I’m a very conservative person but I gotta say it’s a no-brainer this thing is going to smash record sales. Kudos Toyota great job

[@RyansTechReviews29]

Highly doubt that, but it’s still a good car. I’d just spend the extra buck and get a rav4

[@Gopinathk17]

​​@@RyansTechReviews29RAV4 and Camry are built on the same platform. It's just the preference of a sedan or SUV. I'm sure both would have huge sales like how they are selling today.

[@AJSparacio413]

Doubtful. Many people shy away from hybrids for the $2000+ battery expense. Although hybrid better than full EV.

[@marksmith4582]

Thank you so much for sharing this with us Drew and Mason! I really do like the new generation of the Camry! I’m maybe a little disappointed that there is no 2.5 4 cylinder available with the 8 speed automatic transmission. But I trust Toyotas tried and true hybrid drive system and the CVT transmission. This new generation really looks quite appealing! Appreciate you sharing this with us! Mark in Iowa.

[@joelrodriguez7038]

The 2.5 in that model 🤯 is a shame

[@triggered577]

I love it. Can’t wait to see what they do with the RAV 4. Toyota stays on point 👌🏾

[@ck20121]

Same. Any idea when?

[@wacsr.7990]

I think it’s funny how the rear tail lights resemble the previous Accord..but I’ll tell ya I’m loving that blue color..I may consider trading in my 2021 Accord hybrid.

[@DSeN7]

I’ve always preferred the Accord, especially when it was available in a 2.0T with manual transmission. Then they got rid of the manual and the Accord was still the better choice with the 2.0T. Now that they’re both hybrids moving forward, I have to admit Toyota may have the edge although the steering/handling in the Accord is still superior.

[@RyanDoonan]

Definitely love the newer 25 Camry would definitely get the XLE trim so pretty

[@jocelyntimothe6763]

Will the LE trim still get over 60mpg even with the AWD or should it still be fwd???

[@MrElvis640]

The current Camry has aged pretty well in the outside imo unlike the current Corolla.

[@dino91001]

why hasn’t the current corolla aged well according to you?

[@MrElvis640]

@@dino91001 it has very round angles and the headlights it was like they didn’t know what to do with them until the came out with the new Prius design

[@dino91001]

@@MrElvis640 i think it’s a very nice facelift since its generation’s release in 2020. the subtle changes to the front grille and headlights/accent lights look good as it was changed from the “triple J”. what they should have done was give it LED turn signals to the taillights

[@dcrcort]

I have a 2020 Camry. Ive been waiting for a redesign to upgrade to a new one. This doesn't look like a redesign...more like a refresher. I'll keep my 2020 for another two years.

[@rogerh2694]

I have a 2012 Camry and getting a newer one still doesn't feel all that different really as far as the vibe at least lol. Also, what's with fast charging necessity? I have a OnePlus and they fully charge in 20min plugged so wireless is not at all needed.

[@livelightly4623]

Side profile did not change. More of a facelift than a full refresh.

[@CarrollTech]

They made rear side more like a Lexus with the window design

[@rosendorendonjr]

Love my 2024 Honda Accord Sport.

[@darenmcgovern4285]

Looks good, it looks like huge improvements. A large screen and more HP.

[@tonywong9105]

Thanks for the review! Do you know if this new generation is just a heavy facelift? For some reason they look quite similar to the last generation.

[@CarConfections]

Thanks! Toyota calls it a full redesign but there are some elements that carry over... So you can define however you wish

[@backhand4]

The whole dash and infotainment has so much piano black. FIngerprints everywhere i bet!

[@stephenwierzbicki4463]

[@preoksaha4504]

This blows the accord out of the water!

[@patone2184]

😂😂😂😂 no way

[@anthonydavis191]

Honda came out swinging this gone be a knockdown drag out fight here, Neither one of them is playing but Honda watched an improved a lot on they designs

[@charlesjackson1700]

The new Honda Accord is very mundane and plain.. It lacks so many options😮.. They still use the bad 1.5 5:26 turbo engine known for blowing head gaskets.😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

[@palebeachbum]

I like the design overall, but my God what is it with Toyota and their relentless pursuit of huge fugly grill design? I don't really like that there's no V6 anymore, but I think the hybrid is a good compromise since it's going to be vastly more efficient and Toyota hybrids are extremely reliable.

[@HenryCalderonJr]

I do those grills either. Wasted real estate actually and fugly. More hang ups and torn bottoms anytime you get to close to the parking spaces. But I guess it generates $$ for damaged fronts

[@yankeesusa1]

Toyota and the Camry are outpacing every other manufacturer when it comes this sedan size. And the mpg is crazy.

[@wolflarson71]

Can you get the silver one with a black hex grill instead of the same color as the rest of the car? I saw a red Japanese one with a black hex grill that looked WAY better.

[@Bfighter1]

My suggestion for all Vehicles oil have to use only for the engine & transmission after that All other like power steering and brakes it's can be electric without any oil please and more safety features provide like lines change departure warnings and blinds sports monitor etc automatically breaking system please thanks.

[@brandonyen7837]

[@raykupal]

.... now if Toyota can get rid of the dealers and just make purchasing all online....

[@tengvue9474]

Love the car, not the crazy price that Toyota is doing.

[@davidf2769]

8th gen AWD with this drivetrain would be spicy. Something about an ICE engine with a transmission that has gears, rather than a CVT...

[@mikey9836]

not really scared of the engine change. Mom and dad both have hybrid cars from Toyota, one with 210,000 and the other has 130,000 miles with regular maintenance.

