Comparing 2021 Camry XSE 4-cyl vs V6: I Compare So You Can Decide!

[@Toyotajeff]

Would you rather have Camry 4-cylinder or V6 and why? Do the extra features and power justify the additional cost? Thanks as always for watching! Jeff

V6 all day. The v6 compared to the 4 cylinder is more rare and it’s so much more refined and quiet and smoother

@@naveenthemachine thanks Naveen. However, when building my XSE Hybrid on the Toyota sight, I noticed that previously it was listed as a feature in the Driver Assist Package, and now it's not, got me wondering if Toyota isn't including the hud on Camry anymore. This is a feature I've enjoyed watchingJeff demonstrate, and want on my next car. Thanks for your reply, I appreciate it.

[@teagle1064]

I bought a 2019 XSE 4 cyl in supersonic red. I’ve been reading through some of the comments and notice that, like me, they wish they’d gotten the V6. However to cheer us all up, over this last summer we traveled over 2000 miles on a family vacation. I always do my own fuel economy check by resetting the trip odometer and dividing the amount of miles by the amount of gallons it took to fill up. On one of the legs of our trip I achieved 44.5 mpg!!! With an over all avg of 41 mpg!😎 Trevor, Boise Idaho

[@TheAnnoyingBoss]

Pretty good considering it's not a quirky hybrid

[@gonzarellious6102]

Where I'm at in Michigan, it's pretty much flat so the 4banger works just fine for me. I'm averaging about 35mpg while rolling about 83-85 MPH. The car rides smooth, I get good economy, and it's a really nice looking car, IMO. I'm pretty much satisfied with my purchase.

[@Gardis72]

I have the 2022 XSE 4cyl in the pre dawn Mica Grey and I love the vehicle. I'm getting fairly decent MPG's around city driving it's steady about 24 MPG with minimal highway. I haven't had a chance to do a highway trip yet. I didn't care for the lane assist ( the car actually drives itself in cruise control!) it seemed to fight the driver with the radar operating the steering wheel. so I turned it off and I like the driving experience better. I love the Camry and am so happy with the car. Also, with Android Auto and Apply car play now you really don't need that expensive NAV package. The maps are right there on the screen directly from your phone. I cannot see getting the 6 cyl, but I am very happy witih the performance. Best regards to all from Connecticut! Gardis

I purchased a fully loaded XSE black on black V6 in late 21. Absolutely love the silky smoothness of the V-6. I certainly don’t drive it easy and I’m averaging 23 MPG mostly city in the real world. One notable mention mine came with heated and cooled seats and heated steering wheel. It is a Canadian car and that might be why.

Jeff it can’t stop raining here in Texas! I’d rather have the V6 for the power and quietness. I would only get the 2.5 if I needed awd.

[@onsenguy]

without a doubt, the V6 for the win. a more powerful car is more fun to drive, and greater acceleration is always a good thing--when merging onto the freeway, when you need to pass someone, and when approaching a stale yellow light, more muscular acceleration is always preferable.

[@MadeUpUserNem]

I drive the 4cyl XSE its pretty nice all around. It still gets up very fast. Its all around solid. Unless you are at the drag strip, im not sure its worth paying more for a V6. Youre not going to be going that much faster in the city or highway unless you're doing illegal street racing. I rarely get a chance to open it up on a long abandoned strip and even when I do its pretty damn impressive. It gets up to 90 and feels like only 60, you can easily push to 100+ before you start to feel any kind of wiggle or sway in steering or suspension. It really does glide. You're either gliding slowly or gliding like a sniper bullet. I dont ever feel like I'm wishing for more power. The ONLY thing I would argue is worth getting the V6 for is for the sheer fact that the 4cyl exhaust note will always sound ugly no matter what you do to the exhaust. You just get a louder and louder lawn mower note.

[@ST-nc3gm]

I had a 22 XSE 4cyl and then traded it for a 22 XSE V6 so I have experience with both. In both cases, the electronic throttle programming is horrible (yes I tried the different modes) and so is the transmission software. The V6 is better at coping with the poor software programming because it has more power at the lower end vs the 4cyl. The 4cyl gets bogged down very easily because of the software which then requires more aggressive throttle inputs but that hurts mpgs and it's sounds thrashy at higher rpms. Test drive the 4cyl and see if you can live with the small motor with the bad software logic. If you can then don't test drive the V6.

