Mine's older, a 2013 Hybrid, but a month into it there's no comparison. Just put your foot down, and elegantly drive away from anything that bothers you, and not even spill your tea. It's ... civilized.

yung kaibigan ko nagtry westlake 5 years sa innova, malambot, makapit naman daw.
That said, I’ve had a good experience with the discount tire house branded “Rocky Mountain” tires. They’re 3 peak rated M/S tires. And road noise is not bad at all. I don’t even hear it. I have about 15k on them over the last year or so.
Ecvt is amazing. I'm a mechanical engineer and bought a 25 Camry hybrid AWD. I actually bought it before I knew how the Ecvt worked and after digging into it I was blown away. Digging into it from an engineering perspective without going into complete detail, this is the most elegant and robust way I've ever seen to do power delivery on a vehicle. And it does so in a way that actually makes the system less complex removing the need for a dedicated starter and alternator for the internal combustion engine. Even braking is done with Regen braking recovering energy and transitioning flawlessly to the mechanical brakes when needed meaning you will change brake pads much less often also. I love the way mine feels and reacts to my inputs, 10/10 would absolutely buy again.
I got 25 Camry and love ECVT! Better then Auto!
I had an 8th generation hybrid and it was smooth as butter. No shift shock from stepped gears just seamless acceleration.
The eCVT is much smoother.
I tend to lean dealership if I don't do it myself. I have gone a couple of those places before and I damn near have to break out the screw driver to get the oil filter off.
I have the TRD Rav with the 18” Falken Wildpeak A/T 01A tires (stock). I have 25k miles - almost all highway - and the tires only have 3/32” tread left.
Fortuner, Hilux, Innova using GD engines
1. Alternator pulley & bearing - could happen even to those below 80k odo. Sound can be traced easily. Should replace all bearings inside the alternator.