[@Gandrewjm]

My worst car to date has been a 2009/10 Camry and that experience soured me on Camrys and Toyota. However this new Camry is making me rethink what my next purchase will be. Although it still puzzles me how Toyota can issue the most recalls year after year and yet continues to be deemed the most reliable brand!?? 🤷

[@BlingtingSam]

Which recall? My 2017 Toyota has been the most reliable vehicle. I just don’t like them not supporting updates due to 3g obsolescence, etc.

[@Gandrewjm]

@@BlingtingSam Toyota recalls thousands of vehicles each year - if you're a (paid) member of sites like JD Power or Consumer Reports you can easily see the list of recalls. I'm sure some sites will have the same information for free. I guess if they recall vehicles and fix them before they break then that doesn't affect their reliability rating? 🤷 FYI I'm not a Toyota hater. I had a Corolla for a few years and never had a problem with it, which was one of the reasons I bought the Camry. That Camry, however, was nothing but bad luck.

[@darriontunstall3708]

It’s very nice! I love the red & white interior! Very nice

[@vikashummer]

Camry is the GOAT, regardless of its cheap interior build quality

[@Elsith01]

I'm concerned about buying a first year redesign or is that a myth?

[@brenttitus2134]

Which one is top trim this time?!?! XSE or XLE?

[@CarConfections]

It should be like the current gen where XLE and XSE are both at the top, just with different designs

[@baraka3800]

in 3yrs and 35K i will purchase one off lease sooo waiting for a new 4runner

[@dmack7265]

I wished they offered rear heated seats.

[@chill.manny26]

I still prefer the accord in my opinion because I’m a Honda fan in my opinion

[@devynm1309]

You have a lot of opinions.

[@CraigNelson-gw6jw]

I hate Kia. But wowww the K5 looks wayyyyy nicer. The Accord wayyyy nicer. This is the same car bro with a hint of new infotainment screens lol Complete corolla in the front and rear is giving grandmom

[@AveiroDan]

I’m gonna wait for a Camry PRIME!

[@sirsillybilly]

Not a fan of the design of XSE grill or interior. Exterior of both looks more squat (shorter? ) which is contradicting the move to hybrid (conservative n less sporty) Prefer the previous model. Will be interesting to see real world test drive

[@Joelinator117]

I want to trade in my 23 corolla so bad for this car haha

[@rstuff1605]

Hey wats good. New design is cool ..but t he front end and light , DTL is So So. T he grill seems cheaply made 😳 And NO V6 is a sale depleter

[@dystopia-usa]

I never liked any vehicle larger than a true compact class one. Give us a nicely-done Lexus LBX for the U.S. market.

[@lightofthewrld777]

I had a Toyota Crown for 4 months and TBH I’m glad I don’t have it any more. There’s minimal difference between the Camry and Crown interior, where the Crown is supposed to be the premium offering it seems that I got played. I traded in for a Macan 😂😂😂

[@mikemayers8672]

Mainstream to upper luxury class is not a fair comparison 😂

[@brenttitus2134]

Accord vanilla and Camry chocolate. That being said, I think this next gen Camry is to busy. I like the Accord vanilla this time around.

[@ericbanks327]

I love the Toyota Camry. It was my first vehicle. I’ve owned 2 different generations but hybridizing the entire lineup will keep it as that boring vanilla car it has been ridiculed for being in the past.

[@junboo8730]

Camry reliability going down 2025 still the car looks great.

[@dalecackowski9259]

The refresh looks good and Toyota is smart to make all trims a hybrid as standard. My only gripe is why Toyota just refuses to give us a nice steering wheel for god's sake!It's the same bland and dull look in 99% of their vehicles.

[@AJSparacio413]

Should still offer a gas option as well as a turbo in addition to the hybrid like Hyundai and Honda do.

[@obasouthafrica8509]

The new Grill looks fantastic and the beautiful Interiors 🎉❤ But why is everyone venturing into Electric vehicles lately?? 😢

[@charlesjackson1700]

They are venturing to hybrid vehicles not EV... Battery powered cars are not selling well... People are catching on to their hype..

[@kodykmt]

Pls compare this with Hyundai Sonata

[@CarConfections]

We are planning on it once they both come out 👍

[@globalwillh]

50+ mpg?! 😮

[@windwalker121]

Holy crap, that honeycomb grill looks awful, especially in lighter colors.

[@videogazer801]

$42k for the top trim is way too conservative. This is easily a $60k car. 🚗

[@return.of.the.nac18]

If they gave different engine options, then it would be a no brainer. Unfortunately I think it will suffer because of this. And saying it looks like a prius doesn't help

[@whosyourdaddy00]

Literally the same car on the outside. The prius looks far more profound and just a better vehicle overall

[@fifasf3379]

I hope the e pricing is right and rates go down since it’s an election year and the economy will magically get better when this comes out . If so I think this is my car , the look , the features it blows the accord out of the water …

No it didn’t. The accord looks way better than this inside and out. And it drives better rides better it’s roomier better build quality etc

[@rolandocerezo4020]

@naveenthemachine the previous Accord looked nice. This new generation has an old vibe design compared to this new upcoming Camry. I've owned Hondas for about 7 years now and this new Camry throws Accord out of the water with its new tech and power.

[@arhamkhakwani5851]

The new Gen Accord imo already looks outdated to this. I like the materials on the Accord a bit more but due to the perfect package of AWD and hybrid economy it’s already better than the Accord imo.

[@AJSparacio413]

Exterior of the Accord looks better than this. Interiors for both OK. Do not like the stuck on tablet that the Accord has. However, everything else looks good.

[@charlesjackson1700]

The new Honda Accord is awful in comparison. The front end is so cheap looking and plain.. The dash looks like a base civic.. no Homelink. No ambient lighting.. no birde eye view camera's. No panoramic roof.The Accord is just lagging behind badly..🥴
