Likes: Mpg 45-50 combined Ride About perfect balance Noise levels. Very quiet Wireless CarPlay and qi charge. Didn't expect to like this so much! Can sit in car with ac on just battery power Toyota hybrids are proven reliable This is the same engine setup as crown 220 hp and great low end torque Dislikes : Steering. Electric feel Radio sound. Mid Air conditioning. Might be a tad weak Screen. Great res wish it was bigger Stance. For me, I don't like getting so low in a car. I wish seats a little more upright Overall extremely happy with the car! I had a 2018 Camry and 2020 accord. The hybrid system is really a joy to drive. Quiet , fast , and reliable feels luxury!

Retired GM made the switch

After 30 plus years at GM and always buying GM products. GM does not make a hybrid anymore. Was going to buy a 2024 Trax. Looking at the build sheet, seeing it had a 3 cylinder engine and built in Korea, I canceled the order. If I'm going to buy foreign, might as well buy a car with proven longevity. Not only that, it made in Kentucky. The 2025 Camry restyling is eye catching. Have the white pearl color. Black interior. Have yet to open panoramic sun roof,(probably never use it). Instrumentation panel is very interactive and pretty easy to use while driving. Our Rav4 was typical suv noisy. But this Camry made me understand why the loyalty to Camry. Drives very well. In cruise mode it does all the safety features well. Braking and lane departure. Getting in no problem, getting out tells me I need to lose a pound and wish I was 10 years younger. Great car and wish GM had a hybrid. Do your homework and see what cars GM makes in the US, only high $ profit products. John.

What I was waiting for!

CW, Killeen TX, 07/01/2024
2025 Toyota Camry XSE 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)
32 of 33 people found this review helpful

Was disappointed that the upgrade didn't happen last year, but bought a 2024 as a "placeholder" to not lose as much value as my previous GMC. On Memorial Day, bought a Red/Black XSE ( no, I'm not one of THOSE drivers) equipped with the "Q" package. Has Everything but the unneeded AWD. Always have been a GM guy until now! In a little over a month, I have nearly 2400 Texas miles. Enough power to get on hwy even with the aggressive drivers in this military town . Very quiet. 9 speaker JBL has more oomph. Wireless charger works through my phone's armor plating. Nav is current. Driving through the Hill Country, toward Austin, I still get around 43mpg at 75mph speed limit, which is about 3 better than the 2024. Gotten as much as 50 around town. Sun is too strong here to want to use the roof glass, so not really necessary. PSA: Buy road hazard insurance for tires as it can cost you up to $400 to replace one of these. I've already used it. Great amenities, but you might want to strangle the "Grandma" driver detection that tells you to "sit up straight" if it can't see your eyes if your arm may be positioned in front of the steering wheel sensor, for those that don't drive at "10 and 2". I may retire with this car in 5 or 6 years. My best one yet. CW 7/01/24

The Camry Perfected!

New Camry Guy, 05/26/2024
2025 Toyota Camry SE 4dr Sedan AWD (2.5L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)

I just purchased my 2025 Toyota Camry SE on May 21st. I had been driving a 2016 Prius for over a year and prior to that a 2010 Prius for 3 years. I have been very impressed with Toyota's hybrid technology and the 2016 was a great car but I wanted an upgrade in Technology and performance. I was considering the new Prius but after looking at them in person they are downsized and not nearly as practical as the 2016. Yes they look sporty but just not as functional and I have read lots of issues concerning the odd 19-in tire size and lack of spare which I have to have as I drive 25k miles a year. When I found out about the new Camry coming out I decided to wait. After test driving one I was very impressed! Soon after I found the trim and color I wanted. I have driven mine so far about 800 miles and I will say this car is as close to perfect as you can get for a hybrid. It has lots more room than the Prius, a spare tire, the suspension is dialed in perfect if you like a firmer tighter ride than the SE is perfect if you want softer get an XLE. The new version of Toyota safety sense 3.0 is like it says in the review near flawless. It's not intrusive and actually is very good at anticipating situations. There are no sudden movements or harsh breaking so far. The car will actually stear itself with the cruise on. The Edmunds review is spot on to what I have experienced. Wireless Android auto works well, and the base audio sounds decent. I will say this is the nicest car I have ever owned and don't think anyone would be disappointed within reason. It is the perfect balance of sporty, practical, and great gas mileage. I was used to getting around 60 MPGs with the Prius so far I'm only getting 45 with the Camry. The Camry is not easy to hypermile as the Prius was very easy to, but I'm enjoying the extra horsepower and sporty driving Dynamics. I'm very happy with my purchase and plan to keep this car for a very long time. 6/14 update: now with 1500 miles getting 47-53 mpg per trip with normal driving! The longer the trip the better it gets. Love the new Camry!

