Toyota Camry
The Toyota Camry is a full-size five-seat luxury sedan built on Toyota’s TNGA-K platform with a 524-litre boot, a fifth-generation strong-hybrid powertrain, sold in 2 variants, the Elegant and the Sprint Edition. It gets a single powertrain: a 2.5-litre petrol engine (187PS) paired with a 136PS electric motor and a lithium-ion battery for 230PS combined, sent to the front wheels through an e-CVT.
In terms of features, the Camry gets dual 12.3-inch displays, sharp styling and advanced safety technology, while its spacious and comfortable rear cabin makes it well-suited to being chauffeur-driven. Overall, it is an appealing alternative to entry-level German luxury sedans, prioritising comfort, reliability and fuel efficiency over sporty performance.

Camry Road Test Findings
Autocar India’s road test scores the Camry 9 out of 10 for interior comfort, performance, ride and price-and-verdict, and 10 out of 10 for efficiency. Its weaker marks come on features and safety (7 out of 10) and design (8 out of 10). Here is what we understood from the test.
What we liked
- Excellent rear-seat comfort: Supportive, reclining outer seats, an electric “boss function” and a unique rear armrest control panel.
- Comfortable front seats: Broad, ventilated seats, 10-way electric adjustment with memory and an electrically adjustable steering column.
- Premium, user-friendly cabin: Physical controls, a volume knob and a warm tan-and-black interior.
- Quiet cabin: Effective sound insulation and double-glazed windows keep road and engine noise low.
- Smooth hybrid system: The 230PS hybrid powertrain switches seamlessly between electric and petrol power.
- Brisk performance: Reaches 100kph in 7.96sec, with strong in-gear acceleration.
- Excellent fuel efficiency: Returned 16.62kpl in the city and 23.07kpl on the highway in Autocar's tests.
- Comfortable ride and reassuring handling: Absorbs potholes well, with predictable steering and stable body control.
- Practical and well-equipped: A 524-litre boot, full-size alloy spare, well-calibrated ADAS and comprehensive warranty coverage.
What we did not like
- Engine gets noisy under hard acceleration: The petrol engine sounds buzzy at higher revs, with the familiar e-CVT rubber-band effect.
- Not sporty to drive: Prioritises comfort over driver engagement, and the e-CVT feels less involving when pushed.
- Android Auto requires a cable: Apple CarPlay is wireless, but Android Auto is wired.
- Some features are missing: No rear-seat ventilation or powered boot lid.
- Rear seat suits two best: The centre seat is firm, while the floor hump and limited footroom affect comfort.
- Piano-black trim gets dirty easily: Attracts dust and fingerprints, requiring frequent cleaning.
- Expensive without German badge appeal: Best suited to buyers who prioritise comfort, reliability and efficiency over prestige or driving excitement.
Who should buy the Camry?
As per our road tests, the Camry is best suited to buyers who value comfort, efficiency and Toyota's reputation for reliability over badge appeal, whether they drive themselves or are driven.
Buyer type | Why it fits |
|---|---|
Are chauffeur-driven | The rear seat has electric recline, a boss function and an armrest panel that controls climate, audio and the sunshade. |
Drive long distances on highways | It returned 23.07kpl on the highway in our test, rides plushly and gets adaptive cruise control with a full speed range. |
Want low running costs | Our tested average is 19.85kpl, and the hybrid battery is covered by an eight-year or 1,60,000km warranty. |
Put safety first | It carries nine airbags, ESC, a 360-degree camera and Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 on both variants. |
Want a comfortable, feature-rich cabin | Ventilated and powered front seats, a head-up display, 3-zone climate control and a 9-speaker JBL system are all standard. |
The buyer the Camry suits least is the driving enthusiast, because the steering and e-CVT are tuned for comfort rather than engagement. Those who regularly carry three adults at the back, or want rear-seat ventilation, should also look at other options.

Toyota Camry price & variants
Toyota Camry price in India starts at 48.69 lakh for the Elegant and goes up to 48.69 lakh for the Elegant, both ex-showroom, while the on-road price in Delhi runs from 56.73 lakh to 56.73 lakh.
The 2 variants share one powertrain, so the choice is about styling rather than mechanicals. In terms of price, the closest rival is the Audi A4, with the BMW 3 Series LWB and Mercedes-Benz C-Class as pricier alternatives.
Which one to pick:
- Both variants get the same 2.5-litre hybrid, e-CVT, features and safety kit, so pick on looks. The Elegant is the understated choice, while the Sprint Edition adds a sportier body kit at the same price.
- If you want a sportier look, the Sprint Edition adds a matte-black bonnet, roof, tailgate and alloys, a body kit, a boot spoiler, door warning lights and ambient lighting. It is not offered in Attitude Black.
- Nine airbags, ESC, traction control and a 360-degree camera come standard, so neither variant asks you to pay extra for core safety.
- If you drive very few kilometres each year, the hybrid's running-cost advantage will matter less, as our experts point out, so factor in your usage before paying this much.
- EMIs for the Elegant start at 82,215 a month, and for the Elegant at 82,215 a month.

