As per title, saw 2015-2017 ish camry hybrid selling for about 80k range, is it worth to buy?
Considerations:
- I need to drive up and down KL -> JB once every week, assuming mileage 1k km per week
- Best to have a stable and comfy ride on the highway
- Should be reliable, toyota should be reliable? just not sure about hybrid car in general
- Most importantly, if possible to save on petrol, since mileage is quite high
Will appreciate if in your reply you can let me know if you have first hand exp, aka, owner of camry hybrid, or you just hear say from friends.
What other car will be a good choice for 70-100k budget?
not much at the budget when it comes to comfort and good FC. some of forumers here pointed out... you need to understand how hybrid works.. the hybrid system install in most japanese family car is meant for city saving not highway.. on highway engine will work like normal car for both movement and charging.. on heavy acceleration - motor will kick in to bring you extra power.. the engine will turn off only on low speed in city drive.Considerations:

Pure battery drive may goes up to 80kmh or 100kmh (to be clarified this).. unlike BMW PHEV it can goes up to 140kmh on pure battery.
of cos you will still get saving over same class model like accord or mazda 6. the unit my friends own easily hit 20km/l over mix driving
lastly if you can afford get a new car. the second hand car you never know why it was sold by the previous owner, it could be battery failure. Even it gets cheaper over time but the replacement cost easily goes beyond RM10k.. better if you can get a good mechanic to help you check the car you are about to buy
