Toyota Camry Safety Ratings

2021 Toyota Camry


Drivers near Leesburg, The Villages, or Apopka, Florida, who are checking out the Toyota Camry are likely wondering about its safety. If you happen to be near Mount Dora or Clermont, Florida, you want to enjoy your trip with the knowledge that your vehicle can provide protection in the event of a collision.

To determine this safety, reputable sources, like the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), rate vehicles based on how they handle different impacts. 

Our team at Phillips Toyota reviewed the Toyota Camry safety ratings from both the IIHS and NHTSA so our clients can better understand where the Camry falls in terms of safety. Check out our article below, and contact us if you’d like to learn more!


Toyota Camry IIHS & NHTSA Safety Ratings

Perfect 5-Star Safety RatingThe NHTSA gave the Toyota Camry a perfect 5-Star Overall Safety Rating. Whether placed in a frontal crash, side crash, or rollover scenario, this Toyota model scored a perfect 5-Star Safety Rating in each instance. You as the driver, your passenger to your right, and anyone seated in the second row will be suitably protected should you encounter a crash. 

The IIHS gives the Toyota Camry similar ratings, having put it through many of the same crash tests. The highest rating it can receive is “Good,” which it did for all aspects of the side, driver’s side, and moderate overlap front tests.

The Camry’s front crash prevention system received a “Superior” rating for both vehicle and pedestrian collisions. Also, its LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children) system received “Good” ratings, so you will know your children are secure. The result is the Camry being named a 2021 TOP SAFETY PICK+.

Toyota Camry Standard Safety Technology

The Toyota Camry features the standard Toyota Safety Sense™ 2.5+ suite that comes with a wide selection of driver-assistive systems. For example, the Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection—the one that received the “Superior” rating—can provide braking and warnings if it sees a vehicle or pedestrian in your path.

For highway drives, you’ll appreciate Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist so you stay firmly within your lane. Lane drifting can be fixed via gentle steering nudges to adjust your vehicle as needed.

An innovative feature is Road Sign Assist, which can read signs posted along your route. You can then see the information from that sign on your dashboard so you know a stop sign is nearing or that the speed limit is about to change.

Additional Toyota Camry Safety Features 

2021 Toyota Camry SafetyThe Camry comes with additional standard and available safety features that continue to make it a great vehicle to drive. The standard Star Safety System™ includes Enhanced Vehicle Stability Control, Traction Control, and Electronic Brake-force Distribution.

There are 10 standard airbags as well as driver and front passenger Whiplash-Injury-Lessening seats to provide additional protection during a possible impact. If you want even more technology than what comes standard, there are many available systems to consider, like the Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert.
