The 2025 Camry is a Better Driving, Hybrid-Only Hit // First Drive (POV)

[@Bread_n_Butter.]

Once you get over that urge and need to drive faster and mature to the point where you enjoy just sitting back and having a relaxing drive during your commutes, cars like this and the new accord have a higher value. Once you realize you're not on the road to race, once you get tired of getting speeding tickets, once you learn to enjoy being inside a nice ride, enjoying a nice sound system, once you realize how much stress and anxiety comes with always being in a rush and having to drive fast on the road and train yourself to get that in control, your value system on vehicles will change and you will appreciate cars like this much more. I'm speaking from personal experience, as a 44 year old now thinking about where my mindset is now versus when I was in my 20's and 30's. Lol

[@jpete3027666]

I just turned 45 and I’m with you. High performance cars just don’t appeal to me at this point in my life. I just want something quiet, comfortable, and reliable. I’ve never wanted a hybrid before but a car with over a 600 mile range and almost 50 mpg on regular gas is really freaking appealing in today’s economy. I think I’m getting one.

[@Plague_Rat778]

I'm only 24, but honestly, yea. Drove my brother's Charger R/T and Camero... while fun, they're just... meh. They don't do anything for me, I couldn't see myself owning one. Def just want something I can cruise in/drive comfortably.

My mom bought a 2024 Camry, and I’m ngl I’m beyond jealous. The exterior and interior are so clean, the sound system slaps, and for an economy car it’s take off speed is not that bad at all. I’ve had my eyes set on a Benz A class for a while now, but the Camry definitely has me going back and forth.

[@JesusGonzalez-ve1if]

Definitely get the Camry, the A-Class is just a Renault engine underneath, if you aren't getting an AMG or an E-Class it isn't a true Benz!

[@jeffb.6642]

if you want to actually drive the car you bought instead of the loaner from the repair shop, get the Camry

[@Boss_Fight_Index_muki]

The thing nobody ever mentions about 16" rims is you'll get better mpg, lower NVH, less tire wear, and better ride comfort. Large rims creates more problems than it solves. This is coming from someone who used to hop up Civics back in the day. Oh yeah, you also get worse acceleration

[@tinhinnh]

16s used to be huge back in the day 😂 also less likely to get stolen, cheaper tires

Crazy. It wasn't so long ago that surround backup cameras were only a thing in luxury cars like an S class... And now we have it in camry. Its true what they say - there are no bad cars anymore.

[@sammyjammy6647]

The only thing I’m not sold on is the horsepower and torque. For example, I regularly take a toll road near my house that has a 6% incline grade. I know when i had a RAV4 hybrid which has the same torque as this 2025 Camry, it struggled to go up it. I had to have my foot heavy on the gas and I felt like I was hurting it. lol. That’s why I switched to a 2023 V6 Camry and it’s been smooth sailing up that hill since

[@munday]

That's because the v6 camry have 267tq which is 104tq more than the hybird which is rated at 163tq

[@kellyaustin7487]

Sonata, K5, Charger, all can get you up that hill with no problem lol.

[@jml9550]

I have a 2017 Lexus ES350 and my wife has a new Lexus NX350h. The V6 will beat the hybrid going uphill all day everyday. But MPG sucks on the V6. I would sell my ES350 as soon as the new gen Lexus ES hybrid arrives.

[@hardy2023]

8th generation is still the best

[@Trentsmotorsports]

I say the 24 Camry trd has to look the best of all Camrys. With the Spoiler, exhaust, side skirts, and the front lip

[@Cap683]

Most car buyers in my area will be buying either the LE or SE Camrys. Cars have gotten so expensive that the lower trims will sell. Our local Toyota dealer does not keep XLE and up on their lot. These demo reviews are not the cars that will sell. I just want to get from point A to point B in a well made car that I don’t have to sell a kidney for.

[@jml9550]

People in my area would don’t want LE. XLE is a start. A few $k is not much money.

The increased weight of the AWD sytem will mostly offset any HP increase from a speed perspective. I wonder if the vehicle indicates when the rear wheels become engaged such as with an indicator light?

[@destroyerofsimps6574]

it's an electric AWD not a mechanical awd.

[@lharb704]

CVTs generally don't bother me much. They're a little bit noisy under full acceleration but so are autos. There's a little bit of a delay almost like turbo lag when you nail the accelerator but it's worth it for the MPGs. Handling and refinement are what I'm looking for. I can't wait to test drive one of the 25s.
