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 total revamp and the supply of a hybrid engine. Already the best selling car in America, the Camry is sure 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. Notwithstanding its pedestrian look, the Camry has managed to capitalize on Toyota quality, price, and engineering to present a vehicle that is clearly a best seller. Still, critics have customarily yawned at the Camry’s looks, but which may shortly 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 recently made over Toyota Avalon: what used to be a bland, full sized vehicle has now been transformed into a graceful, splendid 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 other 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 imported from Japan while the engine will be Kentucky built. The Camry will join the Prius and the Highlander as the 3rd Toyota model to supply hybrid technology.
More Power – Expected to be in the same size range as the Camry will keep its current model, the Camry will keep its current 4 and six cylinder engines, but both will be reworked enough to crank out additional horsepower 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 enhanced appearance prepared the Camry is probably going to brace its hold on the “top seller” category when the new model is released.
No one knows for sure if the “hybrid phase” is simply a fad or something which will ultimately catch on. With regime credits still available and high gas prices at the pump, Americans continue to look at hybrids as a feasible alternative to parched internal combustion engines. Toyota, for its part, continues to take advantage of this trend and the Camry is the newest car in Toyota’s expanding arsenal to successfully incorporate hybrid technology.
