If You Want To Save Gas, Go for The Toyota Camry Hybrid
By Performance Guru | August 3, 2009
Toyota has two gigantic 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 top selling car in America, the Camry is going to be overhauled and re-engineered. Let’s take a look at some of the changes scheduled for Toyota’s venerable model.
New Styling Cues – Nobody has ever expounded the Camry is a knock out when it comes to style. Notwithstanding its pedestrian look, the Camry has managed to capitalize on Toyota quality, price, and engineering to present a vehicle that is obviously a best seller. Still, critics have typically yawned at the Camry’s looks, but that may shortly all change and dramtically at that. Borrowing some styling cues from Toyota’s Lexus line up of top end cars, the 2007 Camry is anticipated to please motorists and critics alike. Witness the recently made over Toyota Avalon: what was a tasteless, a tasteless, full sized vehicle has now been transformed into a smooth, lush sedan.
Time For A Hybrid – Toyota is riding the hybrid crest and it will, introduce hybrid technology into the Camry line up. Like all other Camry models, the hybrid version will also be built in the 1st Toyota hybrid to be built outside of Japan. However, the battery and inverter will be sourced from Japan whilst 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 – Anticipated to be in the same size range as the present model, the Camry will keep its current 4 and 6 cylinder engines, but both will be redone enough to crank out additional horsepower without compromising on fuel economy.
The Camry’s chief rival during the last decade has been the Honda treaty. With a hybrid offering available and an enhanced appearance in place, the Camry is probably going to strengthen its hold on the “top seller” class when the new model is released.
No one knows for sure if the “hybrid phase” is simply a trend 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 viable alternative to thirsty internal combustion engines. Toyota, for its part, continues to take advantage of this trend and the Camry is the latest vehicle in Toyota’s expanding arsenal to successfully incorporate hybrid technology.
