What oil does a 2026 Toyota Camry take?

The 2026 Camry is hybrid-only (9th gen); its 2.5L A25A-FXE hybrid engine requires 0W-16 Full Synthetic, about 4.7 qts with filter, changed roughly every 10,000 miles per the Oil Life Monitor. Verify the spec against the 2026 owner's manual, but 0W-16 (not 0W-20) is the requirement for this engine.

Does a 2026 Toyota Camry need transmission fluid changes?

No traditional service. The 2026 Camry uses a sealed e-CVT (Toyota Hybrid System), so there is no scheduled drain-and-fill - the fluid is inspected around 60,000 miles. There is no WS ATF or conventional CVT fluid service for this hybrid powertrain.

How much does it cost to maintain a 2026 Toyota Camry?

About $400-$550 per year (roughly $4,500-$6,000 over 10 years). The hybrid-only 2026 Camry has the lowest running cost in the Camry's history - regenerative braking extends pad life and the HV battery is warranted 10 years/150,000 miles (transferable). Document service from day one to protect that warranty.
