- Hey guys and girls! The New 2022 Toyota Camry has just been launched a few minutes ago, and we now know the price is RM199,109.00 on the road without insurance, and I think it's a great price.
At last, the Camry comes with the Dynamic Force 2.5 litre engine that has excellent power, 209 PS and 253 Nm of torque, and promises a fuel consumption of 6.8 liters/100 km.
A week ago, we participated in a media drive to Gambang, Pahang in the new Camry, and now that the embargo has been lifted, we are pleased to release our First Impressions video.
Please enjoy the video and let us have your comments below, and don't forget, if you need to book this car, you can do it through this channel.

wow..who wouldve thought a camry would be a driver's car now..great chassis n suspension set up, good engine n gearbox pairing..and a sports mode..this is exciting n yet they did not skimp on comfort n luxury n not to mention reliability..a win in the d segment
out-looked more sporty
not uncle-car,no more🙃
This is the only non sports car toyota that I've ever liked in my life hahaha what a gorgeous looking car with so much better executed interior and engine. Accord is totally out of the picture with it's civic engine, that means Mazda 6 is the main competitor to this camry. Heard the rwd Mazda 6 is coming out this year with even more power👀
Greeting from the US. Enjoyed the video. I have a 22 Camry I agree with your impressions. In the states we do not get the center controls in the rear seats, just cup holders. 🤣 If you wanted a Toyota with that feature you would have to get a Lexus LS
Good contribution. Thanks.
Lmao you guys get a Camry with 250 hp our Camry's here only have 190hp appreciate your country
How much does this camry 2.5 cost in US?
It is ~ 65kUSD in Vietnam which i think is very expensive
@@nguyenmanhcuong868 The gas only base Camry over here is around $25,395 MSRP and fully loaded (with 3.5, V6 engine) over $40,000. Can get a decently equipped model with the 2.5 engine for about $31,000. From what I see the Camry over there comes in higher spec than a US Camry starts at.
I agree 65k is high. For us that is Lexus Territory.
@@AlexBAlixir98 65k$ is the “Ready To Drive” price for gasoline 2.5V the 2022 version, equipped with Toyota Safety Sense
Compared to Mazda 6 2.5 Signature 2022 (Nappa leather, I Active sense) only 48k$ ready to drive price
Damn the back seats are top of its class. This Camry will definitely sell like hot cakes, only if it is priced very competitively against Accord, Mazda 6 and Passat! We shall wait for the pricing to be out. But my guessing, it will be below RM200k, maybe priced at RM199k! Well done toyota!
The price was in the notes, and it is RM199k.
@@YSKhongDriving ahhh i missed the notes! Thanks for reminding :D
Rarely see this camry on the road, guess ppl nowadays prefer SUV....same trend worldwide
@@YSKhongDriving which do you prefer between honda accord and toyota camry
Damn those towkay seats 👌🏽💯
IMO the Camry is an all rounder while the accord only shines on its power train
Excellent observation
Camry n carnival have many in common, nearly same price, same HP, same 8AT, both have paddle shifter..
ride n handling & comfort, is comparable??
Hmmm, now that you mention it, hahaha, they sound very similar, but of course, the Camry is a sedan, versus a huge MPV. Whichever one you buy depends on your needs.
I know Camry and Rav4 are from two different classes, but man I'm still deciding between the 2.
They are built on the same platform
Finally, now Camry comes with Dynamic Force engine and 8 speed AT. Great review uncle Ys🔥💯
Thank you Jun Wai.
@@YSKhongDriving your welcome uncle👍
Honda accord 2.0T (uk have)
10at 25xhp .
It is downtuned civic 2.0t (fk8r) engine
Damn i can only afford Toyota cross 😁
Finally got this engine & gearbox after got "delayed" for 3 yrs
Hahaha, yes, and I am glad too.
The camry front bumper looks like a refined GT86 similar with the engine layout. Good review!
uncle YS have you test drive proton preve or inspira?
