Inside The Toyota Camry Hybrid

Posted: Jul 13, 2009 |Comments: 0 | Views: 120 |

Toyota has 2 massive things in store for the Camry when the 2007 model year version of the auto rolls out this coming summer : a complete redesign and the availability of a hybrid engine. Already the fastest selling auto in America, the Camry is certain to be overhauled and re-engineered. Let's have a look at some of the changes booked for Toyota's venerable model.

New Styling Cues - Nobody has ever said that the Camry is a knock out when it comes to style. Regardless of its pedestrian look, the Camry has managed to take advantage of Toyota quality, price, and engineering to present a vehicle that is obviously a best seller. Still, critics have routinely yawned at the Camry's looks, but that will soon all change and dramtically at that. Borrowing some styling cues from Toyota's Lexus line up of high end cars, the 2007 Camry is predicted to please motorists and critics alike. Witness the lately made over Toyota Avalon : what was a tasteless, a bland, full sized car has been changed into a graceful, luxurious sedan.


Time For A Hybrid - Toyota is riding the hybrid crest and it will, therefore, introduce hybrid technology into the Camry line up. Like all of the Camry models, the hybrid version will be built in the first Toyota hybrid to be built outside of Japan. However, the battery and inverter will be sourced from Japan while the engine will be Kentucky built. The Camry will join the Prius and the Highlander as the third Toyota model to supply hybrid technology.

More Power - Expected to be in the same size range as the present model, the Camry will keep its current 4 and six cylinder engines, but both will be redone enough to crank out extra hp without compromising on fuel economy.

The Camry's chief rival over the last ten years has been the Honda deal. With a hybrid offering available and an improved appearance in effect the Camry is likely to brace its hold on the "top seller" class when the new model is released.

No one knows for sure if the "hybrid phase" is just a fad or something that will eventually catch on. With regime credits still free and high gas costs at the pump, Americans continue to look at hybrids as a workable alternative to parched internal combustion engines. Toyota, for its part, continues to take advantage of this trend and the Camry is the most recent auto in Toyota's expanding arms depot to successfully incorporate hybrid technology.
