Malaysian Camry to get more bling?


The US Camry has traditionally been a very sober car with hardly any chrome outside or shiny wood in the cabin but Asians like their wood glossy and seem to enjoy rubbing chrome trim on weekends and that is why we get a slightly different variant of the cars offered to the US market.



These pictures come from Toyota Ukraine and on the surface of it, it may look  like a completely different Camry but a closer inspection of the roofline and glasshouse (two things that are way too expensive to change willy nilly) will show that they are actually the same car launched in the US recently but with a very different nose and tail.

For the rest of the difference and to view the full gallery, follow the jump




Toyota has moved away from their one-car for the world policy for the better part of two decades now, the cars are now built on one platforms with different styling and chassis set-up to suit the demands of Europe, America and the rest of the world.



The chrome grille  and headlamps hint at the Lexus LS because, it seems Eastern Europeans and Asian like it like that.

The cabin also gets acres of shiny wood and lighter shade of trim.











Expect this design to be the one chosen for Malaysia.