I like to see how their performance go up to Genting
Nope, they were made before I started doing videos, hahaha.
Waiting for your civic fe review
Waiting for car, Luke.
Waiting for car also. Here’s hoping it will be good.
Wow, that's a significant upgrade in the engine and transmission! Guess Uncle was very tempted to turn into Genting! 😂
Hahaha, all in good time.
@@YSKhongDriving I notice the cabin insulation is amazing. Can hear both your voices clearly even on high speed 140++. Accord and Passat kalah. Can get deafening in those two cars. Passat thanks to lousy tyres (tyre roar dominate other noises).
@@royalprince5878 try the Passat without run flat tyres and go again. Defo more quieter
@@jasonw98 Passat doesn't have run flat tyres normal tyres but lousy Continental CC5//UC6 (not sure which one) for Elegance and R Line comes with lousy Pirelli Cinturato used in cheaper BMWs. For Camry I think the Bridgestone Turanza T005A contributes to the quietness and ride comfort
I laughed when your passenger offered to switch back to eco mode lol
Hahaha
Hhahahaha
199k, look at the price nowdays. So sad, car looks amazing as usual
19 years ago, the first Camry was RM137k. My first Datsun1200 was RM8200. A Mini 850 was RM6000 in 1972
1996 my dad bought Accord around RM 100k, KL shopping mall promoter salary around RM 600 (include commission). Today's Accord and Camry about RM 200k and salary of promoter in KL shopping mall is beyond RM 1500 (exclude commission). Some more today's new car offer more gadgets, safer and more powerful than before. It is reasonable for D segment car at this price.
So calm... This Camry is smooth..
Yes just watched Uncle's Accord and Passat drive, both are equally harsher and busy ride, Camry so comfy and smooth.
how do you feel about toyota standard premium security & solar tint? do you feel its good enough blocking heat from the sun if car parked out open in afternoon?
Any car parked in the hot sun without moving will eventually heat up. Anyway, while we were using the car, everything was normal, and the tint worked fine.
my experience with my sister's factory fitted perodua tint vs my car 3M tint, the difference is very big even parked side by side outside our house. i hope perodua and toyota got their tint from different supplier lol
Uncle, happy to see your video...
from 1 out of 10..would you rate of this new camry? thanks
8.9
@@YSKhongDriving Uncle..woww..impressive..im eager to test drive it soon
I got 5.5L per 100km on my new corolla altis. KL Johor maintain average speed 110kmph.
Im sure this car can do better than 6.8
The camry and corolla have different engine capacity and weight. Can't compare an apple to an orange.
@@Kansiboeng Do you know what is the official fuel consumption for altis? It is 6.4L per 100km. I'm not saying they should be the same, but at least could do better than 6.8L per 100km.
Lain kali nak masuk bagi salam dulu.
@@ridzwanramli5007 I doubt so. Pre Facelift Camry real world fuel consumption was 10.5L/100km so this new one should be at least 8L/100km. Highway 110 maybe 6.5L/100km
@@royalprince5878 6.5L very 👍 already
Whoever afford buying a 200k car fuel consumption is not their main concern or not the major factor to influence them to buy.
If those concern of buying 200k yet concern of fuel consumption that mean they are not ready yet.
Price close to passat with 350Nm torque at 1500rpm..
Cool
Passat has a turbocharged engine & Camry is a natural aspirated engine. Not all consumers will consider engine output as a main criteria to buy a vehicle .
Reliability >>>torque

I owned Passat B8 but never own Camry. Passat almost lose out in all aspects except power and handling. Passat is more for driver while Camry is comfort based but with relatively good handling under TNGA.
Towkay seat. Uncle really enjoy. lol 😊
Always!
This is what i am waiting for Camry. Dynamic Force Engine and 8 speed gearbox. Good upgrade.
