I’d say for me personally I think the xle is my favorite trim level because it cost a little less than the xse and I prefer the more luxe theme than sporty
I tend to agree with you it cost a little bit more but it’s nicer but I prefer the base Lexus ES 350 the price difference between the XLe and the ES 350 is not as much as you think about 4000😊 iPhone for Toyota Camry and currently on a 2015 Ellie honestly I would get the Ellie and save the money because it’s 27,000 versus 34,000 and you can later on for two to $3000 add leather seats if you want
@@blackgold754 pretty much the same thing the excess is a little bit more sportier but some say the XL is a little bit more comfortable on long rides I think the XL has nicer leather seats
Test drove a 2025 Camry LE FWD today and came away impressed. First thing that surprised me is how comfortable the front cloth seats are. It was like sitting in a super cushy Lazy Boy recliner. They were cushy and very supportive at the same time. Car drove smoothly.
Picked up the Supersonic Red Camry SE on the Third. Definitely an awesome car; performance is top notch, comfortable similar to a luxury vehicle. …Explore new roads…🙂

Some people live in areas where there are far more buyers than vehicles available so all you master negotiators paying less than MSRP are fortunate and I’m happy for you. If I don’t pay MSRP I don’t get a car or have to travel out of state for one. I know there are some, not all, people are paying under MSRP but they coincidentally are financing vs paying cash, and are paying that reduced price back in interest.
I’m in Oklahoma and the dealer took $2300 off and threw in window tint and all weather mats and a cargo organizer. I financed with Toyota for 24 months @ 5.25% on July 2nd but I have cash saved to pay it off. I sent $8000.00 to principal yesterday plus first payment. I’ll probably pay it off in September. My money is making a lot more in stocks. And having some revolving credit is good. My other assets and cars are paid off.
The new Kia K5 is beautiful, but for the same price I can get essentially the same trim levels in the Camry AND 20+ more MPG! Amazing how the other manufacturers continue to take one step forward and two steps back.
I really do like the new Camry, but all those different packages to choose from would leave my head spinning. Currently have a 2018 Honda Accord touring that came with ventilated seats and HUD. Going to keep it, but the Camry really is intriguing.
I'm hoping this car performs better than last years model in the updated side and moderate overlap tests. Safety is everything, especially if you have children.
I like the 2024 front end better, don't like the catfish look. But one could get used to it. I have a le 2024 and it has the great lakes package heated seats steering wheel heated mirrors, it's more then I need. Cheers from northern indiana usa
Toyota is doing right by this car. Many features available even to the base model and if it want more luxury then you can step up. Pricing is really good. Hopefully it's just as reliable as the previous model that wasn't a hybrid.
I test drove an se and the lumbar support was horrible. It was like the plastic was pushing in my back and the salesman felt it also. A deal breaker. I wonder if the xle has a better seat. I could tell it didn’t have much cushion in the lumbar area. Make sure you test out the seat before purchasing there isn’t enough padding.
I would love to buy a 2025 Camry XSE, but absolutely refuse to have a full glass roof! I do want the XSE though. I like the interior better, also the wheels on the XSE versions. I don't want a sun-roof at all, I want a solid metal roof. Yet, Toyota is charging the customer for the glass roof, $1300! What? It's an "uption"? Yes, an UPTION! Uption= Up-Charge, No-choice-option! They charge you for the option that you don't even want or need. I will probably have to settle for an S.E. version, since one can purchase an S.E. without a sunroof. It seems like a really lame thing that Toyota has recently started doing to their customers....screwing them.
My guy naveen, you heard about what happened recently? Car Confections gave the TX 1st place for midsize luxury SUVs under $75,000, how do you feel about this?
Still doesn't make sense that the accord doesn't have it as an option. Just because the pano roof has issues doesn't make it an excuse for another automaker, not to add it
can you compare the 2025 camry to the 2025 prius. they have very similar power trains and price points in this generation. i know prius has a hatch and more useful cargo but camry is more subtle ride. but i feel people will cross shop these two due to the similar price point.
I just put my deposit down for my 2025 Camry XSE AWD fully loaded exact spec black interior, with the two tone roof wind chill Pearl white. I’m super stoked! 360 degree camera, pano roof, heated and ventilated seats, jbl premium audio. The only one I’ve been able to find in the nation with every option and color I wanted. Thoughts should I buy? Ya or nay? Why or why not? I’m genuinely interested in people’s opinions on longevity, price/value/features & resale value residual in the future? I think it will be a fantastic long term car.
The Toyota Camry is a fine car and I have owned four of them, and I currently own a 2015 but I’m going to get Alexis ES 350 because there’s only a $4000 difference between the 350 and the Toyota Camry XLe
@@CarGeek360 those aren’t bad but fully loaded and new you are looking at 52,000 for the black label. I an looking at the RX 350 F Sport AWD and the ES 350 will probsbly get the Rx first
8th gen still superior imo. But do like the interior better mainly the fact that seat vents are standard on all trims. I honestly think they reused the side mirrors from the 8th gen 😂
@@codedabyssal I read somewhere that key fob remote start is free for 10 years but phone remote start required the connected service. I find it confusing and outrageous that you have to pay to start a vehicle that already had a high starting price. I would be fine if it was a 20k GM car or 25k Toyota but to spend 38 grand on a Camry and not have lifetime remote start is crazy.
So didn’t Toyota switch to a lithium battery for this car? Where is it located and how does the car look underneath? I would be interested in more technical details
The Camry hybrid LE has had a lithium battery since 2018, all other trims since 2020. The battery is under the back seat and there’s a sticker under the engine bonnet that tells you your battery type.
The LE base trim comes with the power driver seat with lumbar, really??!! If that's the case I would like the base LE with the comfy and fuel saving small tires.
I may go with the new 2025 Camry, but I may give it a year before I do so. AWD + Hybrid standard, and overall very reliable is a positive. People may not like how the front looks, but I've seen it in person and it looks much nicer in person.
@@joshua9073 its form over function - the triangle is not a good use of space - plus, overall - the air vents should be under the display so you can keep your eyes on the road
I asked my dealer to buy me floor mats from parts department to seal the deal, and manager went and got me all weather floor mats and he also threw in a cargo organizer for the trunk, it has an ice chest in it.

