2025 Toyota Camry LE: Features & Controls Explained

[@judybrown2764]

I am 72. My husband is 75. We drove our basic Sonata for 15 years, so when we drove off with this 2025 Camry Hybrid LE thinking it was the somewhat improved "basic" type car we were used to driving, we were in for a big shock. We felt like airplane passengers who had been invited into the cockpit to fly the plane! The salesperson sent us off with patient, excellent basic preparation. We read the quick guide and looked things up in the manual that came with the car, and which we are very HAPPY to have, but when my husband finally located Mr. Ruperti's KZbin tutorials, everything went so much more quickly and simply. These tutorials were a godsend for us. Now driving our new car is the pleasure it was supposed to be. Thank you, Mr. Ruperti!

[@brianruperti]

Thanks so Much your comment made my day!

[@anneleonas7813]

This helped me immensely! I’ve had this model for a week and was thoroughly confused until I found your tutorial!

[@brianruperti]

Glad I could help! Thanks so much for watching

[@charleswtuggle]

I really love my new 2025 LE Camry. And you did a great job on this video the best I have seen.

[@brianruperti]

Thanks so much!

[@glenhewey8795]

Thanks! You speak clearly. Good tempo. Left to right. Top to bottom. Well done.

[@brianruperti]

Thank you so much for your generosity! I am so glad to help. Have a great day! Thanks for your support 🙏🏼✨

[@frederickthompson8686]

This guy is great. Extremely helpful. Everything you'd hoped the dealer would have helped you with... but was too busy. I'm amazed that Toyota doesn't do this -- but Brian does!

[@brianruperti]

Thanks!!!

[@patwickgriff]

You are sensational, Brian! This is an excellent, comprehensive tutorial! Thank you!

[@brianruperti]

Thank you! This made my night! Your support keeps me alive

[@hamdyabdellatif7764]

Great efforts and precise tutorial Brian, I guess you touched all the options and features in that Camry conclusively. Really love your way and style in tutorials and reviews, thanks for your efforts bro! From Egypt 🇪🇬, sending huge greetings and hope to see you soon in your next video. peace ✌️

[@brianruperti]

Thank you Hamdy! My videos aren’t the same without a comment from you! Blessings from the USA

[@mozartzen]

I have just received my 2025 Camry Hybrid. Thank you for this tutorial, because it allowed me to better understand the different functions included with this vehicle. Your information is clear and relevant. A huge thank you!

[@brianruperti]

You’re welcome

[@marksmith4582]

Well explained and easy to understand Brian! Very thorough! Just what any new Toyota owner needs. Full respect and support always! Mark in Iowa.

[@brianruperti]

I appreciate that! Always great to hear from you! Likewise

[@Irishmanbikes]

Another cool feature of the 2025 Camry LE I learned from your video is that the steering wheel will vibrate when the car drifts out of your lane. Just like on my sister's 2023 RAV4 Prime SE. I was so psyched to learn that!! Thanks Brian. Please continue to make how to videos for all new Toyota vehicles. Someone asked you to make videos on the subscriptions for various safety features. I want you to do that too for the 2025 Camry LE. I hope to buy one in March 2025.

[@brianruperti]

Thank you! Will keep that in mind for future content!

[@EdwardMelman]

Thanks!

[@brianruperti]

Thank you!! I appreciate your generosity! 🙏🏼

[@arizonadavetv]

Great video Brian keep up the good work it helps us all out a lot especially older people like me. They can’t figure this stuff out.😂

[@brianruperti]

I got you!

[@덴버이야기]

Thank you! Really appreciate your work here!

[@brianruperti]

Much appreciated!

[@johanhermida6505]

Thank you for this very comprehensive and detailed explanation for the digital cluster on the LE. I own this model, and I love how this vehicle works. I understand what you were saying about how having the energy flow monitor on the infotainment screen can be distracting, but still there's a lot of us that like to know how the hybrid system works while we have other gauges and information displayed on the digital cluster. Do you think they can bring this back with an OTA update? Anyway, thanks again for this amazing video!

[@brianruperti]

Thanks for watching! I hope that’s an option in the future

[@nathanhouse70]

EXCELLENT review thank you very much!

Thank you sir for making these very helpful videos!!! GodBlessYou!!!

