Toyota Camry is certified with two 2.0-liter engines, there is no version with a 2.5-liter engine in the certification documents
The official premiere of the newest ninth-generation Toyota Camry took place in China last month, and now the car has been certified by the local Ministry of Industry – this automatically gives permission to start selling. But in reality, sales will start much later (approximately in March 2024).
Certification was not without surprises. First, the design of the hybrid and the regular gasoline version are exactly the same, although when it was officially unveiled last month, the gasoline Camry had a large radiator grille in the spirit of the current generation car (it is now frameless).
The second point is related to the power plants: a hybrid with a 2.5-liter engine – No! Perhaps this version will be certified later, but for now the Camry will have the two most stunted 2.0-liter engines. Moreover, the most powerful – regular gasoline, it produces 173 hp. But the power of the hybrid version based on a 2.0-liter engine – 152 hp Considering the dimensions (4915 x 1840 x 1450 mm, wheelbase – 2825 mm) and curb weight of the Camry (2030-2070 kg), 152 hp. for her – few. But consumption is low: 4.5 l/100 km for the hybrid and 6.06 l/100 km for the purely gasoline version. The maximum speed of a gasoline car – 205 km/h, hybrid – 180 km/h
