2025 Camry

Believe it or not, there is still a mid-sized sedan segment on the market, even though the SUV and Crossover SUVs seem to get the lion’s share of sales. The mid-sized sedan segment is on track to sell almost one million units this year. Leading the sales in this market is the 2025 Toyota Camry. If you live in or around Birmingham, Trussville, or Hoover, you can find the Camry at Serra Toyota.

Why is the Toyota Camry so Popular?

Some facts to know about the new Camry include the fact that they are only sold as hybrids with an I-4 engine and you can get front wheel drive or an all-wheel drive system as the most potent and practical option. Camry gets 44 MPG in the city and 50 MPG on the Highway. Just to name a few things.

What Other Sedans are its Competitors?

  • Honda Accord: Large sedan segment, with an impressive hybrid system, but it lacks an all-wheel drive option. It also gets 29 MPG city and 44 MPG Highway with Intercooled Turbo regular unleaded engine.
  • Hyundai Sonata: High-Tech look backed up by good driver assistant features but only gets 23 MPG city. This model also gets 51 MPG highway though not a hybrid. The Sonata is also in the large car segment.
  • Nissan Altima: Refined and comfortable with great safety tech. It gets 25 MPG city and 39 MPG highway, which doesn’t compare the exceptional mileage for the Camry. Though safety is similar, the Camry received five stars in more tests from the NHTSA.
  • Nissan Subaru Legacy: This popular sedan offers all-wheel drive as standard but doesn’t get the gas mileage of the Camry with the hybrid powertrain. Modern styling is bolder on the Camry with a sportier vibe.
  • Toyota Crown: Surprisingly, one of the competitors for the Toyota Camry is a model in its lineup with the Toyota Crown.
