2016 Toyota Camry Review: Curbed with Craig Cole
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 เม.ย. 2016
- Ah, the venerable Toyota Camry. Pundits and members of the press alike are keen to call this family sedan a snooze, equating it to a washing machine or microwave oven on wheels. But of all the most popular sedans on the market today, like the Honda Accord, Nissan, Altima and Ford Fusion, only one is the bestselling. In 2015, nearly 430,000 people bought a Camry, making it America’s favorite car for the 14th year. Either half a million drivers are deluded or there really is something special here.

Boring isn't a bad thing when it comes to cars. I'd rather have a boring reliable Camry than an exciting broken down Corvette.
I agree 100%! What are your needs? I need to get to work, meetings & family and that doesn't require style! It require reliability and safety, which is what Camry's are! “The most successful people I know are also the most reliable!”
Two words. Quality and reliability.
That's theee words
Cheap,working
The Camry is rarely anyone's "favorite" vehicle, it's just that buying this over other cars is the wisest decision for most people.
The main reason why I'd take a Camry over the Accord is because it has a regular automatic. God I hate CVTs, regardless of who makes them.
Or you could get the sport model with a 6spd manual transmission.
Rat Face Good choice if I wanted a manual, but if I wanted a 6 spd automatic, I'd have to step up to one of their expensive V6 trims (compared to I4 trims).
WuWei Xu I see.
+WuWei Xu = OH GOD, I SO AGREE WITH YOU ON THAT !!!
CVTs are awsome dude. I actually have no idea one anyone would hate them.
Got myself a 2015 Camry SE, it's a fantastic car with excellent ride quality, space and comfort. It's kind of like an iPhone, it may not be the most cutting edge or advanced, but it just works and they're reliable. And that's perfect for most buyers.
Been driving the 2016 Camry SE, and I love it! I've driven my friend's LE too and the difference of handling and acceleration can be felt easily. The interior, to me, isn't boring as I like it simple and easy to use. I'd love to have the V6, but the I4 isn't any slower for my taste and IT GOES FAST! ;)
In my opinion this is the best looking Camry ever. Hands down
I like the way this review is editted...the keyframing looks great, the floating text, and shallow depth of field, Adobe After Effects filters are all nice.
Do you know the title of the music at the end of the video?
Pragmatic : dealing with things sensibly and realistically in a way that is based on practical rather than theoretical considerations.
I swear I heard Mr. Cole whisper, "Honda Accord 6-speed manual Sport is better"... I'm almost sure he did...
I love my 2015 Camry XSE. For a midsize sedan, it's not bad at all. Don't knock it till you try it!
Had the 2015 for 6 month. Traded it in for a Mazda 6 and I actually feel like I'm driving a car now.
madridtillidie tested the Mazda 6 before I bought the Camry and thought it was an awesome car. It was my second choice.
+Aneesh S yeah but it's not fast lol. The v6 Camry will destroy the Mazda 6. At least if you're looking for power.
Looking to move into one of these Camrys from my 1999 Avalon. The Camry sure looks exciting from my perspective! Thanks for the run down on it.
I can't believe I watched a Camry video review.
Lol. Same here! 😂😂
+Rizki Pratama Yet here we are!
hahah true true
+Rizki Pratama You should congratulate yourself. One step ahead to get rid of your prejudices.
lol the new camry looks fkn sick. Older gens suck
I know this is late and wrong year of car but I have a 2015 Toyota Camry LE. Is it possible to have DRL on without the Highbeams? If that makes sense?
Toyota is like the Samsung of Mobile phones, ER know their designs aren't the best, but their reliability is super!
Awesome & informative review there .. short & loaded too
I almost bought a corolla but I changed to a camry for the 6 speed automatic. Cvt makes me nervous
I don't get why the camry is the only toyota not to have side mirror blinkers
I love the way it looks!
Ha-haaaa! Kinda like a mac, until you get that spinning beach ball thing! Love it Craig, Keep it up. You're the reason I subscribe to AutoGuide.com
I love my 2014 Camry and the one introduced in 2015 and beyond basically changes the styling and makes it more polished. The car is a great value. The 4 cyl model is great as a daily driver which is why anyone would buy this car in the first place. I have the v6 and a few notes on that; the 6 is strong but the transmission exchanges any sort of snap with smoothness. The transmission is smooth but not as quick as in the Accord or Passat so sporting intentions for rapid launches in the city should not be expected even if it does have respectable power. The V6 Camry is the perfect highway cruiser. If I were to get a new Camry, Id go with the XLE over the XSE; the XLE doesnt handle that much worse than an XSE but the XLE does have that much more of a noticeable improvement in ride quality.
I like this camry. What kind of camry is this?
