Yup! Just change your oil every 3,000 miles and transmission oil every 15,000-25,000 miles and timing belts and spark plugs and drive belts and engine mounts and coolant and fuel filter these things last forever.
I test drove the XSE and completely agree with John’s review. I ultimately went with a Corolla Hybrid since it was considerably less to purchase and within my budget. And love the intro to this video - “whether you say Cam-ray or Camry”, absolutely epic. A nod to the earlier Camry reviews he did. 😃
To put things in perspective , the Camry Hybrid made its debut in 2007 with 178 hp, 38 mpg and a base price around $26,500. For 2025 the base Camry LE provides 225 hp, 51 mpg and far more features for a price of $29,500. Is there a better sedan bargain in the USA? I know there isn't one in Canada because the brains trust running Toyota Canada has decided our base model will be the SE. 😡😡
Base Tesla or AWD long range Tesla Model 3 is a better deal, assuming you don't drive over 250 miles a day. MUCH more power, and all the bells and whistles like vented seats come standard. $7500 credit off in the USA. Little more money but you get a lot more. I have free charging at my apartment, but even if you have a house you can charge at home, the electric costs less than gas, and that's TN, not CA like you might expect. Also, Tesla does not have dealerships, the price is just the price. I was looking at a Toyota Rav4 hybrid a while back and it was 5k over MSRP. Guy told me they sell for that price and if I don't like it don't buy it. So I didn't.
😅😅 Mr Davis... My 2017 Camrayyy now has •updated mileage 222,222 miles on that I bought right off the showroom floor. Mint inside and outside, everything has held up. Only tires , 1 battery and free oil chsnges every 10k , 1 set of front brakes last summer . All other items are stock. It doesn't leak, burn or rattle . Only money i have spent on upkeep. Everything Runs smooth as silk and couldn't tell by mileage or wear on interior or exterior. Amazing quality by yota.
@Papa-o33963 ohhh thats how cars work eh? Shux you're a genius. 14k a year is now considered average mileage per year, used to be 10k. So that's pretty high mileage then isn't it? Are you a BOT or a poor black guy from Ghana on free wifi with no money, life or options on a free iPad you dug out of our trash we shipped to your country?
@@adamfrbs9259 lol it's a ton of miles certainly! I drive 75 miles to my office in DC one way. Plus I use it often bopping around on days off. I have a 2022 4 runner I bought new , and still drive the car more due to general comfort and driving dynamics vs suv.
I'm still driving my 20-year-old 2004 Camry LE with 61,500 miles🎆🎉! Was purchased new in November 2003 💸! I have no plans to buy a new Camry; they are tanks and will run forever with proper maintenance ✅! TOYOTA STRONG 💪! 💰💵👏👍🙏
The Frontend reminds of the Supra MK3 styling....Kinda cool....Toyota actually made the dashboard look cool and not have the screen look like its Glued to the dash!
I have a 19 year old employee that is super excited by seeing an elderly woman who had a 1991 Camry. He loves old cars. I can relate. I have had owned many Camry's sometime multiple times.
We’ve driven camrys since 1996. We used them around 5-6 years with 100,000 miles then Trade them in. Dealer always pay top dollar like our last 2017 bought originally for $23K traded in 2023 with 93,000miles for $18,000. These cars super durable and reliable. You only need oil change once a year like $19.99 and you’re all set. Most expensive we’ve spent are tires $500/set at costco every 65,000 miles
Enjoy your '23 but the '25 Camry hybrid is hardly an experimental car! The Camry hybrid has been around for over 16 years now and Toyota makes the best hybrids in the business.
I have a 2016 Toyota Camry SE. Barely broken in at 125K miles on it! The 2.5L 178HP isn't a drag strip winner however it does hold its own for daily commuting without a fuss!
I was going to buy this new camry but the dealer near me hade only 3 in stock and 2 on hold so I ended up with a 23 xse black on top and blue lower at 15 000 miles and paid 30ks in all with tax.
Peter: ah ah he said it, he said it. I can't believe he said Camray. anyway, this camry looks evolutionary. but despite the recalls that Toyota had on some of their cars, i think its no wonder why some brands aren't making sedans no more.
One of the reasons cars are so expensive is the fact that if you want to get a 'sport tuned suspension' and pay extra for it on the base LE ..you cant. That is the way you bought a car in 1966. Now..they make you buy the 'package' Even though the package stinks
The New Camry seems smaller compared to the last year’s model. Also, I hate the CVT transmission, why couldn’t they just keep the traditional 6 speed transmission?
The exterior looks great and that particular color on your test car was beautiful, but the interior dash looked clunky as if they didn't put any thought into making it look fluid.
