Played with the Camry today with my bro in-law. Fun, fun, fun.
Went to a quiet subdivision and tried to figure out how to P&G with it. They've got the base model, without the NAV video game feature, so there's only a small b&w LCD in the gauge cluster that shows energy flow (and a bunch of other stuff).
Trying to achieve "deadband" consistently (no energy flow to or from the battery) - ie. pure gliding - was
very difficult. It would take quite a bit of practice to become sensitive enough to use the pedal to get that state on command.
Also, the thing doesn't have a "trip" FE meter! Toyota: that's just silly. Only current tank (and maybe also lifetime) is available. I guess you could stick a SG2 in it.
So I wasn't able to get a fuel consumption number for my driving. All I know is when we were done, the "eco meter" bar graph that graphically reports on the current trip was maxed out (on the good side). We didn't note the km's on the odo when starting out, so couldn't reliably back-calculate the FE from the change in the tank FE.
The car congratulated me when I shut it off: something like "Excellent!" appeared under the eco meter graph.
Oh - and it's a nice car too.
