Rental Review - '22 Camry SE

[michaelluscher]

My review, I felt meh.

I did get it up to 85, and it would have done a buck.

Mine 👀 can do 131 mph 😮
For legal reasons, I don't know that 😈

It's for the more restrained road demon
Camry energy is the exact opposite of Altima energy 😂

Pfft. My Maserati does 185, but I lost my license and now I can't drive.

And the current version ain’t going far offroad, not with typical Camry ground clearance! heck, it won’t go far onroad, not in the snow either. Just enough to help people who refuse to get snowtires really, maybe a pinch of help for those dealing with inclines, maybe.

The 4th Gen Camry's are offroad beasts look at mine!

If the next Gen Camry has better tech/infotainment, I'll probably buy a new one. Probably hybrid.

The Camry ain’t got nothin’ on the Tercel!

I’m pretty sure it was not available continuously. At times, yes, but not every year.

Some buyers want AWD whether they need it or not. Toyota builds what enough people want.

AWD will help with that horrid understeer. Still there, but since Toyota slapping TRD on everything they make, AWD will make front but more civilized. But, just bit more.

As long as we're hooning camrys in the desert...

To clarify, this was the last time that AWD could be had on a Camry...it has now returned as an option after nearly 30 years of FWD only Camrys.

The funny part was the Camry was on its own platform when the All-Trac was a thing - there was also an All-Trac Celica(also it was a turbo too, 3S-GTE), itself Corolla based and the Previa also an All-Trac option; it competed with the AWD Chrysler vans as well as the 4WD Astro/Aerostar. There was also a Tercel 4WD but it wasn’t an All-Trac I think. It was a manual shift system like an old Subaru.

With TNGA, the current Prius and Camry share platforms and Toyota didn’t need to go far to get parts. The Sienna and RAV4/Highlander offered the parts to make the Camry go AWD, the Prius AWD uses AWD-e, using a dedicated inverter for the rear axle but mostly the same axle as a RAV4 Hybrid/Lexus NXh and the proposed Corolla Cross Hybrid.

The newer Camrys ride a bit more confident. TNGA provided a dynamic improvement - it still feels like a Toyota but doesn’t feel as “nervous” as one usually is.

Now that Mazda stopped building the 6 my next car will likely be a Camry. I live about 30 miles from the giant factory where they make most of them in Kentucky.