Toyota just had to be so good dont they. last few years I was keen on Camrys. now they come out with this masterpiece omaigod. the way youre pushing it, it seemed like youre driving a light tuned sports car!
Lexus ES 250 Luxury for Rm200k instead of Rm300k without the Lexus Badge. Seems like a deal
Camry better for performance because it's lighter maybe by 200kg. Lexus ES is well built and pure Japanese build
Seem like u haven’t drive Lexus before
@@Dane-p8s Of course Lexus will be more luxurious, quality premium and better built (straight from Japanese factory) but Camry uses same platform, suspension, engine and gearbox plus its 200kg lighter. So makes sense to choose Camry. 100k over cheaper btw
@@royalprince5878 its just simple, cant afford lexus then this the best choice lol
Great review,uncle YS 👍
Thank you. Gives me a good feeling to see your comment.
Passat can just smoke this car dude..
Camry 👍👍
Sifu drive this car up genting.. Using sport mode.. Please.. Haha..
Stay tuned.
F I NA L LY . Unkers rejoice!
The looks tho… but still, Unkers rejoice!
Looks are very subjective, but the performance and specs are more contemporary.
Great review Uncle YS. How this compares to its predecessor (ACV51/ACV50) in terms of comfort and driving dynamics? Is the difference very much miles apart?
Comfort level is up a couple of notches, and driving dynamics has improved due to the new engine and 8 speed.
Damn... this car definitely seems to be smoother and much more refined compared to the Accord in your previous video. It makes the Accord look positively trashy and rough around the edges..
And where does the Passat come in???
@@royalprince5878 passat hands down for their exclusive bi-monthly gathering at the service centre
@@HK-gc7xz 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nice review 👍🏽.
This or Passat elegance if safety features is out of the equation. Just by driving dynamics and comfort level?
Difficult choice. This is a Toyota, which would appeal to Toyota loyalists.
@@YSKhongDriving Uncle, waiting for your review, test drive and Genting Run with the new Passat R-Line 2022.
Oh man 2022 is a marvelous year for cars. Camry, Passat R Line, Golf GTI, Golf R, W206 C-Class, BMW i4, HRV and many more exciting cars coming
Go for passat they have exclusive members only bi-monthly gathering at service centre
@@HK-gc7xz 😂😂😂😂
now floating screen
Uncle u only show front and interio back car u not show yet
Its a quick first impression drive
Shut-Up ！
Take my 200K pergi🙃
Thank you. You can order it through us. Special gift.
Very tauke car
should i get this new camry or bmw f10 5 series 2014?😅
If u can bare high maintenance cost... Go ahead for Banyak Masuk Workshop cars.
@@BBoyZaii 🤭🤭🤭🤭
New car, 5 years warranty, new car smell, and no need to tell people why you bought it. What? 200k for a 8 year old car?
@@YSKhongDriving u r right sifuuuu
Btw ths new Camry n Passat R Line, which one s best in class?
Both haha. Camry representing Japan and Passat King of Germany D segment.
@@royalprince5878 yah, agreed 😀
@@selvanathanbalakrishnan6713 Now Toyota is behaving like VW and VW is behaving like Toyota. Finally Camry gets new generation engine. Passat still gets the old EA888 Gen 3 engine. But because it's turbo, we can forgive it 😂😂😂 Both brands have been short-changing Msian consumers. Finally I've respect and positive opinion on Camry. But the 2.5 engine and gearbox are for efficiency and smoothness, I don't expect exciting performance
@@royalprince5878 and most importantly Toyota well known for its reability 👍 thanks a lot for the great info bro 🙏😊
Passat in malaysia is king of service centre next to proton thats for sure
Is very enjoying/relaxing watching your video. Looking forward to replace my continental car back to this japanese car. Current car giving alot of headache, due to its reliability. Lose confidence on it being able to get from Point A to point B and back.Not really into cars, would like to know, is this New engine/8speed in this Camry, will it bring alot of future problems ? Or is it a proven technology/record on its durability/reliability elsewhere?
