The curb weight of the 2019 Camry is 150kg. Here is some related information about the 2019 Camry: 1. Besides affecting fuel consumption, a car's weight also influences its stability at high speeds. Heavier cars tend to have higher stability at high speeds. If a car is too light, it may become unstable and prone to drifting when reaching certain speeds, posing safety risks. 2. The Camry is a B-segment sedan under GAC Toyota. In terms of dimensions, the 2019 Camry measures 4885*1840*1455mm (L*W*H). For powertrain options, the 2019 Camry comes with either a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, a 2.5L hybrid system, or a 2.5L naturally aspirated engine. Transmission choices include a CVT continuously variable transmission or an 8-speed automatic transmission.
Before purchasing the 2019 Camry, I also researched its weight. The weight of this car varies significantly depending on the configuration. The regular fuel version mostly weighs around 1.55 tons, while the hybrid version, with the addition of a battery and motor, can reach 1.62 tons. As someone who frequently drives long distances, the weight of the car noticeably affects the driving experience. For example, on the highway, a heavier car feels much more stable when overtaking or changing lanes compared to a lighter one, but in city traffic jams, the fuel consumption can be slightly higher by about half a liter. Compared to my neighbor's Accord, the Camry has a heavier chassis, resulting in less bumpiness over speed bumps, but the steering assist feels a bit heavier. I recommend test driving the car yourself before buying, especially paying attention to the starting condition when fully loaded, as weight directly affects the car's inertia performance and braking distance.
The weight of the 2019 Camry varies by model: the 2.0G is approximately 1,530 kg, the 2.5S sports version is 1,560 kg, and the hybrid version is around 1,615 kg. According to the parameter manual I checked, this weight is considered medium in its class. The Accord is 50 kg lighter, while the Passat is about 80 kg heavier. The vehicle weight has a direct impact on usage: tire wear is about 10% faster than lighter cars, the oil capacity is exactly 5 liters, but fuel consumption increases by about half a liter. The most annoying part is realizing during car washes that the door panels are much heavier than older models, though the closing sound does feel more solid and secure. Some in the modification scene remove the spare tire to reduce weight by 40 kg, but I wouldn't recommend doing that.
