The video proves that it can do 0 to 60 in 5.5 seconds!

I agree that it's very hard to believe!

but the video doesn't lie!

Well you can also see the actual results in the video itself. Start at 55 sec and 60 mph comes in at 1:04. That's 9 seconds but will give it an 8.

You can even count it off - one thousand, two thousand... and end up at 8 to 9 seconds. Does Rick work for or have stock in Toyota???

I timed it from 0 to 60 on a Tag Heuer chronometer. 9.6 seconds.

Even the driver said "maybe 10 seconds." He was close.

Rick721.......No, that's not what I mean at all. I meant 9.6 seconds 0 to 60 for that particular run of the new 2018 Toyota Camry.

Count time as you see fit. Make yourself happy.

Consider me bored. Bye bye!