Every new car without its premium sound system sounds absolutely terrible and for you guys to get an XSE and not option to JBL sound systems really interesting all that other stuff that it has in the packages is fine whatever but if the sound system is shi wha the point of the whole car tbh
JBL is our least favorite "branded" audio system, so we didn't view it as worth paying extra for in this case since the standard system is decent already

Thank you! Would love to see you try it with kids booster seats in the back can you fit three across?
Heated seats and keyless entry being available on the base trim is such a win and so extremely rare to see in the industry.
I think about all cars have heated seats on their lower trims and keyless entry too.
I’d say for me personally I think the xle is my favorite trim level because it cost a little less than the xse and I prefer the more luxe theme than sporty

Great choice. Looking forward to your future tests. I hope Toyota adds the memory seat option to more trim options
Thanks! Yeah we think they should have memory seats on both XLE and XSE at least
How long will the battery last and how much of replace? I'm hoping that with so many hybrids it'll be more affordable.
I just decided this morning I wanted a new Camry for the first time ever. Great timing.
Same for me 2 weeks ago and I bought it.

It does. I just bought mine on the 2nd
If this does well on the IIHS moderate overlap, it’ll be my next vehicle. (CX5 Turbo if not).

Hey guys nice view, but I think I like the Honda Accord better than the Camry.
Are the seats comfortable for long trips and how are the brakes with this new gen hybrid ?
Considering the blistering speed of this Camry I'd say the brakes do a sufficient job of stopping the car 😂
I want the red interior, no moon roof, no black trim, JBL, and Homelink. Not available. Toyota needs to make some options a la carte.
I test drove an se and the lumbar support was horrible. It was like the plastic was pushing in my back and the salesman felt it also. A deal breaker. I wonder if the xle has a better seat. I could tell it didn’t have much cushion in the lumbar area. Make sure you test out the seat before purchasing there isn’t enough padding.