Does that Camry sales figure include fleet sales? I thought I read that if you remove the fleet sales of the Camry, actual individual sales favor the Accord and not the Camry.
+Red Cuffs That figure is total sales as reported by Toyota, so yes, it almost certainly includes fleet deliveries. According to Honda (from a news release on their media site), the Accord has been "the most popular car in America with retail car buyers for three consecutive years." It's all in how you count, I suppose.
A car that has no real weaknesses and is exactly that. Pragmatic.
A new Camry for the 2018 model year is coming in less than 18 months.
i have seen it and it definitely looks more upscale and less forgettable.
Great review!
my cousin Valerie has one and I finally got to ride in it and hers drives really good
Wow, that paint is swirl-a-rific! Did you wash it with a broom from a machine shop and puddle water or something?
+josh6499 We used special wire brushes and Scotch-Bright™pads to make sure the paint was EXTRA clean.
The V6 Camry goes from 0 to 60 in only 5.5 seconds !!! Now that is sports-car territory levels of acceleration !!!
Boring as heck, until you hit the gas and your face peels off.
5.5 is quick, but the way this camry goes about it, you would never feel it
Bought one with 39k miles. Only complaint is there seems to be a sligt clunk in the right rear suspension when driving 5mph and turning over a bump. Can hit a big bump no issue sometimes hit a pebble and hear a clunk. Taking it in thursday , probobly something simple. Otherwise im happy with the car.
I'm about to get one very soon..yes I'll agree it's a boring car when put against the competition..but I'll take the reliability over good looks cause reliability is what going to get you places..I did my homework and found out that year Camry is a good buy..
What makes accords and Camrys so reliable?!?
One of my dream cars.
How many of the 429,355 vehicles were sold to commercial enterprises such as rental car companies ? I've heard that more retail end-users buy Accords than Camrys. What's the real story ?
nicely done dude
Can we see what a "Grand Rosevelt" looks like?
Don't like the front driver seat it is uncomfortable too hard for comfort 4 cylinder model
For buying my first car as a Camry SE 16 in 2017, my only wish is that I bought something with more horsepower. Otherwise, I have no legitimate complaints to register.
:) Lumia 950 XL...?
My only complain with my 2014 camry is the poor quality of the paint.
How many seconds to go from 0-60 mph ?
Consumer Reports has the 4-Cyl at 8.6 seconds, Hybrid 4-Cyl at 7.6 seconds and the V-6 at 6.4 seconds!
New Camry looks good compared to previous model.
I like the wheels, that's about it. The Kia Optima, Hyundai Sonata and Mazda6 deserves a lot more attention in my opinion.
very good review
it's a great car without a doubt..!!
Neat review! Keep it up!
can you review the Mazda 6? why is it SO underrated?
Unremarkable engine and firm ride... But it's probably fun Inge twisted!
+Hau Freren in the twisties* lol
Love the Camry.
This XSE is the trim to get looks the best. That color is dope. Those swede and leather seats are awesome. The steering wheels looks nice too. This is how I would buy my Camry... gotta tint the windows ! I do agree the interior could have more flash BUT its the most easy to use interior and thats the best thing. Great value too.
Oh, it's you again -_-.
Rat Face small world huh
Toyota4Life You comment on every car video xD.
Rat Face Why not ? lol
I would rather it have a boring interior for a 23k car. Maybe it's just my taste. I don't like the Mercedes, Cadicallc, and Porsche interior design because it seems difficult to use and leaves a lot of room for mistakes when switching between phones to radio or other station lol.
Reasons for Toyota's success. Quiet, comfortable, reliable, affordable. I test drove a Mazda 6 on the mean and broken streets of New York City. It was noisy, hard riding and the 4 cylinder engine was slow. You can still get a 6 cylinder with the Toyota.
+Ben Stern A sport-tuned suspension usually compromises some ride comfort, as you probably experienced with the Mazda6. If you were to leave the mean streets of NYC, then perhaps the above-average sportiness of the 6 would have been more evident.
While it is true that the Camry has the 6 cylinder as an option, it will push the sticker well into the $30K range. For that money most people will start to look into an entry-level Lexus.
Ganso Goose No doubt, but 0-60 times may not be as important to the average Toyota or Lexus buyer as much as brand prestige. Plus the IS200t will do the 0-60 run in about 6.8 seconds and is RWD.
Yes you did read your post
I love my Black Xse!!!!
I know Toyota doesn't read this, but a wagon[hatchback] would be a nice thing to have. But like I said, Toyota doesn't read these.
Toyota has like 20+ models, they could give us a wagon camry. we did in the 80s and 90s. they probably don't want to cannibalize Highlander sales
Americans don't buy wagons unfortunately. :/
+SHiFT Di3S3L (Patch) For inexplicable reasons, the American auto market generally doesn't buy hatchbacks or station wagons. However, cross-over hatchbacks and station wagons that are marketed as CUVs or SUVs are all the rage. It's all very confusing.