2025 Toyota Camry LE

AP, 07/24/2024
2025 Toyota Camry LE 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)
74 of 79 people found this review helpful

What a nice smooth ride. I cannot believe that the SE version has a better ride! Have to watch my speed!!!!! Love the adaptive cruise control. When you are cruising and hit traffic the car reacts without any heavy braking which is very nice, it also accelerates at a very good pace to get back up to speed. Blind side monitors are a great feature and should be in all cars!! I was a Prius owner for 15 years and went with the Camry because they stated the MPG were 53 city 51 highway for the LE and it is a bigger car with better comfort for a ride (My Prius was getting 50MPG). Here is my first 4 days of actual tracked miles per gallon: Cruise Control set to 70MPH AC set to auto at 76 degrees Fahrenheit Temperature was between 65 to 90 degrees Fahrenheit Drove 519 miles (480 was all highway) put in 9.64 gallons MPG was 53.8 (MPG gauge in the car told me I was getting 54.4) The first couple of days I drove back roads and got 57.8MPG I will Edit again in January top see how much it drops in New England winter. Does have a very small hum when running on the electric motor at slow speeds but can't here it with the radio on. A different sound than I was used to from my Prius. UPDATE 7/29/24 The hum I am hearing is coming from the hybrid battery, you can hardly hear it in the car as I stated above but outside the car you can hear it. To me this is a good thing as my Prius was so quiet no one could hear me coming running on battery BUT in the Camry they can (Added safety feature:))

Best Hybrid I’ve owned yet

5th Hybrid!!!!, 12/12/2024
2025 Toyota Camry LE 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)
17 of 17 people found this review helpful

This is my 5th hybrid and best by far. I’ve owned (All Hybrid) an Avalon, Lexus ES300H, a 2019 Accord hybrid and prior to the 2025 Camry I was I was in a 2023 Corolla Hybrid. I drive about 1300 miles per week and absolutely require good gas mileage. The 23 Corolla was giving me around 53 mpg average. Great car but just a bit small. I decided to upgrade to the Camry. I have just around 2000 miles and I’m averaging about 50-52 mpg per tank. I couldn’t ask for better than that. The car is plenty big and super fast. I like the standard extras in the LE such as the phone charging platform and the LED interior lights. The ride is smooth and handles bumps well and I do about of city driving. Now for some of the petty complaints….i wish the LE came with a leather wrapped steering wheel and the cloth on the seats were a bit softer. Aside from that, this car is by far the best bang for your buck. One more note to add, historically hybrids get better MPG in the summertime. Since I bought this car brand new the average temp has been 35 degrees and I’m still getting 50mpg.

Pleasantly surprised with the switch

I was a VERY loyal GM customer (9 vehicles in total), and ALWAYS had preferred SUVs/Trucks, but once the misses got a large family SUV, I decided to be an adult and “trade down” from my ‘21 Tahoe. But let me tell you, it’s no trade down. Sure, obviously there’s less space (no comparing a large SUV to a Camry), but between the technology, driver’s safety features, and overall comfort and affordability, I will absolutely never willingly get rid of this 2025 Camry SE. Being in the Midwest, I opted for the AWD model, so we’ll see how it handles in the snow. However, even though the EPA estimate is 46 mpg all around, i have been averaging just shy of 50 (49.8 to be exact) round trip for work, which is 25 miles each way; 75% highway and 25% city driving. Not to mention, my wallet feels much heavier since the money stays in my pocket more with this fuel economy. I was skeptical about a hybrid vehicle (I’m still not one to think EVs are great), but I’m incredibly impressed by the transition from the electric to combustion motor in the Camry. If you’re playing music, you’d never know. And if you don’t listen to music on your drives, the most you’ll realize during the transition from electric to gas is just the sound of the engine going again. If I could go back in time (and if this were available then), I would have bought this as my first car, kept it, and continued to buy this vehicle when replacement would be necessary.

Best Camry ever

This is our ninth Camry as we are satisfied Toyota customers for many years. In all those years I cannot remember even a single mechanical issue. And it is now in a class by itself with amazing technology, a beautiful exterior and interior build quality that rivals Lexus. Once you begin driving it you won’t want to stop. The combination of standard hybrid technology with a rated 46 mpg and on demand AWD along with 232 HP is truly now a driver’s car. Definitely a gold standard vehicle.

