  2013 Fusion Hybrid is way better than Camry
A member from Minnesota, United States

Compared to 2013 Ford Fusion (Silver)

Best Reason to Buy the Toyota Camry: Front seat support & comfort
Being 6' 3" it can be hard to find a car where I have sufficient legroom & headroom. In the Fusion Hybrid there was lots of space, even with a sunroof. There are also padded surfaces where my left knee rests against the door and where my right leg rests against the center console. The Camry Hybrid was not comfortable. The doors are hard plastic and there was no soft place to rest my knee. The center console was also hard plastic.

Best Reason Not to Buy the Toyota Camry: Cargo capacity & towing
The trunk is a odd shape because of the hybrid batteries. It is very deep but not very tall. This is somewhat made up for by the fact that the rear seats fold down. The Camry does not offer rear folding seats but does have a more useful trunk space for times that you're using just the trunk space without folding down seats.

Best Reason to Buy the Toyota Camry: Fuel economy
There is a bug in this SW, it removed ALL my "like" comments!! Will redo best can remember for my XLE 4 cyl w/leather/conv pkg/entune. Measured actual mpg 33 in mixed hwy/city driving first tank 210 miles. Got 40mpg best case 70mph 40 mi no wind

Best Reason Not to Buy the Toyota Camry: Audio & nav systems
The grey XLE in stock my wife liked came w/Nav/Entune. Nav easy to use, but Entune TBD. Both my Samsung Stratosphere & son's Nexus work OK w/Entune, Toyota sites says they won't. All searches put adrs into Nav, nice feature!

  Camry longevity reputation for high mileage.
A member from Missouri, United States

Compared to 2013 Ford Fusion (Silver)

Best Reason to Buy the Toyota Camry: Exterior styling
Car has attractive styling.

Best Reason Not to Buy the Toyota Camry: Fuel economy
After 6000 miles the car averages around 24 mpg city and 27.4 mpg highway. The latest response from the dealer is the milage will improve after I have driven 12,000 miles . That is the fourth milestone i have been told to reach for better fuel economy. The dealer refused to put the car in the shop to check out this problem. Last week i drove 286 miles to Louisville, KY and back with 246 miles on interstate highways at 65 mph. I drove with the Eco light lite with slow acceleration. I have spoken with other 2012 owners and they report the same milage. The conclusion I have reached on the average milage listed on this web site is by people who do know how to accurately figure fuel milage.

The 268 HP V-6 coupled to a 6-speed automatic is very smooth and fuel efficient. The shiftable automatic comes in handy while driving in the mountains.

Best Reason Not to Buy the Toyota Camry: Exterior styling
Yawn. It looks the same as the other billion boring Camry's out there. The 2012's are a joke! It looks JUST like a Corolla to almost everyone and you can't tell them apart on the road without a close inspection. Did I mention it's boring a
