Design and Exterior Styling Revolution {#design}

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. The design is definitely all-new though – it sports the Japanese brand’s new ‘Hammerhead’ styling, which gives the sedan a more pointed nose that’s accentuated by the slim LED headlights and Daytime Running Lamps.

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:

  • Flowing shoulder line from hood to boot
  • 18-inch machine-finished alloy wheels
  • Sleek roofline with aerodynamic efficiency
  • Power-adjustable ORVMs with LED indicators

Rear Design:

  • Integrated rear spoiler (Sprint Edition)
  • Clean bootlid with “Camry” and “eHEV” badging
  • 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
  • Rear: Multi-link independent suspension
  • Tuning: India-specific softer setup for comfort
  • Tire Size: 235/45 R18 on all variants