Exceeding Expectations

I got my car in July, againt all odds as it is difficult to find one in Canada, and so far I am loving it. It is a really sharp looking car, I am getting about 45 mpg on the first 2 tanks of gas and have heard this will improve in future. I find it to be comfortable, the interior is very nice and practical, and there is plenty of room for my family of 4. The safety features work very well, and I am enjoying the blind-spot monitor and the adaptive cruise control. As it was not drastically changed from the previous design, I believe it will be a typical reliable Toyota in the long-term.

So far this has been a great car with a lot of technological upgrades. It is also a great value when you compare it competitors, especially if you factor in the fuel economy. The Prius, for example, is about the same price for a much smaller car with no better mpg. I will point out that the proximity sensors on the fenders and driver's door are only available on the XLE and XSE models, something not mentioned in Edmonds comparisons. Given the experience we have with our 2017 Prius, we assumed it was part of the standard safety suite, but it is not.

Drove a 2000 Camry top trim for 25 years and passed down to all the children. In July I purchased the 2025 Camry XSE, and could not be more thrilled about it. At first glance it looks more like a $70,000 Lexus than it does a Toyota. The interior is incredibly Luxurious. The exterior has unbelievable lines and detail. The technology is mind blowing for it to be, yes, a Toyota Camry. I’m averaging about 44 MPG and paying 30-some-odd dollars for a 480 mile radius…absurd. You get the eye catching style with it still being the reliable and dependable brand of Toyota. Would recommend to anyone. Young or old; single or family car; it has trims for everyone. The XLE and XSE are so similar in price it just depends what YOU like. I test drove both and to me, it was a no browner that the XSE was for me. The red interior is ridiculously sharp and the black alloy wheels add yet another luxurious touch. 10/10, 5 stars, 2 thumbs up.

Stranded after only seven days

When I leave my Toyota Camry hybrid parked for more than seven days the battery goes dead, and I am unable to start my car or even open the car door. I took it to the Toyota dealer and they checked the battery and other components on the car and said nothing was wrong. He said the reason why it goes dead is that the computer never shuts off. They advise me to run my car every few days. They also suggested that I put it on a trickle charger. But what happens if I leave my car at the airport for a week when I go on vacation.? What happens when my daughter goes to school in this car and leaves it parked in the parking lot for a week. What should she do when it doesn’t start late at night? Toyota dealerships said they have problems with all of their Their new cars on the show floor. They say that they repeatedly have to jumpstart their cars. This is an engineering design floor. When I talk to the Toyota corporation advocate, he had no solution to the problem. I have never gotten customer service like this before. I’m going back to my Chevy. Their customer service is outstanding.

2025 Camry XLE Has Problems. Think Twice

Arlington, VA, 10/19/2024
2025 Toyota Camry XLE 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)
59 of 66 people found this review helpful

I've owned this car for nearly 4 months and initially had no issues. In the past month, I've had numerous issues relating to the electronics and many of the vehicle's features associated with them. Specifically: Dashboard displays blank out or change to other screens without any input from me Lane Departure Assist was deactivated twice and turned itself back On both times, after a period of weeks. I hate this feature and finding it back On............I was not pleased Seat slide and driver's seat programming have stopped functioning, repeatedly While driving on the highway, Cruise Control has turned On without any action on my part. It scared the crap out of me when the vehicle suddenly accelerated in heavy traffic Apple CarPlay keeps disconnecting and I have to reconnect it manually All of my radio presets have erased and had to be reset - which is not easy in this vehicle Frequently, the car does not recognize me as the driver (I think it links with my phone) and thinks I am a guest driver. The last time was when I took it to a carwash and someone else drove it int/out of the tunnel. When I got in it, much of my programming was gone. It has TOO MANY features and they are highly distracting. This is my 3rd Camry. I liked my 2012 XLE Hybrid much better. I wish I'd kept it.

I Never Thought I'd Be A Camry Owner...

