XV80 Toyota Camry revealed

[Syndrome]

Very disappointed as would be keen for an AWD model with V6 engine to replace the Falcon.

No V6
And no fuel only powertrain. 100% hybrid.

Not to mention hideously ugly.

Just a bit of Model 3 in the passenger compartment form!

Look at that massive front lower grille - would be perfect for a huge intercooler.

Too bad she's naturally aspirated 4 cylinder junk,

Current model hybrid Camry and Corolla are a joke, drives like a park bench.

Ugly as sin, a big step backwards.

Funny I dont mind it and the Prius is not half bad either...

Wait until you see it in person I reckon before passing off judgement, reminds me of the FGX teaser photos and that super ugly direct behind shot of the tail lights, it looked ****ing woeful in the photo and it was probably done on purpose to make it look horrid, but the car in the flesh looks mint.

Kinda like instagram influencers, tricks with angles, lighting and all sorts of bull****, then when you see them in person you realise they got more chins than the Chinese phone book

Am I the only person wondering why they didnt just share the Mirai bodyshell/platform? It looks way better than the Camry.

I was flicking through instagram reels yesterday and came across someone reviewing the new model in video, it looked markedly better than the press photos.

This happens often.

I remember BA looking weird in press photos.

A shot of a North American version is hardly flattering, i dunno if its me. But American variants of different cars always look rubbish (in pics and real). Looks like an American model with the stupid orange positioning lights.

I haven't driven the current Camry, rather the previous Australian-made model in povo petrol-only spec. I did 1200 km in one, covering a huge variety of roads, from the deadly boring Hume, through the Snowy Mountains Highway and across to the NSW South Coast.

As you would expect, the ride comfort was fine on the highway, but would turn nice and roly-poly in the turns, and you could actually feel the tyres folding under.

But the most egregious part of the car was the terrible, and I mean terrible!, seats. Rock hard, unsupportive and numb-bum inducing within 30 min. So yes, the "park bench" analogy certainly played out there.

One Toyota I could happily be on a 3 year to indefinite waiting list for...
