We can verify that the Draw Tite hitch part # 36540 that fits your 2015 Toyota Camry has the towing capacities of 3,500 lb trailer weight and 350 lb tongue weight but as far as the vehicle you'd have to go with what a Toyota dealer or your manual states. We do have quite a few hitches for vehicles that technically are not rated for towing and how that happens is that if there's a demand for a hitch to be made for a vehicle our manufacturers will make it as there are plenty of people who choose to ignore the manufacturer recommendations or they only use the hitch for a carrier like a bike rack.
