2015 Toyota Camry

Carvana (opens in a new tab) says the 2015 Camry stayed in the seventh generation but received a major mid-cycle refresh with nearly all-new exterior bodywork, a quieter cabin and substantial steering, brake, suspension and body updates, while the four-cylinder, V-6 and hybrid systems largely carried over. The new XSE is the most athletic version, with 18-inch wheels, heated leather and Ultrasuede seats and four-cylinder or V-6 power. Toyota Canada (opens in a new tab) lists a new 4.2-inch TFT color display in the instrument panel and redesigned headlamps with integrated front turn signals and LED daytime running lamps.

MotorTrend (opens in a new tab) adds a wireless charging system, a new hard-drive navigation system with a seven-inch touchscreen and a new premium audio system, and says the XSE has a sportier suspension, paddle shifters and more side bolstering. EPA rates the 2015 Camry at 25 to 40 mpg combined and $1,550 to $2,500 a year in fuel, and KBB lists 25/35 to 43/39 mpg city and highway.

NHTSA lists one recall campaign for the 2015 Camry, 15V144000, in which a component of the electric power steering control unit may have been damaged during manufacturing, which over time may result in a loss of steering assist. Owners have filed 286 complaints with NHTSA: steering with 107, service brakes with 42, power train with 36, electrical system with 32, unknown or other with 30 and air bags with 25. The steering complaints are the largest group by a wide margin.

Kelley Blue Book (opens in a new tab) lists used 2015 Camry prices from $11,950 for the LE to $13,200 for the Hybrid SE at a dealership, with trade-in values of about $7,125 to $9,400 and private-party values of about $10,750 to $11,800.

EPA rates the 2015 Camry at 25 to 40 mpg combined and $1,550 to $2,500 a year in fuel. The 2015 Honda Accord rates 21 to 47 at $1,350 to $2,950, the Nissan Altima 26 to 31 at $2,000 to $2,400 and the Hyundai Sonata 24 to 37 at $1,700 to $2,600. On EPA figures the Accord Hybrid is the most efficient of the four and the Camry Hybrid next, and the Altima has the narrowest range because it has no hybrid.