That was why the Venza was in the lineup.Unfortunately it was a dud
Im starting to think reviewers are not in tune with the customer base when it comes to judging cars. My 2015 Camry SE has more than 'adequate' power ive flat out smoked v6's in other cars. Some cars reviewers like are not selling well at all and usually have a reliability problem. The camry does not get the praise it deserves from reviewers yet it sells more tham any other car. Which means Toyota must be doing something right.
How many are rental car fleets?
Probably 20-30k
+Moaiz Shahzad and they sell 10x that a month, amazing really
+Louie Lambretta Lol no car sells 200-300k models a month. That's stupidly fast haha
is it just me or does he look like the ridler from Gotham TV show
The mac joke ...lmao...favorited right then :P
Guys, I am not a native English speaker so I would like to ask what's a game of words behind the Craig's notion of 'Curbed'???
+DawidAugust In this context I believe "to curb it" means "to leave it." It's informal and colloquial.
+Eric Shea Many thanks Eric!!! So now I know;))
Is it same as pinned against the wall or something else?
Okay, is the number one, but is it the best, is better than the accord or perhaps the Altima
better than the altima ? yes indeed
but not the accord
i think the accord top them alllll
+fwirs I'm with you on that, I think the Accord is the best but I'll like to see a video first
go to car complaints website and check out the number of problems accord has. Just check
The Altima is like a matchbox car compared to these 2 lol
Sounds like crash course
“Less than 32,000 dollars”
Welp, I guess I am being left broke :/
There is everyone dream car.
I considered purchasing a new Camry last month. In the end, I went for a 2016 Nissan Maxima (awesome car BTW). I see so many Camry's, Accord's, and Altima's on the road that I felt I wanted something different. You can't deny the reliability of a Camry, though. Terrific car and terrific value.
+PhillyFan20 LOL! so you wanted a European car ... good for you.
Fussinated Nope. The Maxima was within my budget.
+Fussinated European?
guy proulx Yes! European.
Fussinated isn't Nissan Japanese?
Craig Cole > the universe
I think the Honda sales more Accords than the camery individual American sales. Toyota sales a lot of camerys as fleet to rental car company's.
+Valdis jackson- Wallace
exactly
Top 3 midsize sedans sales:
1) Toyota Camry
2) Nissan Altima
3) Honda Accord
Cars a finally catching up to the Camry
Heyu Yoma dude they do make a distinction between fleet sales
It really does just scream "APPLIANCE."
i like this guy how to review his appareance also just like Prof Stephen hawking
Best taxi ever
Camry v. Accord, guys?? I'm not sure myself.
accord=better driving dynamics and quality. wins with almost any generation
Brenden Pragasam
I don't know how to drive yet, but I'd probably get the Accord because of the 6-speed I wanna learn how to drive :)
I'll take the camry I mean the accord is nice but toyota was rated number one over Honda in reliability!
Jeremy Reed but the Camry has driving thats more dull than eating a dry piece of lettuce. As another Jeremy has said in the last(Jeremy Clarkson)"Yes,[that is true] but I would have rather walked".
John Appleseed to be honest, check into the Mazda 6. It's recommended by most car people for a reason
People just buy it because it's a Toyota, nothing more. They don't go in looking for a fun sporty car, just a get it done car. That poor car has so many swirls in its paint, someone needs to detail the hell out of it!
Please make a RWD version or AWD lol
+HIDDENRAINN We can only drive. It would be badass paired with the 3.5 liter engine
Presenter sounds like Linus.
Mazda 6 is the best midsize sedan. Once they throw in a V6 option, that boy will fly.
They won't though :(
+chancy319 Given the fuel efficiency requirements that automakers are facing, smaller engines are the future. Mazda seems to be committing its R&D resources to high-compression, normally-aspirated engine technology, where other makers are investing in turbochargers. The only Mazda offered with a 6 cylinder is the CX-9, and that is changing to a turbocharged four cylinder with the 2017 version.
+Eric Shea Damn. :(
The accord sells the most to individual customers. Take fleet sales away and Camry is no longer number one.
Honda sells to fleed also take zip car
Rafalp Gresiak did I say anywhere in my comment that Honda doesn't sell to fleets?
***** how do you know this. Since Toyota doesn't release individual consumer sales.
Beeeecause dealers do! 😉
Loving my Kia Optima EX Premium over any Camry (had the 2000 LX I traded in for it 2 years ago) which seemed to have small but important service issues that didn't seem like Toyota quality was so great...
