Improved Performance and Better Handling
Dynamic Performance
Performance-wise the powerful 2.5L dual VVT-i engine and six speed sequential shift transmission combined with Anti-skid Braking System (ABS), Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) and Traction Control (TRC), offers you a package that not only performs well but helps to keep you in control. Electric Power Steering (EPS) and suspension tuned specifically for Australian road conditions as well as aerodynamic features, combine to deliver a dynamic ride and handling package.
Power
All-new Camry Altise delivers 13.7% more power than the previous model Camry, thanks to the new 2.5L dual VVT-i engine, while Camry Atara models have 15.4% more power due to dual exhausts. All models across the range, generate more torque than previous model Camry.
Camry's all-new 2.5L 2AR-FE dual VVT-i engine replaces the previous 2.4L single VVT-i engine. This highly efficient power pack includes advanced engine technologies that lower engine friction and deliver more power more efficiently, lowering fuel consumption at the same time#. More power with less fuel cost makes new Camry the perfect choice of sedan#.
All-new Camry Atara's dual exhaust isn't just a powerful style statement, it also improves performance.
Six Speed Automatic Transmission
All-new Camry's 2.5L engine is mated to a new six speed automatic transmission with sequential shift. This new transmission matches exactly the right gear ratio for the driving situation, helping you drive more smoothly. Camry Atara models make for an engaging drive when Sports mode is selected, with paddle shift technology delivering high response up shifts and throttle ?blipping? downshifts.
Electric Power Steering (EPS) is standard in new Camry. Based on feedback from the car's sensors, EPS varies the amount of steering power assistance so that you always have a good feel for the road in all driving situations. Tuned specifically for Australian driving conditions, the steering is light at low speed to make parking easier but becomes heavier for better feedback at speeds on the highway.
All-new Camry Atara models come with quick response paddle shift technology and Sports driving mode for faster gear changes and a more dynamic driving experience.
All-new Camry's aerodynamics are crucial to performance - the new design incorporates Formula1 inspired vortex generating aero fins on the side mirror mounts and tail lamps as well as on the underbody of the car which are designed to help stabilise performance by dictating airflow behaviour around the vehicle and helping the car hug the road.
Low Noise & Vibration
Camry's acoustic insulation technology means a quieter ride. By reducing engine noise and vibration, redesigning exterior features to reduce wind noise and improving the sealing and acoustic packaging inside, we have improved Camry's Noise and Vibration (NVH) profile, reducing unwanted sound and vibration, resulting in improved levels of comfort.
Camry's new 2.5L dual VVT-i engine generates more torque than the engine in the previous model. So if you ever need to pull a trailer or a small caravan (tow bar available as an extra on all models), Camry has the towing capacity.###