[@dmedina0217]

[@richscott2483]

Jeff, thank you for making these Camry videos over the last few years. I have a 2023 Camry XSE V6 (supersonic red/ black) with all 3 main packages. Driver Assist, Cold Weather and Navigation Upgrade. Then some extra accessories. Immediately after receiving/acceptance of my Camry from the dealership I had drove about 1/2 mile to a Tire Outlet Shop and got the Bridgestone Turanza EL440 tires replaced with Michelin CrossClimate2. I refuse to drive on unsafe and hazardous tires, to prevent other people from injury, I had the Turanza tires shredded. I do not like vehicles with slushy and slow acceleration, I always loved classic and muscle cars. So the 3.5L V6 was for me. Toyota rating or listed MPG is terribly incorrect as average MPG is just under 18 MPG combined. The Heads Up Display angle or pitch or tilt is a bit off center/ out of alignment but easy to see. I bought a Ottocast U2-X Pro for Wireless Car Play and Android Auto which works well. The weather/climate plays games with the Sensors and at times get messages/alerts posted on the Instrument Cluster. It would have been nice if the front brakes had the larger caliper and disc brakes like the TRD as it would really make a huge difference in braking feel and stopping distance. Panoramic roof has a nice appeal when the skirt/shade is open or pushed all the way back, as long as you do not open/ prop up the glass roof. Unfortunately Toyota failed to upgrade from Safety Sense 2.5plus to 3.0 on the 2023 Camry but to do so would have required Toyota to replace some computerized gadgets and sensors costing Toyota more money just like putting a higher quality grade tire since Bridgestone Turanza EL440 are dangerous or more like a dry summer only tire to last maybe up to 20K miles providing you don't get into an auto accident first. I enjoy driving the Camry XSE V6 regardless of random and occasional alerts because of malfunctioning sensors during snow and rainy weather. To make the Camry XSE V6 more enjoyable would be having it mated with a manual transmission. I believe no vehicle should have a Ground Clearance lesser than 6.8 inches and sad that Toyota Camry is at 5.7 inches. Oh! bummer is No Fog Lamps. The 2023 Toyota Camry XSE V6 is much better than the new Gen 2023 Honda Accord Touring Hybrid. But Toyota decided to drop the V6 in 2024 therefore handing the Mid-Size Car #1 title back to Honda or possibly to Mazda. Driving a 4-Banger is like driving a Golf Cart or Putt-Putt mobile and not fun to drive at all.

[@naveenthemachine]

I’ll take the XSE v6 any day. Oh wait I already have it 😀 The 2.5L i4 is rather unrefined vs the v6. Coming from the 2012 Camry w it’s 4cyl the smoothness and quietness is night and day comparing 2012 vs 2018 and newer. Oh on top of that on long road trips the v6 is astonishingly efficient. In my 2020 XSE v6 on a road trip I took 2.5hrs 165 miles I got 40mpg in that trip

Not a lot of V6 sold here. We seem go go hard out power with V8’s or straight up economy with I4’s. V6 are kinda relics now, now that the days of our Falcons and Commodores have gone. Not a lot of new vehicle purchase option for a 6 cylinder, well not when comparing to 4’s or 8’s.

I own a 2020 XSE V6, and have owned a 2022 I4. The V6 is smoother and more powerful, but it'll cost you at least eight MPG. And, if you "need" 300 HP to support your driving style, you are a reckless driver and shouldn't be on the highway with those of us who drive safely. Public roads are NOT your playground.

[@katazack]

You should get exactly what you want, although that is difficult right now because of the limited availability of the cars. If it is important to you, just wait until the car you want comes available. As far as your payment changing, the sunroof does add about $1,000 to the cost of the car.

Dude I have a 2.5L supersonic red SE I get 45mpg and better on my local county roads 55pmh and power is smoothly delivered an is more than adequate.

