Default Hybrid Camry Concept Vehicle

Being shown at an Australian autoshow as part of the introduction of manufacturing the TCH locally. Concept is mechanically same as regular Hybrid Camry but adds an aerodynamic bodykit with vertical LED fog lights, blue-hued tail lights, pearl white paint, chrome alloy wheels and custom leather seats with the Hybrid Synergy Drive logo.

Nice looking....except the big open "mouth" will have to grow on me...

I always like looking at the concept vehicle but then am saddened about how long it takes for them to show up (if ever).

I think it looks like a melding of the CTS and a Yaris...the "mouth" might come from a Chrysler Concord

Yeah, I certainly see the Yaris in there.

I am interested in seeing exactly how well the LED fogs work. I imagine they are using yellow tinted plastic or color corrected LEDs as opposed to white LEDs. A plus of the "mouth" is that there is less surface area for rock chips! :-/ ... The grill might leave a little to be desired... I hope they add HID as stock headlights.

It's different, but I like it! Even that big gaping hole in the center!

I think we're looking at the next year's Camry. Look at April Consumer Reports page 19. The new Prius has a similar look, see page 13, same magazine.

Could you possibly scan the pages? Thanks

Not sure if that's legal (copyright laws, etc.)

I think this is the US Version of the 2010 TCH.
