All Camry models for 2021 get an added dose of tech and luxury with a new floating multimedia screen in 7-inch or 9-inch sizes, plus a new herringbone seat pattern on the XLE grade. Capping off the long list of enhancements, restyled front ends lend greater distinction among Camry grades. This expansion for 2021 follows a year in which Camry added an all-wheel-drive option and its first-ever TRD performance model.

All told, the 2021 Camry offers 20 different choices in the midsize sedan segment today. Those choices include:

• Three V6 grades – XLE, XSE and TRD
• Seven four-cylinder FWD grades – Base, LE, LE Upgrade, XLE, SE, SE Upgrade and XSE.
• Six four-cylinder AWD grades- LE, XLE, SE, SE Upgrade, XSE and Nightshade Edition.
• Four hybrid grades – LE, SE Upgrade, XLE and XSE (new)

The wide array of choices plus Camry’s alluring, coupe-inspired design and renowned Toyota quality and value are reasons why Camry maintains leadership in the mid-size sedan category. Camry holds its status as one of the longest-running nameplates in the auto industry.

Bold New Look Up Front
A new look up front distinguishes the comfort-oriented LE and XLE grades from the sport-oriented SE and XSE for 2021. A new front fascia for the Camry LE and XLE grades shows a more defined lower intake area. The gas version of the LE grade also debuts a new 17-inch alloy wheel design, while the XLE features a redesigned 18-inch alloy wheel. The SE and XSE grades show off a bolder redesigned lower fascia shape featuring a honeycomb style grille and side vent inserts, plus new side vent accents.

Accentuating the revised design, the 2021 Camry augments its exterior paint palette with new Blueprint replacing Blue Streak Metallic and a new, exclusive colour for the Camry TRD, Ice Edge with a two-tone Midnight Black Metallic roof. The XSE grades will now exclusively offer the two-tone with Wind Chill Pearl or Celestial Silver Metallic with a Midnight Black Metallic roof combination.

The performance-tuned Camry TRD, which debuted for 2020, keeps its exclusive, aero-enhanced design. The 2021 Camry TRD now comes standard with Blind Spot Monitor and Rear Cross Traffic Alert, plus heated exterior mirrors.

Toyota Safety Sense 2.5+
Toyota made Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) standard across many of its model lineup for 2017, five years ahead of the voluntary commitment by many OEMs with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to make it standard on virtually all light vehicles. For 2021, the Camry is the first Toyota model to include TSS 2.5+, the next phase in Toyota’s evolution of safety systems. A number of functions that are part of the Toyota Safety Sense have been enhanced.

Camry All-Wheel Drive is Smarter All-Wheel Drive
The all-wheel-drive option that Camry debuted for 2020 is perfect for Canadian winters and is projected to account for about 36 per cent of Camry’s 2021 sales. The Toyota-developed Dynamic Torque Control AWD system is available as a standalone option for the four-cylinder LE, XLE, SE, SE Upgrade, Nightshade and XSE grades. Camry AWD uses the high-efficiency 2.5-litre Dynamic Force four-cylinder engine teamed with an eight-speed Direct-Shift automatic transmission.

Camry TRD: Track-Tuned, Road-Refined

The Camry TRD is equipped exclusively with a direct-injected, 301-horsepower DOHC 3.5-litre V6 teamed with the Direct-Shift eight-speed automatic transmission featuring sport mode and paddle shifters. A specially-tuned TRD cat-back dual exhaust system conveys a throatier idle and acceleration tone.
