The Real Cost of a 2007 Toyota Camry Hybrid Battery Replacement in Canada

If you’re driving a 2007 Toyota Camry Hybrid in Canada, you know just how dependable it can be. After many years of solid performance, though, some warning lights pop up, or your fuel economy just isn’t what it used to be. Those are common signs that the hybrid battery is wearing out. The big question: How much is this really going to cost you?

Don’t panic. Think of this like a conversation between two people trying to figure out the best, cost-effective route. We’ll go through real numbers, your options, and show that a failing hybrid battery does not have to mean the end of your car.

Why People Worry About Hybrid Battery Costs

Most of the worry stems from dealership quotes. A brand new OEM battery from a dealership, with parts and labour, can run between CAD $3,000 to over $4,000, depending on location, taxes, shipping, labour rates, etc.

But many owners are finding much lower prices elsewhere. For example, remanufactured batteries are available for between CAD $1,100 to CAD $2,500 (not counting installation, or maybe including basic installation) depending on the supplier and warranty. These cheaper options are precisely why comparing quotes is so important.

Greentec Auto Canada Offering & Pricing

Here’s what Greentec Auto Canada offers for a 2007 Camry Hybrid battery:

• Remanufactured battery (2007-2011 Camry model) with high performance cells — CAD $2,249.00, with return of your old battery. Includes a 24-month unlimited mileage warranty. 
• New generation / brand new cell pack  (2007-2011 Camry model)  option is also available: about CAD $3,099.00, with a 48-month unlimited mileage warranty. 

These are good benchmarks to compare with OEM prices or other remanufactured suppliers.

Warranty & Toyota Coverage Details

It’s useful to know what Toyota Canada offers, so you can see what’s covered, what’s not, and whether your vehicle may still have some warranty, or whether any lawyered warranty extension applies.

• Toyota Canada warranty for hybrid batteries for many newer models is 10 years or 240,000 kilometres, whichever comes first. 
• For older models like 2007, the original factory warranty has long lapsed in most cases, so owner would be out of warranty.
• Replacement battery warranty under Toyota parts & service (for replacement batteries) is typically 24 months labour & parts when installed by a Toyota dealership; if bought over-the-counter and installed elsewhere, warranty might be only for parts and for shorter duration. 

Knowing warranty terms helps when evaluating remanufactured vs OEM, plus whether paying extra for installation at a dealer or a specialist is worth it.

Replacement Options & What You Get

Here are the major replacement options, and what each one typically includes or lacks, especially in 2025:

Option	Approx Cost (Canada)	What You Get
OEM / Brand New (Dealership)	$3,000-$4,500+installed	Factory parts, full OEM warranty, original performance
Remanufactured (Greentec Canada)	$2,249.00 (Camry 2007-2011)	Rebuilt battery with tested cells, warranty (24-48 months depending)
New generation cell (Greentec Canada)	$3,099.00 (for Camry 2007-2011)	Brand new style cells, often with improved performance, longer warranty

What Drives the Price

To compare apples to apples, here are things to clarify when you get a quote:

1. What’s included in the price — cost of battery pack plus labour, installation, any required calibration, shipping, etc.
2. Warranty duration — how many months/years, what is covered (cells, modules, labour, shipping if repair is needed).
3. Quality of cells/modules — are they new, rebuilt, remanufactured? Are cells balanced? Are components (cooling, control electronics) checked?
4. Whether mobile installation is available — saves towing/transport cost. Greentec offers mobile installation for many models. 
5. Core return — some shops (including Greentec) require you return your old battery for a “core credit” or deposit, which reduces cost. 

How Long Do These Batteries Last?

Here are real-world lifespan observations:

• Toyota’s hybrid battery warranty for newer models (10 years or 240,000 km) suggests they expect the battery to still have useful life after that period. 
• Many owners exceed the warranty in terms of lifespan. Some Camry or Prius hybrid batteries continue serving well beyond 200,000 km when properly maintained.
• The biggest threats to lifespan are long periods of inactivity, extreme temperature cycles (especially heat), letting batteries go very low, or allowing cooling / ventilation issues.
  

Warranty and What to Watch For

Here are key warranty & coverage facts for Toyota hybrids:

• Toyota Canada extended warranty for many hybrid electric batteries is now 10 years or 240,000 km, whichever comes first, for newer models. That doesn’t apply to older models like 2007 in most cases. 
• For replacement batteries (after original), Toyota dealerships typically offer 24 months parts & labour on replacement batteries when installed by a dealer. Outside that, warranties might be shorter. 
• Greentec’s remanufactured battery warranty (for Camry 2007-2011) is 24 months unlimited mileage for the reman pack. 
• Greentec’s brand new cell option comes with 48 months unlimited mileage warranty. 

FAQs

What is the average cost to replace a 2007 Camry hybrid battery in Canada?

For a specialist remanufactured unit, expect around CAD $1,900–$2,300, installed. OEM rates or brand new cell packs push the cost higher, often CAD $3,000-$4,500 + labour.

Can I delay replacing the hybrid battery after the warning light appears?

Sometimes yes. If the warning is mild, your car may run mostly on petrol and limp through daily driving. But driving long distances, or continuing to run without diagnosis, risks harming related parts (inverter, cooling). It’s better to diagnose early, especially in cold weather where battery performance is reduced.

How do I know a remanufactured battery is reliable?

 Look for: warranty length, whether cells are balanced and tested, reputation of installer, return of core (old battery). Greentec qualifies in all these areas. Also look at reviews or service history if possible.

Is it cheaper to get OEM over remanufactured if I plan to keep the car long term?

OEM is more expensive upfront, but often more durable. However, given how well remanufactured packs perform (especially with good warranty), the savings may outweigh OEM benefits, particularly for a vehicle already 15+ years old. If OEM cost is much more than 1.5× reman cost, reman is usually more cost-efficient.

Are there hidden costs I might miss?

Yes. Possible extras include: towing, mobile service fees, shipping of old battery, core deposit or return, calibration, and sometimes replacing cooling components or sensors associated with battery pack. Always ask the quote to itemize everything.
