Toyota Camry vs. Honda Accord vs. Hyundai Sonata: Midsize Hybrid Sedans Comparison Test

The midsize sedan segment just got a shakeup: The redesigned Toyota Camry and all but two trims of the new Honda Accord have gone hybrid-only, and there’s a heavily refreshed Hyundai Sonata hoping to stand its ground. In this video, Edmunds’ Clint Simone puts all three head-to-head-to-head in our Midsize Hybrid Sedans comparison test!

Do you think Toyota made the right move making the Camry hybrid-only? Let us know what you think in the comments.

[@0HOON0]

For most people, yes. The Camry Hybrid's long term running costs and reliability are easily the best. There are a few edge cases where a non-hybrid previous gen Camry would be a better choice: 1. People who don't drive often or only short trips. (The hybrid doesn't heat up the oil and exhaust enough to prevent fuel dilution and potential reliability/ corrosion issues) 2. Very cold weather areas. Hybrid fuel efficiency plummets in temps below freezing as the battery can't charge quickly. 3. People who consistently drive long distances above 75mph on flat land. The hybrid system rarely has the chance to regenerate power to the battery or run in EV mode. MPG will be little better than the gas only version.

[@crabjoe]

It was a perfect move for them on this model. People buy Camrys to hustle people around efficiently. They're not sports cars nor are they work vehicles or offroad eventure vehicles. They're there to efficiently and reliably move people on streets. That's why it was the right move. Now I do wish they would have made the 12" gauge cluster standard across all trims. Still, I'm super stoked you can get the heated steering wheel on all of them. Personally, I love a heated steering wheel way more than heated seats.

[@kdsewell01]

Absolutely! I have an EV and love it, but I see that they've reached market saturation, but Toyota has a waitlist for almost every vehicle, mostly hybrids and they're leading the industry in sales. They were right about hybrids and when you think about how many hybrids or PHEVs you can make off one EV, the impact can be exponential while eliminating range anxiety. It's like we're racing to an ideal future of all electric without the infrastructure (electric grids and charging stations) without considering any "waypoints" that are necessary and logical. The future may even be hydrogen! I don't know for sure, but I would be a Camry Prime in a heartbeat if I could.

[@mkizzy8499]

This comparison highlights a common mistake by auto journalists: their selfish obsession with testing the top trims. There should've been a review of the mid-level volume trims (Sonata SEL vs Camry LE/SE vs Accord EX-L) which are more attainable for those of us interested in hybrids. I'd even bet they would've been ranked differently.

[@sappallow]

A lot of people aren't thrilled with the new Accord's appearance, but personally, I like it a lot. Reminds me of Audi A4,A5, A6 understatement. To me, it is elegant and appealing. Some commenters are ridiculing discussion of acceleration and handling in a hybrid review. Why? Just because we want to save at the pump and help the environment doesn’t mean we stop caring about having FUN FUN FUN.🎉

[@filetofish7688]

For me I don’t really care about driving dynamics, so the Sonata would be perfect for me. Best MPGs plus the most well rounded technology in the segment. I’ll wait another year to see if any transmission/oil issues rise up before I buy, however.

[@Weaver_Games]

For me the new accord is just a liiiitle bit too dialed down looks-wise. It's like they wanted to design a car whose picture would show up in the dictionary if you had to look up what a car looked like. To be fair this was my gripe with a lot of the old Camry design as well.

[@michaelhughett8396]

I bought a ‘23 Sonata Hybrid but I wanted to get the Accord. But on the Accord, no panoramic sunroof, no Sirius (you have to run it through your phone) and no heated steering wheel. But it has heated rear seats ( that will never get used). As for reliability, I have had two Sonata Hybrids a 21 and ‘23, totaling 85k miles and have had nothing to take it to dealer to fix. It burns no oil between oil changes and on long trips, none of my passengers has been able to tell when it transitions between electric and gas.

