2025 Toyota Camry

Starting at $30,000 est

BY DREW DORIAN

Overview

It might not be the most exciting choice, but the Toyota Camry is popular for its affordability, spaciousness, and efficiency. For 2025, the family sedan gets a fresh look and bolsters its thrifty credibility by switching its once-broad powertrain lineup—which just last year included a V-6 as well as both hybrid and nonhybrid four-cylinders—to include only two hybrid options. Available in either front- or all-wheel drive, the new hybrid-only Camry produces as much as 232 horsepower. Toyota hasn’t announced one yet, but we could see a more powerful plug-in hybrid Camry Prime this time around, too. The interior has been revamped with more modern infotainment tech and styling inspired by the larger Crown sedan, but the Camry remains a mid-size car intent on challenging competitors such as the Honda Accord and the Hyundai Sonata.

What’s New for 2025?

The Camry enters its ninth generation with the 2025 model year, complete with a styling overhaul, a redesigned cabin, and a revised set of exclusively hybrid powertrains.

Pricing and Which One to Buy

The price of the 2025 Toyota Camry is expected to start around $30,000 and go up to $37,000 depending on the trim and options.

LE $30,000 (est)

SE $32,000 (est)

XLE $35,000 (est)

XSE $37,000 

Toyota hasn’t released pricing yet for the 2025 Camry, but given its new hybrid-only lineup we’re expecting to see the window stickers increase over last year’s model. Of the four models that Toyota will offer at launch, the mid-range XLE trim will likely satisfy most buyers. It adds nice-to-have features such as larger 12.3-inch infotainment and digital gauge displays, heated front seats, leather upholstery, ambient interior lighting, and more.

Engine, Transmission, and Performance

A duo of hybrid powertrains is available on the 2025 Camry, one powering the front wheels and one driving all four. Front-wheel drive models get a 2.5-liter four-cylinder and two electric motors that combine for 225 horsepower while all-wheel drive ones add a third motor that drives the rear axle and increases combined output to 232 ponies. A continuously variable automatic transmission is standard with both setups. These powertrains are similar to what’s found in the Toyota Prius, just with a 2.5-liter in place of the Prius’ 2.0-liter four. When we get a chance, we’ll take the new Camry to our test track and update this story with test results.

Fuel Economy and Real-World MPG

The EPA hasn’t released fuel economy estimates for the 2025 Camry yet, but we expect it to earn similar ratings as last year’s hybrid models. That car was rated as high as 51 mpg city and 53 mpg highway. When we get a chance, we’ll take the new Camry on our 75-mph highway fuel economy test route and update this story with its real-world mpg.

Interior, Comfort, and Cargo

Inside the Camry’s spacious interior, there’s plenty of room for adults to get comfortable in the front and back seats. The dashboard design is highlighted by a large trim piece that stretches from the passenger’s side to the infotainment display. Cloth upholstery is standard, as is dual-zone automatic climate control, and rear air vents. XLE and XSE models add leather upholstery, heated seats, a heated steering wheel, ambient lighting, acoustic-laminated glass, an auto-dimming rear-view mirror, and adjustable rear-seat headrests.

Infotainment and Connectivity

While the LE and SE trims get an 8.0-inch infotainment display, the XLE and XSE models come with a larger 12.3-inch unit. Either way, both screens run Toyota’s latest software interface, which we’ve found intuitive and quick. All models come with a digitized gauge display too, but only those top two trims get the larger 12.3-inch fully digital version. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard across the board and work wirelessly on all trims. A nine-speaker JBL stereo system is an optional upgrade, but likely only on Camrys with the larger 12.3-inch infotainment system.

Safety and Driver-Assistance Features

All Camrys will come with a standard suite of driver-assistance features that includes automated emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection, automatic high-beam headlamps, adaptive cruise control, and even a feature that helps the driver prepare for curves by gently applying the brakes. For more information about the Camry’s crash-test results, visit the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) websites. Key safety features include:

• Standard automated emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection
• Standard lane-departure warning and lane-keeping assist
• Standard adaptive cruise control with a lane-centering feature

Warranty and Maintenance Coverage

While rivals such as the Hyundai Sonata and the Kia K5 have longer warranty periods in this class, Toyota holds its own with two years of complimentary scheduled maintenance.

• Limited warranty covers three years or 36,000 miles
• Powertrain warranty covers five years or 60,000 miles
• Hybrid components are covered for eight years or 100,000 miles
• Complimentary maintenance is covered for two years or 25,000 miles
