2007 Toyota Camry
midsize car / 4-door sedan
Moderate overlap front: original test
Rating applies to 2007-11 models
Tested vehicle: 2007 Toyota Camry LE 4-door
The Toyota Camry was redesigned for the 2007 model year. Frontal ratings are assigned by the Institute based on a test conducted by Toyota. The Camry was redesigned again for the 2012 model year, so these ratings do not apply to 2012 models.
The frontal offset crash test ratings also apply to the Lexus ES 350, the midsize luxury/near luxury version of the Camry, beginning with 2007 models and continuing through the 2012 models, which were not redesigned.

Tested vehicle: 2007 Toyota Camry LE 4-door with standard front and rear head curtain airbags and standard front seat-mounted torso airbags
The Toyota Camry was redesigned for the 2007 model year. The Camry was redesigned again for the 2012 model year, so these ratings do not apply to 2012 models.
The side impact crash test ratings also apply to the Lexus ES 350, the midsize luxury/near luxury version of the Camry, beginning with 2007 models and continuing through the 2012 models, which were not redesigned.