Unexciting to drive
8.0
The ninth-generation Toyota Camry evolves the familiar formula with sharper styling and improved technology while staying true to its core strengths. The new “hammerhead” front-end design, inspired by the Prius and Lexus models, gives the Camry a noticeably more aggressive appearance than before.
Slim LED headlamps, a larger grille and cleaner surfacing modernise the sedan without making it look overly dramatic. The side profile remains unmistakably Camry, though revised lines and new alloy wheels add freshness. Sprint Edition cars also get cosmetic add-ons like blacked-out elements and spoilers for a sportier appearance.
Underneath, the Camry continues with Toyota’s TNGA-K platform but now uses an updated hybrid system with a lithium-ion battery replacing the older nickel-metal hydride unit.
7.0
The cabin is where the Camry truly shines. The dashboard is modern and neatly integrated, featuring dual 12.3-inch screens for infotainment and instrumentation. Toyota has wisely retained physical controls for climate functions and drive modes, improving usability. Interior quality feels genuinely premium, with soft-touch materials and a rich brown and black colour scheme elevating the ambience. Front seats are armchair, comfortable featuring ventilation and electric adjustment. Rear-seat comfort remains a highlight. There is generous legroom and headroom, and rear occupants get powered seat recline, sunblind controls and climate settings integrated into the centre armrest.
7.0
Power comes from a 2.5-litre petrol-hybrid powertrain producing a combined 230hp, paired with an e-CVT transmission. The lithium-ion battery improves responsiveness and allows the Camry to operate in EV mode frequently at lower speeds. Performance feels stronger than before, with smoother transitions between petrol and electric power.
The Camry is not sporty, but it feels effortless and refined. Low-speed driving is nearly silent, and the hybrid system works seamlessly in traffic. Push hard, however, and the petrol engine becomes vocal while the e-CVT introduces the familiar rubber-band effect.
9.0
Efficiency remains one of the Camry’s strongest attributes. Toyota claims 25.49kmpl. The ability to spend more time in EV mode significantly reduces fuel consumption in city traffic, making the Camry remarkably efficient for a large luxury sedan.
8.0
Ride comfort continues to define the Camry experience. The suspension absorbs bumps and broken surfaces with ease, delivering the soft, composed ride buyers expect from a premium sedan.
Toyota has improved body control compared to earlier generations, and the new Camry feels more tied down at highway speeds. However, handling remains comfort-oriented rather than engaging. Steering lacks feedback, and enthusiastic driving exposes the limits of the e-CVT gearbox.
8.0
The Camry now comes equipped with Toyota Safety Sense 3.0, adding Level 2 ADAS features such as adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist and autonomous emergency braking. Other highlights include a JBL audio system, wireless smartphone connectivity, ventilated seats, panoramic sunroof and rear-seat controls.
8.0
Priced at around Rs 47.48 lakh (ex-showroom), the Camry occupies a unique niche between mainstream sedans and entry-level German luxury cars. It may lack the badge prestige and sporty appeal of German rivals, but counters with exceptional comfort, hybrid efficiency, reliability and lower running costs.

Toyota Camry Mileage
Toyota Camry’s ARAI-certified figure is up to 25.49kpl, while owners report about 21kpl in everyday use. As tested by the experts of Autocar India, the Toyota Camry returned 16.62kpl in the city and 23.07kpl on the highway, an average of 19.85kpl.
In our tests the Camry stayed in EV mode for over 80 percent of the time, which is what keeps the city figure high even in 38-degree heat. With the 50-litre tank, that works out to a full-tank range of about 992km on average, around 831km in city driving and about 1,153km on the highway.
The Camry has one powertrain, so there is no mileage trade-off between variants, and both the Elegant and Sprint Edition should deliver the same efficiency.

