- The 2021 Toyota Camry SE is #1 in its class and is getting a REFRESH this year! It brings new equipment, revised exterior styling, and a new center console on the inside! All this adds up to make this a BETTER Camry than last year, but can it stay on top against the also-refreshed 2021 Honda Accord?? Or against other new rivals like the 2021 Hyundai Sonata or 2021 Kia K5??

“Sampling the Latest Automotive Delicacies!”
I just upgraded to the 2.0 Accord,but honestly I don’t think you could go wrong with either car. They both are very solid family sedan options. You don’t have to pay 50 to 80k to get quality transportation. Great review as always.
Toyota is getting like the Germans with all the 'options' ...just include them and make the trim levels exclusive my gosh hahaha
They believe in customization it seems. That’s why they are expensive. They let you mix and match options. Rav4 does the same thing
@@naveenthemachine expensive?
@@moeanthony9308 they get expensive. A RAV4 for instance can surpass 40K fully loaded or 50K for a fully loaded prime model
@@moeanthony9308 Agreed
@@moeanthony9308 Well I do see some validity there. I know the Camry fully loaded with the V6 just 6 or 7 years ago was about $34k ... fast forward and now that car touches $40k damn near 🤯🤯 it's shocking because 10 years ago the Camry and Accord V6 models were barely going over $30k ... even the Altima V6 wasn't over $35k brand new before Nissan dropped it.
I really don’t like that new tablet screen. The previous dash was much better. And still uses a key to start :/
Exactly... that's what I'm saying. Nissan has been using smart key access with push button start on the Altima since 2007 🤯 what the hell Toyota c'mon.
You can get the push to starr version....
I have a 2018 with push button. Never going back to key. Ever.
only prob with push button start is that it can eventually fail which can cost over $300 to fix
@@Kureni The failing rate is low though
Love my 2020 XSE v6 😍😍.
I’m sorry for the price of the se at over 26,000 dollars, I can’t believe this car doesn’t have blind spot monitoring as standard equipment, or a proximity key with push to start, and no heated seats. You can get an equivalent accord or sonata that would have all of these.
I wonder which trim level is the top seller. I rented an SE once and thought it was very nice, as close to a Lexus without paying the Lexus price. That softex leatherette interior is a genius move, giving you the conveniences of leather without the excess.
Definitely want to get the SE Nightshade! Thanks guys!
Nice and thorough review. You're the first reviewer to actually let us hear the sound system! Thanks👍
Thanks!
It’s a good car just wish it came with auto start smh 🤦🏾♂️
Start it yourself more shit to break
I love this car and I wanted an all wheels drive of the Camry. Nice reviews 👍
Thanks!
The problem I find with the Camry is I think it’s boring
Same price point, Accord for sure!
Plus you get smart key access with push button start!
According to this review, it has occurred to me that the Accord is the better vehicle!
But I hate accords Design
Chose the SE hybrid over the XSE hybrid. Didn't need all the extra stuff. Saved a good amount!
19" Wheels (XSE) may look cool but the ride would be harder because the sidewall of the tire is less. I don't know why car manufacturers sell larger rims when the tire is part of the suspension system. I could see it on the TRD, but not the other models. I want an XSE with 18" rims and a 4 cylinder engine for the gas mileage. I want practicality with all the safety and interior toys.
Dont really care about the car just wanted to see your quality review
Haha thanks 😁
You guys are doing better & better at these reviews and quickly becoming my go to channel! Very calm and informative and fair. You guys bounce back & very naturally and smooth! I’m subscribed.
Thanks, Joshua! We appreciate that! 😁
I don't mind having a key but I wish the base LE model come standard with vehicle remote start.
All vehicles should come standard with that especially in the colder areas...
The interior is so bland. I prefer the Accord Sport/ SE.
ya, I would go with Accord after looking at this. I feel like Toyota thinks just because it's so popular, they can just skimp on standard option that are available with competitors. Look at Accord sport and check how much stuff you get for the price.
The whole fucking car is bland.
