Editors' Pick Show Autoblog RatingThe Toyota Camry retains its place as one of the best midsize sedans you can buy. It comes in a variety of trims and powertrains, from the potent TRD model to the fuel-sipping hybrid. It's an attractive, functional and well-rounded car offering value and function. IndustryPros: Strong and efficient powertrains; optional AWD; simple controls; well-built interior regardless of trim Cons: Antiquated infotainment; not as good to drive as Accord It seems like only yesterday that the current Camry was introduced, yet here we are in the sixth model year since it received its more comprehensive and substantial overhaul in decades. In many ways, the 2023 Toyota Camry is just as strong a competitor as ever. It may not be quite as well-rounded and good to drive as a Honda Accord, nor is its technology and design as appealing as the Hyundai Sonata or Kia K5, but every Camry we’ve driven, from an LE rental car to a wing-wearing TRD, leaves us with the general impression of, “You know, this is a pretty good car. It’s easy to see why so many people buy them.” Among all those choices, we'd most recommend anything with the hybrid powertrain. Of course, fewer people have been buying midsize sedans in general despite the segment offering such compelling entries, including the Camry, Accord, K5 and Sonata. SUVs are where it’s at now. Yet, there are very good reasons to stick with a sedan. They are generally more efficient, especially the hybrids. They will have larger back seats, with the added space between rows especially beneficial for fitting rear-facing car seats. They are also better to drive since they are lower to the ground and lighter. You obviously lose cargo versatility and elevated visiblity, but there’s absolutely a strong argument to be made that a Camry would be a better choice for many than a comparably priced RAV4. Now, would it be a better choice than a comparably priced Accord, K5 or Sonata? That would depend on the version you’re considering, but even if the answer is ultimately “no,” it would still be smart to check it out.

The Camry’s dark-trim Nightshade package has apparently been popular enough that Toyota is doubling down for 2023. It gets a new, exclusive color in Reservoir Blue to join Midnight Black and White, plus black-trimmed headlights and taillights, and 19-inch matte bronze wheels that are admittedly pretty cool. The Camry Nightshade is definitely not Grandma’s Camry. What are the Camry interior and in-car technology like? The Camry interior is perhaps a little over-styled, but you can't call it boring, and we like that Toyota shies away from large swaths of tacked-on fake wood or metal to carry the look. Quality is also above average, as there really isn't much of drop-off in look, feel and general ambiance from a fancy XLE to the more entry-level LE. We also like the abundance of storage space in the doors, under the center armrest and in a voluminous two-tier smartphone bin.