I would buy the Nissan Altima
This car is almost embarrassing when you compare it to others in the class as far as, interior quality and design, technology and a few others. The only reason Toyota sells so many of these is because it has a huge customer loyalty because of the reliability, so most Camry buyers just switch out their Camry's every few years without looking at the competition. I doubt there are many new Camry buyers out there, because every other car in this class is miles ahead of the Camry.
+Vikk 54 I just bought my first camry
+shaROASTY were sorry for u
even the Kia optima is better....
***** it has a 100,000 mile warranty you're fine until you completely pay off the thing
+shaROASTY Hope you're liking it. On my second one now. However, I will say I am moving to something different next time. Nothing wrong with it - seriously, it's a smooth, relaxing ride and as Craig said takes no effort to use, but I have just decided that I want a car that is more fun to drive.
I'm guessing that many Camry's were sold due to the rental car industry.
+Super Dan Almost every taxi in nyc is a Camry, it gets a lot of sales there.
+Zachary Nystrom Meh it's only like a few thousand or so. There's quite a bit of older Camry models too.
The only reason I watched this video it's cuz he funny! I'm not a big fan of Toyota products except the supra!
+Brian Vtec
Agree, but I love their SUV segment. I love the look of their FJ Cruiser, 4 Runner, Hulix, and I think that about it.
the only cons he mentioned are subjective
here in UAE toyota camry used as taxi.....everywhere.....
This is my dad car I swear 😳😳
If you want thrill, get a motorcycle. This is a reliable car.
this thing needs a redesign
Just got redesigned last year.
+Moaiz Shahzad This is just a refresh of the redesigned 2012 Camry. An all new Camry will be out for 2017.
Moaiz Shahzad this isn't a redesign..just a very extensive refresh...still not enough tho
True. Interior is the same as 2012-2013 I believe.
Just put in a twin Turbo V8 diesel engine and watch stang buyer buy it.
Whoa, thumbs up for using windows phone.
it's 2016, please Toyota get rid of the dated silver plastic accents on the inside
Don't expect pretty accents on a car this cheap lol
Moaiz Shahzad they could just leave it black and it would be an improvement
I disagree. I like the fake brushed aluminum look. Cant stand the dated shiny chrome plastic look
Camry is tge best
Deluded
Toyota can't design rears, starting from prius to camry
Love my 2016 Camry XLE. I guess I lucked up on buying one of the best years for this vehicle! 🤗🥰.
(My 2014 Nissan Altima had a better sounding radio)🤭. I had to trade it because of a transmission problem. 😶
ਹਾਇ
Camray
Soo it's a same old boring reliable rental that half of the sales are fleet sales. I'll stick with my Fusion
Reliable rental? Half of the sales are fleet sales? I'm sure you're talking about your fusion, of course without the reliable part.
+Jonathan Santa Ana I don't think the Fusion is a good looking car(The Malibu is the best looking in this class) but no. I've never seen a fusion Taxi or any at the local airport. Toyotas and Nissan's are the favorite for the rental sales.
Anal Fusion
CAMRY IS THE BEST SELLING BECAUSE THEY OFFER MOST OF THEIR CARS TO RENTAL FLEETS WHILE THE ACCORD IS THE BEST SELLING CONSUMER CAR EVER
+Mitul Jariwala Yep, that is 100% correct buddy!
Thank you for replying because most people don't know the facts!!!!
Corolla is best consumer car. Look it up boy
+Hau Freren boy get your facts straight cause i was talking about the mid size sedan class
+Mitul Jariwala you said "consumer car ever." No midsize sedan was in your comment hehehe oops
But over half a million people also think that Hillary would make a good president.
So, no those numbers mean nothing to me. It's nearly at the bottom of the class in everything but reliability, with a chassis that dates back to the 2006 redesign and an interior that so cheap Hitler would think it's Jewish.
No need to fix an engine working well but it is getting outdated mechanically
Moaiz Shahzad The engine is fine, the interior and chassis is worth fixing for sure.
Notice the cheap looking "sail panel" on the C pillar behind the rear door. That's because the roof is the same as the old car.
***** I meant 2007, sorry.
+kirbyswarp if it's not broke don't fix it :)
Hau Freren Sure, but when it could be better, and still not broke, FIX IT.
Hot nerd.
Nascar 😀
Ford Fusion would take my money first, and I've driven both.
+S Baksh I've never had one issue with my 4 1/2 year old Fusion with 60,000 miles so I'm not so sure about that claim.
+steve9509 2012's and prior are great but of course just like gm have to ruin a good thing when they have it so the 2013's reliable of course is horrid. ford just a few years ago was one of the most reliable car brands just around the time, or right before u bought ur fusion. now they are one of the least reliable.
Nathan Kendall they lost me on the focus, screw those assholes
Like the car, this review is boring.
