What's New
The current Camry was introduced as a 2002 model and received a freshening for the 2005 model year that included styling changes, interior revisions, ABS was made standard on all models, and the availability of a five-speed automatic for four-cylinder sedans. The current car has only a year left before an expected redesigned 2007 model hits the market, so '06 changes are minor details.
Key Options
There are myriad options throughout the Camry and Solara range, but perhaps the most significant are the V-6 engines, which turn the midsize sedan into a near-luxury vehicle. Side-curtain airbags and stability control are the key available safety options. For Sybarites, the navigation package is an upscale feature available on higher trim levels of Camrys and Camry Solaras.
