2016 Camry 2.0 Turbo engine evidence mounts - Torque News
Way back in 2013 Torque News reported that we could read the in tea leaves that the Camry would be getting a 2. 0-liter, four-cylinder turbocharged engine. Our first hint was the announcement that Lexus would introduce a new compact crossover powered by a turbocharged engine. First, it was evidence that Lexus and Toyota would supplant a V6 with a turbo four. Second, the engine is mounted in the opposite way in the IS 200t. So Toyota/Lexus has gone to the trouble of configuring the new engine both ways, transversely in the NX 200t and longitudinally in the IS 200t. Having done that hard work already,... While most love the Camry’s smooth and powerful V6, most also skip it when they shop and take home the four-cylinder engine. As much as I personally love the V6 Camry, I have driven the NX 200t, and I also loved that engine in that vehicle. So, here’s hoping that when the Camry 2. 0T arrives in the coming year Toyota is wise enough to tune it for regular unleaded fuel like both Hyundai and Ford do with their mainstream turbocharged cars.
