UPDATE 11/9/23: Toyota said today that the next Camry will make its public debut on November 14. The business also unveiled a second teaser image, this one featuring a close-up of the trunklid of the family sedan, in conjunction with the announcement. The 2025 Toyota Camry’s hybrid drivetrain and all-wheel drive are also confirmed by that photograph.
After the carmaker unveiled a teaser image, it is anticipated that a new Toyota Camry would make its public debut shortly. The image is obscured, but what’s visible is the front end of a car that appears to be a sedan based on the presence of rear headrests, as opposed to another crossover.
Future-Gen Camry
Additional evidence points to the next-generation Camry being the vehicle in concern. Our spy photographer captured a well camouflaged prototype Toyota vehicle during testing earlier this year. Although nothing is official yet, we anticipate that the upcoming ninth-generation Camry will resemble the current model in terms of dimensions while riding on the TNGA-K platform developed by the business and featuring improved powertrains.
Although we can’t quite make out the 2025 Camry’s appearance from either today’s teaser image or our spy photographs, we can make out a large Toyota badge on the nose, just as on the Toyota Supra, and the unique lighting signature is reminiscent of the Toyota Prius.
What we believed to be the new Camry was mistakenly unveiled in a video that was uploaded to Toyota’s YouTube channel last month. The red vehicle included facial elements similar to the Toyota Crown and Prius, as well as side detailing evocative of other recent Toyota vehicles. A Toyota representative informed Car and Driver that the rendering was accidentally used and was not a sneak peek at the next Camry. The video has already been removed.
More Powerful Hybrid Camry?
It is highly likely that a new range of powertrain options will be available for the upcoming Toyota Camry generation. Undoubtedly, a hybrid system will be one of those, although Toyota now offers a good number of options. Will the Crown be powered by its 236 horsepower all-wheel-drive system or by the powerful 265 horsepower hybrid turbo four-cylinder engine found in the Toyota Highlander? Although the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine of the present Camry may continue to be available on lower model levels, the 3.5-liter V-6 engine is not expected to be offered.