Fred Thompson, 06/14/2024
2025 Toyota Camry SE 4dr Sedan AWD (2.5L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)
38 of 42 people found this review helpful

I'm a car nut. For the past thirty years, I've always owned at least one Porsche -- and I still drive a Macan -- so what would compel me to buy a Toyota Camry? Several reasons, including value and reliability, the re-styling, and the hybrid drive train of the 2025 model... and believe it or not, the driving experience. The 2025 Toyota moves a mainstream, predictable brand to a whole new level. The re-designed front end looks pretty baller, and the "Underground" color with black alloy wheels gives the car a pleasantly aggressive appearance. The interior, which was also redesigned, is nicely upmarket and comfortably functional, and the rear seat, unlike the Macan, can actually accommodate two adults. But maybe the biggest surprise was the driving experience. I wasn't prepared for the smoothness of the hybrid set up, and the handling and acceleration, while not high end German, are damned close to some of the Mercedes and BMWs I've owned. In fact, there's even a "sport" drive setting that tightens up the gearing and handling a bit, and is very enjoyable. Lastly, there's the gas mileage. I didn't buy the car to save money, but I must say I'm enjoying the heck out of the savings. I think when the Porsche starts getting on in years I'll move "up" to a Highlander! BTW, yesterday I saw a four door BMW sedan with the same color scheme. The driver saw my SE and gave me a thumbs up. Hey, I'll bet I'm at least $40 grand ahead...

Smooth ride and affordable

This car is affordable and overall a very smooth ride. My only complaints are the need for a more comfortable drivers seat; a power passenger seat in the SE standard; stronger AC ; better brakes and higher seating position. Having said this I may consider buying the XSE for added features with more time behind the wheel. After one year I find it still excellent but it could be better with power passenger lumbar option which is unavailable on all Toyotas. Why make people upgrade to Lexus just for power passenger lumbar? I’d shop for another brand at that point like BMW 330i. I’d buy another Camry if it offered Power seat with lumbar function for the passenger!

I just bought the 2025 Camry XSE. I love it!!!! I looked all over for what I wanted. The white with black trim and the cockpit red interior are gorgeous!!! I love the black badges and wheels. It has the sporty look I was hoping for. I drove an 86 before this, and this gives me the same vibe, but bigger. I love driving it! The safety features are great. This is my first hybrid, so wasn’t sure what to expect. It’s so quiet when starting and I have to watch my speed or I’ll be way over the limit. The screen is a nice size, but it’s been a learning process to figure it out. Once you know how it functions, it’s easy. I couldn’t be happier ❣️

After 4K miles I have found the car to run and handle smoothly and the cabin is quiet. The touch screen and instrument cluster is where the problems lie. They are both cumbersome use. The instrument cluster keeps resetting after I painstakingly set it up to my preferences. The app is another issue, none of the auto functions work. The auto start on the key fob doesn't work either! The dealer or Toyota cannot rectify the problem. They each refer me back and forth! This is my first Toyota and I'm starting to regret it! This is a 40K dollar Camry! Can someone out there help?!

I have a Camry le awd and it’s getting 41 mpg mixed driving with 1750 miles it states 50 mpg in this version and also the passenger door when closing the door you can hear the glass clank and sounds like it’s going to break I need to get that checked out. One more gripe is my drivers door when I open it halfway it swings back towards me and hits my leg this doesn’t happen when I fully extend the door. Maybe I just got a bad one!! But the positive side is it rides great very stable and very little body roll decently quick and great styling on the new generation.

A XLE-cellent Value

Camry-Confidant , 01/04/2025
2025 Toyota Camry XLE 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)
7 of 7 people found this review helpful

I had been shopping for months and decided on a Mid-sized vehicle instead of a SUV. After driving the Kia K5, Honda Accord, Hyundai Sonata and Toyota Camry and sifting thru the various recalls that all have had, I found the Camry Hybrids mostly trouble free. I only wanted a SE model with cold weather and convenience packages. At the time of purchase it was almost impossible to find...either with nothing or with everything. With most other options the SE was sometimes more expensive than a XLE model. The XLE has dual power leather heated seats and a leather wrapped heated Steering Wheel and the larger 12 in infotainment screen standard. It also has a optional panorama glass moon-roof. My dealership offered me the XLE model @ a large discount below sticker near 34k. I was sold. the K5 EX similar price but no hybrid..Honda Accord EX-L 2024 model also near similar priced but limited inventory and 2025's they wanted even more. Hyundai Sonata Hybrid came close but the wanted more for the Limited and no substantial discount. I am very surprised that the Camry was the bargain and the trim Edmunds recommended. Shortly after purchase I put the car on the Highway and drove a bit less than 1000 miles. The car got 42 mpg going about 83 mph..not bad since it not even broken in and driven in colder temps in the 30's and low 40's. I can't wait to see what it will do in the spring and summer months. Do you research, the closest other car on my radar was the Honda Civic Hybrid...In the Touring trim with the Hatchback it is about the same price of the Camry...similar in price/performance...discounts are few/far between for the Civic Hybrid. The Camry is Hard to beat! I am giving this high rating also because of the smooth ride/highway driving experience...the XLE model is very much a Lexus ES 300h in a more affordable pkg. Take a look those prices and drive one a you will understand. I don't think you will need the premium pkg, but if you want more of everything go ahead and indulge. Once discovered sadly prices may firm up. Shop Smart and be will to travel to find your deal..Im happy and hope you be also.

