      2025 Toyota Camry LE Hybrid Review - All-Hybrid, All-CVT, Real-World 45-51 MPG Tested, and What You Give Up for Fuel Economy

      By oldshurst442 · Posted

      True. But isnt there an entity that needs to actually and officially put a stamp of approval on them? Doesnt that also take time?  If safety of the people takes precedence over money...  Ha ha ha!!!   Im sure, like you said, nothing major will be of issue and minimal changes, if any required.
