2025 Toyota Camry Hybrid Photos, engines & full specs

Toyota introduced the ninth generation of its best-selling mid-size sedan Camry for the U.S. market in late 2023 for the 2025 model year and made it available as a hybrid-exclusive affair.

The Camry was not just one of the best-selling Toyota models, but in 2023, that model still had the lead in the mid-size sedan segment in the U.S. But that didn’t make the Japanese automaker slow down the pace, and despite offering it with a refreshed 2024 model year starting with the summer of 2023, it introduced a new generation in the fall. Even if it was based on the same GA-K platform as its predecessor, the car was new from the ground up. Still, the exterior design improvements looked more like a facelifted version than a new generation.

With its sleek, aerodynamic look, the Camry was more appealing to younger customers. It was no longer the vehicle of choice for ride-sharing or retired drivers. At the front, it sported a grille with a hexagonal pattern for the SE and XSE grades, while the LE and XLE came with a broad one adorned by chromed horizontal slats. All versions came with the same LED headlights and C-shaped daytime running lights, which Toyota called “hammerhead.”

From its profile, depending on the grade, the ninth generation of the Camry featured 18” or 19” alloy wheels. The sporty versions also sported distinctive side sills and a slim spoiler on the trunk lid. In addition, these versions, namely the SE and the XSE, got a redesigned rear bumper that incorporated a diffuser on its lower side. Both the XLE and the XSE were available with black tops and panoramic glass roofs, where the front panel could open and slide rearward. Still, the car’s overall shape was not that different than on the previous, eight-generation Camry.

Inside, the automaker worked hard to create a new environment for its customers. The LE and XLE versions featured fabric or Microfiber upholstery, with many padded areas, including on the dashboard. At the same time, the sports versions were available with bucket seats at the front and high-bolstered areas that kept their occupants in place during high-speed cornering. The base versions featured an 8” touchscreen atop the center stack, while the XLE and the XLE grades came with 12.3” touch-capable displays. Fronting the driver was a new digital instrument panel offered across the range.

But the most significant upgrade was found under the car’s skin. Unlike its predecessor, which was available with a V6, the 2025 Camry came with a 2.5-litre inline-four and an electric motor for the front wheels. For vehicles fitted with an intelligent all-wheel drive system, Toyota added a second motor that put the rear wheels into motion.
