Toyota unveiled its newly designed Toyota Camry XSE for the NASCAR Cup Series on Monday.
Joe Gibbs Racing, 23XI Racing and Legacy Motor Club will compete with the new Camry for the 2024 Cup season.
The Camry XSE replaces the Camry TRD, which won 18 races and 25 poles in the past two Cup seasons.
Toyota Racing Development worked with Calty Design on the car, which is designed to mirror the body styling characteristics of the recently unveiled 2025 Toyota Camry XSE.
New features of the Toyota Camry race car include a distinctive hammerhead styling on the front facia with an upper grille slot that is tied into the updated slim and wide headlights.
Other changes include C-shaped corner vents outside of the larger lower grille, new character lines for the hood and new hood duct exits. The back of the car features a revised quarter panel stying and chamfered bumper corners on the back of the corner panels and thinner taillights.
“The 2024 Camry XSE race car will properly highlight Toyota’s attention to detail as has been showcased in the new street version Toyota Camry. We are excited to bring this car to the race track and continue to achieve success with it for years to come,” said Paul Doleshal, group manager of motorsports, TMNA (Toyota Motor North America), in a statement. “The amount of work put into this car’s production cannot be overstated, and we thank everyone at TRD and Calty Design for their efforts in creating a premier vehicle for our team partners to compete for wins and championships.”
Toyota’s 2024 lineup in NASCAR is: Camry XSE in Cup, the GR Supra in Xfinity and Tundra TRD Pro in the Truck Series.
“The foundation of Toyota’s presence in NASCAR is our commitment to continuous improvement on and off the race track. Our Camry XSE race car reinforces that mantra and accurately reflects the key design attributes of the all-new production Toyota Camry,” said David Wilson, president of TRD, in a statement.
“As we prepare for the 2024 season, we look forward to working closely with our race team partners to optimize the performance of the newly-designed Camry race car so we can continue our legacy of leading laps, winning races and competing for championships with the Camry nameplate.”
