2024 ทำไม camry hybrid ร น 2024 ใช e20 ได

An all-new version of the popular mid-sized Toyota Camry sedan has been revealed online ahead of its launch here next year, with the new model featuring an exclusively hybrid-electric (HEV) powertrain.

Due in Australia in the second half of 2024 the ninth-generation Camry features a stylish new design and hi-tech interior but will ditch the current four-cylinder combustion engine option in favour of a 2.5-litre, four-cylinder petrol equipped with Toyota’s fifth-generation hybrid system.

The decision to cease offering the152kW/243Nm non-hybrid model seems something of a fait accompli, given most buyers prefer the fuel-efficient hybrid option, which sips unleaded at a more frugal 4.2L/100km average versus the non-hybrid’s 6.8L/100km.

A statement from Toyota in October said that in the nine months to September 30, new Camry deliveries totalled 7,130 vehicles – of which 6,490 were hybrid variants.

Promising a more controllable and engaging drive experience the new Camry features a lighter and more compact electric motor that produces more power than the current model’s hybrid system.

Toyota has not yet released detailed technical information on the new model, including power, torque and fuel consumption, but the new HEV system is claimed to reduce engine revs at lower speeds and increase power from the traction battery, delivering stronger acceleration and improved response.

As with previous generations, the new Camry will be front-wheel drive only with Toyota promising improved handling and stability thanks to retuned suspension, as well as enhanced ride comfort.

Stylistically, the 2024 Camry features a sleeker, more athletic look, marked by a new ‘hammerhead’ grille, flanked by slim LED headlights, while daytime running lamps and taillights provide a distinctive light signature. Wheel sizes will be 17-inch or 18-inch alloys, depending on which of the three model grades are chosen.

Also grade dependant will be a 7-inch or 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, and an 8-inch or 12.3-inch multimedia touchscreen, with model differentiation further underscored by different materials and trims in the redesigned interior.

New convenience features include a standard smart key with push-button start, dual-zone automatic climate control and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility.

An optional Intelligent Assistant feature allows drivers to use simple phrases to have the car automatically perform various tasks such as adjusting audio controls, changing cabin temperatures, and searching for directions.

The top-of-the-range Camry will include a head-up display, JBL premium audio, leather-accented interior, paddle shifters, Qi wireless charging pad, panoramic view monitor, and front and rear parking assist with automatic braking.

Toyota will also continue the roll-out of its connected services technology with the new Camry including an emergency SOS button, 24/7 automatic collision notification, and stolen-vehicle tracking.

Standard safety features will include blind-spot monitor, rear cross-traffic alert, pre-collision system with pedestrian detection, full-speed dynamic radar cruise control, lane-departure alert with steering assist, lane-trace assist, road-sign assist and automatic high beam.

Toyota Australia Vice President Sales, Marketing and Franchise Operations, Sean Hanley, said the global adoption of hybrid-electric technology for Camry reflected overwhelming consumer demand, including in Australia.

“Moving exclusively to a hybrid Camry clearly signals the ongoing success of Toyota’s multi-pathway approach to helping customers lower their carbon footprint through electrification while leaving no one behind,” Mr Hanley said.

Toyota has not yet released pricing but based on recent trends with the brands new and upgraded models it’s safe to assume a bump of a few thousand on the current Camry, which ranges from $34,320 for the entry-level Ascent petrol to $36,820 for the Ascent hybrid and $50,320 for the range-topping SL hybrid.

News of the new models comes less than a month after Toyota Australia paused order-taking for current-generation Camry hybrid variants due to high demand, with the company saying at the time that wait times remained above two years.

Although once one of Toyota Australia’s biggest selling models, the Camry has fallen victim here as well as overseas to the rising popularity of SUVs. So much so that sales of the Camry in its Japanese home market will end in late 2023 after 43 years due to poor sales.

Here in Australia, the Camry remains a popular choice with fleets and taxi operators but its year-to-date sales of 8,055 units are well off its peak and the Telsa Model 3 has usurped it as Australia’s most popular medium sedan, the battery electric model’s 15,718 sales at the end of October almost double that of the Camry.
