Toyota has been successfully making hybrid cars for longer than anyone else, which is no surprise that the car maker is focusing its efforts on them more than its own EVs. I can’t deny that Toyota’s first EV left me wanting more to be desired, but the Toyota Camry continues to prove that car shoppers should at the very least consider hybrids if EVs are out of reach.
In my week’s worth of driving the 2025 Toyota Camry XSE AWD, it shows how much has changed since the early days of the Prius and how hybrid power is being embraced by more vehicles in its lineup. Also, it’s hard to overlook the Camry LE has a base MSRP of $28,700. That’s a price EVs can only dream about in the current market.
