2012 Toyota Camry Hybrid

Toyota Camry Hybrid

Driving the new 2012 Toyota Camry Hybrid is almost like driving a new 2012 Camry gasoline. Now I do not expect to take my word on this, I want to issue a challenge. When the 2012 Toyota Camry rolls into dealerships in November, taking both cars out for a test drive. But when you slip behind the wheel, you do not know which version of the car you are testing.

After driving both cars are willing to bet large sums, not, well, a little money to be exact, if you are not among the most discerning of drivers, have found little or no difference difference between the experience of driving the two cars.

Camry is the American best-selling car nine of the last 10 years, but the competition is brutal with Ford, Hyundai, Kia and Volkswagen also made significant inroads with their voice medium. Regarding the Camry Hybrid, took a beating. Introduced in 2006 as a 2007 model, has quickly become the second best seller behind the Prius. At the end of 2010, dropped to fourth best-selling hybrid. For the first six months of this year, slipped to eighth place, with the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid and Ford Fusion Hybrid the big winners.

Toyota believes that the seventh generation Camry will continue his series to be the bestseller. He is also convinced that the 2012 Camry Hybrid sales double in his first year to about 50,000 cards per claim. Here is why.

More power and more MPG

The 2012 Camry Hybrid has the latest incarnation of Toyota's Hybrid Synergy Drive. The teams of the hybrid system of a new four-cylinder engine, a small high torque electric motor and nickel-metal hydride. Power continues to be directed to the front wheels through a continuously variable transmission of the transaxle.

The first half of the transmission Camry hybrid is a new version of the Atkinson cycle Camry base 2.5-liter four-cylinder. (A Atkinson cycle engine provides the power output a bit "in exchange for better fuel efficiency and emission reduction.) The engine produces 156 horsepower, nine more than 2.4 liters in 2011 Camry Hybrid. The greatest movement and more efficient combustion increases torque to 156 lb.-ft., 16 more than the previous model.
The second half is a 105-kilowatt electric motor and a review of the 245-volt battery. The battery consists of 34 modules nickel metal hydride, each containing six 1.2-volt cells. Although smaller stores and offers more battery power.

Combined power of the hybrid powertrain is 200 horsepower, a gain of 13 horsepower over the previous version. (Toyota does not publish a net torque of the hybrid, although it mentions only the electric motor runs at 199 pounds-feet.)

Fuel consumption for the Camry hybrid generation ago-31 mpg city/35 highway/33 combined was overshadowed by the Ford Fusion Hybrid and Hyundai Sonata Hybrid. But experience shows the 2012 model Toyota petrol-electric hybrid technology, offering odds of 43/39 mpg EPA fuel economy, with a combined average of 41 mpg. This is a huge increase of 12 mpg in town and an impressive gain of 8 mpg for combined driving cycles, the numbers that elevate the Camry Hybrid once again to claim the title of most fuel efficient sedan average size.

So how does the automaker to produce a car with more power and more miles per gallon?

Weight is a major enemy of fuel economy, engineers and the reduction of about 250 pounds from the new hybrid. This includes cutting the size and weight of the battery.

Aerodynamics plays an important role in fuel economy and 2012 Camry Hybrid achieves a remarkable 0.27 coefficient of drag (Cd), the wind resistance. (The Toyota Prius has recorded 0.25 cd.) To reach this number, aerodynamic underbody coating was a strategic location and the side mirrors and rear light lenses are built of small fins that create a buffer zone around the car , helping the vehicle from sliding into the air. This trick was shot by the aerodynamic design of the Toyota Formula One days.


Under the hood, the engine is equipped with a type of valve train roller rocker and an oil pump output variable that reduces the internal friction, stimulate the economy. Another strategy on fuel economy is a recirculating water cooled exhaust gas recirculation (EGR). This function increases fuel consumption by reducing engine pumping losses. In addition, accessory drive belts have been removed, replaced by motorized power accessories, including air conditioning compressor, water pump and power steering pump.

