[@Saturdayz_In_The_Fall]

That’s literally Honda lol

[@coolpras26]

Seems like you're trying to justify for poor purchase decision with the Toyota by literally lying and making stuff up LOL Accord is superior to the Camry in literally all aspects. Forget about Accord, 1 notch down, entry-level Sedan class Civic is about the same as the latest Camry, which is supposed to compete with the Accord. That's literally Honda vs Toyota in every way Honda is bigger, more spacious (leg room and cargo/boot space). Toyota has cramped interiors. I don't want to get claustrophobic and have my knee start hurting, thanks. Honda is way more fun to drive, much better handling. Sportier. The Civic is leagues ahead of the Corolla in power and features. Accord is ahead of Camry in features and real world performance. Honda makes the best, most long-lasting engines. Also amazing on gas just like Toyota. No cookie there. Also amazing resell value. No cookie there. Better, smoother operating infotainment system. The Honda interiors feel leagues ahead of Toyota. Hell, Civic Interior feels way more premium than Camry, let alone Corolla, which it is 'supposed' to compete with. Hondas look like luxury cars from inside. Toyota still has cheap feel and look on the inside. Not to mention, the overall design inside and outside looks OLD AF. Pretty depressing for a 2024 car. I don't see a single reason to buy a Camry when the Accord exists. I don't see a single reason to buy Corolla when the Civic exists. But I do not have to justify anything, as I do not own either of them and have no personal biases. But I have driven both. Just thought I'd share some REAL stats that clearly the dude in the video either forgot or conveniently ignored.

Great review. As a mechanic I know Toyotas are more difficult to work on. Must take apart or remove components to access the part to be replaced. They are nice vehicles and I have seen them well over 100,000 miles running well. But I think I'll keep my Honda for now.

[@SentientSingularity]

We’re in the market for a new car, and it’s boiled down to these two. On paper, we like the Camry better. But after driving the Accord, Toyota will have to have done something pretty special to win our business. Unfortunately, we haven’t been able to test drive a new Camry yet. The demand for them has been very high, and they’re hard to find at dealerships near us. In general, both Honda and Toyota make very reliable, good vehicles. But in my experience, Hondas have an edge in handling and interior quality/ergonomics. Toyota seems to have looser tolerances in its engineering. Gaps in interior panels, cheaper and more fragile plastics, etc. I also don’t like the new front end of the Camry. That honeycomb grill will look like crap, in short order, as it fills with bugs and gets broken by road rocks and debris.

[@mrwell2341]

I definitely go with Camry SE.

[@tyrecarmon20]

In the market for a new car and test drove both of these and the Camry 100% looks better on the exterior front where as Honda looks better in the interior. Camry's interior looks more modern, but felt and looked cheap in person. The accord front is so boring but the interior quality was very nice and sleek.

[@mikeburke7053]

I have been researching buying a new car and I conclude that the Accord and Camry are the 2 best vehicles in the world. I also conclude, trying to compare "gas" vs. Hybrid engine, I would buy the gas if I planned on owning it for less than 5 years and the hybrid if I plan on owning for more than 5 years (based on hybrids higher price, insurance cost, possible repairs vs. savings in fuel). I am currently convinced the Accord is the slightly better choice, for a reason you did not mention. That reason is that the Accord has 2 electric motors, not only one (like the Camry). The large electric motor is operating the vehicle, while the smaller electric motor operates the lights, AC, etc. The gas engine is simply powering the electric motors until you either stomp on the gas or it reaches for highway speed. Once that happens, a clutch kicks in and the vehicle is drawing power from both. I have seen mechanics (Including Camry owners) refer to this Honda engineering as genius design, yet simplicity in operation, that gives the Honda a mechanical edge over the Toyota. I plan on buying a 2024 Accord Hybrid when the 2025's come out and the 2024 price drops a little.

[@gabrielblackmon6270]

I thought this camry was the awd variant, it has more than one electric motor.

[@mikeburke7053]

Yes. The AWD does have a separate motor for the rear wheels. Not only that, but I was wrong and researching the 2024 models. This video is the 2025 model, and in 2025 the Camry is a "new generation Camry" and mimics the Honda Accord and has the separate motor (a third electric motor if all wheel drive) that in 25 now separates the electric motor from the lights/ac motor. I was comparing the wrong year (24) instead of (2025) @@gabrielblackmon6270

Honda tries to be more elegant, but has failed for the past 2 generation. As for interior, the accord just looks far more elegant (design, materials, tech) compared to the camry. The interior of the camry(while its the best it has ever been, should) just screams japanse(psp esque, dk how to explain it) hardware.