Great practical car and surprisingly fun drive

2025 Toyota Camry XSE 4dr Sedan AWD (2.5L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)
11 of 12 people found this review helpful

XSE AWD, white w/black interior, cooled seats. The seats are comfortable summer or winter. It is plenty fast for a daily driver. It handles heavy traffic with ease and gas mileage actually increases in stop-and-go driving. Using sport mode with the paddle shifters could change your perspective on eCVT transmissions and on Camrys. Paddle response is faster than my Ford Fusion was. Controls are well designed, you don't have to flip around in the touch screen too much. I like the XSE interior and suspension much better than the SE or XLE. Unfortunately Toyota does not offer memory seats in the XSE, a huge mistake on a supposedly premium trim level. There are only two other glitches so far: Carplay preference turns off when you start the car using the phone app, and the radar sensors get blocked by snow build up too easily during winter driving. This might be my favorite car ever due to the combination of practicality and performance.

Just upgraded from 2023 le to 2025 le hybrid. Love my new car better then the old 2023. More power more upgrades overall best choice I ever made. 30 dollars to fill up makes my wallet happy, on a full tank I don't have to fill up til the following week. If you don't have a camry my friends I encourage you to get one.

Huge Improvement Over 2018 Camry

Randy, 07/27/2025
2025 Toyota Camry LE 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)
6 of 6 people found this review helpful

I had a 2018 Camry we bought new and traded it in on the new 2025 Camry. Loved the 2018, a great car and wouldn't even have considered getting rid of it, until, I test drove a 2025, hybrid Camry. Such a quiet very smooth driving car. I immediately fell in love with driving the 2025, instant acceleration with they hybrid when depressing the gas pedal because of the electric motor and gas combo when more acceleration needed, very responsive. I usually drive in eco mode, but standard mode is more responsive and gas mileage may suffer a little, not a huge difference, plus standard maybe a little more fun to drive. I cant tell when the gas engine starts or stops, very smooth. When accelerating harder, when the gas engine is running you can hear the engine noise, but I believe it is less noisy than the 2018. I was getting around 33mpg with the 2018 average all around driving, maybe up to 35mpg. Got around 40 on the highway. With the 2025 getting 48 to 50 all around driving and getting about 48 strictly highway doing around 75-78 mph. Just a joy to drive this car. It keeps you in the center of your lane in cruise mode on the interstates with that lane keeping activated. The 2018 would keep you in the lane, but may go from one side of the lane, correct then maybe go to the other side of the lane, but the 2025 keeps you in the middle and works well. You cannot go "hands free" for very long before you get a warning that that system will be disabled unless you do a slight correction. If you just keeps your hands on the wheel loosely, that little resistance is enough to keep that from happening as car knows your hands are on the wheel.. The model I have is the LE and has plenty of bells and whistles for me. Also just front wheel drive because of better gas mileage, less expensive and don't what to have to buy 4 new tires on the all wheel drive option if one tire goes bad as all tires need to be the same tread depth. Would I buy it again or just keep the 2018? Would definitely buy it again. LIke I said loved the 2018 and didn't plan on selling until it had at least 150,000 to 200,000 miles, until I drove the 2025 Camry, which are all hybrids. 2018 had 87,000 miles and got a good trade in, $14,000. Never had one problem with the 2018 and of course none with the 2025, have about 4000 miles on it. Had a 2011 Prius when I traded for the 2018 Camry, 175,000 miles, bought it used with around 30,000, was flawless, never one problem Toyota is one super reliable car and the hybrid system is perfected. The 2025 rides better also than the 2018, takes bumps in the road better. Only one complaint, the 2018 interior is nicer than the 2025, both are the LE model. They cheapened the interior of the 2025, I assume to keep costs down. Still not cheap looking, just some differences and not as nice. The ecvt transmission is a wonderful trouble free cvt type transmission. it's an electric cvt transmission. Some of the cvt transmissions today I don't think are as reliable as the Toyota ecvt's. The 2018 was a 8 speed regular transmission, which at times could be jerky, but once I got used to it, didn't bother me.