Software engineers are credited for helping to increase mpg, improving the management of the hybrid system, hybrid electronic sensors to determine precisely this mixture of gas and electric propulsion the balance of power and better fuel economy. And finally, Toyota said lower rolling resistance also boost fuel economy.

External

As petrol models, the Camry Hybrid 2012 ran on a platform, even though I spend, the dimensions length, width and height are in progress. The result is a family car in search of, though the sedan designers lying in the new sheet bumper against bumper.

Except for those who work at a Toyota dealership, most people when they see the new car does not say, "Wow, this is the new Camry." And there will surely be a crowd of critics who criticize Toyota for their conservative overhaul, pointing to the Hyundai Sonata, with its swoopy lines and creases sharp. But their livelihood does not depend on the sales of the Camry.

Toyota says that 50 percent of Camry buyers will be new current Camry owners. With a projection of 360 000 years before the sale-50, 000 hybrids, Nissan wisely or risk alienating many loyal customers with polarizing style. Of course, the fashion plates of the seventh generation Camry has more than one relationship to the little previous model, the style, while it did not shake or strike, it's clean, beautiful and safe.

The most notable change is in the front, where a new chrome grille sweeps a refreshed headlamp design. Under a wide air intake flanked by fog lamps chrome trapezoidal niches. Fools the eye and the design gives the impression of greater width. At the rear, chrome taillights were removed and replaced with a more curved design that wraps around the rear quarter and extends into the trunk.

There is little difference between the Camry Hybrid with gasoline. Small hybrid maps adorn the front fenders and trunk. The front Toyota emblem has a blue rather than black, borrowing a design element of the Prius.

Internal

Toyota received feedback about the hard drive, cheap plastic interior in search of the previous Camry. The 2012 Camry cabin is well appointed and is now on an equal footing with competitors. Soft-touch plastic on the dashboard is given a more elegant look, fabric and seams genuine. Soft texture are also used on the door armrests above the doors and center console and knee pads on both sides of the console.


Exclusive interior design touches distinguish the 2012 Camry Camry Hybrid from other models. The hybrid "Metal Tech-grain" trim is a combination of a black facia with brushed aluminum highlights and light gray cloth seats, or ivory. Hybrid is unique in the instrument cluster dials with three fuel economy over similar indicator, the power flow display graphically shows the flow of energy, cruising range and fuel economy in real time.

The seats are comfortable all day, not just in the front row. Seats are beautiful buttocks Camry parts anatomy, important in a car with a range of over 650 miles. Designers redesigned the internal components to make it more spacious, with large gains in rear seat leg and hip room.

There are also more luggage space. The trunk-mounted battery has been reduced in size and DC-DC has been moved from the area under the trunk lid. That increasing the loading room to 13.1 cubic feet, a gain of 2.5 cubic meters. For long articles, the right rear seat back folds forward.

On The Road

The introduction of Toyota press took place on the eastern slopes of the Cascade Mountains of Washington State, about three miles from the small town of Rosyln, setting the 1990, a few series' outraged TV , Northern Exposure. We were offered several routes of transmission which included a wonderful two-lane black top that has encouraged the building of two way back, near Interstate 5 and a walk through the town of Cle Elum.

The 2012 Camry Hybrid is more like V-6 engine with four cylinders in line. Toyota says the scoot 0-60 mph is 7.6 seconds, halfway between the time of the gas V-6 6.8 seconds and 8.6 seconds for the four cylinders. The throttle response is almost perfect, perfect for the road on ramps, as I discovered when an 18-wheeler was the motivation faster than I thought. At the same time, the machine is smooth as silk under conditions of low speed.


The transition from the gasoline engine to electric motor and vice versa is no longer "almost seamless" is flawless, not pleasure, no vibration, no, nada. Regarding the eccentric, almost brick like the feel of regenerative braking of the hybrid above, no longer exists. Brake pedal feel is the very essence Camry and very simple.

