What's your pick: SE or XSE? Thanks for watching and subscribing! Jeff

Instead of going over all the same stuff, i.e. hybrid, hp ratings I would rather have the video just mention the differences not the same trunk space, etc.

SE you get the best bang for your buck with a few added features . the XSE is way overpriced for a Toyota you're better off getting a Lexus .

To answer your question Jeff. I have the XSE in Supersonic Red without the black roof and the side mirrors are body colored.

I have purchased a 2025 Camry XSE fully loaded and will be delivered the end of July. I have owned Toyota's since 1970, in my garage sit a 2015 Sequoia and a 2018 Tundra.The downsizing is not a problem after driving the Camry.

Just bought the XSE and love it. I only got it as a work car, and knew nothing about them. Thing is nice!

[timvibes]

I'd personally get the LE. Softer suspension, cheaper, better mpg. Overall, all trims are excellent.

[Irishmanbikes]

I like the XSE with the two tone paint and gloss black and metallic wheels. I am not a fan of a panoramic moon roof, but I do really like the normal look of a functional moon roof. I would like to see the XSE in white with a black roof.

Nobody wins with a $600 - $700 monthly car payment note.

Can someone explain to me why the sunroof opens all the way on the SE but only half way on the XSE?

[dru]

I picked the SE . I am torn between red or white color. Help to decide would be appreciated..

[davidmarc]

I like the SE ‘s black wheels and the grille. The XSE’s grille looks better in a darker colored car IMO. Also it has more features I want…I went with the XSE in Underground and a red interior. Owned several Camrys but went to a RAV4 SE Hybrid when no Camrys were available. After driving the SE and XSE Camry, I know I made the right choice

[djs]

Are you sure the one is a se, when I build an se on the Toyota site the grill is black and not body colored

[nickeckemoff]

Something not mentioned is the XSE rear side headrests are adjustable up and down or can be removed. This is huge to allow front facing car seats to fit appropriately. Also the XSE has laminated glass, significantly quieter interior, and JBL sound system (decent B tier versus the stock being D...really bad...toyotas have the among the worst stock sound systems). With XSE, it will probably have more packages/options making the price around 40k MSRP and not as common to find at dealers (especially with premium package), but SEs are plentiful for around for 33k....significant cost savings and considering depreciation, SE is definitely the smart buy if you can live with the downsides. You're almost forced into the huge panoramic sunroof with XSE, which is a downside because it's going to have problems eventually and cuts into headroom.

My 2 cents is I like SE's matte plastic front and rear pieces opposed to all the gloss black or body color stuff. The headlights on the XSE are much better lightening up the road, but the XE are fine.

I personally went with XSE...rear headrests and sound systems were deal killers for SE, otherwise I'd go that.

[WaddleMan]

I have the XSE but do not have the premium package but I do have the Panoramic Roof. I’d say the SE is the better value but if you are adding on packages on the SE, now you are in XSE territory then I’d say the better value is going XSE

[jdm]

Those regional add on charges are deal killers for me. No way would I pay for that. Its just frivolous profit center add ons.

[clarawilliams]

I brought the xse and I love it i get 49 miles to gallon. Drives really well
