How fast is a Toyota Camry 0 to 60?

The quickest Camry to 60 mph is the 3.5-liter V6 variant, typically around the mid-to-low 5-second range. Four-cylinder and hybrid Camrys usually land in the low-to-mid 7-second range, with real-world results varying by year, trim, tires, and drive layout.


What determines a Camry’s 0–60 time


Acceleration figures are influenced by engine output, transmission, drivetrain (FWD vs. AWD), vehicle weight, aerodynamics, tire grip, and testing conditions. Toyota’s published numbers are often conservative, and independent tests can vary based on launch technique and environment.


Powertrain options and typical 0–60 times


Below is a guide to typical 0–60 mph times for common Camry configurations in recent years. Times are approximate ranges drawn from manufacturer data and independent testing; actual results depend on the model year, trim, and conditions.



  • Gasoline 2.5L four-cylinder (front-wheel drive): approximately 7.1–7.9 seconds

  • Gasoline 2.5L four-cylinder (all-wheel drive): approximately 7.3–8.0 seconds

  • Hybrid 2.5L system: approximately 7.5–8.5 seconds

  • 3.5L V6 (gasoline, non-hybrid, typically rear-wheel drive): approximately 5.5–6.0 seconds

  • 3.5L V6 (TRD/XSE performance variants): approximately 5.4–5.8 seconds


Note: These figures illustrate relative performance across Camry configurations. Real-world results depend on tires, surface, temperature, altitude, and launch method.


Real-world testing and caveats


Automotive outlets test Camrys under a variety of conditions, and factors like tire grip, weather, and testing methodology can shift times by tenths or more. Manufacturer numbers serve as benchmarks, but individual cars may perform differently based on setup and environment.


Summary


The Camry’s 0–60 performance varies widely by powertrain. For the quickest acceleration, the 3.5L V6 variants (including performance-oriented models) typically reach 60 mph in roughly 5.5–6.0 seconds. The more common 2.5L four-cylinder and the hybrid versions generally land in the 7–8.5-second range, with real-world results influenced by tires, conditions, and launch technique.
