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.

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.

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!

Very informative. Looking for a sedan as my 2024 CRV Hybrid is too high for my wife to get into with her new medical issues. Unfortunately, the Accord Hybrid has some real weaknesses compared to the new Camry. And I am experiencing those weaknesses with my CRV Hybrid. First, no spare tire. Had to spend $500 for a spare tire kit for my CRV as here in the desert, a sidewall blowout can't be fixed with the inflator tube Honda gives you. I notice also the new Camry has a temp gauge. Honda did away with it on the hybrids. Now, with the on again off again gas engine, we have a hard time knowing when the engine is warm enough to put the heater on, and at almost 80 years old, my wife and I don't want to feel cold air in the winter. Sadly, Honda did away with their individual Tire Pressure Monitoring System that used to show each tire's pressure like the Camry does. Now, I have to check each tire manually to see which one is low when I get a dashboard warning that one of my tires is low. I also do like the integrated touchscreen on the Camry. The Accord and my CRV both have it stuck on top of the dash. While I have 2 complimentary maintenance service visits for my 2024 CRV, Honda announced recently that they're cutting that down to 1 visit for 2025 models. Toyota tells me they still have 2. My wife and I will check out the new XLE Camry as might be a bit smoother with the smaller wheels compared to the XSE, and though Toyota has a good e-AWD system, it is really not needed here in Las Vegas as we have no snow, ice, and very little rain, though amazingly Toyota's AWD doesn't impact mileage very much. I guess if there was a Camry with AWD and I wanted that car, I could live with it, as I suspect AWD on the Camry might be a better option for buyers at resale time. One more thing....the Toyota hybrid battery, the most expensive element of the hybrid system I'm told, has a 10 year/150K mile warranty versus 8 year/100K mile from Honda. Last Toyota I drove was in 1968 when they had the Toyota Corona (smaller than a Corolla) and it was my demo at the car dealership where I worked. I learned a lot from your video, and look forward to the Camry test drive. Camry has many advantages over the Accord and really only a couple of negatives over the Accord....smaller trunk/less rear passenger legroom. Thanks again.

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.

@@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.

@@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.
