How Much Does the New Toyota Camry Weigh?
2 Answers
The curb weight of the new Camry is 1550kg, which aligns with the standard for a mid-size sedan. Regarding vehicle weight: Sports cars are generally lighter than sedans, and sedans are lighter than SUVs. Vehicle weight is one of the factors affecting fuel consumption—the heavier the car, the greater the engine load, leading to higher fuel consumption. Regarding dimensions: The new Camry measures 4885×1840×1455mm in length, width, and height. In terms of powertrain: The new Camry is available with a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, a 2.5L hybrid system, and a 2.5L naturally aspirated engine. For transmission options: The new Camry offers a CVT continuously variable transmission and an 8-speed automatic transmission with manual mode.
Last time when helping a regular customer inspect a car, I specifically noted the weight data of this generation Camry. The hybrid AWD top trim model weighs nearly 1.7 tons when empty, equivalent to carrying three grown men. The 2.5L engine upfront plus the motor and battery pack add considerable weight - you can feel the suspension sagging with just two extra suitcases in the trunk. Opting for the FWD gasoline version could save about 100kg, though choosing metallic paint adds a few more pounds. When moving house, loading a washing machine in this car felt noticeably more strenuous than in a friend's Accord, but it does feel considerably more stable at highway speeds.
