2023 Toyota Camry Hybrid review

1. A trim for every driver

With six trim configurations to choose from, there's truly a 2023 Toyota Camry Hybrid for every type of driver. There's the base LE, SE, SE Nightshade (which adds black exterior trim and a sporty rear spoiler), XLE, XSE, and the performance-oriented TRD. Regardless of the trim you select, every 2023 Camry Hybrid is equipped with features like smartphone integration, a touchscreen display, automatic climate control, and a power-adjustable driver's seat for added comfort.

2. Available all-wheel drive

Finding a midsize sedan with all-wheel drive isn't unheard of, but it's not common to find this feature offered on a hybrid sedan. However, the 2023 Camry Hybrid goes against the grain by offering all-wheel drive as an option when paired with the vehicle's standard four-cylinder engine. Specifically, this AWD system can deliver up to 50% of its torque to the rear wheels for added traction even in adverse road conditions.

3. Standard driver-assistance features

Every 2023 Toyota Camry Hybrid is equipped with plenty of driver-assistance features, including forward collision mitigation, lane-keep assist, road sign recognition, and adaptive cruise control for added convenience. Stepping up to the midrange XLE trim yields blind-spot monitoring and full-speed adaptive cruise control that can completely stop the vehicle as traffic and driving needs dictate.

4. Great fuel economy

If you're looking at a 2023 Camry Hybrid (or any hybrid vehicle), fuel economy is likely a priority. The 2023 Camry Hybrid does not disappoint in this area. Even with its base LE trim with 2.4L four-cylinder engine, six-speed automatic, and front-wheel drive, you can expect an EPA-estimated 52 mpg combined.

5. Optional V6 power

If you like the idea of cutting down on fuel stops with a hybrid vehicle but aren't ready to sacrifice power behind the wheel, the 2023 Camry Hybrid offers the best of both worlds. Specifically, the range-topping TRD trim on this vehicle comes equipped with a 3.5L V6 engine at a whopping 301 hp. Stepping up to this trim will also yield some notable feature upgrades that include a sport exhaust, sport-tuned suspension, black exterior trim, and simulated leather upholstery with sporty red seatbelts. Keep in mind, though, that you won't be able to get all-wheel drive if you opt for this more powerful engine.
