I just brought one. The drive, comfort, look and fuel economy were great. The red interior is sharp. It drove better than Lexus IS plus it’s AWD AND A HYBRID.!!!
I traded my 2024 4Runner for a new SE Camry. It’s incredible! The new 2.5L is amazing and a blast to drive. You make amazing content. Love the tours of the Tahara plant. Thanks for the content.
Bought two 2025 Camry SEs recently. Best midsize vehicle I have ever driven. Former multiple Accord and Altima purchaser. Nothing comes close to all the features you get. You would have to pay $38,000 to $40,000 for an upscale Accord to get the same features. Not only that but the styling and comfortability exceed everything I have driven in this class. It is truly Lexus quality.
and 60-80k for similar level in BMW, Audi and Mercedes! I went Lexus as it was not that much more than a fully loaded Camry. So good! Was tired of money pit German cars!
@hassansmw5634 yup it’s crazy how Toyota basically “downsized” the engines in their bigger vehicles except for the Camry Hybrid. The grand Highlander has a similar setup to the Camry. The Camry is definitely overbuilt and that’s why they last so long. You’d think the new Camrys would’ve gotten the Corolla setup but they still put the 2.5 in it. Lol
I've got the V6 previous model. The power train is amazing, I'm keeping mine as it can't be replaced moving forward. Great video, Camry is not boring, it just does the job without any fuss.....
The insurance on my hybrid is double that of my previous car. I wonder if it has something to do with the hybrid? If so, hang on to your V6, it is a keeper.
their best engine and tragedy Toyota got rid of it in favor of placating the UN/WEF Green commie climate crazies. We need to revoke CAFE and EPA standards. Make larger engines and oil production great again. EV cars suck!
@coniccinoc That has more to do with the insurance company and the car's flat value, this hybrid system is one of the most durable drive-trains in the world, though that v6 is pretty darn close. With really good care, I have no doubt it will go over 300k miles with ease with little fuss, plus it has a ton of safety features.
Definitely agree, with the driving dynamic assessment. Its phenomenal. I daily an M8 competition, and when i drove the new Camry i was floored with the balance of the chasis, and the smoothness of the transmission
Our 2025 XLE AWD is now at 8k. It's a very quiet, comfortable ride indeed, though the seats are somewhat hard, taking a few minutes to get used to, and lacking side support. Not uncomfortable though. The brakes are the best I've ever experienced; great feel. We are at just over 47 mpg over 20 tank fills, now dropping a little as the cold weather kicks in. The car warms up quickly too in freezing temps. When you need acceleration, it really delivers; very punchy! I don't like the Dynamica fabric trim. It should be leather in an XLE. Overall, an awesome sedan. ❤
@raagtop363 Try to be more understanding and less dismissive. I’m going to list the advantages of the 16” wheels: A. Tires are cheaper. B. Tires and wheels less likely to die after hitting a frost heave. C. Better ride. D. Quieter ride E. Better fuel economy F. Better in snow and rain. G. Far less likely to be stolen. H. You are less likely to be stopped by Johnny Law. I. Less likely to get curb rash. Advantages of wheel upgrades: A. Better looking. B. Better *dry* handling C. Maybe better resale unless they have curb rash, which is common. My LE has both available packages - Convenience and Cold Weather and has everything I need. I would have preferred the handling upgrade from the SE, but I didn’t want the wheels.
I bought a camry se 2025 back in December, and so far I have 8k miles on it and, so far its the best car I've ever driven. Really smooth and great on gas
I got mine last September and have over 17,000 miles without any problems. Great gas mileage about 42-45 mpg in city and more on interstate with cruise control and slower driving. Net result it’s great but a little boring for my taste! I’m trading for more fun and more features. Going for a BMW 230i Coupe with rear wheel drive. I ordered the non M Sport design without stiffer suspension. I want the better handling and sportier feel and styling. Plus I found the Camry too big/ long. The 230i is reasonably priced starting at $42k. Without the M Sport options you can buy one for less than $50k.