@@CarringtonHollister Toyota is like that unpopular kid that started become popular and started dressing like the popular kids but still wouldn't fit in with them. Mazda, Honda and Hyundai offer way more luxury and tech than this.
@@jamesgand828 could not agree more man
Toyota is the king! No one beats Toyota... even Honda!
I hate the front end on camry se, too busy, just looks ugly... I also don't like the wheels on the se, and they put them on the xle which I wanted to buy, hopefully the 22,s camry will have better taste
Every car in 2020 should have a push button start
And led lighting
I prefer the key entry.
Very Popular Vehicles.
Been waiting for this!
Howdy, great review as always y’all! Quick question, does adding the convenience package to the SE/LE give you rear vents? Anyway, if I were getting a Camry, I’d get the SE with the convenience package! Also, I personally like the floating display on the RAV4, Corolla, Yaris, Avalon, etc., but I personally don’t think it fits the rest of the Camry’s dash well and I wish they would have kept it integrated, but that’s just me!😸😻😸
Thanks! The rear vents are not part of the convenience package but are packaged with the dual zone climate control
In Canada, you need to upgrade to SE AWD for rear air vents.
I don't understand why in this day and age backseats don't have USB ports!! Why ?????
I stop buying toyotas because Toyota thinks it's customers are stupid and were not watching them. I'm getting the accord sport
I think you might be confusing Toyota with Apple
@@ATH-camChannelwithNoName LOL what
Why they made the screen stick out 🤮 ? 2018-2020 infotainment was better looking in the dash
Things change, new look sets it apart , can keep your eye on road better
Just buy a Toyota Camry se first Toyota really like the way it handles big difference from what I was driving before thanks for the video
I rented out a 2021 Camry SE for a recent Vegas trip. The ride was smooth, it has some great pick up, and the sound system was good--That’s about it. Other than that, the interior looked so boring and cheap. It lacks entertainment and I was not impressed with the key to start. I feel in 2021, that should be standard on all models moving forward.
Not everyone wants a push button to start
@@earllewis9011 You’re absolutely right, but since technology has progressed so much, I would think the key to start is a thing of the past now.
@@reneelewis9346 keys have proven to work and will be cheaper to fix. Depending where one lives you are safer with the key ignition unlike push to start because thieves are finding it easier to steal with push to start buttons due to software manipulation nowadays.
I’m a huge Toyota fan. The Camry now looks like a slightly smaller version of the Avalon. The front grill is larger (sorry not in agreement with going in that direction) and the center panel is now a tablet format ( so many cars like that I’m saying deal with it to myself) with the 9 inch looking like the better choice. Reliability, a 5 star safety rating and the wise decision to offer AWD are reasons why this car will always be a winner. Excellent review gents.
The front grill is looking more like the lexus
Was I the only one who thought he had a dog in his lap? lol
Yes it was a Yorkie
😂😂
@@2004cyrus That's exactly what I was thinking lol
I have a 19 SE. I can see why they changed to tablet style screen, the old one was at an awkward angle. But it's too bad they did nothing to address the horrendous audio quality of the stereo system.
Aside from that, the car is slow and needs 40 more horsepower to be able to live up to the appearance. They under tune the heck out of the engine, so it's not like it can't be done. Oh and add some fog lights.
Toyota and their ugliest infotaiment in the auto industry.
😆😆
I find it funny how both the camry and accord got uglier wheels than the previous generation
Accord EX-L are actually really ugly but the sport trims are nice
actually the new accord got some beautiful wheels and everyone is saying so.
>Proof sedans are dying
The design of the car is terrible. 😛🙄
Thats one UGLY car would not have that in a sweety bag. Total fail.
When are U doing a Review for the 2021 CAMRY XSE HYBRID???
At some point!
Does this have the new fuel pump?
I really really love the 2021 Toyota Camry, it’s very nice and great price! I love the updates for 2021
How much ?
They always say the engine feels peppier than the Accord’s, when in reality the Accord is quicker
@Randy Jackson I’ve driven both in the same day and honestly the 8 speed in the Camry feels a lot lazier than the cvt in the accord. Both are pretty lazy though. If you look up the numbers, the accord has a quicker 0-60 and quarter mile than the Camry
Does the convenience package include remote start, or the X trims?
