By the "New Car Features" spec it is still the U340E 4 speed auto that has been used in all previous USDM Yaris.

What's wrong with the Camry auto?

Nothing wrong with the 6-speed Camry transmission, but it's not as intelligent as the 4-speed Yaris automatic. Unlike the Yaris, it's not always as smooth shifting and occasionally hunts for the gear. The Yaris upshifts and downshifts flawlessly. I can't say the same for the Camry.
