Toyota has two gigantic things in store for the Camry when the 2007 model year version of the car rolls out this coming summer : a total redesign and the supply of a hybrid engine. Already the best selling car in America, the Camry is certain to be overhauled and re-engineered. Let’s take a look at some of the changes booked for Toyota’s venerable model.

New Styling Cues – No-one has ever said that the Camry is a knock out when it comes to style. Regardless of its pedestrian look, the Camry has managed to take advantage of Toyota quality, price, and engineering to present a car that is clearly a best seller. Still, critics have customarily yawned at the Camry’s looks, but that will soon all change and dramtically at that. Borrowing some styling cues from Toyota’s Lexus line up of top end cars, the 2007 Camry is expected to delight motorists and critics alike. Witness the lately made over Toyota Avalon: what was a tasteless, a bland, full sized car has been changed into a sleek, luxurious sedan.

Time For A Hybrid – Toyota is riding the hybrid crest and it will, introduce hybrid technology into the Camry line up. Like all of the 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 sourced 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 six cylinder engines, but both will be redone enough to crank out extra hp without compromising on fuel economy.

The Camry’s chief rival over the last decade has been the Honda Accord. With a hybrid offering available and an improved appearance prepared the Camry is likely 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 simply a trend or something that will eventually 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 thirsty internal combustion engines. Toyota, for its part, continues to take advantage of this trend and the Camry is the latest vehicle in Toyota’s expanding arsenal to incorporate hybrid technology.
