What is the emission standard for the 7th-generation Camry?
2 Answers
The 7th-generation Camry complies with the China IV emission standard. Below is a detailed introduction to the 7th-generation Camry: 1. The Camry's dimensions are 4825mm in length, 1820mm in width, and 1485mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2775mm and a track width of 1575mm (front)/1560mm (rear). Compared to the previous generation, the length and width have slightly increased, while the wheelbase and track width have seen more significant improvements, with increases of 55mm, 30mm, and 25mm respectively. Combined with more efficient space utilization, this gives the Camry a more spacious and comfortable interior than its predecessor. 2. The Camry's cabin design is open and spacious, with significantly improved front and rear seating areas, allowing both the driver and passengers to stretch their legs comfortably. The center console and seats are specially designed to create a strong sense of space. The newly designed four-spoke steering wheel is adjustable in height and tilt, offering a sporty yet comfortable feel. The instrument panel features multiple information displays, keeping all driving data within easy reach. The streamlined design from the center console to the gearshift panel and from the center console to the door interiors is clean and smooth, exuding elegance and freshness.
As an automotive enthusiast, I know the seventh-generation Camry was produced from 2011 to 2017, with its emission standards primarily determined by the production year: early models from 2011-2014 mostly complied with China IV (National Phase 4 emissions), while later versions from 2015-2017 typically upgraded to China V (Phase 5). This change occurred because Chinese policies around 2015 promoted stricter standards. China V vehicles offer better environmental performance and have advantages in urban driving restrictions. I've driven a friend's car—a 2012 China IV model—which had smooth and reliable power but relatively higher fuel consumption. In contrast, the upgraded China V engines optimized the fuel system to reduce emission pollution. If you're considering buying a used one, check the production date on the vehicle registration certificate to confirm the emission standard; otherwise, you might face restrictions in some first-tier cities. During maintenance, pay attention to cleaning the emission system to extend its lifespan. Overall, the seventh-generation Camry is a transitional model with excellent cost performance.