[@keonjenkins1852]

I have the same model and color. I agree.

“Dark sky, double chin”, you are a funny fellow, Jeff. Here’s a tip, never look down at the camera!

[@Rockdog333]

There's no V6 available at all over here. It's a couple month wait , covid really messed things up. 😕

[@pacs0508]

Covid took us to a place that they will not allow us to go back to. It has become a tool for financial gain and control.

[@dennisbrogan3085]

I just ordered the Camry XSE V6 SONIC RED w/black top and blackout package, red and black interior. Can't wait for my new ride to be finished.

[@maruf7956]

How is it

[@dennisbrogan3085]

Had to change out the color now, Because Toyota has decided not to honor the Sonic Red/w black top. So I went with Celestrial Silver Metallic with black top. Now waiting to see if they will accept this. Beginning to think I won't be getting my new car anytime soon or if at all, with dropping there production by 40% as of yesterday.

@@dennisbrogan3085 I was told 3-4 months....

[@msceen.8843]

This is exactly the color combo I wanted but that was a no go…..not a v6 within 500 plus miles of my dealership and was told the wait time would be around 8 to 12 months for what I was asking, ridiculous! They had already ordered one, ice edge with black interior, wasn’t the color combo I originally wanted, but I took it, was a 37 day wait, in hand, it’s been a month now and the color has grown on me!

[@donrussell7951]

Mine is being built the end of January. Same color V6 Silver with the black top.

Just bought a fully loaded 2023 Camry XSE V6 last week. Very rare to find so I don’t want to miss it. There are a few functions not available for Camry but on my 2017 Fully loaded Pacifica. Overcall I was still happy I got the V6 version.

[@worldlinerai]

If you want the V6, better grab one while it’s still available. I have a strong feeling the V6 will be axed in the next model update/redesign. Looking at the specs for the new Lexus NX, there is one engine that could possibly replace the V6, the turbo-4 cylinder T24A-FTS. The current V6 in the Camry is from an older design (2GR-FKS). While super reliable as it is based off of the 2GR-FE engine from the previous gen of Camry’s, Toyota is probably looking to migrate all engine offerings to their new Dynamic Force platform which is what the 4-cylinder is based off of (A25A-FKS). The Dynamic Force platform includes many innovations that the GR engine lacks such as motor driven water pump, better thermal efficiency, laser clad valve seat, and tumble flow in the intake.

It’s 2022 and I just bought a v6 xse 22

[@ExSkyCyclePilot]

You're probably right. The new Crown is only offered with a hybrid I4. The next generation Camry will almost certainly go the same route.

[@johnluhmann1581]

What is your opinion regarding the V6 vs the 4 cyl

[@toronado455]

I'm guessing you didn't have an XSE hybrid available for this video because that would have been an interesting comparison.

[@Sp_kingz.__]

Don’t let the 2.5 feel fool you the computer is always in charge of everything 8 injectors advanced cooling electric motors drivin timing electric oil pump pressure regulator heated thermostat stat direct and ported it’s perfect

[@Flyanaa]

You inform and are funny !! Love the video, it really helped me decide that V6 is for me :)

[@MrMiamiswaggz305]

The fact that Ric Flair brother reviews Toyota’s 😩🤣🥲

[@mastafa4517]

They both are great vehicles 🚗 however v6 all way preferably! 😅

[@jawsgreatwhite9966]

Three questions, does it still have CD player? Can you get them with cooled seats? Does it have heated steering wheel for an option? Great comparison review.

[@LifeOfFrankeas]

I have the 2021 Camry XSE, there isn’t an option for the CD player on any trim levels. But the cooling seats and heated steering wheel is an option.

[@rschier1]

I believe they make CD player units that you could connect into the infotainment system via aux or usp input port.

[@kentuckywindage222]

Just bought the 2021 XSE awd 4 cylinder in frost pearl white, red leather interior, heated cooled seats, heated steering wheel, nav, panoramic roof, paddle shifters etc. I think I like it, but I don't know because my wife has drove it the 3 day's of ownership.😂 To be honest it is her vehicle.......but I'm gonna get under the wheel this afternoon and the weekend.
