最近谍照记者拍到了2018款丰田凯美瑞轿车在道路上进行测试的照片，当时车辆进行了很好的伪装。车身伪装很好的掩盖了车身线条，但仍能看出车头采用了更宽格栅和类似下一代NASCAR赛车版的锐利前大灯。进气口略小，但仍具备了强烈的家族风格。新款凯美瑞侧面轮廓也很漂亮，车鼻逐渐尖细并汇合到一点，侧面可见突出的折线和肩线。车顶线条略微弯曲，既有四门轿跑车的时尚，又具备传统轿车宽敞的头部空间。黑色的轮圈和低矮的行驶高度使之具备高性能车型的车身姿态。车尾细窄的尾灯组向两侧延伸，行李箱上还集成了一个小的扰流器。该车的双出式排气尾管分别设置在后保险杠两侧下面。虽然车尾没有采用更具侵略性的全尺寸散流器，但进一步延长的后脸看起来更具运动感。据传新车入门级车型将搭载2.5升四缸引擎，但为了降低油耗也将采用阿特金森循环系统。由于该车与最新款普锐斯共享TGNA模块化平台，新车重量将进一步降低。此外，新车还将搭载2.0升四缸涡轮引擎，而该引擎顺理成章的将搭载在运动版上。预计未来最终还将增加混动版，但现在不确定是否还会有V6版本。新车将作为2018款车型于明年发布，预计将在明年1月的底特律车展亮相。

2018 Toyota Camry spied looking fierce, maybe a performance model?
Toyota is doing a good job of keeping the next-generation 2018 Camry under wraps, but a new batch of spy photos catches the future iteration of the popular sedan testing on the road.

Whereas the last Camry we saw under development wore a ton of cladding, this one swapped over to camouflage. It doesn’t hide the vehicle’s lines nearly as well. In front, there’s the wide grille and sharp headlights similar to the leaked picture of the next NASCAR racing version. The intakes are a little smaller here, but there’s a strong family resemblance.

This Camry looks great in profile, too. The nose tapers downward to a point, and there’s a prominent crease along the shoulder line. The roof is slightly curvaceous and appears to split the difference between the stylish appearance of a four-door coupe and the extra headroom in the back of a traditional sedan. The black wheels and low ride height on this example give it a performance-oriented stance, especially by Camry standards.

Narrow taillights wrap around the rear, and the designers mold a small spoiler into the trunk. This one also has dual-exit exhausts that come out from each corner. While not as aggressive as a full diffuser, the extended rear fascia looks sporty in the way that it surrounds them.

Rumors indicate that a 2.5-liter four-cylinder would be the Camry’s base engine, but it would run on the Atkinson cycle for greater fuel economy. The new model should weigh less thanks to a switch to the modular TGNA platform, which is also under the latest Prius. In addition, a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder reportedly joins the lineup, and the engine might make sense for this sporty variant. Expect hybrid eventually, too. It’s not currently clear whether a V6 would also remain part of the lineup.

To have the next-gen Camry on sale for the 2018 model year, expect a debut sometime in 2017. We anticipate the premiere at an event in the first half of the year, maybe even at the North American International Auto Show this January in Detroit.
