The Toyota Camry is one of the most well-known faces in the Toyota lineup, but the Camry is onto its eighth generation with the soon-to-arrive 2018 model, and according to Car and Driver, it’s the best generation yet! The vehicle reviewed by Car and Driver was a 2018 Toyota Camry XLE Hybrid, proving that eco-friendly driving doesn’t have to be a compromise in the least!

Highlight Reel: What Makes the 2018 Toyota Camry Hybrid Stand Out?
- We mentioned a redesign, but that redesign started from the architecture up—Toyota’s New Global Architecture (TNGA) to be specific, giving the 2018 Camry a longer wheelbase by 2 inches and making it ¾-inch wider, while lowering the ride height by one inch. What this translates into is a more sophisticated exterior with elegant-yet-sporty proportions.
- With a wide windscreen and roomy cabin, you and your passengers won’t feel cramped traveling in this surprisingly rich interior.
- Changing to a new undergirding and new rear struts, the Camry’s overall handling and road-feel is greatly improved.
- Fuel efficiency abounds; in the LE Hybrid trim, the 2018 model earns an EPA-rated 51 mpg city and 53 mph highway, so if you’re looking to go green and save green, this is a great way to do both.
After 15 years as the best-selling car (excluding pickups) in the U.S., the Toyota Camry definitely deserves a look if you’re on the hunt for a stylish and reliable daily driver in the greater Hartford area, and if you’re looking for a vehicle that is easy on your wallet and the environment, waiting the short amount of time for the 2018 Toyota Camry Hybrid to release is more than worth the effort.
