I have a 2021 Camry LE, base model that I bought on sale for $23.5K. This happened after my late wife’s Lexus ES350 at 100K miles lost a water pump and took out the engine. Lexus wanted 12,500 to fix a 7,000 car. At the time I considered the Camry to be the best car in the World, by far, when you make price a key factor. But I also had a chance to compare the Camry performance and drivability against the ES350. The Camry was always very close to the ES350. Its gas mileage was literally twice the Lexus on regular versus premium gas. And the Lexus maintenance costs are staggering. Three years later, I love the Camry and can hardly wait to drive it every day. By the way I bought a Camry station wagon in 1990 and had it for 27 years.

I just saw what Car & Driver said about the 2025 Camry: The Camry's starting price is a bit higher than before because of the new hybrid-only lineup, but the base LE is cheaper than the previous-generation hybrid. Of the four models that Toyota will offer at launch, the LE has the highest fuel-economy estimates due to its smaller wheels, but we'd opt for the slightly sportier SE. It has a firmer suspension setup and more standard features, and it offers many of the most desirable add-ons-such as the larger infotainment screen and the more powerful all-wheel-drive powertrain-as optional extras.

For several years Toyota has been having difficulty matching Hybrid supply with demand so let's hope those days are over. 🤞🤞 In regard to the shifter, I cannot understand why Toyota alternates between normal gear levers and Prius-style joysticks, does anyone actually prefer the Prius shifter? 🤔 Finally, your 'micro-preview' of the Crown Signia's drive 0:12 needs to carry a caveat about the negative effects of those ridiculous 21" rims. Once again, I call upon Toyota Canada to offer us the Signia XLE with more reasonable 19" wheels as well as the ultra sensible Camry LE on 16" rims. 🤨

The 2025 will only have a CVT type of transmission and a hybrid drivetrain. I am thinking of the long term outcome of the regular type of transmission verses the CVT type of transmission. CVT transmissions are very expensive to repair if the unit should ever need to be repaired. I really do not want to own a Hybrid vehicle. If I have to purchase a Hybrid it would only be from Toyota.

You should do more reviews! Yours are some of my faves. No BS and always straightforward information. Had a 2015 XSE V6 it was a snoozer except for the powerful engine, but what a great reliable powertrain. We'll see if this one is as reliable as the 7th generation was. 8th was meh in my opinion except cosmetically.

The new car is on the same platform as the last gen.

Greetings from Australia, could you please elaborate upon the 2024/25 American version of the Toyota Yaris Hybrid Cross, of which I am eagerly awaiting delivery December/ January. Has Toyota committed to an across-the-board betterment on all it's models, on all continents? Thank you so much for your anticipated reply. Cheers 🥂

Great new tech especially for those of us wanting AWD and also the new two tone paint treatment-and you can add the higher level option pkg. and even the black wheels option-if U choose!

The 2025 Toyota hybrid in SE trim is $37,000. In XSE trim is priced at $42,220. Both tiers are way overpriced. Who is going to pay nearly $44,000 to save fuel money. When you can purchase a good used Toyota or Honda. For under 10K, which saves you $35,000!!

I love your reviews, thank you. My question is about entering and exiting the vehicle. I've been thinking about the Sportage as a more comfortable ride, but the milage is not nearly as good. I have owned a couple Prius models, but I'm in my 60s and they were too close to the ground. Also it snows here a few weeks out of the year. I just found this update on the Camry, and I am wondering if it might be a better fit.

Wish I could trade in my 2022 Camry for this, but I have no complaints with mine. I wonder if the first year will have bugs or if this one will be perfect on the first edition since the tech has been around.

David, you hit on driving fun, in a Camry! So this one is good for a Camry, what does it’s driving experience compared to other brands and models? What is the closest match? Has it lost the Toyota numbness? The Camry have been made to “look or appear sporty” but driving experience is usually missing entirely in my experience with rentals I’ve driven. Thanks 🙏

I had 2014 and 2020, but I liked 2014 over 2020 I made the wrong decision to sell 2014 and now have tlx which is nice and fun to drive.. But tempting to own 2025 from the day one after seeing the advertisement..

I totally agree, very good quality inside, the phenomenal interior screen, a big change compared to the last generation, good for Toyota, a brand as reliable as few others, and also this Camry has very little to send to Lexus

Great review! I was going to buy a new 2024 Rav4 but decided last week to wait for the 2025 Rav4 release…it will be interesting to see what you think of that new Rav4. I want to clarify however, you mentioned that the Camry was wireless Apple car play…then you said it wireless Android Auto. Are you sure it is wireless Android auto? I hope you are correct as it’s about time Toyota caught up with other manufacturers producing cars with wireless Android Auto.

I have had two that were fine, but I can see the positive differences, and if the lease price is not as crazy most are now, I will lease it.--Bob

Do you have Canadian prices yet, or do you know when Toyota will add this 2025 to their build pages?
@seanh23908 ай бұрын
canadian prices are available on the “modern motoring” you tube channel near the very end of their 2025 camry review posted a few hours ago
