After all, Toyota has actually unveiled both models, just in time for the expo.

Color choices for the body of the vehicle include Black Sand Pearl, Super White and Absolutely Red.

Toyota claims that 8,000 examples will be available for sale from August to December 2015.
Now, let’s take a look at the Toyota Camry Special Edition. Based on the SE trim, this special edition Camry is going to sport smoked taillights, 18-inch bespoke alloy wheels with a 2-tone color, electronically tilting moonroof and two color options, which are, Blizzard Pearl and Blue Streak Metallic. On the interior, the car gets treated with special floor mats, highly contrasting blue stitches, sport seats with blue patterned inserts as well as black SofTex bolsters, Smart Key System, Entune Audio Plus, Entune Premium Audio with app and navigation suites just like the one on the special edition Corolla, a sport meter cluster featuring blue details on a white background and also a Qi wireless charging system.
According to Toyota, customers will be able to expect approximately 12,000 examples of Camry Special Edition from August this year to January next year. In addition to that, the Japanese automaker also claims that all vehicles will get their power from a 2.5L 4-cylinder engine that is mated to a 6-speed automatic gearbox. This should give the vehicles mentioned above a total power of 178 bhp.
