This is a fantastic video for all 2025 Camry owners. It's the vital information the dealer doesn't have time to share with you... and the information you really need. Thanks, Brian!
We just bought a 2025 XLE FWD Camry and found it overwhelming to try to learn all about the electronic features. This was extremely helpful for those of us who are non-techies. Many thanks Brian. Keep up the great work.
Just purchased same vehicle as this person's reply, your video is Immensely helpful. it so terriffic to stop the video and replay to insure I can halfway remember your explanatiion and direction. As you age it is so true that it is more challenging to learn new information. I definitely want to tailor the vehicle to my preferences, I learned a great deal from your video despite initially pouring over the manuals this is 1000% better instruction.
Thanks Brian, this is just what I needed. It helps to have someone explain what these buttons do. I will be watching this video many times. I do read my manuals, and try to learn one new thing each night. Thanks again.
Brian, you are a blessing! I just bought a 2025 Camry SE after trading in my 2007 Camry. To say things have changed in 18 years would be an understatement. 😂Your tutorial has been so helpful to me. I will be watching your related 2025 Camry videos as well. I’ve been reading the manual, but your video has been the best I’ve watched to help me really learn these new features. THANK YOU!
Thank you Brian for another great video! Every new Toyota owner must watch these as they are VERY helpful! I wish you a speedy recovery and a very healthy and happy future!
The new 2025 Toyota Camry Hybrid is my fourth Camry Hybrid... I love this car! It's a bit daunting at first but your video is excellent. I may have to review it again to pick up on the little details that I may have missed. THANKS!!☘
Absolutely loved the tutorial. I traded in my 2017 Camry but the 2025 SE Hybrid had a lot more features. I feel very informed. No sign of a heated steering wheel but won't need it since I live in Florida.
Brian, This is an amazing video. Thank you so much for the detail you included. I just purchased the 2025 Camry and have every intention of maximizing the features available. My last vehicle purchase was my 2014 Prius, which I still own and hubby drives. Needless to say, many of these options, features, and controls are alien to me. Reading the 3" thick manual just isn't happening either. So, thank you! Your work is appreciated!
@@brianruperti I have the black in black Toyota Camry SE and I love it. I like all the safety features and the smooth ride. It feels powerful when you accelerate. Interiors are great too. The best sedan in my opinion.
Bought this car a couple days ago and I love it you can remote start , lock doors open trunk check tire pressure,vehicle health and so much more through the Toyota app its amazing
Beaut video mate thank you. Just picked up our new Camry Assent Sport here in Australia. I only have to reverse everything as our wheel in on the right LOL. Very clear and helpful mate, beats reading over 200 pages in the owners manual.
This was a very interesting and informative video. Your explanations are excellent. I just ordered a Crown, but It looks like the Camry buttons layout is very similar. I will watch this video multiple times.
I just bought one of these, I was trying to learn more about the PDS asssit. the author describes it as slowing you down on curves and I don't think it does that at all. what it does does is work in conjunction with the adaptive cruise control in seeing vehicles you are approaching and applies the regen. braking even when you are not actively using cruise control. So, when driving in normal traffic when it visualizes a car ahead it starts apply brakes (assumed to be regen brakes) and slows you down. It will not bring you to a stop and it will warn you if you fail to apply the brakes when you get dangerously close to a stopped car.
@erikreppe6212 my apologies I said during turns but it is during driving turns or straight. Thank you for raising awareness to my mistake I appreciate it!
It’s great tutorial . One thing I wish you mention is how to turn off the thief alarm and what trigger it. I dont know how to stop it so it would be great tutorial . Thank you
Very informative video! 🙏🏼 I don't know if it's possible to unlock back center seatbelt in order to install seat covers, it doesn't have that tiny key space nor a release button that shows Does anyone know? Thank you!! 💕
Wow very informative. Just subscribe. I got my car a month ago and still learning lol. I really don't have time to read the book but watching this helps alot. But I'm Ole skool, doesn't a light come on when u open the door? I knw I'm going to watch this several times but thank u 😊
The PDA feature is a Royal PIA here in WV where all roads are curves and the damned thing keeps slowing us down. We are used to curves and wish not to slow down for them when on curise control on the freeway. When turned off, JOY, but next drive it is actice again; is there a way to PERMANENTLY disable it?
Hi! Thanks for this video it’s very helpful. I’m having trouble finding the interior light settings? I don’t want the lights to turn on when I open my doors. Thank you!
My 2025 Camary SE doesn’t have heated seats or steering wheel, what’s up with that? Still love the car but should have done my homework on the features.
Hi, thanks for an excellent video. I cannot tell you how helpful this is in understanding all these functions. I do have a question. The first couple of tanks I got 48 to 51 mpg. The last three only 42 or 43. I did not change any settings. Could the settings have anything to do with it?
No it may just be dialing in and getting more accurate, or your drive has changed, the weather has changed, your tire pressure has changed, your comfortable w the car and driving a little zippier, many factors.
Hello Brian, I bought this 2025 Camry SE a few weeks ago. It is my first car. The auto-dimming rearview mirror works well during the day, but at night, it's too dark, and I can’t see clearly. Is there a way to turn it off or adjust the settings?
@@brianruperti Yes, exactly. Or maybe you can demonstrate how to mirror your smartphone screen to your car's infotainment system - which could actually be another decision.
The dimmer is a button on left of dash, you can also watch my linked tutorial on the screen where we go into the settings and discuss turning it off and changing brightness
@@brianruperti Brian does "eco mode" give you better gas mileage than "normal mode" or "sport mode" and if so, can you leave it in "eco mode" even when driving on the highway? Thank you.
I absolutely love my 2024 Camry XSE!!! I'm just wondering if it has the sensors when you're too close to an object? My 2018 Camry alerted you with all the things..which I despised and loved at the same time, can someone help me?
Very informative Brian! Is there any way to have the dashboard state the name of the street you are driving on when you have the compass displayed like in other cars I have had?
How's going, pretty awesome Video .At 5:27 you showed the time on the dashboard, how could I change that? my camry it's been 6/h+ since I got it. Thanks

