Drew Dorian, with CARandDRIVER, said...It might not be the most exciting choice, but the Toyota Camry Hybrid 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 lineupwhich just last year included a V-6 as well as both hybrid and nonhybrid four-cylindersto include only two hybrid options. Available in either front- or all-wheel-drive configurations, the new hybrid-only Camry produces as much as 232 horsepower. The interior has been revamped with more modern infotainment tech and styling inspired by the larger Crown sedan, but the Camry Hybrid remains a mid-size car intent on challenging competitors such as the Honda Accord and the Hyundai Sonata. The top-trim XSE all-wheel drive Camry is the least efficient version with EPA estimates of 44 city and 43 mpg highway. In our 75-mph highway fuel economy test route, the 2025 Camry XSE AWD matched its estimate with a result of 43 mpg. Inside the Camry Hybrids 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.
