Reasons FOR and AGAINST: 2025 Toyota Camry
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 вер 2024
- The 2025 Toyota Camry, labeled as the ninth generation, is more of a mild facelift than a complete redesign. Starting under $30,000, it retains the same dimensions and many features as its predecessor. Notable changes include revised front and rear fascias and new color options. The major update is the switch to an all-hybrid lineup, eliminating the base four-cylinder gas engine and the optional V6. The sole drivetrain is a hybrid system combining a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine with one or two electric motors, producing 225 horsepower (232 hp for AWD models). The suspension has been retuned for better responsiveness, but the overall setup remains similar. Interior dimensions are unchanged, though new color and trim options, along with updated seat designs, enhance comfort. The latest infotainment systems offer wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus over-the-air updates. Trim levels have been streamlined to LE, SE, XLE, and XSE, with the TRD model discontinued. Competitors include the Honda Accord and Hyundai Sonata, both offering hybrid and non-hybrid variants.
*Positives:*
- Standard fuel-efficient hybrid drivetrain
- All-wheel drive available on all trims
- Spacious cabin with high-tech features
*Considerations:*
- No high-powered V6 option
- Fewer trims to choose from

Nothing is going to stop this car from selling ..nothing.
It's a Camry known for its build quality reliability fuel economy and comfort. The V6 will be missed but screw EV!
I bought the 2025 Camry LE in red. I love it and that is coming from a 2007 Honda Accord EX-L with a 240 hp V6. Although the Camry does not have quite the jump factor that the Honda did but it does have more than ample power and the handling is responsive. The hybrid engine set up is pretty much seamless and the car is pretty quiet. For me the Camry checks all the boxes.
how much out the door?
@wagyu_killer im getting 2025 SE $31300 for the car taxes tags is separate.. white black interior.. no accessories no options but the standard.. I didn't wanna be force to have to buy overpriced accessories
I rented a se had sn annoying high pitch sounds when regen or breaking ? My 2020 hybrid is quite when doing the same thing
In my opinion people that buy Toyota look for dependability…and seem to forget about everything else. In my honest opinion any vehicle make/model will take care of you if you take care of it. I buy a car for what I need/want, not the manufacturer names alone.
You'll pay Toyota tax. It's no longer the most dependable brand.
That's what I've been saying - all manufacturers - yes that includes TOYOTA - produce lemons from time to time, and all of them produce bulletproof models from time to time.
The badge on the grill should NEVER be taken as the end-all, be-all Seal Of Quality.
the “Toyota tax” is fake. Compare the depreciation of an 8-year old Camry to an 8-year old Hyundai Sonata (if you can find one that is still in service)
Your opinion is based on what? You're crazy if you think all manufacturers are created equal. If reliability is the most important thing for you are you going to get a Jeep? Probably not..
@@xiondFirst this is biggest cope lol
The new camry reviews are very good, they have improved on the past platform, i think it drives better too
Off road capability?! Come on!! You are ridiculously hilarious.
Thanks
How does camry hybrid have higher maintenance costs. One of the most reliable hybrids out there.
Despite what is stated, a Toyota hybrid does not have higher maintenance costs. The hybrid battery comes with a 10-year/150,000 warranty. The hybrid components have an 8-year/100,000 mile warranty. With regenerative braking, the brake pads are hardly used and will last much longer. With the gas motor running much less than a standard engine, it will receive much less wear and tear and last longer. Toyota has been doing hybrid for almost 28 years. This guy knows not what he speaks.
@@daviddryden9728how much to replace the battery with labor after warranty is up?
If you want to go fast and have such an amazing experience go buy yourself a 2025 mustang or anything more sporty than a Camry, like cmon. A basic model mustang will run you the same as that XSE, about 40 grand. The 2025 Camry is fire and feels like a damn electric car, very simplistic and sharp. Get a ‘25 Camry if you want something reasonably priced and luxurious.
you can’t compare a sedan like a Camry to a Subaru CUV, at least not with a straight face
He didn't. The Subaru Legacy is a 4 door sedan that competes with the Camry.
Ok where to start, this video is full full of holes so I’ll guess I’ll start here
1: none of the competitors offer V6s in their family sedans so Toyota dropping theirs is a moot (domestic brands don’t even make a single family passenger car now that Chevy has killed off the Malibu).
