2010 Toyota Camry
I drove the SE variation, which attempts to defy the Camry's useful, unexciting picture with a higher-output four-cylinder, firmer suspension as well as cosmetic attachments. In person, I was amazed by how little it considered the SE package to actually enhance the base Camry's boring disposition. Actually, I favor the SE's sporting good want to numerous other midsize sedans, which as a whole is primarily a dull sector. Although the SE manages with its appearance, it isn't really a total package due to the fact that there isn't much benefit in the fun-to-drive department.
The Camry schedule begins with the base version as well as supplies LE, SE, XLE and also Hybrid trim degrees.

Just what's Changed for 2010
The Camry has continued to be a best-seller even without a couple of essential competitive attributes, which have actually been added for 2010: a standard electronic stability system, six-speed automatic transmission and also optional USB input for regulating, as well as playing, iPods via the stereo. For an assessment of the USB assimilation, which I was not a follower of, see the video clip to the right. Compare the 2010 design to the 2009 variation here. Rivals like the 2010 Hyundai Sonata, 2010 Honda Accord, 2010 Mazda6 as well as 2010 Chevrolet Malibu have incorporated several of those key features for a couple of version years.
Base models have new front designing, including a revamped grille with chrome trim and also new, bigger fronts lights. The 2010's rhinoplasty is an improvement from the 2009's forgettable front styling. SE versions obtain a blacked-out grille and also smoked-headlight-housing therapy. The SE is good-looking than a normal Camry, thanks to enhancements like a reduced front spoiler, more hostile side sills, haze lights, 17-inch five-spoke wheels and double tailpipes with a black lower bumper.
2 brand-new four-cylinder engines are offered. For the very first time on a Camry, they team with a six-speed transmission in order to help boost gas economic climate; a six-speed guidebook is conventional. The SE utilizes a much more effective engine compared to base, LE and XLE models; it makes 179 horse power instead of 169 hp. The SE makes 21 even more horse power compared to the 2009 SE without injuring gas mileage. In fact, gas mileage has really enhanced 1 mpg in city as well as freeway ratings. I balanced 29 mpg during a 400-mile week of mainly freeway driving. That's not far from the automated's 32 mpg freeway rating. Both four-cylinders are rated with gas mileage of 22/32 mpg city/highway; the guidebook is ranked at 22/33 mpg.
SE, the "Flashy" Camry
The SE deserts the Camry's typical soft, inconspicuous flight quality with a sporting activity suspension, resulting in a flight that's remarkably stiff for a Camry. It's never teeth-jarring, but there's most definitely a tight feeling that can delay conventional Camry purchasers. When pressed right into edges, the Camry leans and understeers, not feeling like a confident entertainer. Distinct to the SE is a 179-hp variation of Toyota's 2.5-liter four-cylinder. When teamed with the new six-speed automatic transmission, this engine made the SE an alert plan; a 268-hp V-6 is optional. Gear modifications were smooth throughout acceleration with very little engine noise also during heavy velocity.
A flashy Camry is sort of like the requisite "bad-boy" participant of a boy band. No matter how aggressive the attempt, he's still in a boy band. Likewise, the SE cannot leave its Camry roots. Camry patriots may be drawn to the SE as a sportier option, however, for the differentiating enthusiast, the 2009 Mazda6 supplies a better-executed sport bundle.
Interior as well as Cargo
Here's where the Camry's comfort-focused roots are an advantage to the SE: The front as well as rear seats are incredibly comfortable. There readies back support with the eight-way power-adjustable seats, as well as soft seat paddings made my lengthy drives practical, despite having the SE's rigid suspension. For a sport version, the SE's front seats don't have aggressive side boosting to keep you from moving about, yet sculpting edges isn't the Camry's forte, so it's not a deal-breaker.
When you opt for the SE you shed the folding rear seat option; in its place is a facility pass-through. The folding seats as well as a half-foot of trunk space are compromised for a rear suspension brace that's planned to enhance handling. With my very little cargo-carrying demands the big trunk was suitable sufficient without the folding backseat. Those with more requiring freight demands, specifically longer things, must prevent the SE or XLE, which additionally doesn't include a folding backseat.
Functions as well as Pricing
For $22,165, the SE consists of all of the suspension, engine and outside functions-- minus the looter, a $200 option. As tested, our SE listed at $27,725, not including the $750 location charge. Options on our test auto consisted of transmission, navigation system with backup video camera, USB input, Bluetooth, JBL stereo, moonroof and wise crucial system with push-button start.
A base Camry starts at $19,395, so the SE package is a cheap way to cheer it up. A base Mazda6 embodies a flashy nature, however, as well as starts at $18,450.
Safety and security
The 2010 Camry gained Excellent ratings-- the very best rating-- in frontal and side accident tests by the Insurance Institute for Freeway Safety and security; it racked up Low in back security, which is why the Camry doesn't capture the IIHS' Leading Safety Pick honor. The 2009 Honda Accord and also 2010 Ford Combination gain the classification.
For a total list of the Camry's safety functions, see here.
Integrity
The Camry has actually shown subsiding reliability in recent model years with average general rankings by Consumer Records as well as a short spell below par for a certain drivetrain. Presently, there typically aren't any type of forecasts for the 2010.
Noteworthy in this segment is the 2010 Ford Blend's predicted top dependability score for front-wheel-drive 4- and also six-cylinder versions. The Honda Accord's scores are above standard for 4- as well as six-cylinder models, however they're not as high as the Blend's.
Camry on the market
Buyers should drive both the Camry SE as well as other Camry trims to see if the sport-tuned suspension is as well strong for daily commutes. There are a great deal of good midsize cars out there. While the 2010 Camry steps up its game, customers now have a lot more solid choices compared to ever.
In recent years, the competition has caught up with the Camry while its integrity has actually slid a little bit, making the Camry more of a typical selection than a class-leading midsize car.