Did u know Camry have wifi all standard trim level
Yes 2GB
Noooo they got rid of the decent entertainment screen. The 2018-19 series already were better. More like Lexus
2020s had the same thing as 2019
So tired of the angry insect front end.
Love this so much!
I have a camry but the only thing i hate about toyota is that they are the very last to update features. Honda, kia, hyundai all have the tablet look on there base model and Apple car play and Android auto. Toyota is the last to do so. Its 2020 and we still don't have android auto retrofit. If I look for another car in the future I will definitely be going to Honda as they last long and has more updated features.
But, the Camry does have Android Auto, which became available in the ‘20 Camry.
@@sherrikwhiteside6107 I bought a 2018 and they do not have android auto or apple carplay. They just started for the 2020s. Honda accord had it in 2018 on there brand new models but I had already purchase the toyota camry before the brand new Honda accord came out or I would of purchase Honda. My point was toyota is always the last to have the features.
@@enyawdgink3926 u can install Apple Car play on 2018-2019 Camrys yourself with a USB stick or at the dealership. 2018-2019 Camrys still can't be updated with Android Auto. 2020+ all comes with Apple Carplay and Android Auto.
@@ro0ster648 thank u. I got the updated apple carplay retrofit already for my 2018 Toyota Camry but I dont like iPhone and don't want one. I need android auto. Thats the one I need. I think its just unfair that everyone else has that option since 2018 and Toyota is the last to do so and give us scout gps which has been terrible.
@@enyawdgink3926 actually BMW and Porsche are the last to add Android Auto
Will you review the Hybrid version of the 2021 Camry?
Yes
So no push start or remote start?? Wtf Toyota?
Hahaha
They have it with the corolla
@@AngelaAlbertina the L and LE comes with key for corolla. I don't see a big deal with keys anyways. I prefer the key myself...
Ugh I love the Toyota Camry but it looks like they decided to get lazy with that floating screen. Looks like I need to buy the previous years before these are everywhere.
I think the lower integrated screen looks better in the console, while a floating screen at a higher position is safer for drivers so they don’t take eyes more off the front window. Aesthetic or practical?
I have the 2020 hybrid SE and I agree with you. I like my screen much better than this tablet setup.
Why does toyota do the LE trim so shady 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@jxmar_ 😭😭😭😭😭
Toyota messed up with their 8-speed transmission as it shifts poorly and jerks. Avoid this until they work out the bugs, look at the 2017 and older camry's. Avoid this transmission at all costs, class action lawsuit in the works now.
I have a 20 XSE v6 and the 8 speeds been smooth for me
It's a self learning transmission, once you put down a few thousand miles it gets better and better. My 2018 shifts very smooth.
Toyota: *NO MORE BORING CARS*
Me an intellectual: *BITCH YOU STILL MAKE BORING CARS TO THIS VERY DAY*
car looks cheap starting with the rims
Good car brother
Come on now! How in the hell is the GR Yaris out performing the Camry? The Yaris is getting more attention than the Corolla too. This is why people are trying to mod. The Camry' s HP and TQ should be much higher especially the TRD. The Avalon probably should be even more powerful. Toyota could have at least went 301/301. They don't want to compete with their other brand Lexus.
Toyota is terrible now
How?
@@ATH-camChannelwithNoName I would like to know as well
Buy a hyundai or Kia and you will see what's terrible lol
Love the coupon test. Makes me hungry for a cheeseburger......As far as the Camry, they need to make push button start standard. It’s a mid level trim and their competitors with mid level trims have it standard.
Sorry but the Push Button start is way over rated..Push Button start allows the continuous radio signals between the fob and steering column to be intercepted by very cheap radio receiver equipment, even when the fob is in the house.
These codes are then programmed into a cheap transmitter and then your car can be stolen... The theft rate of cars with this system is much higher than those with the standard key...And with the standard key there is also a unique immobilizer chip to prevent theft...One cannot just copy the key and start the car...The key must also have the exact immobilizer chip as the original key or the car cannot be started.
