Is the Camry's Chassis Low?
2 Answers
The Camry's chassis is not low. The ground clearance of the Camry is approximately 145mm, which is normal for sedans in its class. Below is some relevant information about the Camry: 1. Safety Features: The Camry is equipped with Toyota's Toyota Safety Sense, which includes the Pre-Collision System (PCS), Lane Departure Alert (LDA), Automatic High Beam (AHB), and Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC). 2. Monitoring Equipment: It features 12 different types of devices to monitor the driving environment, such as the Blind Spot Monitor (BSM), Rear Cross-Traffic Alert (RCTA), Panoramic View Monitor (PVM), as well as standard Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), Traction Control (TRC), and Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), providing driving assistance to users.
I've been driving a Camry as my daily commuter for many years, and the ground clearance is actually quite suitable—neither too high nor too low. When driving in the city, I rarely scrape the undercarriage against curbs or minor bumps. In suburban areas, it handles some rough patches just fine, unlike sports cars that often bottom out. The clearance is around 130 to 150 millimeters, which is standard for sedans. I've driven on mountain roads and felt the body stability was excellent, with well-controlled body roll and no major issues. If I had to point out a downside, it's that it might not feel as reassuring as an SUV on extremely rough roads, but for everyday use, it's perfectly fine. Toyota has designed it with a good balance, ensuring both comfort and practicality. Overall, the ground clearance feels just right—hassle-free and effortless.
