No, the current generation Toyota Camry is hybrid-only. Toyota transitioned the entire Camry lineup to a hybrid powertrain, which means every new Camry comes with it as standard equipment. The result is better fuel economy across the board without requiring any changes to how you drive or refuel.

What kind of fuel economy does the new Toyota Camry get?

Fuel economy varies by trim and drivetrain, but the Camry hybrid delivers some of the strongest numbers in the midsize sedan class. Front-wheel drive models on certain trims return over 50 miles per gallon in combined driving, while all-wheel drive versions are slightly lower. Exact figures depend on your specific trim, driving habits, and conditions.

What trim levels does the new Toyota Camry come in?

The new Toyota Camry is offered in LE, SE, XSE, and XLE trims. All four share the same hybrid powertrain and Toyota Safety Sense technology, so the differences come down to styling, interior features, and driving character. The SE and XSE lean sportier while the XLE prioritizes cabin comfort and premium touches.

Does the Toyota Camry come with all-wheel drive?

Yes, all-wheel drive is available on select Camry trims. The system uses the hybrid's electric motor to power the rear wheels separately from the front, improving traction on wet or slippery roads. It is a practical option for Connecticut buyers who want added confidence during winter driving.

How reliable is the Toyota Camry over the long term?

The Camry has one of the strongest reliability track records in the midsize sedan segment and consistently earns high marks in long-term owner satisfaction surveys. The hybrid powertrain uses fewer mechanical components than a traditional gas engine, which tends to support durability over time. Many Camry owners drive their vehicles well past 150,000 miles with nothing more than routine maintenance.

The Camry Has Earned Its Reputation

Few vehicles in any segment carry the kind of long-term credibility the Toyota Camry has built over the years. It has held a top spot among midsize sedans consistently, not because of heavy discounts or flashy campaigns, but because drivers keep coming back to it and recommending it to people they know.

The current generation makes one significant change that benefits every buyer: the hybrid powertrain is now standard across the entire lineup. There is no gas-only version to sort through. That means better fuel economy, a quieter ride, and stronger low-end response come on every Camry sold, regardless of trim.

Quieter, smoother ride character compared to previous Camry generations
Consistent long-term reliability record backed by decades of ownership data

For returning Camry owners, the switch to hybrid-only feels like a natural next step. For buyers coming from a different brand, it means stepping into a well-proven platform with efficiency built in from the ground up.

Finding the Camry Trim That Fits Your Priorities

Four trims make up the Camry lineup: LE, SE, XSE, and XLE. Every one of them runs the same hybrid powertrain and comes loaded with Toyota Safety Sense driver assistance technology, so there is no base-model compromise to navigate. The differences are about style, comfort, and how the car feels to drive.

The LE is where most buyers start, and for good reason. It covers the day-to-day essentials well with a responsive infotainment system, comfortable seating, and strong fuel economy. The SE steps up the exterior appearance and tightens the suspension tuning for drivers who want a more connected feel on the road.

LE trim for a well-rounded, efficient daily sedan with no frills removed
XSE trim for sportier exterior styling and a more engaged driving character
XLE trim for buyers who prioritize interior comfort and premium cabin features

The XSE and XLE represent the top of the range and split in different directions. The XSE leans into a sport aesthetic with blacked-out trim and a firmer ride, while the XLE focuses on a refined, comfortable interior. Both offer available all-wheel drive, which is worth factoring in for year-round Connecticut driving.

The Girard Toyota team in New London, CT can walk you through all four trims and help you figure out which one matches how you actually use a vehicle every day.

Real-World Efficiency You Will Notice at the Pump

The Camry hybrid earns some of the best fuel economy numbers of any midsize sedan on the market, and the real-world performance tends to track closely with the official estimates. That consistency matters more to most drivers than a headline number that only applies under ideal test conditions.

For buyers in the Groton and New London area who split time between local roads and highway stretches on I-95 or Route 1, the hybrid system handles both efficiently. The electric motor carries more of the load at lower speeds and in traffic, which is precisely where traditional gas engines burn through fuel unnecessarily.

Over 50 combined mpg available on front-wheel drive LE and SE trims
Electric motor handles low-speed and stop-and-go driving for better city efficiency
AWD option adds winter traction with only a modest reduction in fuel economy

For buyers who put on a lot of annual miles, the savings over time are real. The Camry makes an economic argument alongside its reliability reputation, and the two together make for a strong long-term ownership case.
