Bold New Design Language
Cues from upmarket Lexus models seen on the new Camry. Despite being a new-gen model, it shares the same TNGA-K underpinnings and suspension setup as its predecessor, although Toyota claims there are improvements in almost every area.

Key Design Elements:
Front Fascia:
- Sharp “Hammerhead” nose design
- Slim LED headlights with integrated DRLs
- Angular front bumper with diamond pattern grille
- Prominent Toyota logo positioning
Side Profile:

- 18-inch machine-finished alloy wheels

- Refined rear bumper with subtle styling cues

Hybrid Performance and Fuel Efficiency {#performance}
Advanced Hybrid Powertrain Analysis
Toyota claims the upgraded hybrid powertrain not only produces more power but is also more frugal than the outgoing Camry. The 2.5-litre four-cylinder Atkinson cycle petrol engine now makes 187hp, 9hp more, at 6,000rpm, but the torque figure is the same 221Nm. When paired with a 136hp, 208Nm electric motor, its total output is 230hp; 12hp more than its predecessor.
Real-World Performance Metrics
Acceleration and Speed:
- 0-100 kmph: 7.2 seconds
- Top Speed: 180 kmph (electronically limited)
- Quarter-mile: Approximately 15.5 seconds
- Overtaking performance: Strong due to instant electric torque
Driving Modes and Behavior:
- Eco Mode: Maximizes battery usage, gentler acceleration
- Normal Mode: Balanced performance and efficiency
- Sport Mode: Enhanced throttle response, sportier feel
Exceptional Fuel Efficiency
Official vs Real-World Mileage:
Driving Condition | Expected Mileage |
---|---|
ARAI Certified | 25.49 kmpl |
City Driving | 18-20 kmpl |
Highway Cruising | 22-24 kmpl |
Mixed Conditions | 20-22 kmpl |
It should be noted that how one drives greatly affects the Camry’s fuel-efficiency figure. In the few hours we spent with it, which included more highway than urban driving, the Camry delivered almost 20kpl, which is impressive for a 1.6-tonne car.
Suspension and Ride Quality
Suspension Setup:
- Front: MacPherson strut with anti-roll bar
