    Depends how much the HAH costs in your area.

    In Canada, it's $37,000 or a few hundred above the current 2006 Camry XLE V6 Package "B".

    I would wager it'll be around the low 30s (Maybe $32k?). The thing is, I believe the 2006 Camry XLE V6 is priced too high (Accord EX V6, Mazda6 GT V6 and Altima 3.5 SE all top out around $33-34k)

    Not if one of the purposes was, in not-so-obviously-discriminating fashion, to provide a long-lasting incentive to potential buyers of late-starting American manufacturers' hybrids. It was specifically discussed when the Energy Bill was drawn up.

    Sorry, I'm confused...

    Will the Camry Hybrid be available in the spring (Jun?) or is it just the regular gas engined Camry that will be available in the spring?

    Any idea how the hybrid will be priced? Will it be 10, 20 or 25% above the
    price as the regular gas engined Camry?

    Trying to figure out if I should stall taking delivery of an 06 Prius and wait for the new Camry Hybrid.

    Thanks for any advice.

    The Camry comes out in late March and the Camry Hybrid will be released three months later, according to numerous sources. So figure June-July if no initial supply problems.

    As for price, Toyota stated it will be cheaper than a "loaded" V-6 Camry. The 2006 (current-generation) Camry XLE V-6 AT is $25800 + delivery, though with navigation it's $27900 + delivery. Prices will probably rise a bit for 2007 but I'd expect the base hybrid to be $26000 to $28000. I'm hoping no more than $26k.
