Toyota has been known widely in the market for its efficiency in delivering high-performing and trusted cars. With its repeated launch of high-end cars, Toyota has acquired a firm stand in the competitive market, thereby matching the expectations of all its potential buyers. Toyota Camry had set out a breakthrough in the year 1983 and has come into being among several other powerful cars in the catalogue of 'most successful cars' lately. This midsize sedan is representative of a systematic progress in the launch of unequaled designs as well as attributes. Toyota has launched a hybrid version of Camry, which has become the most popular in the market and is known as Toyota Camry Hybrid.
The Camry Hybrid is categorized as a midsize sedan exclusively designed for lovers of space and luxury. This Hybrid version of the car has received a minor facelift. The car ranks the highest as far as the performance factor is concerned while considering the other models of its class including the hybrid version of Ford Fusion. According to a review done on the vehicle, the Toyota Camry Hybrid is par excellence in almost all the various aspects that make up a high-end car.

With a 105KW electric motor, the Sedan can exert more power. The combination of both the power engines helps the machine to exert 187 horsepower.

Despite of its drawbacks, Camry Hybrid has acquired a name among some of the best hybrid models by its loyal drivers. The fuel efficiency of Toyota Camry Hybrid surpasses all the standards specified by ATPZEV, which is popularly known as Advanced Technology Partial Zero Emission Vehicle.To entice its awaited customers, the car offers warranty coverage for up to 8 years or 100,000 miles.
