The 2025 Toyota Camry XSE is a BRILLIANT Hybrid Sedan!
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
For 2025, the Toyota Camry is ALL NEW with a refreshed exterior and a shockingly upscale interior. Another major change: the Camry is now only available with a hybrid powertrain, and that peppy V6 has been sent to the graveyard.
For the 9th generation, the refreshed Camry echoes the styling cues of the Prius, Crown and the all-electric BZ4x. Every Camry comes with a 2.5L 4-cylinder engine, with either 2 or 3 electric motors - two up front for FWD with 225hp combined, or two up front and one at the rear axle for AWD with 232hp (yeah, that 3rd motor only delivers 7 more hp!). Gas mileage is predictably really good, between 44 and 51mpg combined depending on what trim and/or wheels you choose. While it’s slower than the outgoing V6 Camry, it still scuttles from not to 60 in about 7.3 seconds. Inside, the revamped Camry is the best it’s ever been with lots of space for a midsize family sedan and a plethora of must-have bells and whistles that come standard, like wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, dual zone automatic climate control, lane keep assist, emergency braking with pedestrian detection, among others.
Some form of digitized gauge display comes standard on every model, with only the higher trims getting a whopping 12.3” digital display. An 8” center dash infotainment screen is standard on the LE and SE trims, while a larger 12.3” screen is standard on the XLE and XSE trims. Those two trims also add leather, heated seats, heated steering wheel, ambient lighting and other upscale amenities that we found to be rather impressive in a mid-$30Ks sedan.
For those audio lovers out there, you can upgrade to a JBL premium audio system on the higher trims. On the road, the Camry is composed, quiet, comfortable and is truly a joy to drive - what it may lack in power or true sport, it more than makes up for in its reliability and bang for your buck. Pricing starts at $29,495 for the LE, and climbs to $35,695 for the top-of-the-line XSE trim.

Just purchased this today in Heavy Metal with black roof and a red interior with the Premium Plus package. Originally thinking of getting white with a black roof but this was in stock (just came in to dealership today) and it looked very classy in person.

Congrats! I loved reviewing this car.
The reviews are very good
Toyota made a positive change especially in the interior
Thanks!
Get mine on the 14 of next week!
This is the exact spec I am getting.
They are making these so good, and with the updated interior, makes me question my Lexus ES.
It looks cool, and the gas mileage sure is great, but I’m hanging onto my RAV V6 for as long as I can. So I can enjoy that Toyota V6 goodness, which is a thing of the past apparently.
Loved the review, question : does the XSE have interior ambient lighting?

They were definitely comfortable! I didn’t have the car long enough to do a full long road trip but I was more than satisfied for the few hours I did have it.
I dont mind hybrids. But i will build a car myself if we ever go full electric. Plus you called it a CVT. But for someone who works at Toyota...its not actually a CVT engine by definition 😂 bit different engine to your typical CVT.
This car doesn't actually shift gears, it has no gears but an ecvt. Also the hump on the floor of the back seat isn't there for all wheel drive, it's there to add ridgity. This car has a rear electric motor so the drive shaft hump on the floor is not needed for a drive shaft but only for structural ridgity

Engine is loud & noisy under acceleration - car is quiet & composed when cruising. No overwhelming wind noise etc.

@@brandononbrand I think wheels are like the hair of the car; they totally make the look. Some folks don't care about the "art" of it all, but I do...and care v much about what the wheels look like!
That front grill is ugly and sticks out a long way. Parking curbs are going to have fun with it.
Personally think this is a waste of money. All flash without the real function. LE for me.
