Hi All,two weeks ago I tried to order a Camry hybrid.Boy was I in for a surprise.Cant get any as there is a problem with surplying batteries in Japan.Minimum waiting time of 3 months with no garantees they will be ready then.So bought a petrol one.Best kept secrect that one.

With an average/achievable fuel consumption figure of 4.2L/100kms, it's no wonder the Camry Hybrid is so popular. The battery issue is a real pest for everyone.

Hi rexy did you get the 2.5 or v6? 

[RexyB]

Yes I got the 2.5 litre.Great economy,easily get between 7 to 7.5 litre per hundred ks on highway trips.Do about 750ks,fuel light comes on about 8th of a tank so I fill up.Have had V6 before, thirsty around town.Toyota underestimate d Hybrid demand big time

Yeah I’ve been told 4-6 month wait. Still considering the V6, the new 8 speed should help with fuel economy 

[Adamsy]

Sounds about right, i had to wait 6 months for mine. It had a minor tech change and the red replaced with an even nicer red so that was a win, was worth the wait!

Economy is dependant on your right foot, drive it sensibly & you will achieve the claimed factory economy figures.

Adamsy did you get the SL hybrid or ascent sport hybrid?