I have a base LE model. The hybrid operation is excellent - great pickup in eco mode. Very nice new ocean gem color. Trunk lighting is nice and the truck is good size. Seat room front and back is good. The seats are comfortable if not quite as comfy as the 2025 Nissan Altima we rented in CA earlier this year. The ride is very smooth and more quiet than my 2018 Sonata was - and it was fairly quiet. The interior is a bit of a plastic affair but I like that the touch screen is more incorporated into the dash than it is on the higher end models where a larger screen sits up like a flat-screen TV. The rear window is not particularly large - not the best visibility and I rely on the side mirrors and blind spot warning beeps. I like the lane assist and look forward to a future self-driving model that will allow me to kick back and play my banjo as I cruise across country. I don't like that it has only a 13 gallon tank as I'm concerned I'll get something around 100 miles short of the old 1.6 turbo Sonata's 600 mile highway range. A 500 mile range is still purdy good - we'll see what it actually is when this first tank is through. The electronics are an improvement over what I had in the Hyundai in that I don't need to plug my phone in (via USB cable) or even open my phone to have Android Auto displaying on the screen. There's been a bit of a frustrating learning curve in the operation of the screen features and correspondence to my phone. I'm also not fully clear on the advantages of the Toyota phone app. Turning on the car in advance to getting into the car seems to be the big draw to the app for some folks - okaaay. I'll have to see if there are other plusses that will make the app worth the 80 clams they'll charge me after the first year. Overall, my initial impressions of the 2025 Camry LE are well into the positive.

The seats are highly uncomfortable with the 'bump' at the bottom of the seat too short to sit on comfortably. AC does not work well because this automatic temperature control. Big screen for road connection that keep disconnecting and if you don't have a phone carplay you have to pay 20$ + taxes each month in Canada. You cannot press that screen to redial phone numbers wich is a huge downgrade. They removed a lot of storage space (glove box minuscule and hardly accessible). Very cheap summer carpet and the trunk lining very cheap and loose. Otherwise, nice looking and stable on the road, good sound proof.

Almost perfect

5 of 5 people found this review helpful

Grew up in a car culture family. Mercedes, BMW, Porsche in our house and monthly subscriptions to all the major publications in print. Funny how times change as I now seek “value” for my auto tastes. At home, we have a CRV, Insight and a Highlander. Although not hybrid, I recently experienced a late model Camry LE Hertz rental while on vacation in FL and I felt my experience was still relevant with common traits of any Camry. The value statement presented by Toyota is very compelling. On the highway holding 80 mph at 1,800 rpm. The driving dynamic takes a “4” driver to a “”6” on a 0-10 scale as a reference just based upon chassis, steering and suspension. It’s very forgiving for a “fleet car”. Braking excellent. I put 300 miles on the car within a week. Excellent seating support. Smooth highway offers a quiet cabin… until a semi tractor trailer comes along side, or the road surface has imperfections. The noise level becomes alarmingly intrusive. Check: Are rear windows down? No. Same for noise through floor boards. Hence, 4 stars instead of 5. Almost a perfect sedan for everyone. Perhaps, XLE mitigates this with noise reduction materials? Toyota: please invest to correct this cost effectively, and id suggest they nailed it. Not a Mercedes, but its not 1978 either.

40k is a lot of money to spend on a basic car, but that is the world we live in. That said, this one is an excellent value comparatively speaking. A spacious AWD hybrid that gets mid 40’s mpg…with plenty of amenities and legendary Toyota reliability. It was an easy decision.

We purchased a 2025 Toyota Camry XSE Hybrid in August 2024. It is the second Toyota Camry XSE Hybrid we have purchased from Northcutt Toyota (We handed down the 2023 to our college student when I purchased the 2025). Both cars are awesome but the 2025 has more features (integrated dash cam, heads-up display, cooled seats, and panoramic moonroof are the main ones) than the 2023. This is one of the nicest vehicles we've ever owned and has lots of great options at the XSE trim level. It handles great, has awesome "get up and go" and gets great gas mileage, too!

I have owned toyota vehicles for the past 20 years and so far this has been the worst I have ever experienced, And I have only had it a week. first let me add: Yes it gets good mileage, but that is about all I can say about it. First it is smaller than the 2015 Camry I have. second there is an annoying rattle in the dash that sounds like something is loose. Third the head rests are very uncomfortable and cannot be adjusted except up or down which does not help. Fourth: there is an unacceptable amount of road noise. Fifth: I had to subscribe to a navigation app in order to have GPS capability at $15.00 a month. Sixth: The passenger side manual seat adjustment is crap. That is all I have noticed up to this point, but I feel there will be more in my future.

