Toyota has taken the wraps off the 9th-generation Camry. The popular sedan will only be available with a hybrid powertrain in either front-wheel or all-wheel drive configurations.<\/p>\n
The Toyota Camry is powered by a 2.5-litre 4-cylinder petrol hybrid paired with an electronically controlled continuously variable transmission (eCVT). The front-wheel drive version gets two electric motors with a combined output of 222 BHP. The all-wheel drive version gets an additional motor-generator on the rear axle, bumping the overall output to 229 BHP.<\/span><\/p>\n The new Camry is based on the same TNGA-K platform as the outgoing model but features a revised suspension setup. Toyota claims that the changes have made the car more responsive and agile.<\/span><\/p>\n Toyota has also made significant changes to the Camry\u2019s exterior design. While the massive trapezoidal grille has been retained, the nose section has been redesigned and now features sleek U-shaped LED signature lights.<\/span><\/p>\n Inside, the Camry gets an 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system and a 7.0-inch digital instrument cluster, while higher variants get 12.3-inch displays as well as a 10-inch head-up display. Other features include wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, wireless charging, and a 9-speaker JBL audio system.<\/span><\/p>\n The Camry is also equipped with Toyota Safety Sense 3.0, which includes safety features like adaptive cruise control, lane-departure assist, road sign assist, automatic high beams, blind-spot monitoring, pedestrian detection and rear cross-traffic alert. Traffic jam assist, front cross-traffic alert, lane-change assist, panoramic view monitor, and front and rear parking assist with automatic braking are available as part of an optional package on higher trims.<\/span><\/p>\n The 9th-gen Toyota Camry will reach showrooms in the United States in 2024.<\/span><\/p>\n