Hi David. I have never considered buying a Camry as I am an SUV type of guy. But I just bought this Camry, the SE version and everything you mentioned in this great video was on point. It is unbelievable the new Camry. Thank you
Camry the best and most reliable car. My mom bought a new 2015 camry during her 50th birthday, she wasn’t really savvy about cars and she drove it until 2023 with 116,000 miles having only 4 oil changes in its life. It looks 8/10 but maintenance was severely neglected. When trade in comes, the dealer paid market price for it and she is now on a 2024 Highlander. Great car. Toyotas are now Premium cars, gone are the days that they are for the masses.
Tell her to change oil every 5,000 miles. She can put it in her phone Calendar to pop up every 6 months or a year. Very important. Don't wait past 5000 miles.
Looks like a BMW 5/series with the “heavy metal” exterior and black trim. Beautiful design. I own the SE and it drives great. Obviously it’s reliable after 15,000 miles and get crazy good mpg!
I did drive it a few days ago and I was very impressed. I couldn’t even tell that it was a hybrid, but I did and would like was that the leg room behind me was not nearly as good as my Honda record 2015 hybrid.
I bought one of the last TRD’s in Florida about 6months ago. Once I found out no more v6 engine I was all over it. Oh and still has the traditional transmission and analog gauges.
Thanks a lot sir for making this insightful video. In India this is going to be launch in December. And I am excited to see Toyota bringing its one of the best products to us. Cheers!!! Love from India.
If David says it’s good, then it’s good. Thanks for sharing your insights. I have a 2022 Subaru Touring XT that, overall, is a good car. I have my eye on a Lexus IS 350 F Sport, maybe even a Lexus ES 300h. But I’ll have to consider this new Camry.
I hope to find one of these at a dealership that won't try to rip my heart out with their over the top sales techniques. My first Camry was a 1988 and it lasted 21 years.
It’s a great car. Good luck in your search. LE with cold weather and convenience packages or SE for styling plus same packages. Shouldn’t be more than $40k it the door probably about $35k
Just bought a 2026 camry xse with the red interior and heavy medal paint and I must say I really like this car, comfortable seat, nice riding and I live in Quebec so the awd and ride height for the winters is just great! and I do great MPG
Great review, exactly to the key points where the Camry as a American made model shines over European & Asian models. Great review. I will soon replace my aging Mustang GT for this new badass since we plan to do more domestic travels.
@mrnarason I have a 2025 LE and I have been getting between 55-60 mpg. Once I learned how to drive a hybrid for efficiency they almost always do better than their rated.
lescobrandon3047The difference is there’s less of a reason to get rid of it later on. More features in a vehicle that is reliable that it doesn’t make sense to get rid of.
lescobrandon3047 instead of mpg, what miles per tank do you get? I had a 2015 Prius and the computer would report me getting 49-52mpg depending on how I drove, I was always out of gas at 300-320 miles on a tank.
@aviationfrk instead of mpg, what is your miles per tank? I had a 2015 Prius and the computer would report me getting 49-52mpg depending on how I drove, but I was always out of gas at 300-320 miles per tank.
David. Would you consider the new Camry a first year production? You had recently advised avoiding purchasing first year production. Personally, I classified it as a heavy redesign. Then bought one.
Hi David, I am impressed especially with LE. I just wish it had a Hatchback version at LE price. Sedan trunk is just a bad use of space. No one puts anything behind the backseat headrests.
I don't know about the paint quality as he stated. There are numerous issues with it on Reddit. Owners have cited the paint chipping so easily and that the paint is very thin
Camry radio tip: My 2025 LE kept losing Apple Carplay connection. The fix: Press and hold the volume button down for 15 seconds and the radio reboots. Love the car so far.
@rebeccamckenna2378I had my car in for an oil change a month ago and it hasn’t happened since. They either corrected the issue over the air or did something while being serviced. I did not tell them about the issue but it seems fixed now.
