I'll be getting the cheapest LE as my daily to replace my current one. It has the nicest and smoothest ride quality of the bunch due to the thick rubber. I had an SE and driven the XSE and both are much louder...prolly due to the rubber band tires and "sportier" suspension tuning. No thanks.....no point in making a car something it will never be.
Very good point. These wheels also get stolen, more likely to be bent, scratched. No point
That was my thought on it too. The dealership nearest me is getting a couple of SEs in soon but no LEs. The fuel mileage is worse on SE over LE and it's only because of upgraded wheels. So the car cost more, gets worse fuel mileage, and will now cost more to replace the tires on.

This car is running rings around the honda accord
Facts!!
This car couldn't run rings around a turtle now just stop it.
@@kellyaustin7487 Yet, all reviewers have called it quick and sporty, including Throttle House (who are very honestly critical of cars)?
But Honda will update the Accord to be more competitive. Historically, the Accord has always been the more athletic of the 2, and that's why it's won the most Car & Driver 10Best awards in history (35+ annual awards).
Not a fan of the accord. Direct injection and turbo is no good for reliability
One of the few all-black 2025 Camry videos so far -- great review!
Toyota decimated the all-new 9th Gen. 2025 Camry. It's lame, slow, ugly, and a Hybrid.
@@richscott2483 I love it.
Brian had to be loving the room and comfort for a big person. I bought a 24 Camry based on room and comfort vs. efficiency at 6’3. I’ve never been this comfortable in a vehicle, ever.
I'm 5'11" and my 2023 Camry XSE V6 is good for my height. My brother is 6'5" and hates getting in and out of my Camry. I am Glad you like the leaning and head roll-tilt getting into your Camry because anyone taller than 6 feet tall, would be better off looking at something roomier with more head clearance.
Just rushed and got the 2024 XSE V6. So happy I reserved the last V6
Yeah, but it gets half the gas mileage of this.
I’m in Canada and was told there’s no V6 left and Toyota halted production a few months back.
@@ytsux9259v6 has a 0-60 is 5.8 seconds. Fuel economy isn't everything.
@@BrianNC81for a Camry, fuel economy is more important than 0-60
Why just get a Lambo if you want real speed lol
I own two Toyota Hybrids, both XLE (2012 Camry, 2024 Corolla) and the luxury trims are my preference over the sport trims. While sport mode is nice, and this Camry has nice styling for the sport and especially the executive sport, I find that the comfort of the XLE outweighs the fun of the XSE for me. It’s been more practical.
This Camry makes me very disappointed I couldn’t wait for it to launch. We got the Corolla late last year to replace a car that was having issues that decreased safety, which is not okay for my family but the repairs were far too much. I don’t regret fixing that issue, and now we have two Toyotas (I don’t miss my Chevrolet at all, regardless of how sporty and fun it was to drive!) so there’s no room to complain. That being said: owning a 2012 Camry and 2024 Corolla, the only things I prefer about the Corolla is the newer hybrid system and the suite of driver assistance features. (Corolla XLE premium package can adapt speed and take corners on its own - not “self-driving,” but great driver assists!) For everything else, I like the 2012 Camry more despite its age and dated interior. 190,000 miles and still going strong!
This is missing the rain sensing wipers and memory seats from the XLE
All cost cutting measures by Toyota. Trying to compete with the Chinese brands I guess.
@@ksd9756 lol huh? What Chinese brands is this going up against in America?
Memory seats and rain sensing wipers are on the XLE premium package.
@@ytj22 Not in the US but globally. They design one Camry for the whole world based on Toyota's TNGA platform. In all those markets they have to compete with Chinese brands.
@@ksd9756 This Camry was designed by TMNA at Toyota's Calty studios in California. The car you see in the video is for North America, is not competing with Chinese brands and has memory seats and rain sensing wipers available on the XLE premium package. I'm familiar with how Toyota's global artform works. 👍
The LE is already 28k starting. Camrys going into the 40k range for XSE/XLE with options that YOU WOULD WANT.
I'm waiting for the Camry TRD
Hopefully, they use the Crown Max engine since Crowns aren't selling well.
If they could make an AWD 5 second 0-60 TRD that runs a upper 12's in the quarter mile it would be a real winner.
They should make camry awd 0-60 in 3 seconds low 10's to quarter mile now thats a winner
camry with iMAX IM WAITING FOR !!
