I also recently swapped into something a lot cushier for work.
Totally get it now - pretty relaxing feeling hopping in and across the bridge with adaptive cruise after a long day.






Pros:
  • Comfort: Ride quality is really cushy. Great visibility with the wing mirrors and sloped down windows
  • Drive: Controls (brake, steering) have natural feeling weight, and it now takes a corner with some liveliness! There's definitely some directness and connectedness - doesn't feel a sloppy couch that's rolling over itself like past Camrys.
  • Electronics: Headlights are fuck you bright, 2019 has Carplay.

Cons:
  • Powertrain: The 8 speed is quite jerky especially when cold.
  • Interior has some weird cost cutting tradeoffs as well (full auto up-down windows, but no heated mirrors until XLE trim, no trunk closing handle, etc.)

Quite like they've done with the new gen Camry. Would want to drive a 10G Accord and 2.5T Mazda 6 to see how it compares.