Hi David, Thank you so much for sharing such great and detailed information about cars, I really appreciate it! I have a question about my new 2025 Toyota Camry Hybrid. I’ve noticed three different types of sounds from it, two of which make sense to me, but the third one has me puzzled. The first is the electric motor noise, and the second is the sound of the combustion engine kicking in. However, the third sound is similar to the combustion engine but at a higher RPM. During this time, the car feels slightly heavier, and I need to press harder on the accelerator. This usually lasts for about 20 seconds, and right after that, the car switches to EV mode. Could you please explain what might be causing this? Thank you again!
Went from a Lexus 2005 ES 330 to a 2025 XLE about a month ago. Lexus has always had a great ride. Cant beat the comfort, controls, and mpg of the Camry. Only wish that when you open the driver door at night, the door panel buttons light up to show the unlock button to unlock the other doors. Door panellights up when headlights are on. I also wish the JBl stereo was louder.
Mr. Please What about a Corolla se vs Camry le? Besides security and the hybrid, I feel is the same value overall, but you do get synthetic leather and big screens compare to small screens and cloth. Thank you!
When I focus, I get up to 62 mpg on Midwest suburbs without holding up traffic in anyway. Camry LE. Love the 16 in tires sidewall. So smooth over bumps
How are those 16 inch tires on the highway, I'm talking about making a lane change at higher speeds, or any kind of quick maneuver. Does the car tend to sway or feel unstable?
@patrickbercini2718 The 16s recommended pressure is 38psi. They handle great at highway speeds - not as good as the larger rims and wider tires, but not unstable at all. IMO, the 16s should be an upgrade considering all of their advantages.
That's a very surprising verdict as someone that grew up in a Camry! Have you compared it with something similar such as Honda Civic Hybrid? or Accord? Just curious how the two may compare? Thx!
Hi David! When do you think Toyota will put the 5th generation THS in Lexus ESh and Crown Signia? I find it unbelievable that Crown Signia doesn't even have it, as it's the newest flagship from Toyota.
I agree with you on almost EVERY point - except ONE, unfortunately. True, they’re beautiful, relatively affordable, efficient, and even sexy to some degree. But, for Toyota to build their mid-sized (and mid-priced) sedans for close to forty years now with NO rear trunk hinge covers and ugly, raw metal exposed is just … inexcusable in my opinion. They may add $10- of plastic per side to the total cost, true, but would improve the looks, the safety, and the CLASS of their sedans by leaps and bounds! Such a misstep is surprising, and not cool at all. 😢
Really, the trunk hinges have got you that bent out of shape? I bought one and I’m more upset about the effort required to close the damned trunk. I’m 5’8” with SuperFeet insoles and I can’t reach the trunk lid to close it without standing on my toes. And the springs are really strong. And you have to slam the trunk to get it to catch. Those are worth getting upset about, but not enough to write the car off. It’s just something to get accustomed to.
David, You are much more of a world traveler than I will ever be but the last time I checked, Kentucky is substantially closer to Canada than Japan is. For that reason I am confused why Toyota brings the Corolla LE Hybrid all the way across the Pacific but refuses to bring the fabulous Camry LE up from Kentucky*. World famous RUclipsr Kirk Kreifels has repeatedly stated the LE is the Camry to get. With snow falling in Ontario as we speak, surely the Camry LE AWD on comfortable 16" rims is the best one for our four seasons. Only when the Camry is again available as a wagon will I consider the possibility that it is superior to the Crown Signia and I bet AMD will agree with me. 😉😉 * I wonder if our PM just rushed to Florida to arrange free trade in Camry LEs. 🤔
@rightlanehog3151 my question was : why not a rav4 with higher ground clearance for his snowy Canadian winters? The newer tnga camry/all toyota sedans have very low ground clearance and he will damage the bumper on frozen snow mounds left over from plowing. Hence...why not the rav4?
I needed the extra space that an SUV will provide, so I'll wait for the redesigned RAV4 hybrid, hoping that it will have many of the outstanding features found on this Camry.
Toyota Camrys are “overbuilt” compared to other Toyota vehicles and that’s a good thing. They downsized the engines in the bigger vehicles and kept the same size engine in the hybrid Camry. The Toyota Grand Highlander has a 2.5l hybrid engine while the Camry Hybrid has a 2.5l engine. Camrys are hard to beat.
