Featured 2018 Camry hybrid to offer two different battery packs

Don't know - but Ford's Bronko got popular during early 70's - & the Suburban was around long before that. There were several variants of the panel wagon too ... a precursor of the SUV - so likely they're here to stay. They don't all have to be huge gas hogs though. iirc, Model X's AWD, 7 seater epa equivelent is what .... ~ 90ish mpge?

when you look at the top 10 selling cars, design doesn't seem to be the priority for most buyers.

 

You're right - so with pickups being huge - maybe hybridize?
.

 

I thought Toyota was going to make a hybrid Tundra at one time A hybrid Tacoma would be nice.

 

Mericans love cardboard box designs with shinyness in the right places and large oversized clownlike novelty tires.

That has been the sales trend for a long time.

With temporarily cheap gas everybody and their brother has to drive big boxes again,
because that one day five years ago they needed it.

 

i don't consider pick ups to be cars, but i'm all for electrifying them.

So, when do we get the Hybrid corolla that Australia has?

 

wow . . . let me help with a few more idiotic stereotypes - my black step-father in-law loves watermelon - my jewish wife is money grubbing, & our Japanese exchange student - she's sneaky.
Surprise surprise, my ex law partner, sir name Martinez - the only thing he found clown like, was the racist comment on what Mexicans love.
Wow. After all these years on PC, i finally have someone whose 'matter-of-fact" thinking is extreamly worthy of the ignore button.

Lol

A Merican is not a Mexican, please read that one letter refers to a redneck with a cheeseburger the other refers to a Chicano.

Urban Dictionary: merican

Merica For Mericans

surprised I need to define that here

 

Sorry - not up on my derogatory terminology. My mistake - it looked like a typo so i guess i apologize.
.

 

hybrid corolla wouldn't sell. maybe if gas gets to 5 bucks.

 

If pick ups aren't cars, then why are SUVs?

The F150 sold almost twice as many as the Camry last year.

 

Especially since SUVs are usually built on a truck chassis. Minivans are not cars either.

 

Because they all are personal, passenger vehicles, I use the term cars as the catch all.

 

So are pickup trucks, here in the southern US.

 

i assume more pick ups are used for work than suv's, and so, are necessary for hauling large amounts of stuff. but i'm in massachusetts, where soccer moms tend to drive suburbans over f150's.
if someone could separate work vehicles from pleasure/commuter, or basic transportation, that would be even better.
i'd be happy to count the number of pick ups that don't get used for regular hauling.

 

to put it another way, i'm simply more interested in what the majority of people are buying, aside from trucks. you'll see on the top ten list that only the rav4 and crv make it, which shows most people are still looking for some fuel economy.

 

You missed the Escape and Rouge, and 11 and 12 are the Explorer and Equinox.
These sales number don't break out how many of those Camries were hybrids nor V6s; same with the V6 AWD Fusion. They also don't account for sale incentives.
