The one I drove was the facelifted Camry 2.4V variant which tick every box on the equipment list. It has a VVT-i powerplant which churns out 167PS and 224Nm of torque, which I can say the power output is more than enough for the Camry to take on the highway’s right lane proudly. Toyota Camry is not a car for spirited driving, where its steering is light but predictable. Body roll was apparent but well controlled when taking the car into a corner at high speed.

Toyota Camry is no stranger in the D-segment sedan category. It has been one of the longest running and best selling D-segments in the highly competitive market around the world due to its good reliability, quality and comfort. In Malaysia, the Camry is still selling like hot cake despite the Koreans (Kia and Hyundai I mean, not K-Pop) are gaining popularity. Everything happens for reasons.

Those who never drove or sat in a Camry will find that it is as plain as a white A4 size paper. Unadventurous design and certainly not as curvy as its competitors. It does have some road presence, however, which appeals to family man who needs space for his family and travel in class.

With the economic recession for past few years there are lots of people who cannot afford to buy a new car. So the best available option is to buy a used car and Japanese cars are best for this purpose. Japanese cars are , excellent in terms of quality, requires low maintenance and the best part is that you can get the used Japanese cars for almost half the price.

What if I told you that a new Camry hybrid has been launched in Japan earlier this month? Unfortunately the tax structure in Malaysia would not encourage this vehicle to be brought into our country, as hybrid tax exemptions are only obtained by vehicles that carry engines smaller than 2,000cc. This means that this Camry hybrid would not qualify as it carries a 2AR-FXE 2.5-liter Atkinson cycle internal combustion engine. That means that the vehicle will for now only be available in Japan, as the Camry that was released in the United States recently also looks different compared to the newly unveiled Camry in Japan. Upon further inspection, we realized that the Japanese variant of the Camry looks more like the Aurion design that was released by Toyota Ukraine.