Everything I've heard about it so far is great. It doesn't appear consumer reports has rated the 25 yet, but the prior seemed to get a top rating without spending a ton.
I own an XLE. Would have bought an XSE but I think Toyota made a big mistake in not including the memory seats and mirrors option on the XSE. That was a deal breaker for me.
going from a 2006 Subaru Legacy to my 2025 Camry SE was amazing lol.
I just brought one. The drive, comfort, look and fuel economy were great. The red interior is sharp. It drove better than Lexus IS plus it’s AWD AND A HYBRID.!!!
It's amazing that Toyota has been making a successful car like the Camry for over 40 years. That is truly amazing.
I traded my 2024 4Runner for a new SE Camry. It’s incredible! The new 2.5L is amazing and a blast to drive. You make amazing content. Love the tours of the Tahara plant. Thanks for the content.
100% agree with you! I work at the Toyota for 10 years this is the best Toyota Camry ever makes and I love it
I just bought one. Hard to find without the dealers loading them up with options you might not necessarily want.
Drove a rental 2025 from Detroit Airport, MI to Naperville, IL and back on a single tank of gas. 620 miles. Was blown away.
That must be an exaggeration...
@realiltyno it’s not I got a 2025 XSE and can go almost 500 miles on a tank so with the lower trims the gas mileage is even better
@Lisa-pn1eu 500 sounds more realistic. Do winter numbers drop a lot?
@realilty no not that much
@Lisa-pn1eu thanks
Bought two 2025 Camry SEs recently. Best midsize vehicle I have ever driven. Former multiple Accord and Altima purchaser. Nothing comes close to all the features you get. You would have to pay $38,000 to $40,000 for an upscale Accord to get the same features. Not only that but the styling and comfortability exceed everything I have driven in this class. It is truly Lexus quality.
and 60-80k for similar level in BMW, Audi and Mercedes! I went Lexus as it was not that much more than a fully loaded Camry. So good! Was tired of money pit German cars!
Add to that the spare wheel. No brainer
This is without a doubt the best sedan on the market. No accord,altima, sonata, optima can come close
The Accord is the only one that comes close. The Altima is fun to drive but bad road conditions will cause back to back problems.
@Jack-pd4ps true the accord is the best out of the other sedans, however with 1.5L turbo engines, the accord isn't going to be a long lasting sedan
@hassansmw5634 yup it’s crazy how Toyota basically “downsized” the engines in their bigger vehicles except for the Camry Hybrid. The grand Highlander has a similar setup to the Camry. The Camry is definitely overbuilt and that’s why they last so long. You’d think the new Camrys would’ve gotten the Corolla setup but they still put the 2.5 in it. Lol
@Jack-pd4ps
Toyota downsized the cars that have the V6 and V8 engines, but they won't downsize the 4 cyl cars.
Altima are driven by drug dealers.
I've got the V6 previous model. The power train is amazing, I'm keeping mine as it can't be replaced moving forward. Great video, Camry is not boring, it just does the job without any fuss.....
Yeah that's like baking your spouse boring because they didn't give you any problems. I'll take it
The insurance on my hybrid is double that of my previous car. I wonder if it has something to do with the hybrid? If so, hang on to your V6, it is a keeper.
their best engine and tragedy Toyota got rid of it in favor of placating the UN/WEF Green commie climate crazies. We need to revoke CAFE and EPA standards. Make larger engines and oil production great again. EV cars suck!

My next new vehicle will be another Toyota for sure! Thanks David!
Own a 2022 Camry Se. really smooth car and has been reliable so far at 25 k miles. Will keep for couple more years
Just got the 2025 le a few days ago it handles so smooth
Life's too short to buy a base model.
@raagtop363 Try to be more understanding and less dismissive.
