How long do Toyota Camrys last?

What the data shows

iSeeCars ranks the Camry third among passenger cars for the share of examples likely to reach 250,000 miles. The study uses average odometer readings at each age to estimate how many cars of each model get that far. Only a handful of SUVs and trucks, most of them also Toyotas, rank higher overall.

Why the Camry lasts

How to get yours to 250,000

• Oil and filter every 10,000 miles or 12 months with 0W-20 synthetic, or every 5,000 under severe use such as short winter trips. Why synthetic.
• Tire rotation and inspection every 5,000 miles; the inspection catches brake, suspension and fluid problems while they are small.
• Coolant, transmission fluid and brake fluid at the intervals in the Warranty & Maintenance Guide, not when they look dirty.
• The 30,000-mile service items on schedule. What the Toyota 30,000-mile service covers.
• Fix small things early: a weeping gasket, a worn bushing, a slow leak in a tire.
• Keep it clean underneath after a salted winter; rust is what retires most Midwestern cars, not engines.

Buying a used Camry

Mileage matters less than history. A 120,000-mile Camry with records and a clean underside is a better buy than a 70,000-mile car that skipped oil changes. Ask for service records, check for rust on the subframe and rocker panels, and have the hybrid battery health checked on hybrid models. Certified pre-owned Camrys add Toyota's own inspection and warranty coverage.
