end ICE.
Camry is not out and you are making assumptions
@@ju4121 What exactly did I make an assumption about? I talked about the Camry's design which is right in front of your eyes. I made no comment on how the Camry drives, only how impressed I was with the Accord's driving dynamics.
@@revowow That's your opinion.
The accord design will age better visually imo. If your buying to own long term this will matter. The 2013 Sonata was edgy for it's time but no way it can be called a good lucker in 2024.
1.5 turbo engine Honda is trash.. blows head gaskets right and left..👎
This is the most pleasantly entertaining car review I have watched in a hot Mississippi minute.
Lol! "Millennial grey." "I don't feel that I just took an Ambien when I'm looking at a Camry." I love fake exhaust ports: great place to stash ... oops. TMI. I would buy a hybrid Camry.
One of the best reviews I’ve seen Edmund’s do so far!! Clint is such a fun reviewer to watch. Maybe I need to buy a Camry???
My only problem is that the nu Camry will be sold @ MSRP and above...the prior generation has for the past two years...the nu Accord/Sonata are already available with a Discount...I see that as real Value. If the Toyota market makes the "Real People pricing Adjustment"...then maybe it would be a true Winner😎...in today's economy we all are trying to save as much money as possible😄food for thought.
in term of OTD price, Camry will be probably most expensive price out there due to toyota dealers are greediest out there.
Not anymore, since all Camrys are going to be Hybrid you can get it easily, at least in the US.
Such bulllshit they don’t make up Toyotas where I’m at on the west coast
Hyundais get discounted for a reason. Pay more for the Camry, get it back and then some in resale value.
This comment is BS. Honda never gives discounts. Sometimes they do small incentives, but you’re not going into any Honda dealer and receiving 1,000’s off an Accord.
For such cars, i would like to know about their comfort in terms of suspension damping and sound insulation. I wouldn’t care too much about driving dynamics. Next time please cover that area by measuring interior sound levels and give us your opinion on seat and suspension comfort levels between the three.
Thank you

I like this guy for Edmunds - great review.
With the fastback rooflines and small trunk openings and having to reach deep inside to get something, I'm sad that none of these are offered as 5-door/hatchbacks.
I am so glad you are doing this review because I just ordered the Camry. I have been through 2012 and now 2016 Sonata Hybrid. They are great in driving feel because of the regular 6 speed transmission but I kept getting hybrid error that come on and off. With 110,000km, the vehicle sometimes refused to start after a long drive. For that, it has to rest for 15 minutes before it agrees to start work again. I am so looking forward to the new Camry especially it comes with AWD and reliability.
You could of had a bad 12v battery and Hyundai hybrids have a jump start button that uses the electricity from the hybrid battery to start the vehicle.
@@peterniss7328nope. I changed the 12V battery and same issue.
Honda for me. Its executed properly, its a daily driver , and its built for that
you're about to find out based on the latest camry reviews that your opinion is going to be hotly contested. take savagegeese's review for example lol
The Sonata may not look like a fish. But it’s definitely giving Robocop with the silver!
The Accord you can purchase it much lower than the list price. Good luck with the Camry with their Suggested Retail Price (SRP) and the extra distributor and dealer add ons. You will pay north of $40k for the XSE. An Accord Touring can be picked up for $35k.
if their price is very close, i think accord will not sell...the exterior is just like a civic
@@EvendimataEAnd the Camry from the front looks like Prius on roids
You are not getting no Accord Touring otd at $35k brand new.
I told myself I don't want another Honda but the inside of the new one is so beautiful. There are 4 hondas in my driveway. Accord (2017), Civic (2004), CRV (2006), Pilot (2020).

