As the top Camry trim available for 2009, the Camry XLE comes well-equipped with such standard features as a four-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel, wood-grain-style shift lever, a dual-zone automatic climate control system, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a sliding center armrest, and an eight-speaker JBL AM/FM audio system with a six-disc in-dash CD changer and MP3 capability.

Outside, standard features include a power tilt and slide moonroof, heated outside mirrors, and aerodynamic multi-reflector halogen headlights.

A 158-horsepower four-cylinder engine powers the Camry XLE. The engine links to either a five-speed manual transmission, which comes standard, or an optional five-speed automatic transmission.

Drivers and reviewers give the Camry good marks for its interior comfort, safety features, handling, economy, and ease of handling, as well as its exterior styling and build quality. Some drivers have reported an increase in quality issues in the past few years, but given the fact that the Camry holds its value well, the 2009 version should be as popular with drivers as its predecessors.