@@bigdavedayday1581 Just buy the new Tesla M3P if that's what you want. Around $45k with the $7500 tax credit.
The Toyota Crown is a Clown. The Avalon did not sell well, replaced by the Crown the Clown. Hope it is not produced next year.
There will not be a 9th Gen. Camry TRD.
I have a 2023 Camry XSE V6 fully loaded, BTW you would be very disappointed with a Camry TRD, you could always modify to body, buy the accessories, and make a XSE V6 to look like the TRD but only better. The Camry TRD is rather pathetic, but it is $6k to $8k cheaper.
Could go with an Audi RS3, Honda Civic Type-R, Lexus ES-350, and Acura Integra Type S. Then there is the Chevrolet Camaro.
I’m sorry no Camry should be priced over 30 grand
Great vehicle for the family, with great gas mileage and engine, if it is not turbocharged. I have the 2023 Lexus ES300h Ulta Luxury Trim with the naturally aspirated 2.5-liter engine the fourth-generation hybrid drivetrain. She gets 42+ MPG in and around town and about 40+ MPG on road trips.
That car really looks spectacular
The Camry should go from 0-60 in 6.9 seconds with just the 5'9" driver alone. The heavier the weight, the slower the car. The 6' 4" person must weigh 240-250 lbs. Lol
It's rated @ low 6s.
@@ytsux9259where did you see low 6s?
Redline got high 6s low 7s.
It can thank it's batteries and electric motors ... this is what Highlander with 3 rows use to weight . And extra cost at purchase price! How is this economic when you end up paying 5K more for it and before it was getting 30mpg now it gets 40mpg in real world ???
They just create a illusion that it is worth all the extra price and weight... in reality they made it more expensive and Camry buyer who wants to keep it 10, 15, 20 years will never get there due to all these electric complications and wit extra electronics . Camry buyer wants plain Jane lasting forever and this will not and it costs premium dollar .
@@kdomster9141 A current gen XLE AWD Highlander with the V6 that is no longer made weighs around 4375lbs; the Hybrid XLE is around 4515lbs. The 2025 Camry is absolutely not what the the Highlander use to weigh. In fact, even the very first generation Highlander was almost 3800lbs. The XSE AWD 2025 Camry Toyota says weighs 3538lbs, so nearly 1000lbs less than the Hybrid current generation Highlander.
While the Camry for sure isn't cheap, nothing is cheap anymore. And to be honest, for what you get, the Camry offers quite a bit for your money. Don't want to spend all the money and still get most of the driving experience? MSRP with destination of the LE trim is $29495 with FWD or $31020 with AWD. That's more than $10k cheaper than the current average price of a new car sold in the USA. If anything, we should be thankful that the Camry exists at this price point with all the features, safety, physical buttons, etc. it has.
Regarding electronics, even Camry's from the 2000's and 2010's had electronics. Toyota is arguably the most stout when it comes to their hybrid technology. Whether we like it or not, all the automakers are pushing technology into even the most pedestrian of cars today. Don't like it? Buy an old Camry. I still see early 2000's Prius's on the road by me and I'm in the snow/salt belt. If anything, unless you're undercoating your car, salt is going to rot out the car before the car is finished working.
Now anything European and hybrid, that is another story.
An LE with 16” wheels and with AWD, should do low to mid 6 seconds 0-60. All while averaging 50 MPG combined.
I’ll keep my 2023 Honda Accord hybrid sport. I have a tall family and need extra room.
For those of you shopping a new Prius but you contort yourself to get in and out, this is your car. Toyota effectively took the bones from the last Camry and un-uglied it, inside and out. Sorry to see the V6 die, but with one available powertrain, Toyota is going to keep the price reasonable through streamlining the manufacturing process. AWD won't be expensive because the rear wheels are electric driven and there is no mechanical connection with the engine. All are hybrids and your new car payment won't be so bad when you are getting close to 50mpg.
but the 8th Gen. Camry exterior and interior design is a billion times better than the 9th Gen. 2025 Camry which is lame, slow, and Ugly. The 2 pluses for 2025 are the Full Digital Instrument Cluster display and Toyota Safety Sense 3.0. Toyota decimated the 9th Gen. Camry.
Glad they got rid of the rear drip vents that came down from the rear taillights
nah those were so sexy
this car will still be around in 2050.
It's good that the black color was shown. Handsome is a good video
To each his own. I hate cars with a black exterior color. Dark red is my favorite color.
Great review guys!
