Further strengthening the appeal of one of the Middle East’s best-loved vehicles, Toyota has launched the latest version of the Camry in the region.
"Featuring an imposing yet elegant silhouette and spacious, high-quality interior, the new Camry combines engaging performance with thoughtful technology to help drivers and passengers get the most out of every journey," according to a press statement issued in Doha by Abdullah Abdulghani & Bros Co (AAB), the sole distributor for Toyota vehicles in Qatar.
The new model introduces a level of refinement that exceeds expectations, further cementing the Camry’s reputation as a class-leading vehicle that offers an unparalleled driving experience, the statement notes.
“We are excited to bring drivers in the Middle East a refreshed version of the Toyota Camry, a vehicle they already know and love,” said Kei Fujita, chief representative, Middle East and Central Asia Representative Office, Toyota Motor Corporation.
The new Camry provides a comfortable and stable ride with superior handling characteristics thanks to the Toyota New Global Architecture (TNGA), which retains all of "Toyota’s traditional values of superlative build quality and safety while injecting a fun driving experience".
The latest evolution of the Camry’s styling gives the vehicle a bold look that engages the senses more strongly than ever. Also, the new Camry’s interior melds functionality, elegant styling and impeccable craftsmanship. These include a panoramic moonroof, a floating 7-inch or 9-inch multimedia touchscreen that comes integrated with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a wireless charging system for smartphones, dual-zone automatic air-conditioning, a six-speaker sound system, multi-adjustable power front seats, and 60/40 split and reclining rear seats.
The new Camry is available with a choice of three powertrain options: a 2.5-litre four-cylinder Dynamic Force engine that produces 204hp and 243nm of torque and is paired with an eight-speed Direct-Shift automatic transmission; a 3.5-litre V6 engine with D-4S fuel injection system that produces 298hp and 356nm of torque and is mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission; and an electrified hybrid system. The combined power of the two power sources is 214hp.
The hybrid-electric vehicle (HEV) model can be driven entirely by electrical power with zero-fuel consumption and carbon
emissions, or with a combination of the petrol engine and two electric motors depending on the vehicle speed and customer’s driving behaviour, the statement adds.
The batteries in the hybrid electric drivetrain are automatically charged by either the petrol engine or when braking and decelerating, eliminating the need to plug in a power cord. The new Camry HEV does not require special fuel, yet drives like any conventional vehicle.
The vehicle’s advanced safety system is complemented by Toyota Safety Sense, an advanced safety technology package that includes Pre-Collision System, Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, Lane Departure Alert, Lane Tracing Assist and Automatic High Beam. In addition, the vehicle features an array of safety features to protect its occupants, such as six SRS airbags, Vehicle Stability Control, Traction Control, Anti-lock Braking System, Electronic Brake Force Distribution, Brake Assist, Hill-start Assist Control and a rear-view camera, among others.
The new Toyota Camry comes in 11 distinctive exterior colours. In addition, it can be fitted with 17-inch or 18-inch alloy wheels that feature two intricate designs.