I’m going to list the advantages of the 16” wheels:
A. Tires are cheaper.
B. Tires and wheels less likely to die after hitting a frost heave.
C. Better ride.
D. Quieter ride
E. Better fuel economy
F. Better in snow and rain.
G. Far less likely to be stolen.
H. You are less likely to be stopped by Johnny Law.
I. Less likely to get curb rash.
Advantages of wheel upgrades:
A. Better looking.
B. Better *dry* handling
C. Maybe better resale unless they have curb rash, which is common.
My LE has both available packages - Convenience and Cold Weather and has everything I need. I would have preferred the handling upgrade from the SE, but I didn’t want the wheels.

Last week, we purchased a 25 LE with convenient, dealer installed packages and accessories for $29.5k OTD. Love this so far!
What state and dealer?
@mrnarason, Cavender in San Antonio, TX.
How much discount off MSRP is that?
@nickeckemoff7631 He basically paid no sale tax, probably $2k off msrp
@nickeckemoff7631 gotta be a lot !!! hard to believe

I bought one of the last TRD’s in Florida about 6months ago. Once I found out no more v6 engine I was all over it. Oh and still has the traditional transmission and analog gauges.
Thank you David, great presentation as always!
Another great video, David. It’s nice to see your GX 460 in the background!
David, Beautiful Camry thanks for sharing. 😊👍🙌
Agree with you 💯!! Camry as at another level I'm 2025!
wanted one ,went to a Toyota dealership, was told that I had to wait 3-4 months. So got the 2025 Honda civic hybrid.
I feel your disappointment ... ☹
Honda civic hybrid is a good car if you’re in your 20’s or early 30’s better than a corolla imo.
Thanks a lot sir for making this insightful video. In India this is going to be launch in December. And I am excited to see Toyota bringing its one of the best products to us.
Cheers!!! Love from India.
If David says it’s good, then it’s good. Thanks for sharing your insights. I have a 2022 Subaru Touring XT that, overall, is a good car. I have my eye on a Lexus IS 350 F Sport, maybe even a Lexus ES 300h. But I’ll have to consider this new Camry.
I hope to find one of these at a dealership that won't try to rip my heart out with their over the top sales techniques. My first Camry was a 1988 and it lasted 21 years.
It’s a great car. Good luck in your search. LE with cold weather and convenience packages or SE for styling plus same packages. Shouldn’t be more than $40k it the door probably about $35k
Out the door pricing is critical. After ta XSE s and dealer fees -OTD $35-$40
Not XSE I meant SE or LE as your option but need the extra packages … for more
It’s like a reverse mullet: Business in the Back, Party in the Front!
Excellent comparisons. Appreciate it!
In love with my se and. Thanks for the good review
Thank you for the great review
Just bought a 2026 camry xse with the red interior and heavy medal paint and I must say I really like this car, comfortable seat, nice riding and I live in Quebec so the awd and ride height for the winters is just great! and I do great MPG
Great video David!
Great review, exactly to the key points where the Camry as a American made model shines over European & Asian models. Great review. I will soon replace my aging Mustang GT for this new badass since we plan to do more domestic travels.
Just drove one for four days in Mn. Hertz rental,,2.5 l HEV, Big three need to build something like this. Fantastic car.
Great review.
Loved your review and I'm going to test drive the car!
I love this thing. Got an XLE last month. Just want to drive it.
Nice review
I agree, this car is rather impressive and I hope it brings back the popularity of sedans in the US!
This is my car for 2027 to finally replace my 2009 Camry. Thanks for a great review.
Beautiful Car David i love it
I love the review. I would love to hear your comparison of the review comparison with the Honda Accord hybrid.
I just bought one, David. It's pretty nice. Mine is an XSE
I love the review. I would love to hear your comparison with the Honda Accord hybrid.
Very very nice vehicle…thank you
I have 25 LE since June 12k miles love it!
What mpgs are you getting?
@mrnarason I have a 2025 LE and I have been getting between 55-60 mpg. Once I learned how to drive a hybrid for efficiency they almost always do better than their rated.

Just got mine last Wednesday supersonic red xse
David. Would you consider the new Camry a first year production? You had recently advised avoiding purchasing first year production. Personally, I classified it as a heavy redesign. Then bought one.