That’s because the interior isn’t completely all new. You can see behind the left side of the screen is a piece of grey plastic where the previous gen Camry had its air vents. In 2021, Toyota shifted the screen higher for its facelift and just put a piece of plastic in the spot where the 2018 air vents were. Toyota is doing it again but it’s not as obvious since the new screen is bigger. The gear shifter and lower parts of the door trim are exactly the same as the previous gen.
I got a 2021 xse v6 3 5 >> black roof red lower good car mpg are about 24 mpg not bad for the size of car. I may upgrade to a 25 new body style and get way better mpg. But car looks OK and quick I don't drive along
It’s interesting how car manufacturers are axing sedans off their lineups because they think people are not interested in sedans anymore… If the Honda accord or Nissan Maxima came as an AWD, plug in hybrid with 50 miles of EV range and 50 miles per gallon in hybrid mode, I would buy one in a heartbeat, but instead of making their sedans more competitive, they just get rid of them.
The Honda Clarity was pretty much just a lift back plug-in hybrid Accord rated for 42mpg combined in hybrid mode, or 47 miles on electric only. They're not making them anymore but you can get them used dirt cheap. Pretty close to what you're wishing for, and it was launched way back in 2018, now discontinued. "You don't know what you've got til it's gone". Hopefully they will eventually replace it with an Accord plug-in like they replaced the outgoing 2022 Insight with the 2025 Civic Hybrid
This is a sedan that you can live with. I hate CVT's but because it is the hybrid and has AWD I suppose it is acceptable. Not bad from Toyota though I have to say
Every review I see for new Toyotas's all praise the looks, but none ever state the fact that the "look" comes from the 2023 Prius. Every new toyota looks like a bigger, fatter Prius inches front. Give credit where it's due.
If you want the V6 for it's smoothness and reliability, then yes. Somehow (for me at least), 300+ hp and FWD do not play nice together. I wanted the last Japanese V6 drivetrain in a sedan - even going as far as considering 53k+ for a Lexus ES350 with FSport Handling package - hoping the firmer suspension would allow the car to translate all those ponies to acceleration. But it didn't. 1/2 throttle from a stop, just breaks the wheels loose and engages the traction control and that ends the party. I was all ready for it to be the last car I ever own (I keep my cars for 10+ years). My 2015 Honda Accord EX-L V6 is able to put more of its power down before the traction control takes over. With the Honda V6 gone from the Accord, and now the Toyota V6 gone from the Camry, and probably soon from the ES - I tried so hard to like it.
Seems like a weird choice for Toyota to make all their cars look the same, which is to say like Lexuses with slightly different spindle grilles. I mean, I like my bZ4x, but it sure looks a lot like a Crown or a Prius or a Camry or a RZ.
I know it's a great car, I'm just not a fan of the huge front grill. IDK what Toyota is doing or thinking. Most of their cars have a huge grill. I just don't like it.
Nice review and I have a question on the engine. Is it Atkinson cycle? If so, are there any reliability reports on this engine? We are on our 4th Camry, a 2011 and the 2.5L refuses to die at 137,000 miles. I am planning to replace the brakes for the first time in the next couple of months. In my numerous cross country trips with this 2011 Camry, I can honestly say that it has superb acceleration on the highway from 60MPH to 80MPH, which as most of you know many Western highways have an 80MPH speed limit. Not sure why there are so many negative comments about appearance, but I prefer a long relationship with a vehicle, vice buying the best looking car (Hyundai/KIA) that does not last as long.
Lol plenty of life left in your car. My 2017 just hit 221,700 miles and the stock rear brakes per dealers today are at 4mm. These things are very well engineered and are virtually bullet proof. New one shouldn't be that bad either really
The V6 Camry could do it a smidgen under 6 seconds and trap speed near 100mph on the 1/4. The hybrid is not bad but don't confuse it's anywhere in the same class as the old V6 in terms of raw power.
Wait - It has a 2.5L gas engine and two electric motors in the AWD version and it's 232 hp total? Are the electric motors taken out of RC cars? The weaker front motor of a Tesla ALONE is 232 hp. Seriously, what does each electric motor put out? like 7 hp?
@@moejr1974 First off, that isn't what I said. My point was the electric motors must be extremely weak if adding one gives 7hp (assuming I did that right... 225hp-232 hp) which is just odd to me... why add 7 hp? Second, if you are going to have a "sport" trim, you actually DO need some power to justify that.
@@Cruor34 got to be some method to the madness. Maybe they lower the power in the front motor to equalize the back. No flipping clue how these engineeers come up with this stuff

AWD with extra motor adds less than 10hp. So it basically works for the first 10mph then not enough power to help after that. Dern.