8 inch screen. Google update Hyundai, you can download the update onto a flash drive and plug it into the car.
As a mechanic let me tell you the truth honda and toyota got stuck in the past hyundai easy to fix more warranty for motor and transmission and in the 2015 the sonata limited has all the technology that honda and toyota has right now
As much hype as the Camry received, I was expecting it to blow the Accord out of the water.
The Accord is pretty new as well and those two models, i.e. the Camry and Accord, have always been neck and neck, so expecting one of them to blow the other out of the water is unreasonable.
It does blow accord out of the water and smokes it inside and out....
And it did
Says the ignorant Toyota boy....@@ibrahimbashir6634
Yes it did
I think the Sonata still wins out, mpg wins, looks inside and outside. Only ride and speed, don't need those for a commuter sedan, traffic ain't moving any faster.
I'd still go Sonata... I have a 19 2.0T, and with a different interior color, you can't beat the features, efficiency, and luxurious feeling inside, plus it looks so dang good... as for the handling okay its not the best, but is anyone seriously throwing down with a midsize hybrid sedan??
Given how much horsepower these hybrids are putting out, yeah absolutely I’d drive them hard when the feeling hits.
Engine will go soon 😢
@@mollywapyolike any car. So weird yall complain about reliability then seem to hope they fail.
The Hybrid Sonata is the most boring model so makes sense its the worse of this comparison but the SEL and N-Line packages makes the Sonata a way fucking better choice when regarding non-hybrid packages for the Camry and Accord...Sonata hands down wins if they did a review for the SEL/N-Line comparison to Camry and Accord...Sonata has alot of safety upgrades, wireless phone charger, 2 c-type charging ports, even two 12V ports for the dinosaurs, when in cruise control the car drives itself and brakes and speeds up when necessary, auto front & rear breaking, panoramic sunroof, Bose stock sound system, leather and suede interior, the interior looks way better than the other two here...but I guess we're talking Hybrid so Camry has more power of the two the only advantage I see but the front exterior looks like shit to compare to the Accord and Sonata...Sonata definitely fixed the exterior ...the 2020-2023 Sonata looked like shit but the 2024 wayyy fucking better..Thank you Hyundai...the Accord looks good too except the rear not so much a fan and they did not make a turbo charge engine 🤔 Anyways, Sonata still a game changer and getting way more features for your wallet
I think it’s Biased against Hyundai. I’m not fan of any of these cars but the video could have been better if it’s just comparison
Great review and fair from everything I seen. I also recently drove the new Camry and the best thing is how seamless electric to gas is. That is HUGE! I like the looks much more than either of the other choices too. Now, I just need to be able to find one!
I js was willing to buy a 2024 RAV4 Pime XSE, so which one is better this camry or th3 rav4?
Great job, great review! And you look tall in videos :-)
5 foot 8 is super tall, I agree
Listing the complete score sheet would have been helpful. I have a 22 Sonata, it had wireless car play, the ride is smooth and quiet 🤷🏾♂️. Pretty interesting the most efficient hybrid with the lowest price ranked last.
This is such a biased review
Interesting anout the Camry,didn't know it has awd.
HYUNDAI = OWNERSHIP NIGHTMARE!! The high voltage battery in my 2017 Sonata PHEV died under warranty when the car was only four years old with 42,000 miles. Hyundai refused to repair or replace the battery under warranty. I had to go through non lemon law arbitration to have the vehicle repurchased, which I won easily. However, Hyundai then decided to miscalculate the repurchase amount and attempted to underpay me by $2000.00. This forced me to go through arbitration a second time, which I won (again). The whole process took 18 months…No loaner. If you own a Hyundai…Sell that piece of crap while you can…
I went from Genesis (2022) to Honda (2024) for this reason. I would have probably gone Toyota but they're completely unavailable.
@JeremyKennelly why would Toyotas be unavailable? That's unheard of, they're the most available car if anything lol
@@J35Y1In Canada the wait list for any Toyota hybrid is 6 months to 3 years (plug in hybrids are all 2+ years)
Ok, so which one is the most comfortable to drive and which one feels the best well put together inside. I mean this are not sports cars, we have to stop treating them like they are 😅.
I test drove all of them. Comfort is within splitting hairs with each other, and all very comfortable and non factor.
Accord is more torquey at lower speed while the Camry has slightly more passing power. Sonata looses out a bit more to those two but still completely fine.
In terms of features, Camry and Sonata are a bit more generous. Accord does win on space though.
In terms of fit and finish, accord and sonata seems comparatively good, while the Camry seems a bit bad(first batch of new cars tough, maybe it will get better).
I will say they are all very good now and just work on finding the best deal.
I guess gas mileage will depend on how the vehicle is spec'd. Consumer Reports got 47 mpg with the Camry and 44 mpg with the Sonata. Oh, and 40 mpg with the Accord.
40 is about right for the Touring accord with 19" rims (as the owner of one)
I prefer the Sonata tbh.
camry will forever be my favorite since my mother 08 😭