In terms of handling, the Camry is more than competent and free of defects and totally predictable. It corners of electric power steering has good idea and the city center and offers a decent driver feedback.

But the Camry is best known for their ride quality. A stiffer body structure and changes to the suspension of all independents provide a soft feel and consistent, making it ideal for long trips and commuting.

The cabin noise intrusion plays a role in the conduct of the perceived quality. Toyota made virtually no wind noise in hybrid with a solid door and the area rocker seals, the optimal placement of sound insulation, foam roof, pillars and door openings, and used to shield acoustic windshield glass.

All this translates into control, balanced and comfortable four-door sedan family. And then there's fuel economy, which is the Camry Hybrid. I drove three relays on a road that was a duplicate of my wife every day commuting 15 miles by "a little over three miles down the road and the balance of the city and rural roads with limits speed of 25 to 40 mph. Hybrid In 2011, playing the instrument panel was 44.5 mpg, the hybrid model produces 2012 THE 49.7 mpg.

My third trip was in the XLE model hybrid, yes, there are two hybrids in 2012 (see below). By using the Eco mode, which maximizes fuel economy in all driving conditions, and the new EV mode that keeps the vehicle with electric drive only up to 25 mph, the reading was 58.5 mpg. A long drive 54 miles in the XLE which included just over 40 miles on Interstate registered 48.2 mpg.

All issues of fuel economy, far exceed the EPA estimates, and for a couple of reasons. First of all, I'm sure he was more judicious in the management of fuel economy than EPA protocols. Second, EPA does not consider as Eco and EV estimates of fuel economy. Or, as EPA says, "its fuel economy may vary".

More car for less money
For the first time, the Camry Hybrid will be offered in different trim levels, LE and XLE. The Camry hybrid has a sticker price of $ 25.900 LE, which is $ 1,150 less than the outgoing model. And it's not a stripper model. Standard features include remote keyless entry with pushbutton start, power windows, locks and mirrors, cruise control, temperature control, dual-zone automatic, tilt / telescoping steering wheel and audio system with Bluetooth and USB / iPod connectivity.

Step-up to the XLE and the base price of $ 27.400 a decrease of $ 800 compared to last year's model with the update package. The additional $ 1,500 for the XLE adds a power driver seat, a stereo with touchscreen and alloy wheels of 17 inches.

A blind spot warning system is optional on the XLE is a JBL audio system, two separate systems of navigation and multimedia system Entune Toyota. Entune includes applications such as OpenTable, MovieTickets.com, and so you can book a restaurant or buying movie tickets and iheartradio offering several streaming radio stations across the country.

The average age of Camry hybrid owners is 64 and it seems that it would be more likely to have a Jitterbug cell phone to a smartphone, which is necessary for Entune. For baby boomers of the hip, the applications are free, but data for smart phones will cost you time.

Completion of the Camry Hybrid CV are all biggies when it comes to security systems standard. For active safety, Toyota Star Safety System includes stability control, antilock disc brakes and traction control. Passive safety features include 10-passenger airbags, head protection in side-curtain airbags for driver and front passenger knee airbags and front torso to protect the outboard rear side airbags mounted in the seats.

The Competition
Comparing with the Camry Hybrid Ford Fusion Hybrid Hyundai Sonata Hybrid and reveals the competition is fierce among the three. The base price is $ 25.900 Camry, stickers for $ 25,795 Sonata and the Fusion is priced at $ 28.600. But at the pump, the Camry is the clear winner, outperforming the fuel economy of 8 mpg in the city Sonata and the merger of two miles per gallon.

New hybrid car buyers have no attachment to a brand spend some time "to determine which of the three previous years is good for them. For fans of Toyota, however, is almost obvious: The 2012 Camry Hybrid offers plenty of power, excellent interior, lots of features enough room for five adults and then there's fuel economy.

