2025 TOYOTA CAMRY XLE HYBRID: FULL CANADIAN WINTER REVIEW

EV Channels Review

The 2025 Toyota Camry XLE Hybrid AWD is thoroughly reviewed in Canadian winter conditions, highlighting its performance and features. The reviewer praises the vehicle's comfortable ride, impressive power output from the hybrid system (232 hp), and excellent handling, noting minimal body roll even on snowy and icy surfaces. The all-wheel-drive system and traction control are commended for their effectiveness in challenging winter conditions. The cabin's rapid warm-up time is also a significant plus for cold climates. However, the infotainment system is a notable drawback, with the reviewer criticizing the lack of a physical or easily accessible home button to switch between wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay and the native system, requiring a manual lookup in the Toyota app. The engine's acoustic appeal is also mentioned as a minor negative. Despite these points, the Camry XLE Hybrid is positioned as a strong contender, particularly for its AWD capability in the hybrid sedan segment, outperforming competitors like the Honda Accord in this regard.
