23XI Racing driver Bubba Wallace is excited to drive the Toyota’s newly launched NASCAR Cup Series Toyota Camry XSE Next Gen race car that will make its debut in the 2024 Cup season. This model replaced the Toyota Camry TRD, which produced 18 wins and 25 poles during the first two seasons of NASCAR’s seventh-generation stock-car platform.

Bubba Wallace said that the new Toyota car is looking good and the team is testing the new car to get more data and figures to understand what this car can possibly bring.

Ahead of the NASCAR Awards at the Music City Center, Bubba Wallace said (via Frontstretch):

“I'm excited. I think Siebel and Eric is testing, so hopefully we get some good data and figure out what this new car brings from just from the data and conversations that we've had about it, it looks really good for us, but from paper to reality will be a massive difference. So hopefully it all lines up together.”

Speaking on Toyota Camry XSE car, Wallace also saidb:

“It looks good. I debuted it when we were in Vegas to our Toyota partners a couple months ago. It looks really cool. Looks different, a little bit more streamlined, but hope the drive is good. As good as it looks.”

Toyota, TRD (Toyota Racing Development USA) and Calty Design worked together to ensure that the body style features are as close as possible to the recently launched 2025 Toyota Camry XSE.