The 2012 Camry will probably once again the best selling car in U.S., but when the numbers are counted, do not be surprised if the Camry rack up a total of more than 50,000 of the automaker's projecting.

Honda Civic Hybrid 2012

Although the standard, the ninth generation Honda Civic on the road almost without fervor, the small car icon became more comfortable, more advanced and easier to live with as it matures. As it did with conventional model Honda has made a significant number of improvements to the Civic Hybrid 2012. Moreover, like the non-hybrid Civic, Honda has taken a cautious approach, and the amount of change to something to revolution.

More importantly for the year 2012, the third generation hybrid internal combustion engines now moves 1.5 liters and produces 90 horsepower and 97 lb.-ft. of torque, three horses less, but eight pound-feet of the previous car 1.3 liter four. Sandwiched between the engine and a continuously variable automatic transmission is a powerful electric motor power which adds 23 and 78 lb-ft to the composition, lighter and more powerful battery behind the rear seat is using chemistry to lithium instead of nickel-metal hydride batteries. The combined power remains at 110, but the couple up to four foot-pounds at 127.

Honda says the electric motor alone can power the vehicle up to 43 miles per hour, but along 600 miles of mixed driving, we've never heard of the passing car without the gasoline engine works. Pressing the "ECON" on the dashboard is a "while relaxing on the accelerator, recalibrate power systems for maximum efficiency, and force you to putt around as if he were half dead.


With a fully charged battery and 27 pounds less to carry than the previous Civic Hybrid, we tested the new vehicle reaches 60 mph in 10.1 seconds and run the quarter mile in 17.7, pleasant, but even better 0.7 and 0.6 seconds respectively.

Also consumption ratings of 40 mpg city and jump into the 43 on the highway 44/44. More aggressive than normal driving cycles, for us, captured an average of 37 miles per gallon, a decrease in the observed 40 mpg we saw from the previous model. But driving with confidence, and the real world of cancellation must be low in the 40's. The best C-segment cars conventionally powered Civic can deliver tangible results, not too far from the tip of the Civic Hybrid. We net 39 miles per gallon in mixed driving 1000 km and no nonsense hypermiling Chevrolet Cruze Eco [November 2011].

As expected, the Civic Hybrid is a very dynamic vehicle with wheels 15 inch wheels with low rolling resistance that limit membership to only 0.77 g allows 196 meters before stopping amazing to go from 70 mph. The CVT has a sport mode "S", which has higher speeds for better throttle response, but also exaggerates the buzz gross motor load. In addition, regenerative braking are difficult to modulate Grabby, numbness-yet-quick electric steering makes frequent adjustments at high speeds, and the integration of electricity and gas is less smooth for some time.

 
Like all Civic sedans, the new hybrid has a more spacious interior, with three extra inches of room to move in front and about two inches of legroom in the rear. In combination with its high emissions, the cabin feels airy, and many hard plastics are better than before.

Niggles include front seats with lumbar support, and a continuous series of small buttons on the center console, apparently designed to be operated by the fingers of fairies.

The redesign of the conservative HONDA Civic Hybrid bridge and futuristic, with minor changes, including a different grille, aluminum wheels, fog with blue accents, and LED taillights.

From $ 24 820, the premium for the hybrid is about $ 3,500 more than it refers equipped Civic EX sedan. Our test vehicle called me on top of $ 27 520, leather seats and navigation. That's money Toyota Prius and Honda Insight hybrid thousands more. And while the new Civic Hybrid has slightly reduced the gap with the fuel economy of Toyota, the Prius is 50 mpg overall EPA is still far. And with the continuous improvement of traditional gasoline engines in recent years, the Civic Hybrid is in a precarious situation to arrive, and the relative simplicity and economy of fuel system suction traditional C-segment, or the stratospheric EPA numbers bothers Toyota

TOYOTA Yaris Hybrid

 