I actually like the crown body style a little more tbh..i just like how unique it looks, but I'm considering a Camry as well to replace my Prius.
The king of the road and reliable.
Such an amazing car! We love the Camry!
Love it
Hi David, I am impressed especially with LE. I just wish it had a Hatchback version at LE price. Sedan trunk is just a bad use of space. No one puts anything behind the backseat headrests.
Nice
I don't know about the paint quality as he stated. There are numerous issues with it on Reddit. Owners have cited the paint chipping so easily and that the paint is very thin
Excellent driving dynamics and mpg. Toyota has a winner with this sedan.
Camry radio tip:
My 2025 LE kept losing Apple Carplay connection.
The fix: Press and hold the volume button down for 15 seconds and the radio reboots.
Love the car so far.
Thanks so much for the tip!
@rebeccamckenna2378I had my car in for an oil change a month ago and it hasn’t happened since. They either corrected the issue over the air or did something while being serviced. I did not tell them about the issue but it seems fixed now.
I solved this problem by getting rid of that slow buggy mess of a radio and hardwiring a iPad mini in place of it.
@markm0000 watch out for that tree!
Hi David,
Thank you so much for sharing such great and detailed information about cars, I really appreciate it! I have a question about my new 2025 Toyota Camry Hybrid. I’ve noticed three different types of sounds from it, two of which make sense to me, but the third one has me puzzled.

Could you please explain what might be causing this?
Thank you again!
I bought 2019 camry se hybrid which is nice car that i can afford. but in future i will go with this new one because new camry makes me excited
Thanks. I will get one 2027-2028 Camry XLE.
Thanks for this review. I’m going to preference order an SE AWD next week in Underground
I think the SE is sharper than the XSE. Enjoy!
Went from a Lexus 2005 ES 330 to a 2025 XLE about a month ago. Lexus has always had a great ride. Cant beat the comfort, controls, and mpg of the Camry. Only wish that when you open the driver door at night, the door panel buttons light up to show the unlock button to unlock the other doors. Door panellights up when headlights are on. I also wish the JBl stereo was louder.
just switch it to unlock all the doors when u put it in park. if only there was a way to show how to do that on youtube......
Mr.
Please
What about a Corolla se vs Camry le?
Besides security and the hybrid, I feel is the same value overall, but you do get synthetic leather and big screens compare to small screens and cloth.
Thank you!
For me, its between this trim 25 Camry, and RAV4 Prime XSE PP
When I focus, I get up to 62 mpg on Midwest suburbs without holding up traffic in anyway. Camry LE. Love the 16 in tires sidewall. So smooth over bumps
How are those 16 inch tires on the highway, I'm talking about making a lane change at higher speeds, or any kind of quick maneuver. Does the car tend to sway or feel unstable?
@patrickbercini2718 The 16s recommended pressure is 38psi. They handle great at highway speeds - not as good as the larger rims and wider tires, but not unstable at all. IMO, the 16s should be an upgrade considering all of their advantages.
Love my 2025 Camry XLE but….the seats are hard so I got two seat memory foam cushions
That's a very surprising verdict as someone that grew up in a Camry! Have you compared it with something similar such as Honda Civic Hybrid? or Accord? Just curious how the two may compare? Thx!
The new camry drives better, and is better camry than last gen. Good savings like the corolla
Does anyone know if the red leather interior is available in the XLE trim?
Hi David! When do you think Toyota will put the 5th generation THS in Lexus ESh and Crown Signia? I find it unbelievable that Crown Signia doesn't even have it, as it's the newest flagship from Toyota.
I still maintain that the new Camry is the little brother of the Crown.
its fantastic....like it more than the Prius...
