Toyota has confirmed the ninth-generation Camry will debut on November 15 at 2:00pm AEDT, ahead of the Los Angeles auto show next week.

The teaser reveals an 'AWD' and 'HEV' badge, confirming the Camry will offer electronic all-wheel-drive with a hybrid powertrain – like a RAV4, Kluger or Crown – for the first time.

While the current-generation Camry is available with all-wheel drive from its non-hybrid 2.5-litre petrol in North America, it has been front-drive only in Australia since the nameplate launched in 1983.

Our earlier story, below, continues unchanged.

October 20: 2025 Toyota Camry teased

The 2025 Toyota Camry sedan has been teased ahead of an expected debut next month.

While the new teaser image released by Toyota in North America, captioned ‘A new dawn is coming’, doesn’t explicitly confirm a new Camry, the similarities are clear.

The ninth-generation Camry is expected to be an evolution of the current model that debuted in 2017, not a ground-up overhaul, with an updated design from existing TNGA-K underpinnings.

It is tipped to be unveiled at the 2023 Los Angeles Auto Show in late November or as a near-production sports concept at the SEMA show in Las Vegas earlier in the month.

Under the bonnet, the Camry could transition to a hybrid-only offering in Australia, while the 3.5-litre V6 still available in North America is likely to make way for the more efficient 2.4-litre turbo-four from the Kluger.

The teaser confirms an updated C-shaped daytime running light signature similar to the new C-HR, Prius and Crown Sport and a beefier lower bumper that could preview a hotted-up GR Sport variant.

A full-fat GR Camry is less likely, but a GR Sport (or TRD in the USA) could be fitted with the turbo-hybrid powertrain from the Crown and Lexus RX, producing around 270kW and 550Nm with all-wheel-drive.

In mid-2022, a Toyota executive said to “stay tuned” regarding a performance sedan, but the brand has confirmed GR-branded products will not be electrified – for now.

A plug-in hybrid ‘Camry Prime’ is also possible with components from the RAV4 Prime mid-size SUV, including a 2.5-litre petrol engine and high-output electric motors.

Inside, expect influence from the C-HR, bZ4X and Crown with a larger, new infotainment system, a fully digital instrument cluster, and a smartphone-based digital key.

Earlier this week, Toyota Australia confirmed it has paused orders for the Camry Hybrid due to extended wait times, leaving the base Ascent petrol as the sole option to purchase locally.

And when orders reopen, it could be for the new Camry teased here – with price hikes likely.

The 2025 Toyota Camry is expected to arrive in the United States early next year, with a local arrival potentially occurring later in the year.

Toyota announced earlier this year that the Camry would be discontinued in its Japanese home market, but production will continue for export markets, including Australia.
