What reviewers liked most about the 2009 Toyota Camry Hybrid:

• In terms of ride, handling and interior comfort, were it not for the graphic display of the hybrid's status, the substitution of a welcome, real-time, fuel economy gauge for the tachometer and the unique, abbreviated shift gate, we easily could have believed we were driving an XLE.- New Car Test Drive

• It delivers the typical Camry traits with the bonus of above-average fuel economy.- Edmunds.com

What reviewers liked least about the 2009 Toyota Camry Hybrid:

• It's more expensive than most other Camry styles and has a small trunk.- Edmunds.com
