  • The 2025 Camry is all-new with the fifth generation hybrid that add 17 hp and 24 hp more than the last hybrid Camry. Outside takes styling from the Crown with new lighting, bumpers and wheel designs. Inside get upgraded screens for the standard 7-inch touchscreen to an 8-inch and a 12.3-inch touchscreen option. Toyota Safety sense 3.0 is added but no more TRD Camry or other engine option is available. The SE Camry and XSE Camry will keep the sport tuned suspension and sporty exterior style with a rear defuser.

    Very little difference between the SE & XSE this generation, the SE has everything the XSE has minus the panoramic sunroof , leather seats , 19 inch wheels & 12.3 inch multimedia screen, and the SE even give you options to add a sunroof and a bigger media screen. I think the SE and LE are gonna make up majority of the sales especially since Toyota safety sense 3.0 is standard on all trims. Also the all black rims look way better on the SE .

      ​​@@HawkeyeRides Hello Anthony, as always excellent review and great summary of the features. in my opinion the SE wins hands down and i wouldn't consider the XSE unless its a certified used car. However i did have one question about the camera on the SE. Is there any way to add a front or 360 camera as a factory option? i understand a dashcam option is available but i was more interested in a parking feature. I'm also really happy Toyota added rear vents on all trims.

      @Liger._King 3 місяці тому +3

      I also do not like the black spoiler on a white Camry. But the feature that I hate so much in this current generation of Camry compared to the immediate predecessor is the one-sided quasi exhaust outlet. It should have been located on both sides like the previous gen. If they must have it on one side, it looks better on the passenger side than on the driver side. Passenger side exhaust outlet used to be Toyota signature, but they've ruined it now.
      Doing away with the v6 is another disappointment. In fact, it's a huge disappointment! At first, Toyota had seemed to be the only manufacturer that was not going to join the bandwagon 4-cylinder turbo, hybrid nonsense. But I quickly knew we had lost Toyota when they started pairing 4-cylinder with turbo in their Lexus lineup. However, I'm glad they still have exhaust tips visible, unlike what they did with the Crown.
      What's the whole point of hiding tail pipes when the emission is still there, even though it is hidden? That's one of those senseless influences by environmentalists. Environmentalists are nut jobs.

      Spoilers and 19" wheels are tacky and silly... Form should follow function, and I think Toyota seems guilty of more tacky add-ons than other makes... another example: that fake plastic window in the C pillar; previous generation had glass there (or far less plastic).
