I've driven several generations of the Camry before, mostly all automatic transmissions, from older models to the newer ones. Currently, the Camry models available in the market, whether hybrid or gasoline versions, almost all come standard with automatic transmissions. Manual transmission Camrys, I recall, only appeared in some early versions, like models from the early 2000s, but they were rare in markets like China. Driving an automatic is more hassle-free, especially in traffic jams where you don't have to shift gears frequently, which is a plus for urban commuters. With the rapid advancement in modern automotive technology, manual transmissions are gradually being phased out, even taxis mostly use automatics now. If you're really keen on buying a manual, you might have to look for older models in the used car market, but be cautious about engine maintenance and such. In short, the Camry is primarily automatic for daily driving, making it a safe and comfortable choice.
