The Toyota Camry has been given a cosmetic make-over – OverDrive (Oct. ’09) takes a sneak peek...
The changes to the Camry are purely cosmetic, like a redesigned bumper and fog lamps encased in chrome surrounds. The grille has not changed form but gets chrome lining along the slits for a stately appearance. Subtle changes are the LED blinkers on the rear-view mirrors and the redesigned 10-spoke alloys are elegant.
On the interior, the sunroof is a welcome addition as is the AUX input set in a compartment in the centre console. The air con features a ‘plasmacluster’ system that filters impurities and particulates matter ensuring clean air inside. It also has separate vents for the front and rear passengers.
The steering wheel that housed the air con and audio system controls now sports a display button for the multi-information system displaying real time info like instantaneous fuel efficiency, tank range and external temperature.
There are no changes to the powertrain, the Camry still sporting the creamy 2.4-litre engine developing 167PS of power at 6000rpm and 224Nm of torque at 4000rpm.
