Consumers looking to shorten their stops at the pump have most likely considered purchasing a hybrid sedan. Likely at the top of their list is the 2021 Toyota Camry Hybrid, due to its impressive fuel economy. The Camry Hybrid is even more exciting than before with the sport-oriented XSE Hybrid, making for an incredibly thrilling driving experience.
High Fuel Economy
Perhaps the top reason that buyers invest their hard-earned money into a hybrid sedan is for the incredible fuel efficiency it promises. The Camry Hybrid makes good on that promise on every model in its lineup. The XLE and SE Hybrid trims achieve a combined EPA estimated 46 mpg, which is far better than average for other midsize hybrid sedans on the market.
The base model, LE, gets an incredible combined EPA estimated 52 mpg for even better fuel economy. In tests, these numbers do not fluctuate much in various circumstances, so buyers can trust these numbers to hold true.
Swift Acceleration
Hybrids are not typically praised for their swift acceleration, but the 2021 Camry Hybrid manages to gain speed quickly, reaching 0 to 60 mph in just about 8 seconds, proving to be quicker than most of its rivals. As an everyday commuter car, this is quite a decent showing. The Camry Hybrid can strike a better balance between typical hybrids and their non-hybrid counterparts, evidenced by its acceleration.
Smooth and Secure Braking
The brakes on the Camry Hybrid are noticeably smooth and easily predictable, and they respond well when you need them to do so in high-pressure situations. The low-rolling-resistance tires on most hybrids do not always make stops feel secure, but Toyota’s well-designed mechanical components manage to make these tires brake with ease.
Solid Handling and Steering
The 2021 Camry Hybrid is sporty under the hood, delivering steering and handling capabilities that are more than decent for this class of vehicle. No noticeable body roll makes rounding through turns feel safe, while its tight steering makes everything feel nice and controlled.
Comfortable Interior
Toyota is known for designing safe vehicles, but they are quickly becoming known for the level of detail they’ve been putting into their comfortable cabin experiences. The driver’s seat absolutely shows itself to be more than adequate for daily drives. Its lateral and lumbar support make for an incredibly cozy ride, especially with the standard heated seats. The climate control system is user-friendly, with well-placed vents that reach the rear unobstructed.
This midsize sedan is fuel-efficient, incredibly comfortable and spacious, and delivers an impressive amount of cargo space. The 2021 Camry Hybrid is undoubtedly a top contender and will continue to be a driver-favorite for years to come. Eager to experience it for yourself?
