strongly recommend go for 2.5L .... new 2.5 litre four-cylinder petrol engine delivers more responsive performance and better fuel economy than the current model’s 2.4 litre petrol engine (Save 24%). Camry will now be fitted with a six speed automatic transmission – replacing the current generation’s five-speed gearbox. The engine speed output can compare to 3.0L while the fuel consume is less than 2.0L
and it comes with lots of goodies....10 airbags, BSM, TPWS, GOA, PCS, JBL dobly 5.1 360 degree 10 speakers...wow
Im quite sure we wont be getting 10 airbags in the Malaysian Camry. Some of these specs wont reach Malaysia for sure. And i would expect the Camry 2.5L to be priced approx RM 185K with half the specs mentioned above. Plus this time, the Camry has a crappy design so thats another negative.
Btw, 181HP and 235Nm torque for the 2.5L Camry isn't that great. Passat 1.8TSI gives out 158Hp & 250 Nm torque, Ford Mondeo 2.0L gives 200Hp & 300Nm torque.
Which 3.0L car were u comparing against?
