My local Toyota has a 2019 Camry on display that was rear ended by a semi. It's amazing how intact the cabin is. Yeah the rear is now a hatch back and completely flattened, but I'm absolutely blown away at how unharmed the entire cabin is. Good job Toyota
Safety has really come a long way since 2002. It's amazing what car technologies and the efforts of the IIHS can do. Love and safety to all from Australia! 🇦🇺 ☺️... Cheers and peace.
My 2004 Camry LE has no side curtain airbags. The sad thing is that back then side curtain airbags were an option. They weren't standard until the 2007 model year.
@Shawn Kemp My Camry has been holding up good (I take care of it). I've had it since brand new, and as of now, it has ~185K miles. I never heard of transmission problems, or experienced it. I have heard of engine oil issues (oil burning or leaking), and I had an oil leak a couple years ago. But other than that, I've never had any major issues. Only smaller things like an exhaust leak, or the alternator going out, or that the front struts had to be replaced once (the driver-side spring broke). It still has its original headlights and fog lights. However, I would probably recommend the sixth generation Camry. I know the 2007 Camry has the same 4 cylinder engine as mine (although with minor updates). And the transmission has another gear. Although, an issue with the sixth gen Camry (at least the earlier ones) is that their headlights fog/haze from the sun quite fast. My Camry's headlights are still quite clear.
In 2002 size airbags as they were optional. Now it is standard equipment. I drove an 03 Camry and the only injury I had when I had an accident was my left knee. Back then side air bags weren't standard equipment as they are now. However, Toyota designed it's car well and with every redesign it gets improved.
IIHS changed from half offset to quaternary offset. The safety didn't change, the test did. Your tire used to be able to go over the curb just fine, now they added spikes to the curb. So did you tire suddenly change? Common sense peopel.
I like more the V40. My V40 is the first Generation from 2007. But the V30 is also very nice!!! Here in Germany on can not buy a Camry because of that my Camry is from Canada...
Their actual safety record doesn't reflect that, unfortunately real world accidents don't occur in a perfect manner such as these tests, it's a good idea to look up real world crash info and see the real world damage that occurs, there are also some good channels on RU-vid that show accident videos and the aftermath such as Loud Labs etc.
@@4nciite a crash in a volvo is just as deadly too. these tests might say the safety is good but the force of stopping still wont keep you from dying. short message: just put away the phone because even your $90,000 safe car is still deadly.
@@Kayshots There's a big difference between brands and models, thinking that all car brands and models perform the same is very naive. Some car brands like Toyota for example cut a lot of corners and make cars as cheaply as possible and it shows in the real world when compared to other brands.
Not even that. Watch the 2002 Camry crash. Notice the passenger cell remains intact. If Euro NCAP conducted that crash test on that car, they would for sure award it a 5 star safety rating. Now watch the 2012 Camry crash. Notice the passenger cell deforms. The 2018 Camry performs as well as the 2002 Camry though. The occupants of the 2002 and 2018 models would most likely be able to walk away from the crash virtually unscathed, while the driver (it's American, so it's LHD) of the 2012 model would almost certainly have a broken leg at least. Plus he missed the airbag and faceplanted the dashboard, so that is a guaranteed head injury, and those can lead to long-term disability or even death.
MrSupercar55 You can't compare those tests. The 2002 was subjected to a moderate overlap, where 40 percent of the car strikes the barrier. Only 25 percent of the 2012 vehicle strikes the barrier, putting much greater stress on the structure. The 2012 did better than the 2002 in the moderate overlap test. Look it up, the tests were done by the IIHS.
2002 الأفضل و 2012 الاسوأ في التصادم الأمامي أما 2018 أتوقع والله أعلم أنه الأكثر أمانا من أجيال الكامري على الركاب بشكل عام لأنه مدجج بالايرباقات وتقنيات السلامة 😀
ابو مقباس صدقت لكن الأهم سلامة الركاب من آثار الحوادث وهنا هدف اختبارات التصادم التركيز على هل السيارة قادرة على حماية الركاب في الحوادث المرورية أو بأختصار مثل مانقول بالعامية في الحديد ولا في العبيد وسلامتكم
Even with the poor small overlap front driver side rating, the 2012 is still scored by IIHS as a "2012 Top Safety Pick" as opposed to a "Top Safety Pick +"
Стрекоза, было две таких, на одной попал в аварию, тотал, морда вся ушла, сам жив здоров, нога правая только поныла пару дней и всё (в момент аварии была зажата педаль тормоза).