I love this new one a lot but I still love my 2022 too 😂
Grandparents everywhere are dropping their canes over this one 🤣
Lol😂
That's stupid,, this car is too cool for most of them, they drive the Buick encore and Chevy equinox
You're thinking Buick.
I'm 70 and drive a Hyundai Kona N.
Avalon😂@@wolflarson71
These wheels are gonna be targeted. Gonna install some sort of wheels lock for them.
Get the cone shaped wheel locks by Advanced Wheel Locks. They’re practically impossible to get a bite on them with a socket and they’re harden steel, I guess that’s why you can’t get a bite on them and they’re not cheap.
They’ll come will wheel locks from the factory
What about the crash test? Where is it?
Ouch! the notorious, dangerous, and defective OEM Bridgestone Turanza EL440 tires on the Camrys. When is Toyota going to stop using bad tires? Apparently, Toyota does not care about your life. All should have the Michelin Primacy MXM4 if anything.
If they could build a sub 6 second or dare I say sub 5 second 0-60 TRD AWD they would have a real winner. Bigger battery, bigger electric motors could make that happen without losing a lot of fuel efficiency. Maybe toss a 200hp electric motor on the back wheels.
Apparently there’s a hybrid max in testing, using the 2.4l turbo w/electric motors same engine as Crown, 0-60 in 5 sec. That would be a true replacement for the 6 cylinder. Hopefully with an actual transmission too.
@@mervinprone that would be great 👍
They had a sub 6 second Camry with the TRD V6 and it didn't sell very well. This will likely be a winner without it.
@@ytj22 It’s true if you say so. The TRD V6 is sold out for 2024. V6 Camry was never their bestseller but it was the star.
@@mervinprone They haven't built a 2024 Camry for about a month now so the limited number of TRD V6 they had would likely all be gone by now. Wish I would have snagged one myself, great car, just not a huge seller.
Every review I've read said XSE is a quiet cabin ride. Every review. But for some reason this test drive mentions noise from 19 inch tires. Wonder if these guys had there windows down?
All windows were up. It’s just the nature of rural Texas highways. We drove several vehicles this day, this was not the quietist, but certainly not the loudest. Thanks for watching.
sorry.. but i still love my 2019 toyota camry~
41K !!!! Are they nuts!
Hope it sits on dealer lots like Thundra and Tacoma with 78K stickers , what a joke and it does not bother any of these paid for "reviewers" .
They should continue with true and trusted plain Jane version without hybrid with normal 8 speed transmission for 26K .
Welcome to inflation. At least the base LE is $29500-31000. Accord is similarly priced. Hell, a BRZ/GR86 is the same mid 30's, as is the Miata, which is obviously not a practical car at all haha. We sadly live in a world where the hottest of hatches (Corolla GR, Golf R, CTR) are all $40+k.
@@g60corrado91 absolutely, once people can't afford them and dealer lots will be full than all the sudden this 35K Camry will be sold for 26K .
They should lower the top trim prices by 3K and bottom LE trim down to 27K .
@@kdomster9141 you’re singling out Toyota/the Camry, but this is a much bigger issue. They’re all guilty of it. I agree that the bubble is going to collapse sooner than later at the rate we’re headed. But at least this is an everyday car that you can commute in and use as a family.
What’s really wild to me is how vehicles like Tahoe’s, Expeditions, and then americas most sold vehicle, the F150 are all commanding more than $50-60k. Loaded trims closer to $70-80k. When does it end?
Options have never been cheap. But if you can forgo the additional safety equipment, ventilated seats, pano roof, JBL audio, etc. then with destination, an AWD XSE is closer to $36k MSRP. I guess when I see Miata prices at that or higher, that’s where it’s slightly easier to swallow given what I said in the beginning that this car can do it all. Miata’s definitely can’t. Believe me. I daily drove my ND1 for a couple of years 🤣
@@g60corrado91 The base model is 400 dollars cheaper than the outgoing Camry Hybrid.
@@collinparsons3363 yup. I was looking at the prices of 2021 Mazda6’s when they were new and I think they topped out near $36-$37k, so even in the last 4 model years, prices have gone up even more. But I guess for the content you’re getting and the $42k loaded version having AWD, it’s kind of still “in line” with the inflation.
Race an 8th Gen. 2021-2024 Camry XSE V6 against the new 9th Gen. 2025 Camry XSE Hybrid.
Toyota…..please get rid of the cheesy gloss-black plastic.
