What transmission does the 6th-generation Camry have?
2 Answers
6th-generation Camry is equipped with 4-speed automatic, 4-speed manual/automatic, and 6-speed manual/automatic transmissions. The transmission, also known as a gearbox, is an automotive component used to alter the speed and torque from the engine, and can fix or change the gear ratio between the output and input shafts. The transmission consists of a gear transmission mechanism and a control mechanism, and can be categorized into stepped, continuously variable, and integrated types, featuring functions such as enabling reverse driving, interrupting power transmission, and altering gear ratios. The 6th-generation Camry is a mid-sized 4-door 5-seater sedan under GAC Toyota, with dimensions of 4825mm in length, 1820mm in width, and 1485mm in height, a wheelbase of 2775mm, and a top speed of 196 kilometers per hour.
My old sixth-generation Camry has been running for ten years, the 2.0L version comes with the older 4AT transmission. Although there's a slight jerk when shifting gears, it's incredibly durable and perfectly adequate for city commuting. The 2.4L models with 5AT are much smoother, and back then the high-end 3.5L V6 engine had the best transmission, directly equipped with 6AT, keeping the RPM very stable on highways. Important reminder for everyone: the used car market is a mixed bag now, always open the engine bay to check the transmission nameplate. Last time I saw someone selling an old car with a modified transmission as original.
