Pros Four-cylinder engine delivers strong fuel economy Offers plenty of cabin and cargo space Good seats, steering and visibility make it easy to drive Cons Engine noise is loud and unrefined during acceleration Advanced driver aids can be overly sensitive What's new Now standard with Android Auto smartphone compatibility New all-wheel-drive model debuts New performance-oriented TRD model joins the lineup Part of the eighth Camry generation introduced for 2018 Overview The 2020 Toyota Camry provides the basic qualities you expect from this popular sedan: a roomy cabin, plenty of trunk space, a comfortable ride and high crash test safety scores. So far, so Camry. But some noteworthy additions make this year's model more desirable than others. The first is all-wheel drive, which has been absent from the Camry lineup since 1991 and should have particular appeal for those in cold-weather regions. Cost to DriveCost to drive estimates for the 2020 Toyota Camry L 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl 8A) and comparison vehicles are based on 15,000 miles per year (with a mix of 55% city and 45% highway driving) and energy estimates of $3.48 per gallon for regular unleaded in Montana. Monthly estimates based on costs in Montana $126/mo for Camry L Camry L  vs $175/mo Avg. Midsize Car Calculate my fuel costs The second is standard Android Auto integration. Toyota has been slow to incorporate third-party smartphone integration, finally adding Apple CarPlay just last year. Now the Camry comes standard with both pieces of software plus Amazon Alexa for a truly complete smartphone experience. The third big upgrade is the new TRD trim. While Toyota continues to offer the sport-themed SE and XSE trims, the TRD bumps up the Camry's performance abilities considerably. The Toyota Racing Development team has upgraded the Camry's suspension components and customers have the option of adding summer performance tires at no cost. The Camry TRD loses a little practicality a V-brace that stiffens the chassis extends across behind the rear seats, eliminating the ability to fold them but gains an appreciable amount of street cred. As a sweetener, the TRD comes standard with the Camry's smooth-revving and powerful V6 engine. In a broader sense, it's true that the Camry isn't the best midsize sedan out there. Other top picks such as the Honda Accord, Hyundai Sonata and Mazda 6 offer various combinations of nicer interior materials, more enjoyable base-model performance or simply greater value. But the Camry's continuous improvements, history of reliability, and fiercely loyal customer base ensure this family-friendly four-door remains popular with shoppers. Notably, we picked the 2020 Toyota Camry as one of Edmunds' Best Gas Mileage Cars for 2020. What's it like to live with the Camry? Because of its thoroughly overhauled cabin and redesigned exterior, the eighth-generation Toyota Camry was an interesting addition to our long-term vehicle testing program. We bought a 2018 Camry in the sporty SE trim and tested it for more than a year. To learn what it was like to live with, read our long-term test, where we covered everything from seat comfort to fuel economy. Note that the 2020 Camry differs slightly from that 2018 model, which did not have Apple CarPlay or Android Auto smartphone integration, but our coverage is otherwise applicable.
