For the 2018 model year, Toyota has debuted a completely new Camry. The angular front fascia gives it an aggressive new appearance, and practically every aspect of the midsize sedan has gone through a major update. These changes have made the car more comfortable and modern, and they also make it even more fun to drive.

The Powered-Up Engines

The base engine of the 2018 Camry is still a 2.5-liter I-4 engine, but while the 2017 model managed 178 horsepower, the updated design gets 203 horsepower while still getting 39 highway mpg. It also keeps the V-6 3.5-liter upgrade, but while the old model could only get 268 horsepower, the new V-6 has 301 ponies under the hood.

The New Transmission

Both engines come with a new eight-speed automatic transmission that gives the 2018 Camry a smooth, efficient acceleration. This transmission also comes standard with a drive mode selector with Sport and ECO options, plus some models give you easy manual control with a pair of paddle shifters.

The New Platform

Toyota builds its new 2018 Camry on the TNGA platform, an adaptable design that lets the company emphasize different priorities depending on the model. For the Camry, that means less weight, better performance, and a smooth ride.

The new Camry design improves on the old model in just about every way, making it one of the best options you could buy this year if you’re looking for a new midsize sedan. Test drive one today to find out what you’re missing.
