2017 Camry XSE…The Classic!

The Toyota Camry has long been a staple in the full-sized sedan segment. That legacy carries on with their 2017 offering in the XSE trim level. The designers continue to move forward aesthetically with innovative features while still holding on to Toyota’s unique DNA.

Visually the Camry XSE is eye-catching. Designed to attract male and female consumers alike, the bold lines and sexy curves serves up an enticing palate. Bolder lines on the hood draw the eye up and over the aerodynamic roof dripping to the rear of the sedan. Segment appropriate chrome accents around the grille, window trim and badging are perfectly placed around the exterior of the Camry.

Honeycomb Grille

 

 

The boxier design of previous models is replaced with a sleeker and sexier persona. The trifold honeycomb grille is flanked by slanted lights and fierce lines.

All the subtle and bold upgrades keep the Camry on par with its competitors…both domestic and foreign. This 5-seater sedan has an impressive profile, whether on approach or departure. Aggressive by design and alluring by nature, the Camry XSE checks all the design cues.

Powered by a 2.5-liter 4-Cylinder engine, 6-Speed automatic transmission and its “game changer” aka the Vortex Generator reduces drag and as an added bonus offers greater fuel efficiency. Reaching a combined 27-MPG (24-City and 33-Hwy) rating, day trips or long journeys won’t break the bank. On those journeys or dipping, diving and dodging in traffic, re-calibrated springs paired with Sport-Tuned Suspension offer a broader and dynamic driving experience. Add a wide chassis, great handling, the option of paddle shifting, re-calibrated springs, shocks, and 178 ponies to boot…the Camry doesn’t disappoint on the road and is very secure in its stance as a sporty sedan.

As always, safety is just as important as the design and performance of any sedan. Continuing that commitment to the safety and the well-being of its consumers, Toyota’s Safety and Convenience Packages include the Star Safety System that features Enhanced Vehicle Stability Control, Traction Control, Anti-Lock Brakes, Electronic Brake Force Distribution, Brake Assist and Smart Stop Technology, LATCH (Lower Anchor & Tether for Children), Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, Back-up Camera (standard) Whiplash-Injury-Lessening Front Seats and Ten Airbags. The optional Advanced Technology Package includes Pre-Collision System, Lane Departure Alert, Dynamic Radar Cruise Control and Automatic High Beam.

To customize your Camry to your liking, optional packages add a lot of flare to your driving experience. The techie’s interest will be piqued with the Convenience Package paired with the Entune Premium JBL Audio.
