1995 Toyota Camry Review

The midsize queen of quiet
Walkaround
So what's new about the '95 Camry? The exterior has been refined - a modest face-lift that updates the Camry's elegant, seamless body design. The headlamps are slightly more angular in the new models, and they have a heightened crystal appearance. Also, the grille is more narrow, giving the body a wider, sportier look.

New option groups include a power package on basic DX models (power windows/mirrors/locks), revised fabric for LE models, new fabric for the sporty SE and luxurious XLE models, and a moonroof and a 4-way power-adjustable front passenger seat with leather trim for the XLE.

Even though anti-lock brakes (ABS) are still an option on all models except the XLE sedan, the overall safety package is quite impressive. Dual airbags are standard, and the front head restraints, even when lowered all the way, are high enough to protect you from whiplash. An added plus for parents are the child-protection rear door locks on sedans and wagons, and special retractors on the front and rear 3-point seat belts, which make it a snap to secure baby seats without having to use a separate locking clip.

The seat belts also feature adjustable upper anchors, which add to security as well as comfort.

The trunk is roomy enough to hold a week's worth of groceries or four sets of golf clubs with space left over. If you take advantage of the folding split rear seatback, you could probably get a new lawn mower in there, as well.

The Camry is bigger than its key Asian rivals, the Accord, Mazda 626, Nissan Altima and Hyundai Sonata, as well as the new Chrysler Cirrus/Dodge Stratus. It's a little smaller than the Ford Taurus and the redesigned Chevrolet Lumina.

Like last year, the Camry offers two engine choices: the smooth 125-hp 4-cylinder, which is standard on all models except the SE; and the even smoother 188-hp V6.

A 5-speed manual transmission is standard on the DX model, and all other Camrys come equipped with an electronically controlled 4-speed automatic. Next Page