We have had the 2025 Camry LE AWD for about 4 weeks. We had a 2018 Camry LE Hybrid before. The 2025 is good or better in all areas except mileage is about 4mpg less on average. That may improve over time as it did with the 20218. The ride is quieter and a bit smoother overall. It also seems to have a bit more power but the 2018 was no slouch. The controls are different and I am still getting used to everything. The cruise and adaptive cruise are better and the lane assist actually keeps the car in the middle of the lane. The 2018 just alerted and adjusted when you wandered too close to the line. I love it so far.

Overall I am pleased with the car. It is quiet, drives smoothly and good gas mileage in ECO mode. My only complaint is that the parking assist sensors are not included in the default XSE trim. You have to get the Premium Plus package for that option. That feature should be default on this trim level.

We've had our Reservoir Blue Camry for a little over 6 weeks now, and we're loving it! The gas mileage is phenomenal for a car this size. It's not unusual to get over 60 MPG on short jaunts. We've only filled it up maybe three times. Its ride quality is quiet and smooth (which is why we didn't want the SE model), and even though it's the bare-bottom base LE model, it's still brimming with great features! I was afraid that since it was a hybrid that it would accelerate like a snail, but I had to speed up rather quickly once to pass and it actually pushed me back in my seat! I was impressed with how quickly it accelerated when the electric motors kicked in! My advice--don't be afraid about it being a hybrid, because it's extremely powerful, and the car goes from EV mode to hybrid mode seamlessly. No, it isn't a race car, but that's not why I bought it anyhow. It's definitely a keeper and I love the great gas mileage and roominess!

I purchased the 2025 Camry LE with the convenience package and the weather package. It came with the all weather mats, and spoiler. I traded in my 2020 BMW X3 Xdrive 30i. It was loaded and handled really well. It had Navigation, Head's up display, Panoramic power sunroof, Harmon Karden surround sound, rain sensing wipers, parking assist, etc. I really enjoyed the car but approaching 47k miles we were worried about repairs and decided to jump back to Toyota. I've owned 7 Rav4's, including the Prime, a couple of Prius, and a Corolla many years ago. Other than the power window locks going out in a Prius, I have never had issues with any Toyota. With that said, going from a BMW to a Camry seemed to be a pretty big downgrade. However, I was really surprised, and very impressed by the new Camry. The MPG is phenomenal at 51-53. It handles really well considering the LE base doesn't have the sport suspension of the upgraded models. And it's very quiet in regards to road noise. When I talked to the Dealer, they low balled me a little on the BMW (about $400 les than Carmax offered), but they tossed in the extra packages (Convenience and Weather) for free, so I paid $28,700 + tags, tax, title. At this price point- with the solid handling and incredible MPG, especially with adding in the convenience items such as keyless entry, heated seats and steering wheel, power driver seat with lumbar, auto dimming rearview mirror with the Homelink garage door opener, etc., I think this car is an absolute steal. 225HP doesn't rival my BMW, but it's plenty quick with the hybrid system, and, as I mentioned, it handles really well. The trunk space is decent, too, which we were worried about coming from an SUV to a sedan, but you can fit 2 full 24" luggage, 2 20", 2 of the short ones, and 2 carry on bags, all in the trunk. I highly recommend the new Camry!

Failing electronics, failing AC unit, failing secondary electronics (steering wheel heat) GPS map costs additional $15/mo subscription. Average of 30mph in a hybrid is sub par. Paint is peeling on nearly every panel (some down to bare metal) tire pressure sensor system failed. This is all on a new 2025 vehicle. (I have owned many Toyotas, all new. I'm extremely disappointed in this car, it's performance and it's build quality is that one could have expected from a 2000s era Hyundai.)

The good: The gas mileage of Camry LE 2025 hybrid is amazing! I drove over 510 mile and only take 10 gallon to fill it up. The bad: The handles on the roof is over my shoulder, for both front seat and back seat. Should move forward at least half foot. The terrible: The headrests on back seat is way too forward. Bending my head very uncomfortably. I have to move my head between two headrest. BTW, I am a typical 5'10 male. I was a fan of Toyota and Lexus. I owned Camry before. 2025 Camry is the most uncomfortable car I've ever experienced.

