It’s been over a year since the Toyota Camry was launched in Japan, and to keep the D-segment sedan fresh in everyone’s minds, Toyota has introduced the Camry Sports variant. The sportier look, previously available only in the United States and Australia, is finally making its way to the car’s home market.
The result is an exterior design that is far more aggressive than the standard Camry, coming with a large gloss black X-shaped graphic across the front end, together with bigger air intakes, deeper side skirts, fake air vents under the tail lights, a bootlid lip spoiler and a rear diffuser with twin exposed exhaust exits. The interior gets metallic decorative trim panels and paddle shifters.
Those paddles are connected to the same hybrid powertrain as before, consisting of a 178 hp/221 Nm A25A-FXS 2.5 litre Dynamic Force direct-injected petrol engine and a 120 PS/202 Nm electric motor to produce a total system output of 211 PS. Fuel consumption is rated at 33.4 km per litre on the Japanese JC08 cycle.
The Camry Sports is offered in two variants, the WS (which stands for “Worldwide” and “Sports,” says Toyota) and the WS Leather Package. The latter gets genuine leather seats (obviously), plus 18-inch alloy wheels in a new two-tone finish, a head-up display, a power-adjustable front passenger seat to match the driver’s and a T-Connect navigation system.
Prices range between 3,672,000 yen (RM135,900) for the WS and 4,341,600 yen (RM160,600) for the WS Leather Package. A total of 10 exterior colours are offered, including three two-tone colour schemes that pair Platinum White Pearl Mica, Emotional Red and Dark Blue Mica Metallic with an Attitude Black Mica roof.

The Emperor is back!
Why buy toyota when we can buy GELI PROTON … belilah Proton buatan “Malaysia”
The Emperor is back! causing Camry to cost 188,888 for 2.0E, and 228,888 for 2.5V predicted in 2021. The third baby will make a lot of people to vote back the Bee-Ant which is without najis now.
Without Ah Hua gor, it will be just five years only.
Jimmy’s prediction will be same like all the doomsday false prophets prediction…retail price of camry will definately go downhills since japanese yen started to depreciate against ringgit kupang until 2021…..
Strong us dollar Weak nippon yen?
Why buy Honda when we can buy PROTON and Toyota, Mazda Dan Kia….belilah Proton buatan Malaysia Dan belilah Toyota, Mazda, Kia. Ini tiga automakers including Proton are good quality cars than Honda.
True halloha560. Dear Malaysian, there are reason why people shouldn’t buy Honda models in Malaysia. It is because Honda Malaysia is an association of manufacturers or suppliers with the purpose of maintaining prices at a high level and restricting competition. Moreover, Honda Service is very terrible as proven by JD Power Malaysia Customer Service Index (http://www.jdpower.com/business/press-releases/jd-power-2017-malaysia-customer-service-index-csi-study) – [take note that Proton and Perodua JD Power Malaysia Customer Service Index will improve in the next few years]. Furthermore, there are also having problem about faulty part for some Honda models. I am Civic owner, I just bought it last year. After one year, there is also having problem about my Civic. EPS (Electonic Power Steering) got problem. Also when I drive at the low speed, I heard that there is a crackling noise from Drive Shaft and also Relay on/off for more than 10 times in 1 second which gives problem. Therefore, as I went in to the Honda showroom, Honda people didn’t greet me. This shows that Honda Customer Care is very terrible as well. This is actually why Malaysian is cheated by Honda Malaysia.
UMW got another winner in the Camry
You are lucky to have ONLY two problems/noises, my Civic 1.5 TCP is less than 5 months old and I have been hearing noises from steering wheel, steering column, driver and passenger doors, underneath 7 inch central console, air con vents, room light, dashboard, rear seat, A pillar, and some areas which I couldn’t identify. I have been to Different service centers for a total of 8 times, as you might have experienced, the problems/noises are either not attended to properly, or they will just ask you to live with it. There was one time that they replaced my VSA (Vehicle Stability Assist) unit which they suspected was the faulty part that generated noises, and at the end it didn’t help at all. And there was a time that I waited for 3 and half hours at service center for technician from Honda Malaysia (after many complaints that local dealer couldn’t solve my problem), and the so-called Honda Malaysia came late (after 3 and half hour of waiting), checked my vehicle and left within 30 minutes without even approaching me! It has been a mental and physical abusing for trusting and buying a rm132k car from Honda. Such a bad quality car, such a bad service, such a joke Honda you are. Shame on you.
