The 4cyl camry, with the 8 speed and 206 hp 4 cyl engine 2018 year up, should do 35 mpg pretty consistently... my rental camry a few years back (had the 178 hp 4 cylinder) got about 34 mpg going 80mph from Montreal right through Chicago and back.. That car kept up well and i never thought it was a slouch. Id opt for a 2018-2019 Camry in your situation. Will have ample space yet great mpg and very low maintenance costs. Good luck!
Hard to believe 35 MPG in a 2.5L Camry.
The fiancée and I take pretty frequent trips in her Civic HB 6MT 1.5T, and we aren't hitting 35 MPG. Usually around 33 MPG.