Big congrats!
drove one and MAN OH MAN it is NICE!!! Currently trying to help my daughter buy a SE AWD.
Se AWD ftw!
@@brianruperti yup. She needs something safe. The Honda fit isn’t it. Especially after someone ran the stop sign and hit her and totaled our rav4.
Very informative love it seeing I had a 2003 camry before this one
Thank you for taking your time and doing these video things we don't know. It's really helpful ❤
You are so welcome!

Awesome!!! Thanks Brian

Thank you! Very thorough...
Thanks for watching!
Is there a setting to remove the chime on the seat belt?
Not that I’m aware of
Very well done! Thanks
Thank you!
Is there a lockable glovebox on the 2025 Camry SE? Some internet searches stated there is. However, I don't see a key hole for a lock.
I haven’t seen one with a lock yet
Thank you for demonstrating how to turn off the check the rear seat notification
You're welcome!
Thanks for the vid. Just got the LE.
Congrats!!
@ thank you. 🙏🏼
Thank you and yes, 5000 mile oil changes. Would never go 10000
What is the best setting for the headlights? They seem so bright making me think i have them on high beam
Welcome to the club. Lights just get brighter every year until we are all blind and then the self driving cars will drive us blind people around 😎
For the auto-dimming rear view mirror, is there a way to change how dark it gets? Kinda hard to see at night with a tinted back window.
No way to adjust. Either on or off.
@ thank you for the prompt reply. can I turn off the dimming feature completely ? If so, how?
Excellent!
Thanks!

The PDA has DA which is deceleration assist. This will decelerate your vehicle during turns while working with SA which is steering assist.
@@brianruperti ok but it does that driving a straight line too detecting a vehicle in front of you and slowing
@erikreppe6212 my apologies I said during turns but it is during driving turns or straight. Thank you for raising awareness to my mistake I appreciate it!
I am trying to figure this out too. I have the 2025 camry SE. It also does it in my daughters 2024 corolla. I don't like it at all
Thank you bro🙏😭
🤝
The dial types are nice and all but I still prefer to have both tachometer with the speedometer how would u know if you’re hitting the top speed?
The car stops accelerating.
It’s great tutorial . One thing I wish you mention is how to turn off the thief alarm and what trigger it. I dont know how to stop it so it would be great tutorial . Thank you
Thank you. I don’t even know, myself!
At 13:03, the oil maintenance, can you customize it to 5k miles?
Great question I don’t know that one! I’ll dig into the book.
THANK you! I almost didn't get this because I hate not having the tachometer look!
Thanks for watching!

