How Many Generations of Camry Are There?
2 Answers
The Camry has a total of eight generations. The introduction and the role of the transmission are as follows: Introduction: The exterior is stylish and imposing, with a strong sense of premium quality. The cabin atmosphere is harmonious, youthful, and tech-savvy, with impeccable craftsmanship and materials. The front seats feature 8-way electric adjustment, paired with a telescopic steering wheel for an excellent seating position. The groundbreaking near-flat rear floor provides great convenience for rear passengers. Various control buttons in the cabin are rationally placed and easy to use, with top-notch ergonomics. The powertrain is highly refined, making driving effortless. Role of the Transmission: To change the gear ratio, interrupt power transmission for neutral, and enable reverse driving.
I remember the first-generation Camry was launched in 1982 with a boxy design, and now it has evolved to the eighth generation. I've driven three generations of Camry, and my favorite is the 2006 XV40 model with its 2.4L engine paired with a 5AT transmission—it was exceptionally smooth, and the trunk could fit three large suitcases. Last year, the latest eighth generation switched to the TNGA platform, significantly improving the driving feel, though the interior space became slightly smaller, something I noticed when installing a child safety seat. The hybrid version, introduced from the sixth generation, is particularly fuel-efficient—a colleague's hybrid can travel over 900 kilometers on a full tank.
