The 2012 Toyota Camry: What Consumers Can Expect

The debut of the new 2012 Toyota Camry and Camry Hybrid is just around the corner, and given the restrained nature of the unveiling, conversations are focused on what consumers can expect.

As is usually the case when Toyota introduces a new model, the 2012 Camry won’t be dramatically changed from the car it replaces. With the recent addition of a new 4-cylinder engine and 6-speed transmission, the 2012 Camry will likely have revised styling and an altered interior.

The new Camry will also get Entune, a collection of popular mobile applications and data services integrated with select Toyota vehicles. Entune includes three years of complimentary access to apps and services delivered via most smartphones and some feature phones. Once the phone is connected to the vehicle using Bluetooth wireless technology or a USB cable, Entune’s features are operated using the vehicle’s controls or, for some services, by voice recognition. Entune is scheduled to have mobile apps for Bing, iHeartRadio, MovieTickets.com, OpenTable, and Pandora. Entune’s data services include fuel guide, sports scores, stocks, traffic and weather.

Early this week, Toyota said the new Camry will be officially unveiled August 23 in a series of four simultaneous reveals around the United States. The unveiling will be made at the Automotive Hall of Fame in Dearborn, Michigan, as well as New York, Los Angeles and Georgetown, Kentucky, home of the Camry manufacturing plant.

The 2012 Camry will go on sale later this fall, and prices are expected to be in line with the previous generation. The hybrid version will also be unveiled on the 23rd.
