The All New Camry

The Toyota Camry is all new for 2018. The lower, sleeker, and technologically advanced Camry doesn’t come without a price though. In order to pull off a complete redesign of the Camry as well as other vehicles in its lineup, Toyota will be employing its largest manufacturing plant investment in American history. Toyota will be spending $1.3 billion on upgrades to its core plant in Georgetown, Kentucky. A majority of the investment is in fact geared for the new Camry, and the remainder will be used to update equipment that can evolve production as a whole.

The exterior design of past Camrys has mostly been endearingly coined as ‘vanilla’ or less endearingly described as flat out bland. It may not have been the most exciting design produced by Toyota, but it still retained strong sales due to the cars significant efficiency and value. Alas, the compromise between style and adeptness is coming to a close as even the most practical vehicles are getting more and more striking and aesthetic. The Camry has been bestowed an expressive fascia with a prominent grille that’s sure to be noticed, as well as a finely detailed cabin with much improved comfort and usability.

The new dashboard evolves from a standard ‘T’ shape into more of a sweeping design inspired by the coziness and warmth of home furnishings. Former monotone themes have been upgraded into mixed hues and tones that offer more visual depth and contrast. The ergonomics of the console have also been improved. The 2018 Camry will be one of the first midsized sedans to feature a heads up display- as well as two other interlinked next-generation display screens with varying functions.

Also new for the Camry is the 3.5 L V6 paired to the new eight speed transmission- expected to get best in class fuel economy and better power and torque than the last generation. All new Camrys will additionally receive Toyotas Safety Sense suite that includes pre-collision warning, pedestrian detection, lane departure warning, and automatic high beams. The Camry retains adaptive cruise control and the backup camera.

Toyota put the cards down this year with a whopping investment and an infallible new ringer in the lineup.  Interested in a test drive? Visit our site here to set it up or receive additional information/updates on the Toyotas brand new Camry.
