Disappointing

Review

I just purchased my first hybrid, and I thought I would be happier with my decision than I am. The ride is not nearly as comfortable as my previous Camry SE, and the car hesitates every time I start up again after a stop, making me wonder if it's going to die on me. I am happy so far with the mileage, but for the price and all the hoopla, I thought I'd be getting something I'd at least be as happy with as I was with my 2005.

Favorite Features

Smart key system, eco displays.

Suggested Improvements

Better interior materials. When I pulled off the airbag sticker from the glove box, it took off the paint.

Review

I just replaced my 2009 loaded Camry Hybrid with a 2010. I did it because I really like the change to the front end of the car, plus the wheels and rear camera. When I finally got to drive it, I was surprised to also see an updated computer interface for all of the functions, Everything, e.g. phone, contacts, energy use menus are more modern looking, and easier to use. As a former BMW 7 series and Audi A6 owner, I like this car as well as either of them, except for the lower power, but the hybrid is surprisingly peppy. I managed to stay up with an Infiniti G35 tonight as we roared off on an freeway entrance ramp. I managed to stay in the lead. Highly recommended car.

Favorite Features

Wheels, front fascia, interface to screen functions.

Review

I am so excited about my first hybrid. I love this car! It is so comfortable and exciting to drive. The unusual color (green mica) has people commenting constantly. The mileage is amazing. This is my first Toyota.

Favorite Features

The dual comfort zone heating and cooling I have not had before, makes driving a real pleasure and the quietness of the cabin is so peaceful.

Review

Have had my company-provided 2010 TCH for a week and am blown away. The TCH replaced a 2008 Impala, and beats it in every category including performance. Love the changes on the 2010. The upgrade pkg is worth the money and includes XM built in with 3 free mths. Bluetooth hands-free is worth every penny when you drive 35000mi/yr. Car rides and drives bigger than it is. My 1st Toyota, and very quiet & solid, even in 25 mph crosswinds. Getting 36-37 MPG in normal conditions. Put 1500 mi on TCH in 1st week-spent 7 hrs in the car-std lumbar support is outstanding. Now I understand the love of Toyotas. Chose this over '09 Impala LS and '10 Fusion SE b/c of features and size.

Favorite Features

Upgrade pkg, JBL audio, rear seat A/C vents(kids love it), ride comfort, addition of XM w/out dealer equipment,overall vehicle quality. Not a tree-hugger, but the technology is impressive. Find myself seeing how long I can run off the battery. Would buy when lease ends if I knew battery life.

Suggested Improvements

Figure out somewhere else to place the battery other than the trunk. Weekend trips are OK, but my vacation trips will be a challenge with 1/2 the trunk of the Impala. Include mute function on the steering wheel audio controls. Integrate iPhone compatability to wireless audio/AUX feature.
