2010 Toyota Camry XLE

All the fancy features show up in the XLE trim of the 2010 Toyota Camry. Dual-zone automatic climate controls, a power sunroof, JBL 6-CD stereo with satellite radio, iPod adapter, and Bluetooth, and a garage door opener are just the start. The XLE is powered by a 2.5-liter engine, with buyer’s choice of a manual or automatic six-speed transmission, the automatic featuring manual-shift capability. Both front buckets are powered, and passenger amenities like illuminated visor mirrors, compass, outside temperature indicator, and an automatically dimming rearview are included.

Foglights and 16-inch alloys are unique to this trim, along with a rear sunshade not found on other Camry trims. The tilt and telescoping steering wheel has radio controls and is leather-wrapped. Power windows and door locks are met with heated power mirrors as well as remote keyless entry. For visibility, look to variable-intermittent front wipers, a rear defogger, and automatic headlights.

Antilock, four-wheel disc brakes are aided by brake assist, and an anti-skid system joins traction control to keep the wheels from spinning. Dual front, front-side, curtain-side, and driver’s knee airbags are all standard, as are a tire pressure monitor, daytime running lights, and a theft-deterrent system.