Toyota is always known for reliability; this engine has been around for about 2 years now and is one of the best. Sometimes you have to take that leap of faith and just go for it.
@@YSKhongDriving thank you for your reply
@@awesomeness3879 What car do you own Bro? What issues
Awesome video as always 👊
Thank you.
Wait for 2nd hand. Then maybe poor like me can buy. Haha
I will say this, for a Toyota, the interior isnt bad. Plus it seems like a good ride.
Uncle,please do a comparison between Toyota Camry and Lexus ES
looking forward to getting this next year, as still contemplating between Harrier vs Camry. decisions decisions. but the new Camry looks gorgeous.
Hi! Mr.YS Khong, just would like to ask for your opinion; if Toyota Camry compare with Honda Accord, which one is better? Which one should we choose?
Depends on what you are looking for. Since this is the Vamry video, the Camry has a great ride, is very comfortable, and has many grear features. Watch our Genting drive video, and later our walkaround. Also stay tuned for a fuel consumption test.
@YS Khong Driving sir… can you do a test drive of the GR Yaris…
There are 3 videos on my channel on the GR Yaris.
@@YSKhongDriving wow… thanks… I’ve just watched it… inspiring indeed… so between the type R and GR… which has a better driving experience???
so quiet...almost cant hear the engine noise.only the tyre noise.NVH is good
Hi Mr Khong, May I know whether the speedo is flashing as seen in the video or isit just the camera video and LED just having a weird interference? Thanks
Camera frame speed and LED speed not synced, happens all the time, so don't worry about it. Our cams run at 24 frames per second, while LEDs run a different pulse.
Lai lai demo car 20k off. So many test drive cars sia.
Can't wait for golf mk8 video
Hahaha, please stay tuned. There's a short one on my tiktok
I'm a Honda guy myself, but to each their own.🤷♂️🤷♀️
That is why the car industry is so vibrant and exciting. Different cars appeal to different people.
👍👍👍
My uncle Mitsubishi Colt 1400 Super Shift already have 8 forward manual transmission, 40 years ago. Twin stick, 1st stick 4 speed normal the 2nd stick for economy or power selection.
Yes, I remember racing in the Tredia Celebrity Race in 1984. It had the same box.
YS Khong. Iloveyou. Pls stay safe n healthy ✌️
Hi… I’m from Sarawak…
Should I get a new Camry or Audi A8L 3.0T 2015?? Please advice….
New car has 5 years warranty, new car smell, and it's a Toyota.
uncle ys, drive your mk5 to genting. must be fast
For me camry is good handling car , interior is so simple and the infotainment also easy to use.
No one but Toyota thought on how to improve the design of the combustion engine. And it happened in 2022.
Actually it was earlier. Just took us a longer time to get it here.
Boss do you agree that Toyota camry is more comfortable than mercedes eclass?
Not too sure because I have not tested the Merc E class, but it sure costs a lot less. Don't get me wrong, the E Class is a great car.
@@YSKhongDriving But in terms of Comfort Camry aheading Eclass
@@Afeeq666 Haiyaa new gen Merc langsung tarak comfort. Don't talk about Camry, even Passat is so much more comfortable and stable than C Class. Even beats E Class. So Camry is definitely much better.
@@royalprince5878 You're absolutely right. How come the newer Mercs are so stiff and firm in terms of ride and handling? Really sacrifice a lot of comfort. C-class and especially A-class even crashes through uneven road undulations like they're some cheap cars.
@@jswong8200 W205 sucks. Wait for W206 launch next week. I heard amazing reviews on ride comfort on the Europe and US versions.
Uncle YS, I am planning to change car. Shortlisted CRV 2WD high spec & camry . Which will you recommend for daily work & family use. Thanks.
The two are totally different from each other. One is a SUV and the other is a sedan. Other than going to work, what are your other needs?