Questions you may find useful
I live in Gurugram and am planning to buy the current-generation Toyota Camry. My only concern is its ground clearance, which stands at 145mm and seems quite low. Would this be an issue during everyday city driving, especially when encountering unexpected or poorly designed speed breakers? I also occasionally drive to hill stations, roughly twice a year. Would the Camry's ground clearance be adequate for such trips, or would I need to be particularly cautious?
Yes, the ground clearance could be a concern over unusually large speed breakers, however, under most scenarios, the car isn't likely to scrape if you are careful. On the hills, with aggressive throttle inputs, the e-CVT's tendency to hold high revs could make it sound strained; however, the engine is adequately powerful and it'll never leave you wanting for more power.Overall, the Toyota Camry hybrid is an excellent choice if you're looking for a luxurious, comfortable and efficient sedan.
Hey guys! We’ve been using a 2019 Kia Seltos 1.4 DCT and are now planning to change our car. I’m leaning towards a sedan, particularly the VW Virtus, mainly for its performance, driving comfort, and overall build quality. I’ve also driven the VW Vento 1.0 TSI before, so I’m familiar with the driving experience. However, the Virtus doesn’t quite feel like a significant upgrade from our current car, especially considering that the interiors feel a bit dated compared to what’s available today. I’ve also been looking at the Toyota Camry, which I think is a beautiful car and offers a more premium experience, but it’s a little too expensive for our budget. We drive around 15,000 km a year, with a mix of city driving and highway trips. I’m looking for a car that offers an engaging driving experience, good performance, comfortable long-distance cruising, and a premium feel. A sedan would be my first preference, but I’m open to an SUV if it makes more sense. What would you guys recommend? Are there any cars worth considering that would feel like a genuine upgrade from the Kia Seltos ?
Unfortunately, there are only few sedans to choose from. Aside from the Volkswagen Virtus that you're familiar with, there's the Skoda Slavia, Hyundai Verna, and Honda City. While all models are good in their own right, none of them would feel like a significant upgrade over your 2019 Kia Seltos 1.4 DCT. The Toyota Camry is a great product but would be too much of a stretch. With sedans out of the question, we'd shift our focus to SUVs. And the first model that comes to mind is the new Kia Sorento. It's significantly larger than the Seltos, offers the flexibility of a third row of seats and feels genuinely premium on the inside. Your kind of use makes the Sorento Hybrid worth a look. It's got more than adequate power, and you'll also get great fuel economy over your mix of city and highway drives. If your priority is more towards the highway experience, we's guide you towards the Sorento diesel. The diesel is strong and punchy and works really well with the dual-clutch gearbox. It makes for a refined highway cruiser that you'd happily spend long hours in. Of the other models, you could also consider the Mahindra XUV7XO petrol. Again, it's got the flexibility of three rows of seating, feels plush and packs in loads of features. The 200hp petrol engine is also very impressive. However, if you've been happy with the Kia experience, the Sorento would be our pick for you.

I have driven the Volkswagen Vento 1.0 TSI before, so I am familiar with the driving experience. However, the Virtus does not feel like a significant upgrade from our current car, especially because its interior seems dated compared with newer models. I have also considered the Toyota Camry, which looks beautiful and offers a more premium experience, but it is beyond our budget. We drive around 15,000km a year, with a mix of city commutes and highway trips. I want an engaging driving experience, good performance, comfortable long-distance cruising and a premium feel. A sedan is my first preference, but I am open to an SUV if it makes more sense. What would you recommend? Are there any cars that would feel like a genuine upgrade from the Seltos?
The Volkswagen Virtus 1.5 TSI DSG is worth considering if you want an engaging sedan with strong performance and good highway manners. However, since you already drive a Seltos 1.4 DCT, the Virtus may not feel like a substantial upgrade in cabin quality or features, even though it offers a different driving experience. The Toyota Camry would feel like a bigger step up in refinement and premiumness, but if it is beyond budget, stretching for it may not make sense.The Mahindra XUV 7XO is worth a serious look if you're open to an SUV. It will feel more like a genuine upgrade in cabin space, features, comfort and performance, with a more substantial family-car feel. It is enjoyable to drive, has good ride comfort, and if you do a lot of highway driving, you can also consider the diesel automatic, which is refined for a diesel and delivers strong performance.
Hi Dear Auto car team , I am OMKAR from Baner , Pune . On 28th June 2026 autocar team had answered my query regarding Toyota Camary . I want to share my further experience. Here’s my experience. I had done quite extensive research on Camary I had a few friends at the dealership I talked with them and they had a demo Camary for sale it was just 17 - 18 months old and had done around 27,000 Km . It was decently priced at around 37.5 lakhs and it was in Pearl White colour . I loved it . I took my family my mom , dad , wife and son on next Sunday to the dealership to see the car . The Camary was out for test drive the sales team told us to wait for about an hour or so till the Camary returns . In that one hour some other sales person offered to show us the Innova Hycross . My whole Family saw the car and they just loved it so much that we ended up booking the Hycross . My family didn’t even see the Camary , Such is the magic of Hycross . The dealership has tentatively told us the delivery will be by mid January. I will share the further experience also . Thanks autocar for your suggestion support and guidance. As always Deep Drive podcasts gets better and better.
I am confused between waiting for the Skoda Superb and going ahead with the purchase of the Toyota Camry. I am looking for an executive sedan that prioritises rear-seat comfort for my parents, who are senior citizens. Mercedes-Benz and BMW models are outside my budget. My last premium sedan was a Skoda Laura, before it was renamed the Skoda Octavia and eventually discontinued. This car will primarily be used for long-distance travel between two cities or towns. Should I wait for the Skoda Superb or go ahead with the Toyota Camry?
Go for the Toyota Camry. Your priorities are rear seat comfort for senior parents and long-distance reliability, and the Camry is the more sensible choice. The hybrid powertrain is smooth, quiet and efficient on highways, and Toyota’s reputation for reliability and service reach is a big advantage for long-term ownership. The rear seat is genuinely comfortable, with good legroom and a relaxed ride, which is exactly what you want for your parents on long journeys.The Skoda Superb is a fantastic car and arguably the better driver’s car, but your usage is rear seat comfort and reliability, not driving dynamics. The Skoda Superb will launch with a diesel engine, which would make it efficient, though we suspect the Camry might be more efficient still. It's also worth noting that Skoda has not confirmed a launch date as yet, so your wait could be longer than you'd like. Pricing remains a question mark too.
