Expert review

It might seem odd to recommend the Toyota Camry as an antidote to boredom, but that’s where we are. Midsize sedans were once seen as rather vanilla, but as an alternative to the ubiquitous SUV, cars like the Toyota Camry can be comparatively responsive, nimble and satisfying to drive. They’re also comfortable, efficient, and remain spacious enough to suit most of the driving population. Now in its eighth generation (this version launched for 2018), Toyota has gained a wealth of experience and expertise to create and continue to build a practical and reliable midsize sedan. That’s why it’s been one of the 10 best-selling vehicles in the country for as long as we can remember. The 2024 Toyota Camry Hybrid midsize sedan is reviewed separately.