@@YSKhongDriving Understood that both are diff type of vehicle. Just a bit dilemma to decide. family use & travel once a while.
@@justingoh4369 sorry for barging in.. if you prefer driving i guess camry is the one to take..the current set up of the camry makes it a drivers car already he he..plus you got the factor of toyota's reliability too..if i were to be given a choice i wont hesitate to go for the camry..its the total package right now hehe.
@@mcmac9565 Yeah Camry is much better than CRV. It is definitely much better driver's car with amazing driving dynamics, handling and pleasure. It is also far more comfortable. Tested CRV 1.5 AWD and the ride is soft it wallows on road and too floaty and surprisingly jumped into the bumps and potholes too harshly.
your wife will feel "tawkay" at the back and she will love you for that... hahaha i think beat CRV easily. unless you are camping kaki which SUV might win in this
Try Up genting then turun genting 🤣
Is the Camry or CX8 a better buy for a family of 3? Occasionally picking up the grandparents as well for makan outings.
Both are great vehicles. The Camry would be more comfortable, while the CX8 has lots of space just pick one
SGD 165k became 180k++
Because SG have to pay more COE and duties.
@@YSKhongDriving Can buy Lexus LS
whu Honda accord sale is higher than camry in US
We do not have the sales statistics for USA, so we cannot comment.
Love it!
Arteon or Camry ?
Waiting for accord bring in 2.0 turbo with 10at to fight Camry
Good, if that happens. Healthy competition is good for the market. I also want a Camry with 2.0 turbo, 8 speed also enough.
Finally Toyota got rid of the badly integrated console in the center.
Now it's on par with Mazda 6.
Uncle YS. please compare your thoughts it with Camry 2016 Hybrid and the current VW Arteon R-Line 4 Motion.
My opinion. Camry Hybrid 2016,
- overly floaty suspension to a point it's annoying,
- horrible Toyota console that is 12 years obsolete.
- Boring CVT, seats and below average
- wabbly steering during high speed / highways. Too loose steering control.
- performs bad during heavy rain,
Why the Speedo meter seems like blinking all the time?
Video frequency vs LED frequency
Really impressed with toyota camry...
Apple Car Play / Android Auto can only be connected through wire?? For a RM199,109 car, it's unacceptable...
just a small thing, why so whiny about it
Lexus also wired only. Normal for nippon brands they claim saves your battery.
Is it a deal breaker?
@@YSKhongDriving for this segment? I don't think so uncle..
Want Wireless App Connect, get Passat. Haha small thing only
Still impressed at the adjustable backseats
I wonder if the driver can disable the music controls of the “Tauke”. Just imagine the ruckus if you have 2 kids at the back fighting for the music selection 😂
Donno about that. Need a front disable button. Will look for it. Perhaps in the settings. If I were you, i'd buy it first, worry about it later, lol.
@@YSKhongDriving Actually I was looking at the A Class or 3 series. Problem solved when Mercedes announced that no more A Class in the future. So i will likely get it coz Im not sure if i can afford a C class in the future. Kiasu ness made me close 1 eye to the FWD (i guess not a real Benz). But having driven the A250 ..... its powerful enough. You did a walkaround video but never the drive video. If you are free, do try please .... coz i havent made the booking, waiting for the facelift.
HONDA CIVIC 2022 WHEN?
Uncle look like tauke in the backseat
Hahaha.
It’s a Taxi in Dubai
Wow! 209PS 253 Torq!
Terbaik
I think it's RM195k. or. RM203K,
The price has been announced and it was in the description. RM199k, so your guess is spot on!
Wow! 209Ps
uncle about the midrange rpm power & responsiveness, which one is better, accord (has turbo but cvt) or this new engined camry (has 8 speed but na engine)?
I think the Accord has a bit better response in terms of get up and go, but some of it is taken up by the cvt.
