“If at all we can get close to the great electric vehicle dream, it has to be through the hybrid route. Hybrids are of two kinds, mild and hard. Hard hybrids offer a lot of value and the all-new up market TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID ELECTRIC is the right example of a perfect hard hybrid. Typically for every 1000km you drive in this vehicle around 500 odd kms are run using electric power.

EXTERIOR DESIGN AND FEATURES
This new Toyota Camry is very sleek and good looking. Starting with the smartly designed front grille to the LED headlamps, this one is a stunner. The headlamps are dusk sensing LED projector headlamps with auto leveling. Then there are LED DRLs and follow me home function. The front fog lamps too are LED.
The rear of the vehicle too is well designed with a combination lamp that comes with LED brake lights. There is also a rear fog lamp. The car is fitted with 18 inches multi spoke alloy wheels. The ORVMs or the Outside Rear View Mirrors are electrically adjusted and come with turn indicators. There are memory settings for these ORVMs which are hydrophilic in nature. Hydrophilic means having a tendency to mix with, dissolve in, or be wetted by water. This implies that when rain droplets fall on the mirrors, they do not accumulate on the glass thereby hindering the view. The car also has rain sensing wipers.
