It is price mentioning how intelligent the first-ever AWD setup to be provided on a Camry is.Intelligent? I believed a variety of vehicles already did that.
My understanding of the phrase intelligent is that it doesn’t connote originality or novelty, it simply means sensible or clever. However to your level, I did just a little little bit of browsing and discovered that Toyota/Lexus is the one automaker utilizing an electrical motor to drive the rear wheels in an awd hybrid setup. The one different awd hybrids that I may discover (Ford Escape, Honda CR-V, Hyunda Tucson Hybrid and Santa Fe Hybrid, and Kia Sorento and Sportage) all have mechanical rear drivetrains. Did you’ve gotten another fashions in thoughts that I missed?

2025 mannequin would not carry a lot to the desk. No V6 choice, obnoxiously giant contact screens, superfluous AWD and many others. Until it is advisable haul greater than 2 folks I would get a GR86 for a day by day driver as an alternative at that value vary.

Its not a joke. If you’ll go spend that form of cash, no less than get a automobile that does not really feel like a soulless fridge and make you look unhappy.

Is the 2025 Toyota Camry obtainable but? If that’s the case, have you ever pushed one? What are your ideas on the automobile? The 2025 was redesigned and a few folks say to not purchase a automobile the primary yr of a redesign as a result of there are bugs that present up and get mounted by the following yr.Rented one in Columbus, OH final week and drove about 800 miles. I barely received 39 mpg driving totally on interstate 1-71 between Cincinnati and Cleveland. I may have accomplished as effectively driving an ICE 2024 Toyota Corolla. Do understand that every one future Camry autos are hybrids.
I don’t like a variety of the security options. It feels at instances that you simply lose management over the car, particularly in passing on a busy interstate.
The expertise on the car could be very effectively examined and usually will get very excessive opinions.
I rented a brand new Sienna Hybrid earlier this yr and received about 35mpg freeway with it very absolutely loaded, so 39 with a Camry appears just a little disappointing.
We now have in combination obtained 43mpg since buy of a Camry SE Hybrid throughout all driving situations and the transmission set to Eco mode more often than not.

I drove it as a rental few weeks in the past.Good
Nice fuel mileage: ~44MPG. Drove about 800 miles. Avg freeway velocity ~80MPH. Max Pace 105MPH. Elevation (0 elevation to 9500Ft).
Clean trip.
Airplay integration was through bluetooth. No cable wantedUnhealthy
I did not know disable lane help. So everytime I needed to change the lane with out indicator the steering wheel vibrated. This was annoying
Rear air situation was weak
Trunk area was limitingI’d think about it as a second automobile if I had been out there.
That is why I would by no means purchase a used rental.
Re: 2025 Toyota Camry
Oh sure. I didn’t get an excellent deal by an extended shot. Approx 40k for an XLE (with trade-in) out the door. Zero regrets.
Then ’tis just like the breath of an unfee’d lawyer.

Whoops, sorry. Bought me there.
Out there in both front- or all-wheel-drive configurations, the brand new hybrid-only Camry produces as a lot as 232 horsepower.

Re: 2025 Toyota Camry
$40k plus you gave them your previous (probably not that previous) Camry? How a lot did they permit for the previous(er) Camry?

I do not concur with that. The XLE and SE fulfill very related buy budgets and thus are in direct competitors with one another for a sale. Edited the sooner publish to reference their related price.

Ah you know the way this sport is performed. Previous to getting into the dealership I had used the Toyota.com web site to present me a trade-in worth by getting into the info, roughly 10k. The seller lowballed that right down to round 5-6k, telling me that they do not know the place I presumably may have gotten that authentic determine, and many others. I received them as much as about 8k, however solely by agreeing to take out a mortgage which the phrases are you can’t repay for six months, which presumably price round 1k in curiosity. They knocked off an extra $500 on a whim (alleged manufacturing unit incentive). Basically the worth of my commerce in nullified my tax, title, charges. Sticker was round 40k if I recall appropriately.
I just about fell in love as quickly as I received in. Subwoofer, and excellent audio had been half of my bundle. Home windows tinted. Appears extra like a Lexus to me.
Backside line was that these vehicles promote themselves, whenever you object in your negotiations I do not assume they care an excessive amount of. The availability and demand chain favors the sellers (regardless of regardless of the media is making an attempt to inform us a couple of glut). For instance, if I had been to desire a Prius (2024 automobile of the yr), I’d have been on a ready record for a number of months. The 2025 Camrys had been sitting on the lot recent off the truck and going like hotcakes.

I purchased a Toyota Avalon in 2013, which was its first yr after a redesign. Got here with the unpleasantness of a wind wheeze above 65 mph, simple to be heard by youthful ears. By the following yr, Toyota found out it was due to the design of the aspect mirrors, and altered it. In fact, they by no means issued a recall for the primary yr model-owners.
Until it is a loopy deal, NEVER AGAIN.

I suppose a Camery is ok in case you simply want “automobile” parked in driveway. It is a very generic and unispired automibile. However dependable. These are Toyota’s roots going again 50 years. By comparability, Honda and Mazda constructed racing vehicles. It exhibits. In case you really care about driving.
Re: 2025 Toyota Camry
2025 Camry will not be a Lexus however is a really good primary (boglehead) automobile. After a variety of looking out my son was capable of finding one configured precisely the best way he wished it. No person is discounting it so far as we may discover and it takes some effort to seek out the choices you need with no seller or port junk added in. He paid just a little over 33K excluding taxes and registration. LE AWD with connivence and chilly climate bundle. The AWD advertisements just a little bit extra HP with the extra electrical motor. OK wanting alloy wheels and so they had been 16 by which we considered as a bonus. It would not have the bigger display which comes within the higher trim fashions however a variety of tech is included in all of the fashions. He has Android and apple automobile play, respectable stereo, digital key which
works in your cellphone so you may distant begin, lock unlock from anyplace and verify all of the fundamentals and extra. In case you neglect to lock it your cellphone will hunt you down and scold you. To date getting 45mpg, about 70/30 native/freeway set to regular mode. I suppose setting it to eco mode will get nearer to marketed.
Re: 2025 Toyota Camry
One function I discover helpful is that beneath 18 mph it makes use of the electrical motor solely. Due to this fact, while you’re driving in stop-and-go visitors, you’re hardly burning fuel in any respect. Maybe this type of idea is customary for hybrids, however that is my first expertise. As acknowledged, in eco mode I get a stable common of fifty each metropolis and freeway. I’ve hit 60 earlier than, and 40 is often instances once I needed to “gun it” for some motive. Everytime you flip off the engine, it provides you a report on how you probably did for that drive. I reside in FL, and the A/C is blasting.

I don’t assume anybody would ever name a Corolla a poor man’s “sports activities sedan”. First, I don’t even assume it’s obtainable within the US with a handbook transmission. (Until you’re referencing the GR, which is a completely totally different automobile) Second, if we’re speaking a couple of “sporty” driving character, every part in its class merely destroys it, particularly the Civic (which is obtainable with a MTM, btw) and the Mazda 3.

It also needs to be identified that the Camry was designed and engineered to be precisely what it’s, a cushty, dependable, economical folks hauler and that’s precisely what it does and does it effectively. It’s not meant to drive like a BMW.

Nor am I saying the Civic won’t be higher as a sports activities driver, however the level stays that both of them would destroy a Camry.
The Camry is just not snug, it’s a joke for consolation. It will probably haul folks between A and B reliably, so can each different automobile made by Toyota motor corp.
