Only 2 owners. $10,980 Negotiable. Overview Toyota's Aurion V6 convincingly takes the big family car challenge right up to Holden Commodore and Ford Falcon. [9] Design patents were filed on 27 December 2005 at the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The same, separate model designations of the Camry and Aurion are on sale in Australia and New Zealand. Search for new & used Toyota Aurion Touring cars for sale in Australia. In Vietnam, the Camry was introduced in 2006 and has been available only in sedan form with two different trims: Camry 2.4 G and 3.5 Q. I’m cautious when it comes to CVT’s, so the newer model Nissan Maxima/Altima were ruled out. Notable differences include the redesigned upper dashboard portion and restyled centre console, plus the substitution of the Australian Camry's hand-operated parking brake with a foot-operated equivalent (as shared with the Camry for Japan and North America). My only complaint is the driver's sun visor, which has lost some of its spring and has gone limp. [42][43], The Aurion employs a version of Toyota's 2GR-FE V6 engine that also powers the V6 Camry outside of Australasia. In tribute to the Australian workers who put the car together, there are no creaks, rattles or groans. While Asian production of the XV50 series began in late 2011, Toyota's Australian operations did not take on production of the new model until 2012. [33] The high-performance TRD models offer a similar sports-oriented design, but are distinguishable by the use of unique body parts. The boot is large but the seats can't be folded in Touring and Sportivo spec due to a different suspension set up. [11] The original sales predictions were not met, with the Avalon failing to challenge rivals such as the Holden Commodore and the Ford Falcon. This engine is only offered in the top-of-the-line Q trim. Even though the engine is 3.5 litres with plenty of power on paper (200kW), the real “shove in your back” occurs in the middle to upper revs, and not in the low-rev range. The Aurion-based Camry, sold in Japan and other Asian markets, received a large facelift in 2014. This engine is offered in G and V trims. This same transmission is also utilised by the supercharged TRD variants. View the V6 Camry range. [35] The revised Aurion-based Camry previewed the Australian Aurion's then upcoming facelift. In the previous two markets, the car replaced the Avalon model, which can trace its roots back to the early 1990s. With this, Toyota reintroduced, for the first time since 2006, the V6 Camry. This involves body features that act as a counterpoint to other body features. The bodykit is from the Sportivo viarants and the model has unique badging. Total cost was approximately A$1 million. [30], For certain markets like China, where Camry sits right below similar-sized Mercedes-Benz cars as a luxury model, it is important for the Aurion to exemplify the traits of such vehicles. Because TSA were an unknown quantity, having never designed a production vehicle, it took the division some time to convince Japan that they could indeed design a car themselves. [9][16][20] While the work in Japan was being undertaken, TSA began to make changes for the Australian Aurion variants. The design registrations for the facelifted hybrid version, nothing changes made to the original were filed on 19 December 2008 at the US Patent and Trademark Office. [71] The Camry Hybrid was introduced in April 2010 with trim levels known as the 240HG, 240HV and 240HV G-Book. [82] Furthermore, the SL gains an aluminium rear bumper reinforcement addition, and is the first production car in the world to use the Eaton twin-vortices supercharger.

[6] Along with the naturally aspirated version, Toyota produced an Australia-only supercharged TRD Aurion between 2007 and 2009 as tuned by Toyota Racing Development (TRD). [53], Prior to its introduction, a target of 24,000 annualised sales were predicted for the Australian market, double that of the Avalon's eventual sales rate. Unable to determine your location. Designated "XV40", Toyota manufactured the first generation Aurion between 2006 and 2012 until it was fully replaced by the XV50 series. [48], In some Asian countries where the Aurion is sold as the Toyota Camry, both 2.0- and 2.4-litre powerplants are offered. In the two generations it was produced, the Aurion was derived from the equivalent Toyota Camry. The scores given without the optional test indicate that the maximum two points that could have been earned would have been slightly less than needed to give the Aurion a five-star rating anyway. [64] Front and rear parking sensors, and dual-zone air conditioning were also fitted. Only 1500 were built, all of which were based on the AT-X. This third test, allows tested vehicles to be eligible for a five-star rating if the initial score is high enough. [49][50] The naturally aspirated 3.5-litre engine is also available in some of these markets. In New Zealand, the model designations are: AT-X, Touring, and Sportivo SX6. In particular, the car has been praised for its good performance mated with comparatively low fuel consumption, and the inclusion of safety and comfort fe… This rewards me with fuel economy of around 9 litres per 100 kilometres. In 2006, Toyota Australia released a heavily enhanced version known as the TRD Aurion, with a supercharged engine and full bodykit. The scrap dealer came to collect it. [70], In China, the Camry was unveiled in late April 2006 and commenced production on 23 May 2006. [29] The front-end's "double concave architecture" can also be characterised by its protruding bonnet crease line and deep grille. [16][18][19] Due to the success of TSA's earlier concepts and the 380L,[9] Toyota Australia was given the authorisation to manufacture both the regular 042L and 043L Camrys and sell them side by side. As a result, the company recruited Paul Beranger in August 2002 to set up Toyota Style Australia (TSA) in an industrial complex located in Dingley Village, Victoria.

[15], Toyota, discovering that the Australian public wanted something that was modern and designed with consideration to the Australian market, began full-scale planning work on its Avalon replacement in 2002. In particular, the car has been praised for its good performance mated with comparatively low fuel consumption, and the inclusion of safety and comfort features that are optional on competitor vehicles. Outward visibility is okay for a large car. The Q trim is equipped with the 3.5-litre 2GR-FE V6 powertrain and a dual exhaust system with all the features of the V trim. [65] The Touring SE was reintroduced in identical form in April 2008,[66] again in October 2008,[67] and then finally in April 2009. Remaining units were also available as the Camry Classical for the 2013 model year with the 1AZ-FE engine and four-speed automatic gearbox with trims levels: 200E and 200G and priced at 182,800 and 193,800 yuan respectively (26,765 and US$28,375).
