Steep driveways, curbs and snow
Take steep driveway aprons at an angle. With 5.4 inches listed for every grade, a sharp change in slope is where a low front end is most likely to scrape, so go slowly and let one front wheel climb first.
Stop short of tall parking blocks and curbs. Toyota.com lists the Camry at 193.5 inches long; pull in until the tire touches the block gently rather than letting the front bumper ride over it.
Plan ahead for deep snow. On toyota.com's figures all-wheel drive does not add ground clearance, so unplowed side streets and drifts can still reach the underbody.
