FAQ The 2007 Toyota Camry is a much improved sedan that should please most sedan buyers, though the four-cylinder engine could provide some more power. There’s also a hybrid version that offers a combined 37 mpg.

Is the 2007 Toyota Camry better than the outgoing model? You bet. The suspension has been tuned for more road feel, the car is handsomely restyled, and the interior feels larger and constructed of more refined materials. It is simply an excellent upgrade to one of America’s most popular cars.

What are the worst things about the 2007 Toyota Camry? The four-cylinder engine is weaker than some in its class, feeling as though it struggles under the Camry’s weight and making the four-cylinder version not much fun to drive. The hybrid model is excellent, but will be offered as a highly-priced trim, making this fuel-efficient powertrain unavailable to those who can’t afford all the extras. Will someone please build a hybrid for the masses?

What are the best things about the 2007 Toyota Camry? The overall package is superb. From a slew of standard safety features to increased room, performance and a restyled interior and exterior, the Camry should be a solid value.
