The Toyota Camry has long been associated with two keywords: value and dependability. As America’s best-selling sedan, the Camry is highly regarded for its track record of safety, durability, and budget-friendly running costs. But until the 2018 model year, almost no one would ever have accused the Camry of being exciting to drive or – dare we say it – even a little bit sexy. The brand-new 2018 Camry has shed its stodgy image for something altogether more sporty and youthful.

The exterior is bolder, with plenty of the swoopy lines and curves found on Toyota vehicles such as the similarly new C-HR compact crossover and the Lexus LC coupe. Lower and wider than the outgoing model, the newfound emphasis on style and agility in the 2018 Camry could give rivals such as the Honda Accord, Ford Fusion, Mazda 6 and Hyundai Sonata an even more elusive target in the midsize-sedan segment.

Safety
Toyota’s TSS-P suite of active safety features comes standard in the 2018 Camry and includes high beam assist, lane departure warning with steering assist, adaptive cruise control, and the Pre-Collision System, which bundles forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, and pedestrian detection. Other available safety features include blind-spot warning and rear cross-traffic alert.
The Camry’s cabin won’t wow you with its opulence, but it nails the fundamentals across the board. It will satisfy a truly broad range of sizes and shapes. It’s appropriately spacious, easy to decipher its various knobs and buttons, and is a cinch to live with on a daily basis.

Ease of use
8.0The Camry presents itself well, with no mysteries. Clear, large gauges and simple, well-labelled buttons make it intuitive for anyone to operate. Radio volume and tuning knobs are easy for the driver to reach but are a stretch for the passenger.
Getting in/getting out
8.0Typical of Toyotas, the Camry is easy to get into and out of. It has very light doors, a narrow sill, and a sizable opening. It’s lower than the outgoing car, so there’s a smidge more of a drop into the seat.

Driving position
Taller drivers will be pleased with the additional reach of the telescoping wheel, though more would be preferred. A generously-sized driver’s footwell and good relationship of the steering wheel to the pedals and seat make it a very natural drive.
Roominess
Ample head- and legroom for 6-plus-footers. The cabin feels airy. The back seat has ample legroom for 6-footers, though their heads brush the headliner of our panoramic sunroof-equipped test car.
Visibility
A lowish beltline and slim pillars aid the view forward and out the front side windows. Average visibility over your shoulder and out the back window. The optional bird’s-eye view camera on our test car provides a clear and comprehensive depiction of the surroundings.
Quality
A step up from the old Camry in design and materials. Soft-touch surfaces abound, and they look and feel good. Its design and variety of textures won’t be mistaken for those of a luxury car, but they’re attractive without sacrificing functionality. Our preproduction test car had a couple of creaks
2018 Toyota Camry Performance
The 2018 Toyota Camry is now a minority in its segment, offering an optional V-6 engine in high-end models. Fewer automakers are considering a V-6 for similar-sized sedans. While we had hoped for more, we rate the Camry at 5 out of 10 overall: its powertrains, handling and roadholding, and suspension are essentially average for the segment.
