Trims and Powertrains

The 2026 Camry’s lineup consists of five trims: LE, SE, Nightshade, XLE, and XSE. Their powertrain unites a 184-hp 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine with dual electric motors for a total output of 225 horsepower. A front-wheel drivetrain and an electronically controlled continuously variable transmission (eCVT) are standard; the SE, Nightshade, and XSE get paddle shifters. The optional electronic on-demand all-wheel drivetrain (AWD) adds an electric motor on the rear axle and increases the combined horsepower to 232.

The LE leads the lineup in fuel efficiency, returning 52 mpg city with FWD, 50 mpg city with AWD, and 49 mpg highway in either drivetrain. The rest of the lineup achieves 47 mpg city and 45 mpg highway with FWD, and 46 mpg city/highway with AWD, except the XSE, which drops to 43 mpg city/highway. Every Camry’s drive mode selector has Sport, Eco, Normal, and EV modes. The LE and XLE ride on independent MacPherson front struts with tower bracing, and a multi-link rear suspension (both with stabilizer bars), while the SE, Nightshade, and XSE upgrade to sport-tuned shocks and springs.

Standard Furnishings

The LE’s sporty appearance shows off a lower rear diffuser, front side air curtains, a horizontal bar grille, Bi-LED projector headlights with auto-on/off, LED daytime running lights, LED combination taillights, and 16-inch silver-painted alloy wheels. It also gets fabric-trimmed seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, a 7-inch digital gauge cluster, wireless smartphone charging, remote keyless entry, push-button start, five USB ports (three front, two rear), a 12-volt auxiliary power outlet, a manual day/night rearview mirror, heated power exterior mirrors with integrated turn signals and blind-spot warning indicators, halogen turn-signal and reverse lights, an acoustic noise-reducing windshield, and an overhead console with sunglasses storage.

The SE upgrades its look with a dual-tipped chrome exhaust, a rear spoiler, a rear lower diffuser, a mesh grille, 18-inch black-finished alloy wheels, sporty aluminum pedals, racing-inspired black air curtains and front side canards, and side rocker panels. On the inside, it adds SofTex upholstery, an 8-way power-adjustable driver’s seat, and a leather-trimmed steering wheel and shift knob. The debuting Nightshade makes a statement with every amenity and sport-trim accent found on the SE, all in a distinctive gloss-black finish, along with black badging and 19-inch satin black-finished alloy wheels.

The XLE and XSE both get heated front seats, an 8-way power-adjustable front passenger seat, a 12.3-inch digital instrument display, an auto-dimming rearview mirror with a HomeLink universal transceiver, the Smart Key System on the front doors and trunk, dual LED projector headlights with auto-on/off, premium LED combination taillights, white LED ambient interior lighting, noise-reducing front side glass, and adjustable rear headrests. The XLE is leather- and microfiber-upholstered with 18-inch two-tone machined and black-finished wheels, while the XSE boasts a full leather interior and 19-inch smoked gray and black-finished alloy wheels.

Optional Packages

The Convenience Package gives the LE, SE, and Nightshade an auto-dimming rearview mirror with a HomeLink universal garage door opener and the Smart Key System on the front doors (the LE also gets the power-adjustable driver’s seat that the other trims receive with their standard equipment). The Cold Weather Package equips all three lower trims with heated front seats and a heated leather-wrapped steering wheel. The LE, SE, and Nightshade are also all eligible to add a power moonroof. The Premium Package enhances the XLE and XSE with a panoramic moonroof, heated and ventilated front seats, a 10-inch head-up display, driver’s-side seat and mirror memory, and Digital Key compatibility.

It consists of proactive driving assist, road sign assist, lane tracing assist, lane departure alert with steering assist, full-speed range dynamic radar cruise control, a pre-collision system with pedestrian detection, and a backup camera with dynamic gridlines. Also standard are a blind-spot monitor with rear cross-traffic alert and safe exit alert, hill start assist control, automatic high beams, and a rear seat reminder. The available Premium Plus Package outfits the XLE and XSE with traffic jam assist, front cross-traffic alert, lane change assist, rear cross-traffic braking, front and rear parking assist with automatic braking, a 360-degree panoramic view monitor, and a driver monitor camera.

Infotainment and Connectivity

Every Camry comes with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, Bluetooth for hands-free phone and audio streaming, SiriusXM satellite radio, and an audio system with six speakers. The XLE and XSE may upgrade to a 9-speaker JBL audio system with a subwoofer and amplifier by adding the Premium Package or Premium Plus Package.