Launched last year, the new Toyota Yaris is available in petrol, diesel and, from June, gasoline / electric hybrid. When we tested the new car back in August, we decided that, although it was quite comfortable, was not there in the Parthenon designing small cars. Impressive, though, Toyota design philosophy of "Genius" has allowed engineers to shoehorn hybrid system much changed under the hood and the rear seats, so there is space in the cabin or the boot volume , pain in the choice of gasoline / electric Yaris.Compared to the Prius, the Yaris Hybrid System is 440 pounds (20 percent) less. There are two new engines in the system, which reduce the size and mass of the hybrid transaxle. The electronics of the gasoline engine, transmission and power under the hood, and a new battery smaller and lighter is mounted in collaboration with the tank under the rear seats.In the cabin, there are a handful of changes: a Prius-style "Instrumentation" which shows the energy flow in the powertrain, cutting a blue shift to electronic touch screen with Toyota light blue and pale a couple of extra buttons close by the shift lever for Echo mode and electric vehicles.Until you are on a traffic light Grand Prix, he fled from a time in silence using only the battery, and has a range of 1.2 EV miles. Weighs about 20 percent higher than normal gasoline Yaris, instead, so that the gasoline engine is pushed into the life fast enough to maintain performance.You can guess the weight, too, with a sense of direction a little heavy "and manipulation, but it should be agile enough for most owners and control of the damping feels positive and roll well contained. Management intends to make a lot of twirling, but it is well calibrated for use in the city. Toyota engineers have discussed the control of motor speed to reduce the ripple effect that afflicts so elastic that the Prius. By limiting the acceleration torque and the amount of overshoot / braking effect, tried to make the motor speed more accurately corresponds to the speed. On our short drive, it seemed as if they had a partial success, and there is a trick to keep quiet and refined.
The price is, of course, the key to making this call technology for consumers.When it goes on sale in June, will cost around £ 15,000. This is roughly the same as a 1.4 liter diesel Yaris with a continuously variable transmission, and against undercuts rival Honda Jazz hybrid to be well over £ 1,000. Toyota calculates the hybrid will occupy about 20 percent of all sales of the Yaris, but is it true?

Didier Leroy, head of Toyota Motor Europe, said that customers who are more than 15,500 kilometers per year over three years, the hybrid will be cheaper than diesel. What is not said is how you stand compared to gasoline models. You will need to do a lot of miles on Yaris hybrid to justify the price and how the majority of customers are less than 10,000 miles a year in this class of car, the benefits are likely to be seen by a mileage high rather than just more.

2012 Honda CR-Z hybrid sport car

 
2012 Honda CR-Z
It is also a hybrid car to be a sports car? The answer is: it depends on what your expectations when it comes to hybrid fuel consumption, and how you define sport as applied to cars.

Two seats 2012 Honda CR-Z covers unchanged since its launch last year. Designed with indices, including those of Sports Honda CR-X of the 80 and 90, the CR-Z is both sporty and a hybrid. The result is a poor application of each. Hybrid-side, semi-electric other goods Honda hybrid approach when it comes to consumption, and the CR-Z, with an automatic transmission is 35 mpg highway with 37 mpg city/39 mpg and together. Although these numbers are good enough to place the CR-Z hybrid seventh in the list in 2012 EPA fuel economy, are far from the numbers that drive the Toyota Prius from 51 cities and 48 highways. In addition, when equipped with a six-speed manual transmission - manual transmission can define sport - the CR-Z drops by two notches with a score of 31/37/34.

And speaking of sports, mind you, there is the letter "y" after sports, we're not talking about a sports car here.

If a style of a car is part of the definition of sport, the CR-Z certainly gets high marks. If fast is included in the equation, then a 0 to 60 mph in 8.5 seconds, the time I get a little 'short. Perhaps the manipulation is an important ingredient for a sports car like speed, and this is where the CR-Z is playful and fun to drive factor is evident.

Honda CR-Z
The auditors that the 2012 Honda CR-Z is the most powerful car of the hybrid market, but warn buyers that are not available the most fuel efficient and spacious.

