The 2010 Camry Hybrid has taken energy efficiency and fuel conservation to whole new levels. Camry has set forth the technologically-advanced, eco-friendly hybrid that runs with an incomparable dual-mode gas-electric powertrain to minimize an environmental footprint. Available in only one trim, the Camry Hybrid comes standard with Hybrid Synergy Drive, a combination of electric motor/gasoline engine fitted with a continuously variable transmission. It has officially combined Toyota reliability and performance, and added increased fuel efficiency, to make for a highly agreeable outcome.
The Camry Hybrid comes with a 2.4-Liter, 4-cylinder, DOHC, aluminum alloy block engine. It boasts an electronically controlled continuously variable transmission built to last and perform. Even with a 4-cylinder engine that reaps an excellent fuel economy of 33/34 mpg city/hwy, the Camry Hybrid still manages to deliver an incredible 147 horsepower and 138 pound-feet of torque.
Safety is something Toyota does not take lightly, which is why security is upped in the new Hybrid. Driver and passenger advanced airbags and seat-mounted side airbags, side-impact door beams, the Anti-lock Brake System (ABS), Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management (VDIM), direct Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), stability control and Vehicle Traction Control (TRAC) are merely a few of the exalted safety features integrated throughout the Camry Hybrid.
The interior boasts a courtesy lamp, cruise control, a tilt steering wheel with audio/climate control, two 12V auxiliary power outlets, rear center headrests, power door locks with an anti-lockout feature, eight-way power driver seat and four-way manual passenger seat, a 60/40 split rear seat, and a high performance six-speaker CD/MP3 stereo with an auxiliary audio jack. The exterior is comprised of many great features. Stylish 16" steel wheels, quality P215/60 R16 all-season tires, keyless entry and ignition, a chrome exhaust tip, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, and multi-reflector projector beam headlamps, all make the new Hybrid a sight for sore eyes on and off the road.
The Camry Hybrid is available with a wide variety of extra options, including a moonroof, navigation system, leathers seats, heated front seats, a four-way power passenger seat, Bluetooth integrated technology, and a satellite radio, among others. The Camry Hybrid has introduced luxury, reliability, and lasting performance to the automotive industry in the form of a sleek, visually-appealing new package for 2010.
The 2010 Camry Hybrid Rewards You with an Affordable Price Tag and Great Fuel Efficiency | Base Price: $26,150 |
With its cushy ride, seating for five, excellent fuel efficiency, and affordable price tag, the 2010 Camry Hybrid is the sedan that everyone can smile about. "The 2010 Toyota Camry Hybrid is the rare hybrid that makes both environmental and financial sense," says Edmunds.com in their review. The 2010 Camry Hybrid gets you where you need to go with a dual-mode gas-electric hybrid powertrain. This technology enables you to use only the electric motor at low speeds and while coasting on the highway, which means extra gas-savings for you. The fuel efficiency is 33/34 MPG city/highway. The electric motor also helps out when you accelerate. The heart of this Camry is a 147 horsepower, 2.4-liter, 4-cylinder, aluminum alloy block engine with an aluminum alloy head, and 16-valve Dual Over Head Cam with VVT-i. Power is sent to the wheels via the electronically controlled continuously variable transmission.
Smooth sailing is provided by the more than adequate suspension which includes front independent MacPherson strut suspension with a stabilizer bar, and rear independent dual link suspension with a stabilizer bar. The steering is electric power-assisted rack-and-pinion. The braking system includes an electronically controlled brake system--which means faster brake actuation and shorter stopping distances. The braking system also includes Brake Assist. Brake assist measures the amount of pressure a driver is applying to the brake and supplements it by adding additional pressure if it determines that the driver is trying to make an emergency stop. When the driver eases up on the brake pedal, brake assist eases up as well. Other braking features include ventilated front disc brakes with hydraulic power assist, solid rear disc brakes with hydraulic power assist, a foot pedal parking brake, a standard anti-lock brake system, and an integrated regenerative brake system.
Standard exterior features for the 2010 Camry Hybrid include daytime running lights with off mode, dual color-keyed power outside mirrors, a chrome exhaust tip, variable intermittent wipers, a temporary spare tire/wheel, and multi-reflector projector beam headlamps with an auto on/off feature.
The 2010 Camry Hybrid interior gives you a lot of bang for your buck. Standard features include an eight way power driver's seat, a dual zone climate control air conditioner with a micro-dust and pollen filter and a plasmacluster ionizer, and a tilt/telescopic steering wheel with audio and climate controls. Other niceties include power door locks with an anti-lockout feature, power windows with auto up/down, cruise control, rear center headrests, a smart key system with push button start, a 60/40 split fold-down rear seat, and fabric seat and door trim treated with the Fraichir process. The Fraichir process uses a protein found in silk worm cocoons to treat the fabric making it soft and supple to the touch. The smart key system automatically unlocks the doors and starts the car for you if you have the key in your pocket. You'll also like the multi-informational display, two 12V auxiliary power outlets, lockable illuminated glove box, illuminated entry, and a fold-down rear center armrest with dual cupholders.
The audio system includes an AM/FM/CD player with satellite radio capability, MP3/WMA playback capability, an auxiliary audio jack, six speakers, and an in-glass antenna.
The 2010 Camry Hybrid also gets praise in the family-friendly category for being safe. In crash tests conducted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration the Camry Hybrid received five out of five stars in all front and side collision categories. Standard safety features on the new Camry Hybrid include driver and front passenger advanced airbags, driver and front passenger seat-mounted side airbags, front and rear seat side curtain airbags, and a driver's knee airbag. Other dynamic safety features include electronic brake-force distribution, vehicle dynamics integrated management, child-protector rear door locks, LATCH tethers on the outboard rear seating positions, a direct tire pressure monitoring system, an engine immobilizer, vehicle stability control, and traction control.