Butthurt Toyota SAs got nothing better to do…
I will miss the 6-speeds Super ECT. Because CVT has lifespan. Not surprise a lot of gearbox replacement in the next few years
Similar price in Malaysia…hmmm…so who says our price is high…another example…the vios is priced almost identical in Asean plus minus a bit…except for singapore of course
this or new accord or new mazda 6..hmmm
New Toyota Camry 2018 and New Mazda 2018 is better than 2018 Honda Accord 2018
Except, JDM models had consistently been of better pedigree than other markets. Comparison between non-JDM and JDM isn’t remotely fair to say the least.
I suspect it’s their way to support their local Auction Houses, a better equipped and meticulously manufactured vehicle for an affordable price is a lot more enticing to foreign importers and buyers.
So … … …
U know what I’ll said
Salaryman becomes ultraman. Now boring uncle can go fast with boring sensation.
New Vios takes this to the next level by becoming Ultraman car itself
As long as not dsg
Meanwhile Camry sold here at Rm140k. Rm4000 diff only. Lolz!
fake news again. Camry sold here at Rm140k is the 2.0 basic spec model . the camry sports in japan is 2.5 hybrid.
This is the best looking Camry to date, both exterior and interior. Going to sell well.
(Like) 2018 Beautiful Toyota Camry and 2018 Stylish Mazda 6
(Dislike) 2018 Donkey Face Honda Accord
no tebu version
Been waiting for almost a year for its arrival to our shore. UMW Toyota perhaps is sleeping and waiting its rival to out sell them at even wider gap. Thumbs down to Toyota Malaysia.
On the first comment, Thumbs down means dont agree with Manfred. Thumbs up means Agree to Manfred. So Since majority of you press downlikes means dont agree
Our CKD Camry is Asean species. When Thai haven’t replace the new model we could just wait and wait.
I think they will start production of the new Camry and bios once their new factory is up and running cause investing in a new line cost a lot of money and thu can’t do it cause they will be moving soon
So this is what Ah Beng’s last ride look like after reaching 60’s.
why do you guys all the time give a misleading price info by directly translating it from a foreign currency?
UMW Toyota is Sleeping..? Already 1 year in Japan and yet, this model still not available in Malaysia..?
Even the new Vios still not even near our shore, thank you UMW.
Why bother? Its the same junk anyways. Come out with new platform & better safety then can talk lar.
Even Honda Accord looks like donkey face. At least Proton Design, Toyota Design, Kia Design and Mazda Design is better than outdated Honda Design and Honda donkey design
your comment show that you are 1 of Toyota Salesman that..
sorry to say but, current Camry sold by UMW Toyota Malaysia is far to outdated compare to Honda Accord, Nissan Teana. The best design now is Mazda6 for this class.
Once again, the Americans are lucky with their 300 HP V6. I assume the 4 cylinder is fine for Japanese roads.
No buy say boboy…. Daddy say camry no good. Daddy will make new car for boboy. This car best in the world.
Toyota Camry and Mazda 6 is one of the best in the world. Camry is good and well perfect design including for Mazda 6
No Apple car play or Android auto.
Sigh!
Are we back to the 90s’?
Buruk giler, designers have no better idea than this ugly front? This is the product of lepak 8x a day , drink sake 8x, sack the designer
Wow. The spirit of NASCAR Cup Car
I got 2011 camry ,The high temperatures cause the surface of the dashboard sticky , they use cheap materials and the customer support program that the one they Star it to fix the problem will not cover all the vehicles