[@brianruperti]

Thanks God bless

[@fcvrvcny]

Nicely done. Just got our 25 LE AWD yesterday and this is a good self-paced refresher on what the salesperson did (which was pretty good too btw). We added the convenience and cold-weather packages to the base (as many people do), and there are a few more controls for them that I'll hunt down. Saved, liked, and subscribed!

[@brianruperti]

Thank you!

[@whooptydj]

Awesome video. In process of looking at cars and this will be of benefit. Thanks.

[@brianruperti]

Thank you

[@anttuanriospelaez17]

Great video! Im planning on getting this car soon, it helped a lot thank you!

[@brianruperti]

Glad it was helpful!

[@jcoyote]

Very good explainations.

[@mrmarano]

Great job on this video and learned quite a bit more about my 2025 TCH-LE. Of note: I have the convenience package, which adds the auto darkening inside rear-view mirror and a power driver's seat. Of note: The passenger side also has both manual seat height and back angle adjustments, which except for right-hand placement work as shown for the driver side in this video.

[@brianruperti]

Thanks for watching!

[@Offensively-normal]

Cool video. I'm waiting for someone to get one out on the road, and really put it through the ringer. I have driven my 25 SE on a variety of roads including mountain and canyon's. I think it does quite well. I would still like to see it perform in a pros hand's. Then hear his/ her take.

[@brianruperti]

Ah yes that would be interesting to see

[@jeffreyerickson6766]

Yeah Brian is mint.

[@joeodonnell9290]

Nice review Brian…I just subscribed. Can you elaborate on the remote start function on the 2025 Camry? Is it free, free for so many years etc. Thanks!

[@brianruperti]

Thanks! Remote start comes on the Toyota app and it’s 1 year free for most cars and then paid monthly

[@motorcycle123go]

Thanks 👍🏼

[@brianruperti]

You bet!

[@tony-nw2xy]

With the Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 on my new 2024 Cross does the video from the front facing sensors camera act as a dash cam that would be available to use as proof in an accident or do I still need to add a Dash cam

[@brianruperti]

Dash cam

[@sandymarantz6342]

Well, you spoke very fast and I’m feeling Overwhelmed sorry to say but we will continue to watch the videos until the big day arrives. Perhaps this spring or six after that. Thank you.

[@brianruperti]

You can control the video speed fyi thanks for watching

[@jackturner9655]

Need one for the premium plus package

[@Marquee_Gaming88]

I really need this I'm coming from 2010 camry regular gas car to 2025 camry hybrid

[@brianruperti]

Nice upgrade

[@clifflancaster4693]

Thank you for explaining that the adaptive cruise control can be switched to regular cruise control! This is hard info to find. If I have the adaptive CC turned off, when the car is turned off and restarted will it retain the off setting, or does it reset to the adaptive cc on?

[@brianruperti]

My pleasure. It should retain the setting.

[@marketteareed7935]

The video is great. All im missing is how to change from Android Auto back to the regular screen. Also how to use Android Auto for maps and the radio if you dont want to use Pandora.

[@marketteareed7935]

Also, thank you for the video tutorial.

[@brianruperti]

Thank you! To get to regular screen you’d tap the Toyota app in your apps section For maps you’d simply select the map app you want to use For radio you’d go back to Toyota interface and select music/audio to listen to radio I hope that helps! Also be sure to check out your quick reference guide which makes the process a little easier as well

[@chalmeraputt4884]

I just got my camry 2025 le . But believe me, I think my camry 2018 le is way better than these new ones . I used to have 2017 camry le, too. I believe that was best and last to that generation.

[@brianruperti]

What made you think that?

[@Irishmanbikes]

On the cruise control: How do you press SET for the speed of the car? I didn't see that you said that.

[@brianruperti]

The minus button is the set button

[@Irishmanbikes]

@@brianruperti Ok thanks

[@andreaherrera4454]

sometimes when driving the steering wheel will move away on its own if that makes sense is there a way/button to remove that?

[@brianruperti]

Yes you have to turn off the lane departure alert. Please see that section in your owners manual so you can understand the feature in more depth

[@clifflancaster4693]

Is it possible to display a traditional speedometer? Or do you only get the speed as a digital number?

[@brianruperti]

The options would be in meter settings. I believe this doesn’t have a dual gauge speedo on the LE.