It handles just as good, if not better than the accord. Even other journalists have said the same thing

[@Joe-ej3we]

The Hybrid Sonata is the most boring model so makes sense its the worse of this comparison but the SEL and N-Line packages makes the Sonata a way fucking better choice when regarding non-hybrid packages for the Camry and Accord...Sonata hands down wins if they did a review for the SEL/N-Line comparison to Camry and Accord...Sonata has alot of safety upgrades, wireless phone charger, 2 c-type charging ports, even two 12V ports for the dinosaurs, when in cruise control the car drives itself and brakes and speeds up when necessary, auto front & rear breaking, panoramic sunroof, Bose stock sound system, leather and suede interior, the interior looks way better than the other two here...but I guess we're talking Hybrid so Camry has more power of the two the only advantage I see but the front exterior looks like shit to compare to the Accord and Sonata...Sonata definitely fixed the exterior ...the 2020-2023 Sonata looked like shit but the 2024 wayyy fucking better..Thank you Hyundai...the Accord looks good too except the rear not so much a fan and they did not make a turbo charge engine 🤔 Anyways, Sonata still a game changer and getting way more features for your wallet

[@Evan_Land]

I’m a fan of the Accord Hybrid powertrain which is more like an electric car, especially since it doesn’t have a planetary gear or belt driven CVT. But beyond that, I’d have a hard time choosing between Camry and Accord. Great work Toyota and Honda!

[@AyaWetts]

How is Honda more like an electric? Has something changed recently I missed? Its got clutches and connects and disconnects, very unlike a EV. It actually has a few real 'gear' shifts along with a few simulated ones. It feels more normal to drive like an old fashioned automatic, but is more complex than Toyota's. Toyota's ecvt planetary gear system is much more closer to an EV feeling to me... its pure mechanical and always attached, and its much much simpler and less likely to have problems.

[@shawnwinget2337]

@@AyaWetts Hondas are serial hybrids. The vast majority of the time there is no physical connection between the gas engine and the wheels. The engine drives a generator that powers the traction motor which is direct drive like an electric car and charges the battery. At highway speeds the electric two motors can be clutched together which effectively is the engine driving the wheels. But that is only at steady speeds for efficiency. It is mostly an electric car in this sense but with a gas engine that generates electricity for the motor that drives the wheels. There is ZERO shifting since there is no transmission. The car just simulates it to make it feel like a traditional transmission and even then it is only when you get on it. It's actually pretty impressive. I have a hybrid CR-V which has the same setup as the Accord but the CR-V can also clutch the motors together at slower speeds around town.

I have a 2020 Sonata hybrid--the base Blue trim--and at least so far (~46k miles, still a young car)--I've had no issues, and multiple dealers have been decent (albeit slow during the pandemic era). It's luck of the draw for every car, but I'm averaging 49mpg (self-calculated, over the last 25k miles). Which--how did Edmunds not talk about their own fuel economy results on a bunch of HYBRID commuter cars; really makes me wonder just how much these three were driven for the video. I haven't driven either of the other two (I did test drive--and really quite like--a '20 Accord hybrid, I just liked the Sonata's styling more...don't @ me), but I'd bet for most people buying these cars, fuel economy and purchase price are the leading considerations.

However, Hyundai then decided to miscalculate the repurchase amount and attempted to underpay me by $2000.00. This forced me to go through arbitration a second time, which I won (again). The whole process took 18 months…No loaner. If you own a Hyundai…Sell that piece of crap while you can…

I went from Genesis (2022) to Honda (2024) for this reason. I would have probably gone Toyota but they're completely unavailable.

[@J35Y1]

​@JeremyKennelly why would Toyotas be unavailable? That's unheard of, they're the most available car if anything lol

[@jkenn6728]

​@@J35Y1In Canada the wait list for any Toyota hybrid is 6 months to 3 years (plug in hybrids are all 2+ years)

[@stuuuporman]

NOBODY, but nobody has hybrid tech down like Toyota. It has years and miles of experience over all comers. Toyota/Lexus are in a class by themselves.

Please bleep out Hey Google in the future. My phone stopped the video to listen to you😂😂

[@ItsAlive111]

Where’s the 0-60 times for each car? The braking distances?

[@palashkulshrestha5993]

Please make comparison video of Elantra and corolla hybrid also

The new Accord is as exciting as a used bar soap

[@WayApp]

Makes us feel alive!

