What is the maximum wading depth of the Camry?
1 Answers
According to official information, the maximum wading depth of the Camry is 14 cm. Common tire specifications include 235/45R18 and 205/65R16, with body lengths of 4900mm and 4855mm. The car is equipped with an 8-speed automatic transmission, CVT continuously variable transmission (simulating 10 gears), or E-CVT continuously variable transmission. The body structure is a 4-door, 5-seater sedan. Maximum wading depth refers to the deepest water a vehicle can safely pass through. Generally, the maximum wading depth for sedans does not exceed 30 cm, while SUVs can handle deeper water, though it's best not to exceed 50 cm. Among common models, the GAC Trumpchi GS8 has a maximum wading depth of 30 cm, the Audi A4 has 32 cm, the Volkswagen Sagitar has 30 cm, the Land Rover Range Rover has 90 cm, the Jeep Compass has 48 cm, and the Highlander has 45 cm. SUVs clearly surpass sedans in maximum wading depth. Generally, when driving through water, vehicle owners should take different measures based on the water depth and the vehicle's characteristics, as follows: If the water reaches the exhaust pipe height, it is relatively safe. Even if water enters the exhaust pipe, the pressure inside is sufficient to expel it. As long as the engine is not turned off in the water, water will not flow back into the vehicle. If the water reaches the door frame height, it becomes more dangerous. The vehicle's circuits, electronic components, and sensors are mostly located at the bottom, increasing the risk of short circuits and damage to critical electrical components, which may prevent the car from starting. If the water reaches the air intake height, it is extremely dangerous. Driving directly into such water can cause the engine to stall immediately, leading to permanent damage or rendering the engine unusable.
