Parts for your 2023 Toyota Camry-Driveshafts

2023 Toyota Camry driveshafts — what they do and when to service them

Yes, driveshafts are relevant on the 2023 Toyota Camry. The Australian and New Zealand–spec Camry is front‑wheel drive, so it uses two front driveshafts (often called CV axles or half‑shafts) that run from the transaxle to each front wheel. There’s no long propeller shaft to the rear because the car isn’t rear‑wheel drive or AWD in these markets. This layout is confirmed in Toyota’s service information for the AXVH70/75 series (Front Drive Shaft Assembly, LH/RH) and the 2023 Camry owner’s and workshop references, which detail the CV joints and boots used on the front axle.

On a 2023 Camry, the driveshafts transfer torque from the transaxle to the front wheels while allowing for steering and suspension movement. They use constant‑velocity (CV) joints at each end so the power delivery stays smooth at all angles. When they’re in good nick, you don’t notice them at all