前代のパーツ流用なんだって‼️
Wonder why that hood is so heavy?
Lightweight aluminum hoods warp in the wind.
@@majed6956 my last 5 cars would disagree. I just find it odd almost all the reviewers are surprised by how heavy it is. Cost cutting most likely
@@JamaicanMeCrazy My wife's CX-50, her last Accord Hybrid, both had aluminum hoods. Lightweight and I can literally watch the metal flutter when you drive above 40 MPH. My Volvo with a heavy steel hood? Steady and solid. I believe that from behind the wheel seeing the hood flutter gives a subtle feeling of cheapness, this thing will look solid to your peripheral vision. Cost cutting is probably the shiny black plastic. LOL. Take it easy.
@@MrSocktown this is so interesting. I wonder if anyone will look into this cuz you and I have been different experiences with aluminum bonnets. I've never seen my boner flex or friend at speed.
When the 2025 Camry Hybrid catches on fire and blows up, you got yourself a hoodie.

VISIBILITY--tiny windows, relatively to 90s and 2000s Camry. How's the visibility in these newer Camry's ? ? ? :-(
This is a great vehicle. Great MPG Great Visibility on all sides. Safe in any weather
I had a Canry for 7 years and it was like wearing a pair of old shoes it was that good. I just don’t want to be stuck with something this plain for another 7 lol
What u thinking of getting now?
No front trunk??????
Last gen had an aluminum hood vs steel and struts vs prop rod. Just sayin.
We need a max of 340 horsepower the car still slow since there is no v6,
So, same 0 to 60 as the prius
Did you just use the word “bespoke” on a Camry? 🤣🤣
The previous Camry XSE also had available all-wheel-drive with the four-cylinder
Not w the hybrid tho
With no hybrid option. This brings the best of both worlds!
@@jxmar_hybrid is trash
@@dfhhtyu3434to be fair. The hybrid system is very very good. I’ve been in examples with 679,000km (425,000 miles) with the original battery still working perfectly and the engine sounding brand new 👌
2019 Model year 2.5 hybrid 218hp
This Camry does not have differential. It's just electric motor to run the back wheels, so less maintenance
The front is terrible. this new camry is boring, only thing great is the interior console upgrades. i’ll stick to my 22’ XSE v6. As far as saving on gas, nothing beats working from home 😊
Topgun transportation device for old people.
My grandpa fell out of his wheelchair when he saw this and said he’d buy one but doesn’t drive anymore. 😢
The fat guy is slowing the 0-60 time. (And 2 people) 🐢
Overall a great review! 👍
Until they mentioned it, it does have a slight catfish design.
I bet a skinny driver can get it slightly under 7 seconds.
0-60 times are invalid due to you applying the brake torquing technique, real life acceleration times are more closer 8 second range.
Is it really important in real life?
@@123antimiro yes it is why ? 🫤
@@123antimiro It's important if you're a teenager borrowing your parent's car. Grown individuals only care that it moved easily through traffic. Which it does.
2024 Camry hybrid is faster! F the 2025 model
cars are becoming way too expensive
Ferrari beater. They will think haha
you guys are trippin if you think that front end looks better, they took a major step back with that front
I don't buy sedans because I like big butts.
It's not about the height of the driver/passengers. Even if you're 6'5 you can still sit comfortably without hitting the roof. It'll only be a problem if you're over 6' tall with phatt ass. I'm 6'1 and my phatt housemate is 5'7 but we are equally level sitting side by side because he has a Lizzo standard of thickness. Don't blame the car if you're swallowing everything like a p!g.
On a positive note,the new Camry encourages us to stay healthy and live longer without having to deal with health complications.
Accord touring is better imo, but thats a 40k trim
The 2025 Camry XSE Hybrid FWD fully loaded MSRP of near $42,000 and includes the Destination fee.
My 2023 Camry XSE V6 fully loaded MSRP of $41,305 and includes the destination fee.

The 10th Gen. Honda Accord Touring 2.0 Turbo was on par with the 8th Gen. Camry XSE V6.
However, Honda decimated the 11th Gen. Accord.

GORGEOUS.. BUT---why the interior gotta be alllll black??? PEOPLE, IS THIS REALLY WHAT YOU WANT? DON'T YOU WANT THE BEIGE AND GRAY INTERIORS OF YEARS PAST? I guess not, KIDS THESE DAYS, AMIRITE????