Excellent But Not Exciting

2025 Toyota Camry SE 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)
5 of 6 people found this review helpful

Excellent Car, But Not Exciting. Long known as a sensible and practical midsize sedan, the Toyota Camry looks a little spiffier in 2025. I like that it is a hybrid only, looks nice, is comfortable, has lots of safety features and drives smoothly. It gets better than the expected gas mileage if I don't use the AC and don't go over the speed limit and am not in stop-and-go traffic. But here in the California desert it's hot in the summer and I have to often have the AC on, and that significantly affects the gas mileage. I got the Camry SE because it's a little sportier than the LE. I traded in my 2017 Camry SE, which I liked a lot, because I wanted a hybrid and wanted to beat the tariffs. The Camry isn't flashy. I would have preferred a Lexus, but didn't want to pay that much. I got a good deal on the Camry price, quite a bit under the MSRP, but should have gotten more on the trade of my relatively low mileage 2017 Camry. I would give each car a rating of 8 out of 10. My old Camry had slightly more trunk room and more room for rear seat passengers, but neither of those are that important for me. The car is also too low to the ground and thus not easy to get into. And the AC isn't quite strong enough here in the desert heat. Plus, the passenger side manual seat adjustment is crummy. A power passenger seat would have been good. I like saving money on gasoline, having a capable car, and one that can last for a long time and not require much maintenance. But it's not an exciting car by any means. It's a good family sedan, but my family is all grown and moved away. Maybe I should have gotten a sports car. Or a truck. I also have a 1998 Toyota Tacoma that I bought new and which has more than 457,000 miles on it. New Toyota trucks don't get good gas mileage and I found they weren't very comfortable and were difficult to climb up into at my old age with joint problems. I once wrote a poem about my old Tacoma not falling apart before I do. One of my daughters also has a 2025 Camry and likes it very much. I don't think you can go wrong with Toyota or Honda.

I bought my Ocean Gem Camry LE in the middle of January with the Cold Weather and Convenience Packages. The heated seats and steering wheel was a warm welcome. Good decision. I got the Convenience Package for the power driver's seat and door locks. The HomeLink is a wasted feature since I don't have a garage. I was drawn to the 2025 Camry because of the standard Hybrid and numerous safety features. I am pleased with how it handles on the highway and side streets. It has enough power to get me going into the 70+ mph line of traffic. I am not fond of the "fabric" trim on the dash and door. Not sure how to clean it if it gets dirty. I like the fabric seat pattern. The info screen should be a standard 12 inch instead of 8 without paying extra. This would certainly help with using the touch screen without taking your eyes off the road for too long. I wish there was a choice to choose between a dial or digital car speed display. The gas mileage is 48 with mostly highway miles. So far I have driven 1,500 miles in almost 3 months. I do have a 2013 Camry (160,000 miles) I am satisfied with but as I've gotten older, the 2025 Camry will serve me better with all the safety features. I have had to use several so far which is good to have. Sure makes me a better driver as well. I am enjoying retirement, so this will probably be my last car to purchase due to the cost. With the packages, I got the car I wanted without the several thousand dollar investment with the upper trims.

You get a hybrid, you get a hybrid!

First let me start off with saying I’m a little biased, this is our 6th Camry, we’ve had 4 cylinder versions, one V6, and now a hybrid. Very impressive vehicle, front seats (especially drivers seat is a bit high for my liking, even at the lowest seating position). But overall very seamless transition between gas and electric, quick enough for highway maneuvers, tech galore, and finally a very stylish Camry. Having owned a 2023 Accord Hybrid Touring I thought the Accord was the leader of vehicle dynamics, the Camry isn’t far behind. While neither will set your world on fire; they are fun, comfortable, roomy, practical, and inexpensive to operate. Back in the Toyota family, loving our Lexus ES300H and our Camry!

Seats are more comfortable than I thought they would be. Power is very adequate for this style and price. Many of the other options (standard and upgrades) are worth the extra cost. The steering wheel could tilt and telescope a tad more for better arm/hand comfort on long trips. No fog lights on the XSE!

My Bluetooth is always disconnecting. My screen goes black from time to time. This has been the worst car that I ever ever bought.

Toyota lost their way

I used to look forward to getting camry rental cars. Although boring, they were relatively quiet and drove decently. All of the driving aid/lane keeping are subpar to kia, Ford, Chevy, but still an ok car. Just rented a 2025 and it's awful. The screen keeps going white and unresponsive. The drive train is a clunky mess. Ebrake keeps auto engaging. All the new Toyotas are junk. Biggest recalls in history on tundra tacoma sequoia engines, transmissions, interior quality. What the heck happened to Toyota?

lack of comfort

The car feels much heavier than previous models. Steering wheel is very stiff and hard to turn due to the geometry of the car. Driver seat is not comfortable, back and should pains constantly. Speed and acceleration is the same like the previous models. UPDATE: AC wont cool the car down, Even on max. It seems like its a common issue with the 2025 models. I’ve seen a lot of cars at the dealer with this complaint.
