Toyota Camry 2021 review: Best selling sedan in Australia gets hybrid heavy overhaul!

The 2021 Toyota Camry range is different. Not that different to look at, sure - but the V6 model has been dropped, and instead there's just one petrol-only offering while the rest of the range is petrol-electric hybrid now.

There have been interior and exterior styling adjustments, with a subtle update to the bumper/grille and revised larger media screens inside. But the secret to the Camry's success in Australia has always been the wide availability of hybird powertrains, and its pricing means it's truly an affordable option for everyone - including Uber drivers.

About 70 per cent of customers went for the hybrid, in the pre-facelift model, which also had a V6 top-spec model. Now it's a more hybrid-heavy approach, we expect that percentage to jump even higher. It's a unique selling point against the VW Passat, Skoda Octavia and Skoda Superb, Mazda 6 and Hyundai Sonata, none of which have hybrid power in Australia.
