In Advance of its 2018 Successor, 2017 Toyota Camry Still a Showcase of Style

2018 Toyota Camry was on prospective display at the 44th Annual Minneapolis and St. Paul Twin Cities Auto Show March 11 through the 19, and her sleek, aggressive new styling all but promises performance, with driver-centered controls that put you at the center of the action on the road with precision handling and standard intelligent safety, as well as an expansive interior to keep you riding in comfort. And since the refresh has 2017 Toyota Camry as a model, it’s sure to evince the commitment to quality spoken by the Toyota name.

In fact, Camry has come a long, storied and impressive way to 2017, and as concerns midsize 5-seater sedans, 2017 Toyota Camry, in each of its LE, XLE, SE and XSE trims, follows through on a range of promises in the here and now. Expert reviewers at Kelley Blue Book give is a stellar 9 out of 10 rating for “reliability, efficiency, safety, comfort and easy driving manners” as well as “youthful style,” and there’s plenty to evince why.

Not only is 2017 Camry classified as an Ultra Low Emission Vehicle II (ULEV-II) to near the apex of eco-friendliness, but its 2.5-Liter 4-Cylinder DOHC 16-Valve Dual VVT-i engine showcases a respectable base 178 horsepower and 170 pound-feet of torque, and with mileage to compete, up to 24 mpg city/33 mpg highway/27 mpg combined. Couple it with Camry’s 6-speed electronically controlled automatic overdrive transmission, offering both intelligence (ECT-i) and a smooth-operating sequential shift mode, and gear changes are a breeze. 2017 Camry SE even adds paddle shifters, so you can seamlessly slide into a sportier gear with hands nigh ten-and-two. And to speak of sporty, Camry’s lively road feel comes thanks to a MacPherson strut front and dual-link independent strut rear suspension with gas-filled shock absorbers and stabilizer bar, as well as electric power-assisted rack-and-pinion steering and cruise control. The SE and XSE trims go the extra mile here, offering sport-tuned shock absorbers and springs, strut tower and trunk-mounted braces, for a performance feel.

2017 Camry brings a few looks to turn heads to boot. The sedan’s sharp exterior design lines define Camry across trims, but LE and XLE speed into the lead with striking projector-beam halogen headlights to cut through while cutting a figure, and their auto on/off feature speaks of convenient set-and-forget possibilities during ambient changes. SE and XSE head in the sport direction, each adding black sport trim bezels and a flashy piano-black sport mesh lower front grille to speak to one’s inner speedster. And the sedan’s interior, first making us aware of elegant wood-grain-style interior trim in LE and XLE and a sheen of silver trim in SE and XSE, quickly gives over to a spacious feeling, with a 102.7 cubic feet cabin, excluding its optional moonroof (101.3 cubic feet with moonroof), as well as a 15.4-cubic-foot cargo volume made possible by folding Camry’s 60/40 split rear seat. It all comes together to make a model of comfort within interior temp regulation-friendly High Solar Energy-Absorbing (HSEA) glass.

Entertaining on the go? Entune Audio in LE and SE provide audio and video for the long haul, with visual clarity to impress and sound reproduction to match, as well as support for navigation, electronic device and peripheral connectivity, and Entune Audio Plus in XLE and XSEtruly lay on thickly the entertainment options, with SiriusXM and HD Radio compatibility. Nevertheless, each trim has perks designed to appeal to a wide range within the sedan-connoisseur segment, from leather-trim multi-stage heated front seats and steering wheel in 2017 Camry <>XLE to sport fabric SofTex®-trimmed front seats standard in SE, complete with a leather-trimmed tilt/telescopic 3-spoke sport steering wheel and more.