[@seethingsclearlyawaken3424]

The Hyundai looks nice, but it's still a Hyundai. I don't like the tacked on screen in the Snot-ah interior. I do like the Honda, but really love the new Camry. The Honda and Toyota both have the Hey Google assistant. I like that. The Honda also has that belt driven CVT, while the Toyota Camry uses an E-CVT with out any belts. That's a major plus. The Camry uses a planetary gear set up in that E-CVT, NO BELT!

[@davidjones3520]

The Accord EX-L is $4k cheaper than the Touring due to the lack of the Bose system. Other than that, it's basically identical , besides 17 inch wheels that improve gas mileage over the Touring.

[@EvendimataE]

the front of sonata is beautiful...if only it has a good reliability record

[@wulongchai]

dunno. Time will tell. First year of refreshed model will always be the most problem one(for ex, Prius gets all new gen Prius the recalls due to rear door issue and also other safety problem). I will wait on third year to see if there is any issue from other Sonata hybrid owners. If there isn't any complaint, I maybe will trade in my hybrid for Sonata hybrid.

[@kfx3907]

Reliability is good so far. Im the hybrid owner btw.

[@theholt2ic219]

Yea with Hyundai/Kia it’s. Hit or miss. Sometimes little to no issues while other times the car spends more time at the dealer than your drive way. Honda and Toyota have a good track record and reliability really isn’t something you should be worried about mainly price and features.

[@TheLifetraveler1]

Throttle house, did a race between them. The Camry beat out the Accord each time. But I like the Accord better.

[@butterflygoalie45]

The Edmunds website says the 25 Camry 0-60 is 7.8 seconds. If so, thats surprisingly slow and almost a full second slower than the Accord. (The Edmunds website has an error - it says that the Camry is slightly faster than the Accord but that is incorrect). So even though the Camry might look sportier than the Accord, according to this review the Accord is the better driving and handling vehicle and is noticeably faster than the Camry. I think the main reason the Camry scored higher than the Accord is that many features are limited to the Touring in the Accord and not necessarily because the Camry is the better car.

[@Bambarbia2447]

Throttle House put new Camry vs Accord on drag strip and Camry easily won both from standstill and from rolling (30mph or something). Both cars were much slower than previous gen V6 Accord, though

[@sammyt3514]

The comment about now being able to overtake other cars in the new Camry is cute but clueless since the previous model was offered with a V6 that could blow the doors off most sedans on the road.

[@josephtompkins5479]

AWD you bet I'd buy with a loaded up ~42 k 43 mpg sedan for northern Ohio Winters!

[@Dante8488]

I have a 2024 Sonata. No idea what he's talking about when he says it's loud lol. All the rest sounded the same in the video. The only one I didn't test drive is the Camry.

[@eskandermirjasani128]

Every year every gen Camry in terms of styling, they just nails this segment i dont know how

[@JohnLee-db9zt]

lol. I was thinking just the opposite.

[@beekaye1496]

I’ll take the accord all day especially the top trim. Camry seems like a semi refresh exterior and carryover hybrid

[@Avatar1946]

I'd take the XLE, FWD with a few addons.

[@brokeboy87]

This might be the one review I agree with. The sonata isn't as horrible as some people make it out to be.

[@stockey]

How about the K5 Hybrid ?

[@michaelhughett8396]

This does not exist

[@the_beastboy1]

5:45 you mean 2025 Camry**?

[@InfiniteStrife77]

The SEL AWD is the Sonata to get this year

[@souvikroy4823]

Damn!! My google home responded to your Hey Google, Taco Bell command!

[@MrWins11]

Love the Camrys design

[@DanielHill-km6rw]

Umm, the back seat of the Accord is only roomy if you're like 5' 10" or under. Head room is absolutely atrocious for anyone over 6'. And idk that saying the Camry's interior looks like a Lexus is necessarily a compliment, cuz Lexus and Toyota both usually have bland and outdated interiors.

[@donramonito]

The Honda looks much more classier and looks higher end than the Camry.

[@michaelshakro674]

The Camry models only available in hybrid are actually 2025 models!

[@expsterm1]

Don't like the massive front grill of the Camry. They should do something about it.
