What engine does the Camry use?
2 Answers
The Camry uses the M20C model engine. The working principle of the engine: 1. Mix air and gasoline in a certain proportion to form a combustible mixture; 2. The intake stroke draws the mixture into the cylinder, where it is compressed, ignited, and burned to generate thermal energy; 3. The high-temperature and high-pressure gas acts on the top of the piston, driving the piston to perform reciprocating linear motion, and the mechanical energy is output externally through the connecting rod, crankshaft, and flywheel mechanism. Taking the 2019 Elite Edition Camry as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4885mm, width 1840mm, height 1455mm, wheelbase 2825mm, fuel tank capacity 60L, trunk capacity 593L, and curb weight 1530kg.
As a Camry owner, I understand that engine configuration is quite crucial. The Camry primarily uses a 2.5-liter Dynamic Force gasoline engine with a four-cylinder design, combining direct injection and Dual VVT-i technology, delivering around 200 horsepower. Daily driving offers smooth acceleration, with an average fuel consumption of about 7L/100km, making it ideal for commuting. In the hybrid version, it pairs with an electric motor to form the THS system, achieving higher overall efficiency and reducing fuel consumption to below 5L/100km. The battery charges quickly and requires minimal maintenance. The gasoline version has long maintenance intervals, and in five years of ownership, I've experienced very few issues. The engine operates quietly, and high-speed stability is excellent. Toyota's reliability is strong, making the Camry suitable for everything from family use to business travel. I recommend test-driving it to experience the power match, with daily fuel efficiency and peace of mind being its standout features.
