EV Channels Review

This video provides a comprehensive POV test drive of the 2025 Toyota Camry XSE AWD, highlighting its transition to an exclusively hybrid powertrain. The reviewer details the new XV80 generation's ride comfort improvements, NVH reduction, and enhanced driving dynamics, particularly noting the revised dampers and tuning. The powertrain, featuring a 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine paired with electric motors for a combined 232 horsepower and e-CVT, is praised for its efficiency, achieving a remarkable 44 MPG. While the V6 is gone, the hybrid system delivers adequate performance, including a 0-60 mph acceleration test. The reviewer covers exterior and interior features, backseat space, and trunk capacity. The XSE AWD model as tested is priced at $44,569. Overall, the 2025 Camry appears to be a significant step forward in refinement and efficiency, addressing previous criticisms while maintaining its status as a practical midsize sedan.
