What is it?

The 9th-generation Camry (XV80) arrived in Australia in 2024 as a hybrid-only model. Toyota retired the 2.5L petrol and the V6 in this market, leaving a 2.5L Atkinson-cycle petrol hybrid producing 170 kW combined through the e-CVT.

The lineup runs from Ascent Sport Hybrid at $39,990 plus on-roads, through to SL Hybrid at $48,990 plus on-roads. Warranty cover sits at 5 years, unlimited km.

Interior and Technology

4.0 L/100 km claim is genuinely cheap to run, 170 kW combined is brisker than the headline suggests, and the 524 L boot beats most mid-size SUVs at this price.

FWD only, no AWD trim like the US market. Styling is conservative next to an Accord, and there is no V6 option.

Should you buy the Camry?

Reasons to buy

  • 4.0 L/100 km claim is genuinely cheap to run, 170 kW combined is brisker than the headline suggests, and the 524 L boot beats most mid-size SUVs at this price.
  • Warranty: 5 years, unlimited km. Hybrid battery: up to 10 years with on-schedule servicing.
  • 5-star ANCAP (2017), full driver-assist suite.
  • 524 L boot, segment-competitive cargo space.

Reasons to wait

  • FWD only, no AWD trim like the US market. Styling is conservative next to an Accord, and there is no V6 option.
  • You want a V6 or AWD (the Camry no longer offers either in Australia), a sportier sedan (Hyundai Sonata N Line), or a turbocharged Honda Accord.
  • SL at $48,990 plus on-roads is mid-size SUV money. Ascent Sport is the value pick, SX is the sweet spot.
  • Top trim climbs to $48,990 plus on-roads.
