TOYOTA Camry 2011-2014 Photos, engines & full specs

When it was launched in 2011, the Toyota Camry was the best selling car on the American market for nine years.

Despite its not so much appealing look, it was chosen by customers for its reliability.

It was the seventh generation of the Camry on the U.S. soil and to emphasize its sporty character, it debuted on August 27th at the NASCAR Sprint Cup series. It was a clear sign that the car-maker needed a younger generation behind the wheel of any Camry.

On the outside, the Camry tried to look better and more contemporary. For those who wished one with a more sporty style, there was the SE trim level with a sportier front bumper, side sills, and grille. The rest of the range was daring than before, but not too aggressive.

Inside, the car-maker continued its trend in modernizing the cabin. It updated the infotainment unit but kept that simplicity for any Camry with a clean dashboard and center stack. The instrument cluster featured the same layout for the dials. The fit and finishes were good and the materials used were decent. Like the generation it replaced, it offered a decent amount of room in the back.

For the engine compartment, the Camry was offered with a choice of two gasoline and one hybrid version. The base model featured an inline-four unit with a 2.4-liter displacement. The top model was still the 3.5-liter V6 mated to a standard 6-speed auto. The hybrid version featured a 2.5-liter Atkinson.