[@mariewiggs1192]

Does this model have rear parking sensors ? When you get too close to an object it’ll give a ding ?

[@brianruperti]

It does not

[@Marquee_Gaming88]

But it has a very clear rear view camera with dynamic lines just look at it make sure always check the red line because its your bumper

[@carlbevil5930]

How do you set the speed for the cruise control? On other cars there is the word "Set" on the "-" button, but it's not here.

[@brianruperti]

Yes the set is on the right side of the steering wheel. Go to the steering wheel chapter and watch me demo it.

[@carlbevil5930]

@@brianruperti Thanks for the reply, but I guess I am still not seeing it. There's a button to enable cruise control, there's one to change from adaptive to old-style, there's one to set following distance, then there are ones to increase and decrease speed and to cancel. But I'm not seeing one to set the speed. In my car, I enable cruise control with a button, then speed up to where I want to be, then hit another button to set the speed (on my car it's the "-" button). Maybe the button that turns on cruise control sets the speed immediately?

[@brianruperti]

@@carlbevil5930 the minus button should also say “set”

[@leahrounsville6021]

Someone please help! Can you turn off the DRCC? And not have that light on 24/7? I am desperate to just drive the car as normal and add in the features I want as I go. Thank you!

[@brianruperti]

yes hit the CC button again to turn it off.

[@lucyshippy4640]

I have been trying to change the wake up word for "hey toyota" on my 2025 camry xse. Is it possible to change the "toyota" to "Rosie"?

[@brianruperti]

I don’t believe it has name change ability yet.

[@lucyshippy4640]

@brianruperti thank you! I will stop looking. 😁

[@djplonghead5403]

Video on Crown?

[@brianruperti]

Hard to find!

[@hiralsoni8406]

Does this car model have a heater?

[@brianruperti]

A heater?

[@Marquee_Gaming88]

You mean heated seat? No but you can have it as cold weather package

[@dolphinride5157]

The settings menu could be improved dramatically if, instead of all the 3 and 4 letter acronyms, it simply shows the words those letters stand for. As it is, I find it confusing and have to refer to a list showing what the various acronyms stand for.

[@brianruperti]

Yes agreed

[@engineer2001]

I don't know why Toyota keeps doing the little slide-out panel on the sun visor instead of a real telescoping visor like most other makes. It looks cheap and doesn't work as well as the entire width of the visor being able to slide/telescope.

[@jgriffin411]

100% agree!! Cheap & outdated.

[@cod4r]

High beam?

[@brianruperti]

Auto lights on and auto Highbeams on, they come on automatically.

[@Marquee_Gaming88]

Its bi Led and yes it has automatic highbeams

[@nkyryry]

I actually think the interior looks cheaper than the last gen. Especially the steering wheel. The flat matte emblem looks way cheaper. I know it’s redesigned. But it actually looks worse.

[@brianruperti]

Thanks for sharing your feedback

[@jxmar_]

It doesn’t. It’s just your perspective. No one is saying this. Everyone that had a 2018-2024 model and switched over to the 2025 is saying that it feels much better out together and higher quality than the previous model

[@Marquee_Gaming88]

I don't know what you on but i freaking love the interior of my car

[@WowkinsWowkinson]

Where is automobile auxiliary power outlet ?

[@brianruperti]

12v plug?

[@AnkitMittal-uh2pt]

Interiors is poor

[@brianruperti]

Which cars do you prefer?

[@smarterworkout]

I just bought the 25 LE and as a defensive driving instructor I can tell you that most of the safety sense stuff is unnecessary or dangerous. I put tape over my blind spot detectors on the mirrors. My mirrors are adjusted properly to see my blindspot I don't need a distracting light constantly coming on when a vehicle comes up from behind me. If you turn off the blind spot detector - it will come back on when you start the car. The default is always on. Learn to drive properly and defensively and you should need all this goofy tech.

[@brianruperti]

There’s no stopping the tech now

[@bangnhu9587]

speak to fast

[@brianruperti]

You can change the video speed

[@josephd15]

My headlights do not turn off automatically when I power off the car and lock the doors. What am I doing wrong?

[@brianruperti]

They’re supposed to stay on as a courtesy so you can see where you are walking. If you lock the car 2x they should cancel. Otherwise you can go into settings>general>customize vehicle>light settings>auto off timer (and adjust there)
