Looks like you can expect at least 31 MPG and as high as 45 MPG.



Just depends :).

Answer 2

Buddy owned one but traded in for a prius. He told me the hybrids camrys only get around 3-10 miles more than the regular camrys (normaly 5 mpg better allround). Not worth the extra price tag, stick with the old gas camry and the extra cash you would of spent on a hybrid would be what you pay in a years worth of fuel. Or get a prius

Answer 3

Not enough to make is financially feasible.





Most people buying a hybrid are assuming they will be the least expensive vehicle to operate but that is totally untrue. Yes they are very good on fuel mileage BUT you have to consider ALL costs, not fuel alone. When including all costs over a three year period no hybrid including the Prius even makes the top ten list of most economical cars as can be seen here:

The Chevy will be the most reliable on that list followed by the Smart car.

Answer 4

The dealership estimate is very close. My Prius gets 51mpg in town and that is what is predicted. I drive over the speed limit, not by much though.

The Camry runs less than 50mpg but the tag on the car is accurate.
