Sensible and cost-effective, the 2010 Toyota Camry hybrid has a lot to offer you starting at only $26,150. This hybrid is actually faster than the base 4-cylinder Camry. And, besides being far better for fuel savings, it is only slightly more expensive than non-hybrid models - a rarity for any brand of automobile today.

The most impressive aspects concerning the 2010 Camry Hybrid are its excellent fuel economy, its outstanding near-zero emissions, a large and comfortable interior, spunky speed gains and stellar safety ratings. The very limited down side would be that the trunk is rather small.

New frontal styling graces the exterior of the 2010 Toyota Hybrid Camry. There's also a new panel of instruments and innovative upholstery comprised of silk proteins and synthetic fibers. The 2-mode gas-electric technology that drives these cars is what enables Toyota to offer them at such a modest price point. Most hybrid vehicles cost so much more than non-hybrid versions, for example the Honda Civic Hybrid, the saving in fuel costs is barely worth considering. Not true for the Camry Hybrid. You save big on these cars, at the pumps - and at the dealers.

Fuel economy ratings measure a combined 34 mpg (33/34 mpg city/highway). That's excellent considering that the combined power output rates at 187 horses from 2.4L engine and 40hp electric motor. The Camry Hybrid's powertrain is able to operate solely with its electric motor at low speeds and while coasting along at higher speeds. It also acts to make a noticeable difference when you stomp the accelerator to pass at higher speeds. The CVT transmission powers the front wheels.

You'll feel pleasantly isolated from all external stimuli as you cruise comfortably in the spacious cabin of your new 2010 Toyota Camry. It's quiet inside and surprisingly luxurious as well. The overall driving experience is engaging and instills confidence. When at the helm, you will certainly not feel limited in knowing that you are driving a machine designed to love the environment.

0 to 60 times are measured at 8.4 seconds - not bad at all considering this is not meant to be a race car. There's plenty of pep to excite you while simultaneously appeasing your sense of Green responsibility. Perfect 5-star safety ratings for all frontal and side-based crash tests were earned from the NHTSA, and the IIHS, by the 2010 Camry Hybrid from Toyota. Standard safety features are numerous and include loads of airbags, electronic stability control, anti-lock disc brakes and tire pressure monitoring.

Overall, the 2010 Toyota Camry Hybrid is an excellent choice for any environmentally responsible new car purchaser. Hybrid technology is being seriously integrated throughout all sectors of the automotive industry - and this new dual-mode hybrid powertrain offered by the Camry is leading the way to lower prices across the board. Enjoy a test drive in what very well may become your next vehicle.
