History of Toyota Camry:
It was designed as a "world car" to appeal to as many markets and demographics as possible, a strategy that can pay off well just like the Ford Focus project.
The first models were designated as "V10" and featured smaller engine choices than American consumers would expect today.
Over the generations and as the models ran through "V20", "V30" and "V40" codes the car grew in size slightly from a compact to a mid-size car.
Along with the increase in size came a rise in engine sizes and built-in features such as ABS and power steering.
Modern Features and Design:
Modern examples show that the design has been kept fairly simple, and the model is a great example of a simple car that can appeal to many different buyers.
Most recently, the 2017 XV70 Camry was released with the option of a hybrid system that helps capture lost energy during braking and recycle it during acceleration.
Impressively the Toyota Camry has clipped onto sales even as the general market is moving towards crossover SUVs such as the Buick Encore.