I agree with you on almost EVERY point - except ONE, unfortunately. True, they’re beautiful, relatively affordable, efficient, and even sexy to some degree. But, for Toyota to build their mid-sized (and mid-priced) sedans for close to forty years now with NO rear trunk hinge covers and ugly, raw metal exposed is just … inexcusable in my opinion. They may add $10- of plastic per side to the total cost, true, but would improve the looks, the safety, and the CLASS of their sedans by leaps and bounds! Such a misstep is surprising, and not cool at all. 😢
Really, the trunk hinges have got you that bent out of shape? I bought one and I’m more upset about the effort required to close the damned trunk. I’m 5’8” with SuperFeet insoles and I can’t reach the trunk lid to close it without standing on my toes. And the springs are really strong. And you have to slam the trunk to get it to catch. Those are worth getting upset about, but not enough to write the car off. It’s just something to get accustomed to.
Well, it is just your opinion. I don't see their logic on that either but how often you look at the trunk hinges?
Our Australian models have hinge covers on the boot lid.
@charles6232 you gents have the Camry?
@billd9667 yes we do.
❤
I like it but I thought it was nearly identical mechanically to the last gen.
Pana roof is a deal killer for me. Don't like sun roofs for sure not going to take the pana roof.
David, You are much more of a world traveler than I will ever be but the last time I checked, Kentucky is substantially closer to Canada than Japan is. For that reason I am confused why Toyota brings the Corolla LE Hybrid all the way across the Pacific but refuses to bring the fabulous Camry LE up from Kentucky*. World famous RUclipsr Kirk Kreifels has repeatedly stated the LE is the Camry to get. With snow falling in Ontario as we speak, surely the Camry LE AWD on comfortable 16" rims is the best one for our four seasons. Only when the Camry is again available as a wagon will I consider the possibility that it is superior to the Crown Signia and I bet AMD will agree with me. 😉😉 * I wonder if our PM just rushed to Florida to arrange free trade in Camry LEs. 🤔
@rightlanehog3151 my question was : why not a rav4 with higher ground clearance for his snowy Canadian winters? The newer tnga camry/all toyota sedans have very low ground clearance and he will damage the bumper on frozen snow mounds left over from plowing. Hence...why not the rav4?
Is this handling prowess true only of the AWD Camry or also applies to the FWD Camry?
Avoid the pano roof. Lot's a problems with creaking noise and leaks. Stick with the standard sunroof as they are problem free.
no sunroof is best because i tend to look forward vs up into the sky while driving
All motor should be an option.
Which one would you buy?
Is there a big difference in handling and road feel between XLE and the XSE with the different suspensions?
I needed the extra space that an SUV will provide, so I'll wait for the redesigned RAV4 hybrid, hoping that it will have many of the outstanding features found on this Camry.
Get a minivan if you want space. SUV’S don’t have much space for the size of the car.
Hoping they bring a GR Camry to the market. Something with sub 5 second 0-60 times while still getting 40mpg.
Hope so
Yeah, won’t happen. You would have to re-engineer the entire hybrid system. Maybe a plugin hybrid model?
@billd9667yeah use gr rav4 setup in the Camry
where did you get one to test ride. I have been asking Toyota and they say the same thing - you need to buy one to test ride it .
What about the 2023 or 24 Camry what are your thoughts
Toyota Camrys are “overbuilt” compared to other Toyota vehicles and that’s a good thing. They downsized the engines in the bigger vehicles and kept the same size engine in the hybrid Camry. The Toyota Grand Highlander has a 2.5l hybrid engine while the Camry Hybrid has a 2.5l engine. Camrys are hard to beat.
Why would I want a panoramic roof? I can’t look out it when driving.
Ok but why do i have to pay a monthly subscription to use auto start with new Camrys?
Everything I've heard about it so far is great. It doesn't appear consumer reports has rated the 25 yet, but the prior seemed to get a top rating without spending a ton.
I eagerly await your decision on whether to buy the Camry , David..
Is this sarcasm? I think David likes it, eh?
We don’t get the Camry in UK ☹️
We don't get the Corolla Touring Sports or GR Yaris over here. 😭
Keep in mind there was the TRD Camry with upgraded handling.
100% agree. 25' camry is a gem.
I own an XLE. Would have bought an XSE but I think Toyota made a big mistake in not including the memory seats and mirrors option on the XSE. That was a deal breaker for me.