2: using the Subaru Legacy as a comparison is disingenuous since it’s been discontinued.
3. The only potential failure point the hybrid system would need replacement on would be the traction battery, but this tends to last 15 years on average and replacements are 2k at their lowest if you shop around. Most other components on the hybrid require less maintenance then its gasoline counterpart.
Not to mention 12 15 yrs if u have to replace something, it's probably less than half the price as today
Agree this video is hilarious bs 🤣🤣🤣 dislike it right away
All of these reasons are stupid lol. It's a great car
Buyers , check the the bumper headlight gap. The bumper is attached to the headlights there’s clips . A lot of new buyers having issues right now. Bad design.
I don’t buy n e new model for at least 3 years till the bugs are worked out. This will have issues..
It was the hybrid only availability thing that got me
That would *_attract_* me to buying it. Makes the hybrid cheaper than before, through economies of scale.
@@aliendroneservices6621 hybrids are not that far off from regular gas especially considering the toxicity of lithium and other factors involved including electrical safety if you’re in a huge wreck etc
@@Spenceycat123 sorry but you’re dead wrong. The Hybrid camry has way better mileage AND reliability than the non-hybrid. Do your research.
@@evilwhitey98 what’s gonna happen whenever you need a new battery pack in 10-15 years and they don’t even replace the whole pack just cells within the pack that are bad.
@@Spenceycat123 plenty of early Priuses on the road with 300-400k on the odometer. Bullet proof transmissions and overall fantastic quality bodes well for long term ownership even with a battery replacement 15 years down the line.
The blind boomer fear of batteries is pretty hilarious given the huge advantage Toyota hybrids bring over their ICE only competition. The cost of a new Hybrid battery is a whole lot less than replacing a transmission and a whole lot more successful as well.
If you’re the type to only drive 5k a year then yes, a Hybrid isn’t for you. But for people driving 15k+ a year they make a ton of sense.
Driving it without the 300 horse power is definitely a con
I would not buy the XSE until they drop the FORCED-Option of the defective full glass roof! They charge consumers $1300+ for the glass roof, even though most customers don't want it! Also, the glass roof has issues with the glass roof shattering for no apparent reason, then Toyota refuses to replace it under warranty. There is a defect in that glass roof, and Toyota charges extra for it as an option?! NO WAY TOYOTA!
After what's been happening to Tundra pick up trucks, I no longer see toyota as the most reliable brand. Additionally I feel like camry isn't as affordable as it use to be so college students or families on tight budgets won't be able to afford it unless they go for lowest trim and without premium package
So go for the lowest trim😂,the basic LE model is beautiful inside and out all the features are amazing.
Props for jumping right into the info on the car. Love I didn't have to watch an intro.
I want a SE AWD for 32k OTD
EVs suck.Loving my 2024 Camry Hybrid Nightshade Edition
No need for electric
1. Limited availability
2. Zero discounts
3. In some cases, ABOVE MSRP pricing.
$4000 off MSRP Chuck-look around-The lots are filling up with the 25s-You must own a Honda or Hyundai-sorry to hear that.
@@chriszawertany5242 Not in Atlanta. I got out the door pricing from 3 dealers last week. They had zero XLE’s in stock and were selling at over MSRP when you added the semi-worthless dealer add-ons like ceramic.
pay the higher price, save a lot in depreciation. Pay me know, pay me later.
@@chriszawertany5242😂😂😂😂 I call bs 4k off msrp... 2025 aren't even on the lot. Went to few places they had 1 or a few that were already sold... lmfao msrp is almost 32k and ur got 2025 se for 28k... 😂😂😂😂😂 ok
Look up Haley Toyota of Farmville (Virginia) they have a 2025 SE marked $3,000 off msrp. Dealers will deal on these. Just look around
Excellent review. I owned a 2000 Solara, then a 2002 Camry and realized I wanted a more practical vehicle, with at least a lift back... since Toyota offered none I bought a new 2008 Toyota 4Runner RWD and never looked back. After over 15.5 years it has been the best vehicle I have ever owned. Everything still looks and drives like new. Iowa winters are no problem.
Never buy a vehicle based on its brand name or model
yes, agreed. But do avoid them, like Hyundai and Kia. Plenty of reason to stay far away.
@@MJA5👍
You should if it's a Honda or Toyota
@@Ps3COD4Fanuhmm no .. They also have issues and problems a lot hust like BMW