The Honda CR-Z is more practical and frivolous. It has excellent performance for a hybrid, but its qualities are low fuel economy for a hybrid, and some gases that are affordable small cars more fuel efficient. It is also the unique hybrid that can seat two people. Testers say that combined with poor rear visibility, these defects can make the 2012 Honda CR-Z is difficult to live.

Honda has tried to do a lot with the 2012 Honda CR-Z. The automotive press agrees that the CR-Z is a good attempt, but I doubt that the automaker has created a hybrid mesh high fuel consumption ratings and sports performance seamlessly. With these factors in mind, the CR-Z is best suited for buyers in the market for a hybrid with good performance, but do not give a lower fuel economy rating and without rear seats.

Other cars to consider
Outside The Funky Mini Cooper is for customers who are considering the futuristic CR-Z and his skills as a great handling and ample power. While Cooper has better performance than the CR-Z, his courage, only gas fuel economy powertrain lower average. If you are willing to pay a "little extra for Cooper, keep in mind that can accommodate up to four, but has less cargo space.

The Toyota Prius has the highest rating fuel economy of a hybrid car on the market, but his notes are impressive cost because the service is interesting and boring. But if you want to save money at the gas pump, excellent fuel economy, "the Prius is the perfect choice. Five seats and more cargo space are additional bonuses.

Details: 2012 Honda CR-Z
The CR-Z is available in the database, EX and EX with navigation models. There is only one update for the CR-Z 2012 model with black fabric seat is available on models with black exterior.

Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid Review

 



Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid Review 
The 2012 Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid SUV is rank 7 out of 8 high cost. This ranking is based on our analysis of 40 published studies and test drives of the Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid and our analysis of data reliability and security.

Reviewers Say That this model of Chevrolet Hybrid combination of internal space, towing capability and fuel economy can not be beat, with its good properties don't come cheap.

The Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid and its cousin company, the GMC Yukon Hybrid and the Cadillac Escalade Hybrid, the names are only in town when it comes to full-size hybrid SUV. The Tahoe Hybrid is the fuel of the most efficient vehicle in its class, and good fuel economy does not come at the expense of reduced towing capacity. It has a ton of standard features such as luxury tri-zone automatic climate control worldwide, navigation and a rearview camera. And with eight seatbelts, CA is more people than any other hybrid on the market, although adults crammed All In the third row of seats will be unhappy.

All this at a price of edible, though. Tahoe Hybrid costs $ 13,000 more than the base Tahoe, but Tahoe Equip the only gas at the same level as the hybrids currently cost more. The testers noticed the Tahoe Hybrid is the driving dynamics are a bit "weird and hard to get used to, thanks to regenerative braking ICT and hybrid powertrain in two ways. In addition, the Tahoe Hybrid comes with the typical plainte truck-based SUVs: Most buyers do not need all the features they offer, and would rather cross.

However, if you provide your program in the Tahoe is a top-of-the-line LTZ, Tahoe Hybrid is the most economical in fact, even without counting the money you'll save on annual fuel bills. Critics say that if a truck-based SUV that you need, and you have the budget for it, the Tahoe Hybrid is a good choice.

Others SUV Hybrid Model to Consider
If your priority is the number of seats and comfort inside the pipe rather towing capacity or four wheels, check out the Ford Flex. Not only can comfortably seat seven, has a third row of the line that is suitable for adults. Since Flex is a crossover vehicle based on the car, it is much more agile and fun to drive than the Tahoe Hybrid, and do not understand the quirks that come with a hybrid powertrain. Even with ICT EcoBoost engine, however, the Flex is not yet possible to beat the fuel economy of hybrid Tahoe City.

If you need a mat, truck-based SUVhybrid, the object can do without the luxury Tahoe Hybrid features, try the Toyota Sequoia. It has an inner core that is well done and easy to use, and is at the top of its class for ICT skills and solid build quality. In addition, CA up to eight people.