Camry is more powerful. than Accord based on top speed and acceleration. Acceleration for Camry is 7.6 seconds while top speed is 217 km/h. Whereas for Accord, acceleration is 9 seconds and top speed is 190 km/h
@@emilylimsl9884 thats huge diff
At this price range I would settle with Passat 2.0 with more torque, continental handling
But can Passat R Line outrival Camry in the ride comfort department? Haha that's tricky. Only Uncle can answer 😂😂
If you are a biz owner with packed schedule you would rather settle with this rather than vw visiting workshop at least once in a while. Speaking as an owner of 2.0Tsi 😂
@@GrandSavrify Which VW model owner are you? 2.0 TSI? So many models. Pls be specific ya
@@royalprince5878 of course camry will be the quietest and most comfortable but passat would’t be out right jaring and rough, my Jetta 1.4 HL can outperform Camry most of the time, especially during Genting climb with little effort ✌️😊
But Camry is affordable and gets many features with new engine
Which is a better car , this Camry or Harrier?
This Camry.
Seems lack of torque power...
253 Nm is quite good.
Camry new or arteon used
New car got new car smell, 5 year warranty.
Could we get the hybrid soon?
No news.
Passat or Camry?
Take your pick.
I see you viedos Accord Turbo climb genting and this new camry who is powerful??
The power is very close.
Accord 1.5T only. Slightly lower horsepower, torque 10Nm higher. But available from lower revs. But since it's CVT, it really sucks. The CVT holds back the pure power. So Camry has an upper hand so overall power should be marginally lower which is acceptable. But the 8 speed torque converter automatic transmission is good.
Got 360 cam?
Yes
200k quite expensive
Then we can buy a Vios
But less than RM200k for Camry facelift is not bad and affordable. Just that because Camry facelift comes with new powerful dynamic force engine compare to Camry pre facelift
Just 7 to 8 years ago, Camry was the "laggard" in the D segment market. When all other competitors were offering 5 or 6 speed tranny, with multiple airbags even for their base models, Camry's 2.0 came with a 4 speeder, 2 airbags and no traction control! But now, looking at this video, the Camry is definitely back in business. The D segment may not be as sprightly as it used to be due to the increasing popularity of C segment SUVs, but the segment still has a few gems to offer, this Camry included. Great driving uncle!
What a fugly dashboard
I thought it looked good. Maybe you are too young for this car, hahaha.
New Camry are threat to Accord
That is why all car companies consistently improve their products. It's called healthy competitio
hi uncle, do you think those who bought the pre-facelift will feel regret?
Not really. It is also a nice car.
I bought the pre-facelift in 2019, so far no regret...
@@stevenyen9463 same here! after 3 years still solid, comfort and fun to drive.
@@stevenyen9463 glad to hear it....because i'm driving one soon hahahha
I'm not impressed with the 8 speed. It's jerky at low speed and can't decide which gear to go to at higher speeds . Only advantage is slightly better fuel. I rather prefer the 6 speed previous model
Helps fuel economy.
@@YSKhongDriving yes I mentioned that but at the expense of poorer driving experience
Please compare it with VW Arteon 4-Motion when testing on Genting road in your next video on this. It's close to that category without the AWD, quality interior, and better designed center console that is not obsolete, understeer, annoying floaty feel that is not good for Malaysia roads with extreme undulations.
The upgraded old japanese gearbox and engine is good. If it's priced like the old camry hybrid 2016, then VW Arteon will not be in the category.
Thank you Uncle YS.
The price is just under 200k. The Arteon R line is totally different, although they are the same price. Cannot compare.
@@YSKhongDriving , only thing that worries is the maintenance. 50k+ difference for a AWD would seem to be a better choice if maintenance is good. Should know soon. No rush. :)
Thank you Uncle YS.
@@darnielng I don't get you. Which car are you referring to on understeer and floating?
@@royalprince5878 Camry Hybrid.