Let me de-mystify this video: The 2002 tested was in the moderate overlap frontal crash test. This uses 40% of the front end and isn't nearly as stringent on the structure as the small overlap on only 25% of the front end. The 2012, 2014, and 2018 were tested in the small overlap (the 2018 was tested on the passenger side, the 2012 and 2014 on the driver side). The 2002 is not safer than the 2012, the crash test became tougher. The 2012, 2014, and 2018 all passed the MODERATE overlap with flying colors, they did even better than the 2002. Similarly, the 2002 would do even worse in the SMALL overlap than the 2012 did. The Camry's been improving on frontal crash safety with each generation. The 2004 and 2007 were side impact tests. Any Camry without side and side curtain airbags is going to perform just as bad as that 2004 did. The 2002's frontal test still applies to the 2004, as the generation ran from 2002-2006. So an '02-06 Camry did Good in the moderate overlap test and Poor in the side impact (unless you got the optional side airbag package, that bumped it up to Good in the side impact too) April 21, 2019 12:17 am
Consider this - the camry first came out in 1983 and had ZERO airbags. i had a small overlap crash in my 88 camry (still zero airbags) and the only injury was my hand - AFTER the crash, when i realized what i'd done (clipped a light pole, ripped off the right front wheel), i hit the steering wheel over and over out of frustration. Toyota finally added a driver airbag in 1992 and passenger airbag in 95. technology and testing methods evolve over time, and every crash is different.
الله يكفينا شر الحوادث كلها مافيها امان بعد سرعة ١٢٠ التصادم هذا على سرعة ٨٠ وشوف كيف صار لو اكثر الله يرحمن برحمته اللهم اهدي شباب المسلمين وبنات المسلمين
И тем не менее, с каждым кузовом безопаснее. Там не дураки инженеры работают. Кстати, говорят на 70-ку фольга, а у нее зато крыша при ударе промялась , а потом сама выправилась)))
Why did they test those models? Those models are very important for safety reasons. So if I get in a accident tomorrow or in the near future. I’m putting Toyota fault in this and will sue the company
Milad Anki when they don't test the models it's because there were no major changes based on what the manufacturer said so testing them would be testing the exact same car with different internal features despite the car and safety features being the same. Not only that but they're still required to do crash testing for the US government and the international NCAP so you can check ratings on those too.
Toyota Camry is THE taxi car in my city, too. Snow storm and -30 Celsius on a regular basis. Oh, I have NEVER seen one stuck in snow. Surprised to know that it's also popular in the ultra hot Middle East with frequent sand storms. It seems that 2018 Toyota Camry XSE V6 is THE BEST car for me. Reliability, durability, power, handling. It has all. Yes, handling. I actually rented an 2018 BMW 330i for a business trip, drove it for 1000 km within the few days, and then test drove a 2018 Toyota Camry XSE V6 right after I got out of it. I mean right after, within 20 minutes. And I felt the Camry was actually faster once it finished wheel spin (301hp fwd), gave better feedback from the road, and more comfortable. And it's still cheaper than the BMW with 53 LESS horsepower! What can I say...
Oh right. I really really really really really hate Japanese cars, especially Toyota, until I actually got in one and drove like I stole it. btw, I got a 2nd place in a go kart best of the week rank right before the rank refreshed, so I'm not just a commuter when it comes to cars.
wrong wrong wrong. because in 2002 they tested the 02 camry in the moderate overlap test. in 2012 they introduced the harder and more challenging small overlap front crash test.
We have a 2004 Camry a 2011 camry and a 2015 camry. The 2011 Camry cost way too much to fix. I was rear ended and the car pushed my muffler forward and got the steering out of alignment and made all the sensors go off but no airbag deployment and it cost over 3k to fix
For all you guys saying one did better than the other . Sigh.....they changed the frontal offset significantly over the years the 2012 and up are on about a 12” offset. The 2002 is like 24” that makes a huge difference

@@toxy3580 The 2002 Camry was a much better car in every single area over the 2012 except safety. The 2012-14 was easily the cheapest built and worst Camry of all time.
بكل تاكيد كامري 2018 افضل امان الي يقول كامري 2002 افضل واقوى شوف مقطع الفيديو ارتداد السائق قوي جدا وهذا يسبب كسور او نزيف داخلي لا سمح الله اما 2018 امتصاص الصدمة افضل وامان بعد الله افضل
well no, the reason why 02 has less damage cause it was tested on the moderate overlap test. Let me de-mystify this video: The 2002 tested was in the moderate overlap frontal crash test.

I don’t what happen in 2012 and 2013. In 2014, the improved the safety a little bit, and in 2015, the redesigned the Camry and safety improved dramatically. If you want to get a 2012-2017 Toyota Camry, buy a 2014 or newer, but if you really want a safe Camry, get a newer.
2015-2017 Toyota Camrys got great scores. They didn’t show those. I happen to drive a 2015 Toyota Camry, and according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the 2015-2017 Toyota Camrys got a good rating overall. You forgot to show the Camrys form 2015-2017.
