Standard equipment on the 2008 Camry Hybrid includes 16-inch all-season tires and alloy

wheels, four-wheel disc brakes with ABS, electronic brake force distribution, Brake Assist,

Vehicle Dynamics Integrated Management (a form of stability control that enhances braking and

steering in collision-avoidance manoeuvres), Vehicle Stability Control, and Traction Control.

Inside, the 2008 Camry Hybrid has standard dual-zone automatic climate control, a premium JBL

audio system with AM/FM/in-dash six-disc CD changer/MP3/WMA player plus audio auxiliary input

jack, Bluetooth capability, eight speakers and steering wheel-mounted audio system controls;

eight-way power driver's seat, leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob; average and

instant fuel economy display, outside temperature gauge, power windows, tilt and telescopic

steering wheel, electronic "Smart Key" with pushbutton start, cruise control, 60/40 fold-down

rear seatbacks, garage door opener, side airbags, curtain airbags, driver's knee airbag,

heated mirrors, and variable intermittent wipers.

The 2008 Camry Hybrid's gasoline-electric hybrid powertrain: a 2.4-litre four-cylinder engine,

continuously variable transmission, 105 kW electric motor/generator, electronic controller,

and 244-volt nickel-metal hydride battery pack behind the rear seat. The 2.4-litre engine

develops 147 horsepower at 6000 r.p.m. and 138 lb-ft of torque at 4,400 r.p.m., but combined

with the electric assist, those numbers jump to 187 hp and 199 lb-ft of torque. Much of that

torque is available between 0 and 1500 r.p.m., giving the Camry Hybrid better throttle

response than a standard four-cylinder Camry.

As a "full hybrid", the Camry Hybrid is capable of running on electricity only, gasoline

engine only, or both at the same time depending on power requirements. Generally, the car runs

on battery power at slow, city speeds or when coasting, and uses the gas engine and

battery/electric motor when accelerating. The gas engine kicks in automatically and almost

seamlessly. For those drivers interested in knowing when the car is running on electricity, a

real-time pictograph in the gauge cluster shows power distribution. When coasting or braking,

the Hybrid's regenerative brakes re-charge the battery, and this is also shown in the gauge

display. Under the right conditions, the engine will shut off automatically when "idling" at a

stop sign or traffic light, thereby saving fuel and reducing emissions.

The Camry Hybrid meets the most stringent exhaust emissions standards: California's Advanced

Technology Partial Zero Emissions Vehicle (AT-PZEV). PZEV means it is a Super Ultra Low

Emissions Vehicle (SULEV), meets a zero-fuel evaporative standard, a 240,000 km durability

demonstration, extended emissions system warranty, and has technology deemed to advance future

fuel-cell vehicles.


Bottom line: the Toyota Camry Hybrid provides big car ride and comfort, luxury car amenities and compact car fuel consumption. It's a car that allows you to treat yourself well without treating the environment badly.

  • my lovely car))))))

  • AMEN . I guess no one has oticed they are REDUCING the amount of electric assist these vehicals offer and stuffing a LARGER internal combustion engine under there,.

    Batteries are getting smaller.. less powerful and more expensive.. Lol The use of Lithium isn't gona help as much in range and power as a good Large bank of Nickle metal hydryde batteries..

    Chevron get off your ass and let the world use those patents you are sitting on.