Hello Brian, what will be the difference between the SE and XSE safety features?
Hello, they both have Toyota safety sense but the XSE can get driver monitor camera and blind spot monitor
@brianruperti thank you for your reply!
Any insight on the sit up feature? Can you turn it off?
Yes you can go into the MID and then of the DMC (driver monitor camera)
Apparently there's no option to show a more traditional speedometer with dial on the SE, right?
You can alter the style slightly as shown in the video
Hi! Thanks for this video it’s very helpful. I’m having trouble finding the interior light settings? I don’t want the lights to turn on when I open my doors. Thank you!
“Door” button above your head
How do you turn on the back seat ac ??? I just got my 2025 SE
Camrys equipped with rear torso vent have active airflow when the driver has AC on. All Camrys have the floor vent.
Very nice video
Thanks
Is there anyway to make the car beep when getting closer to an object?
You need an XSE or XLE with parking sonar
My 2025 Camary SE doesn’t have heated seats or steering wheel, what’s up with that? Still love the car but should have done my homework on the features.
You didn’t get one with the weather package.
@ so many packages to choose from thanks and your right, my bad!

Very helpful video. I was frustrated trying to get some of the settings info off my cluster. How do you turn off the recharge beeping when braking?
Glad to help. I never heard a recharge beeping while braking
@@brianruperti it’s a very subtle beeping during recharge. It sounds high tech but I’m not fond of hearing car noises
Do they have alarm system?
Yes
I've noticed that sometimes my compass will display and sometimes it will not display. Any idea why this is?
Hmm not sure
Do you know how to access the hidden dealership/manufacturer menu?
I don’t
I need this i just got the 25 camry se and the equipments inside is pretty confusing
Thank you so much for this video, I had a question if it is possible to remove the seatbelt warning for the back seats on this car?
Thanks for watching. Not to my knowledge.
Hello Brian,
I bought this 2025 Camry SE a few weeks ago. It is my first car. The auto-dimming rearview mirror works well during the day, but at night, it's too dark, and I can’t see clearly. Is there a way to turn it off or adjust the settings?
Hello yes there is a power button on the button of the mirror
@@brianruperti I don’t see any other buttons besides 3 Home Link buttons. 🤔
Would you explain how to watch RUclips videos on a car infotainment system display?
Not sure how because it doesn’t come optional. This would be while parked obviously right?
@@brianruperti Yes, exactly. Or maybe you can demonstrate how to mirror your smartphone screen to your car's infotainment system - which could actually be another decision.
@andriiprymak3012 to mirror the phone to screen just connect to Bluetooth and allow CarPlay or android auto
How to do you dim or turn off the display w/o turning off the Apple car play or anything important
The dimmer is a button on left of dash, you can also watch my linked tutorial on the screen where we go into the settings and discuss turning it off and changing brightness
@@brianruperti I was talking about the the infotainment system, not the gauge cluster
Brian, should you leave a 2025 Toyota Camry Hybrid SE FWD in "Eco Mode" all the time or in "Normal Mode"?
Hey there I would recommend whichever mode you enjoy more in that moment. I like sport mode most of the time, but on my chill days I do normal or eco.
@@brianruperti Brian does "eco mode" give you better gas mileage than "normal mode" or "sport mode" and if so, can you leave it in "eco mode" even when driving on the highway? Thank you.

By any chance do you have a video on the key fob options?
Would you elaborate plz
@@brianruperti Thanks. I'm curious what functionality it comes with and what has been gimped with an upgrade cost - e.g. windows, moonroof etc.
How do you change the time on the cluster
Change the time in the settings on the radio screen and it will transfer to cluster
How you change the clock?
Settings>general>date time
Very informative Brian! Is there any way to have the dashboard state the name of the street you are driving on when you have the compass displayed like in other cars I have had?
Thank you! It should do that on models that have the Toyota integrated navigation. I believe this is not on the SE.
@@brianruperti Thank you.
Brian does the 2025 Toyota Camry Hybrid SE FWD have navigation and is it voice command?
It only has navigation with the connection of your smartphone via Apple CarPlay or android auto and it is voice command yes.
@@brianruperti Thank you Brian.
do you have a video on parking assist?
