Toyota has 2 massive things in store for the Camry when the 2007 model year version of the car rolls out this coming summer : a total revamp and the supply of a hybrid engine. Already the fastest selling auto 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 said that the Camry is a knock out when it comes to style. Notwithstanding its pedestrian look, the Camry has managed to take advantage of Toyota quality, price, and engineering to present a car that is obviously a best seller. Still, critics have customarily yawned at the Camry’s looks, but which will shortly all change and dramtically at that. Borrowing some styling cues from Toyota’s Lexus line up of luxury cars, the 2007 Camry is predicted to delight 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 smooth, lush 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 the 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 imported from Japan whilst the engine will be Kentucky built. The Camry will join the Prius and the Highlander as the third Toyota model to offer hybrid technology.

More Power – Expected to be in the same size range as the current model, the Camry will keep its current four and 6 cylinder engines, but both will be redone enough to crank out additional horsepower without compromising on fuel economy.

The Camry’s chief competitor over the past decade has been the Honda treaty. With a hybrid offering available and an improved appearance in place, the Camry is probably going to fortify its hold on the “top seller” category when the new model is released.

No one knows for sure if the “hybrid phase” is just a fad or something which will eventually catch on. With regime credits still free and high gas prices at the pump, USA citizens continue to look at hybrids as a workable alternative to thirsty internal combustion engines. Toyota, for its part, continues to capitalize on this trend and the Camry is the newest car in Toyota’s expanding arms depot to incorporate hybrid technology.
