You’re looking at the first pics of the 2015 Toyota Camry 2.0G, one of three variants of the locally-assembled refreshed Camry that will be launched later this week. The other two are the entry-level 2.0E and the Camry Hybrid 2.5HV. The latter, which we showed you a full gallery of last week, is the first hybrid Toyota to be assembled in Malaysia.
The CKD Camry 2.0 gets a new 2.0 litre VVT-iW D-4S engine. The direct-injection 6AR-FSE unit, making 167 PS at 6,500 rpm and 199 Nm of torque at 4,600 rpm, has separate twin injectors for both direct and port injection. It is mated to a six-speed torque converter “Super ECT” automatic gearbox with manual mode.
Both the engine and transmission are significant upgrades from the outgoing 1AZ-FE 2.0 litre VVT-i (150 PS/190 Nm) and four-speed automatic combo.
Equipment wise, it looks like the 2.0G will come with HID projector headlamps with LED daytime running lights, twin-tailpipes and 16-inch multi-spoke wheels with 215/60 Bridgestone Turanza ER33 tyres, plus front and rear parking sensors. The bodykit seen here is optional.
Inside the black-themed interior, Camry 2.0G occupants get black perforated leather seats; wood trim on the dashboard, centre console, gear knob and door pulls; dual-zone auto air con; steering buttons; cruise control and keyless entry with push start button. There’s also a cool new Optitron instrument cluster with a full-colour multi-info display between the two dials. The DVD-AVN head unit seen here is optional.
Things like the twin-projector LED headlights, 10-speaker JBL Green Edge Tech sound system and Qi wireless charger are reserved for the range topping Camry Hybrid, which could retail for RM175k. More details coming your way soon, but for now, browse our live gallery of the 2015 Toyota Camry CKD.