Agree 100%. Also, the interior looks fresh. Accord is okay but it's been like this for a while. Camry from the front just looks like Prius on steroids, I don't wanna drive a taxi
The Edmunds website says the 25 Camry 0-60 is 7.8 seconds. If so, thats surprisingly slow and almost a full second slower than the Accord. (The Edmunds website has an error - it says that the Camry is slightly faster than the Accord but that is incorrect). So even though the Camry might look sportier than the Accord, according to this review the Accord is the better driving and handling vehicle and is noticeably faster than the Camry. I think the main reason the Camry scored higher than the Accord is that many features are limited to the Touring in the Accord and not necessarily because the Camry is the better car.
Throttle House put new Camry vs Accord on drag strip and Camry easily won both from standstill and from rolling (30mph or something). Both cars were much slower than previous gen V6 Accord, though
I would have liked this a lot more if you would have did a comparison test of all the hybrid versions.
Don't like the massive front grill of the Camry. They should do something about it.
Man… I miss the Fusion Hybrid I bought new in 2016. It looked better than all three of these, inside and out.
Ford still makes them in China. Looks real snazzy as well.

Good review, but what's the matter with some sidewall around the wheel on the Sonata? I'd rather have some additional sidewall to be honest. Some wheels are just too large.
It makes it "less sporty" and more comfortable. You'll be able to feel the road a lot less in the sonata than the other two in all likelihood, but it won't handle corners like the other two will. Personally, I would rather have the comfort, but I'm probably older than the reviewer, so I value that kind of thing.
@@cmac1100 I live in Canada sot he roads are long and straight. I'm not saying handling doesn't matter but I'm not dealing with European streets corners here. It's a shame Hyundai pulled the Sonata hybrid from the Canadian market. I hope they bring it back with the 2025
You sold me with the body roll description.
Every year every gen Camry in terms of styling, they just nails this segment i dont know how
lol. I was thinking just the opposite.
I think you are ignoring the rest of the range for the sonata. It's the only one that comes with different engine options, an available panoroof and 360 camera plus the blind spot cameras. Seems weird to ignore the amount of features available and only focus on the hybrid because the other ones don't have other options. The Sonata also has an awd option.
true but the transmission needs to be reliable and both honda and Toyota ECVT are head and shoulders above the sonata.

The comment about now being able to overtake other cars in the new Camry is cute but clueless since the previous model was offered with a V6 that could blow the doors off most sedans on the road.
with how you guys trashed the Hyundai so badly, how did you ever think it was your favorite? Sure the Accord and Camry may have gotten better, but you described the Sonata as pretty much trash, and not just trash relative to the Honda and Toyota. Just plain trash.

Perhaps, but sounds like the Sonata trails the other when actually driving. All three are going to be within a small margin though so really depends on someone’s preference with aesthetics, touch points and subtle differences in driving dynamics.
@@ALMX5DPthat seems true, it just also seems like the things people in the market for an affordable midsize hybrid sedan would care about would be things like the interior quality and comfort as well as real world gas mileage rather than how quick or sporty of a driving experience is.

@@BigDunker345 true, I think it would depend on the type of driving and geographic area.

This is great! Everyone is going to run out and get the new Camry, while I shop for the older Camrys that have a lot less technology and will be around a lot longer at a lower price. Win-Win.
Great comparison! I love the Accord and Camry! Personally, I think I'll take the Accord though. We can all agree that the Camry is the best looking of all 3 cars. The Accord's got a simpler/sleeker look. Not really a fan of the Sonata's styling.
And also, this dude should do more reviews! I found this Edmunds video more enjoyable because of this dude.

Lets not forget that Toyota is kind enough to make you pay extra on top of the base MSRP for features that all come standard in the Sonata Hybrid Limited such as the Panoramic View Camera. This review totally glosses over all of the features that come with the Sonata and focuses solely on handling and acceleration of a...... hybrid sedan. The Sonata Hybrid has the most modern cabin of the three cars reviewed as well as some features not found on either the Accord or Camry such as the control of regen breaking levels.