In addition the fail rate of push button systems is high, usually within the first 5 yrs and the repair costs are usually North of $1000...
As far as their competition having it standard, the sales gap between the Camry & its Competitors for 2019-2020 was the largest in many years..I'd rather have the Camry's Key system, and their new normally aspirated 2.5 engine and 8 speed automatic over a smaller far less reliable turbocharged engine with a CVT transmission with push button start any day of the week
Thanks but No thanks..
@@richarddobson3138 took the words right out of mouth. I have people that I know that got their cars stolen that way, thats why my 2020 corolla LE has the key instead of push to start. I could have got the push to start but I specifically asked for the key instead as it has been proven to be reliable and not easy to break in
@@alvinsimba734 Thanks Alvin....The standard key has an immobilizer chip which greatly reduces chances of theft, whereas the push button start greatly increases theft chances.. I've never understood why people believe the push button start is so much better.
How hard is it to put a key into the ignition switch? The push button start is just another system that can and will fail and be pretty expensive to fix...That on top of the theft problem and I can hardly see it as
a luxury...
@@richarddobson3138 as for cvt it's a different story as mine its aspirated instead of turbo charged, even then it will be more reliable anyways. I'm not a fan of turbo engines. I will admit though, coming from a regular automatic to a cvt it feels different in which cvt the only thing it's good at is fuel economy and the drive generally is smooth. Only time will tell especially with a toyota cvt. I will post a video of it in a few years to see how good or bad is it.
@@alvinsimba734 I believe Aisan makes all Toyota Transmissions and most mechanics I've heard have said that Aisan makes the best transmissions in the world..And Toyota owns a good chunk of Aisan If I had to get a CVT I'd want it to be a Aisan/Toyota
Pretty dash except for the Desk Top computer screen. Maybe someday they will ban them as a distraction that causes accidents.
A 2022 civic lx has more features than a comparable Camry for a fraction of the price.
Long live the sedan
The SUVs are taking over...
@@ATH-camChannelwithNoName I know
Definitely my choice over the accord
The accord being only turbo was enough for me to choose the Camry w the v6. I worry about it’s long term reliability since Honda tunes their powertrains for performance sort of like how bmw does.
Just bought the 2021 Cam SE. Dope.
How you enjoying it?
@@Ryan_Carder I like it how it handles. Even the 4 cylinder has a decent punch to it. I bought it for reliability purposes since I do a lot of driving
@@THENARRATIVTestimonies I’m interested in this car for that exact reason, reliability. How are the seats, though, in your opinion? I’ve read many negative reviews about seat comfort with the Camry.
Love my 2021 se silver nightshade edition
@@sherrikwhiteside6107 Hello - Honestly, I like it. People will always have an opinion which is cool, but also take into consideration that they may be unfairly comparing it to higher end interiors found in Lexus or even the Toyota Avalon. I personally find it comfortable.

Wow love the Camry review
Kinda sad that the 2019 camry pretty sure all the trims well atleast the lower trims had DRLS just different style to the higher ones like the XSE
Love my 2021 hybrid se hybrid blueprint
It looks alot better and its good to see finally that a camry has a display that stands up like the 2020 RAV4, 2020 corolla and the newer supra
The grills are becoming bigger and bigger. Aggressive big mouth design. Is that what people identify with these days? Kind of 'Trumpish'. This design language has crossed the line of the 'grotesque'. Why not turning the whole car into a 'grille'! Would not like to be seen dead in this contraption, let alone alive.
rewiew a 2021 toyota tacoma trd pro please
2021 corolla design look so much better
The speed limit's shown in the trip computer, new for this MY.
The rear styling looks pretty damn epic to be honest. I think once manufacturers get over the trend of the ridiculous, open-mouthed-fish-look at the front (the mega big 'grill' on the LE is beyond silly) we'll have some good looking cars again.
I think cars look good, even with those imposing front-ends. This trend exists so that family sedans don't look bland anymore.
