Toyota Camry Hybrid Video Review – Kelley Blue Book

Tuesday, February 23rd, 2010

FOR PRICING & SPECS ON THIS CAR VISIT:

http://www.kbb.com/KBB/NewCars/Toyota_Camry.aspx

Toyota Camry Hybrid. The Toyota Camry Hybrid offers the same roomy interior and sterling reputation as the rest of the Camry line, but in a greener, more eco-friendly package. With fuel economy figures in the mid 30s, the Camry Hybrid is certainly easy on the gas, and can actually operate solely on electric power in stop and go traffic and low-speed around-town jaunts. Bigger than Toyotas other hybrid car, the Prius, the Camry Hybrid not only offers a wider passenger cabin, but also more power and the security of a trunk. With 10 years experience building hybrid cars, one might assume Toyota would have a lock on the market. But stiff competition is always present, and the Camry Hybrid must now do battle with some equally impressive nameplates such as the Ford Fusion Hybrid and Chevrolet Malibu Hybrid.

http://www.kbb.com

Chrysler EcoVoyager Concept Car.

For longer trips, a hydrogen fuel cell kicks in to charge the batteries, upping range to more than 300 miles. The entire propulsion system is located beneath the car’s floor, facilitating the car’s unique proportions. Interior highlights include an LCD display that allows the front passenger to watch a movie without distracting the driver.
