Toyota Introduces Sixth-Generation Camry For 2007 And Adds Camry Hybrid To Line
The all-new, sixth-generation 2007 Toyota Camry carries on the Toyota tradition of legendary quality, dependability, and reliability that has made Camry America's best-selling car four years running and eight of the past nine years. Launched in spring 2006, the new Camry is completely redesigned for the 2007 model year and also offers the all-new Camry Hybrid equipped with Toyota's industry leading Hybrid Synergy Drive.
2007 Toyota Camry's athletic exterior design signals a departure from the more upright style of its predecessor. Fashion has not taken a back seat to function however, as the 2007 Camry delivers more room, comfort and safety technology than before. At the same time, the new-generation Camry puts a sharper focus on driving dynamics, especially in the sporty SE grade. Performance has been enhanced across the line, with the Camry Hybrid setting a new standard for performance / fuel efficiency balance.
Camry Hybrid, featuring a new version of Toyota's Hybrid Synergy Drive, joins the Prius and Highlander Hybrid as the third hybrid vehicle in Toyota's line-up. Other 2007 Toyota Camry models are available with a newly enhanced 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine or a 268-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 that is new to the line.
Along with its gains in performance, safety and comfort, the 2007 Camry delivers the exceptional value that has helped make this model so popular. Integral to Camry's value is outstanding fuel efficiency, with EPA-estimated 40 mpg city/38 mpg highway ratings for the Camry Hybrid. Four-cylinder Toyota Camry models have city/highway fuel economy ratings of 24/34 mpg (24/33 with automatic transmission), and V6 Camry models return 22/31 mpg EPA estimated rating.
2007 Toyota Camry is built on a longer wheelbase than before (109.3 in., up from 107.1 in.), yet, with its shortened rear overhang, maintains the same overall length as the previous model. The track is wider, with the wheels pushed toward the extremes of the car's corners. 2007 Toyota Camry front fascia conveys the Toyota identity with its distinctive new grille design. The headlights incorporate projector-type low beams for better illumination and distinctive style.
2007 Toyota Camry offers more interior space - in particular, fore-and-aft space - but with about the same external footprint as before.
2007 Toyota Camry Structure and Safety
2007 Toyota Camry's body structure is designed to absorb collision-impact forces and help minimize impact deformation to the passenger cabin. High-strength steel is used for B-pillar and rocker panel reinforcements to help manage overall body deformation in the event of a side collision. Inside the cabin, even the seat frames are designed to help absorb side collision loads.
Dual-stage advanced SRS airbags, seat-mounted side airbags and side curtain airbags and a driver's knee airbag, are standard on all Camry models for 2007. The front seats use Toyota's Whiplash Injury Lessening (WIL) seat design.
All 2007 Camry models come equipped with a standard anti-lock brake system (ABS), Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) and Brake Assist. The Brake Assist feature is designed to determine if the driver is attempting emergency braking. If the driver has not stepped firmly enough on the brake pedal to engage the anti-lock brake system (ABS), Brake Assist supplements the applied braking power until the driver releases pedal pressure.
