Maybe the "smoothness" and lack of "shift points" is a fooler.
0->60 in 7 seconds is no slug.
The TCH is a lot "smoother" in it's acceleration than the wife's '07 XLE-V6 which will "snap you neck" when you floor it. The TCH won't.
I've driven the '07 Camry's in all three engine flavors and the TCH definitely falls in between the L-4 and V-6 in responsiveness. Closer to the V-6 than the L-4 IMO.
