These launches underscore Toyota’s commitment to offering advanced, eco-friendly mobility solutions under its Multi-Pathway approach, which includes Internal Combustion Engine (ICE), Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV), and the sporty GR Sport variant.
The 2025 Camry is a redefined sedan that sets a new benchmark for the D-segment. It boasts a blend of luxury, cutting-edge technology, and exceptional performance. Under the hood, the Camry features the 2.5 HEV powertrain, powered by Toyota’s 5th-generation Hybrid System, which pairs the Dynamic Force Engine with a compact electric transaxle and a lithium-ion battery. This combination delivers enhanced power, reduced emissions, and superior fuel efficiency, providing an eco-conscious yet powerful driving experience.
On the exterior, the Camry’s design is inspired by the sleek Toyota Crown, featuring a bold “Hammerhead” front design, aerodynamic air curtains, and a wide lower grille that gives it a dynamic and modern stance. Inside, the Camry is equipped with luxurious upgrades, such as ventilated front seats, a redesigned steering wheel, and a state-of-the-art 12.3-inch multimedia display that offers Wireless Apple CarPlay and Wired Android Auto connectivity. A matching 12.3-inch Multi-Information Display (MID) provides essential vehicle data, keeping the driver informed. The Camry 2.5 HEV is priced at RM248,800 and is available in six premium colours, including new shades like Cement Grey and Dark Blue Mica.

Available in three variants—1.8V, 1.8 HEV, and 1.8 HEV GR Sport—the Corolla Cross is powered by Toyota’s Hybrid Electric System, offering smooth and efficient driving performance. The GR Sport variant adds a specially tuned suspension and performance brace for improved handling, making it a standout option for driving enthusiasts.
Exterior updates include a striking new front grille, sportier Bi-LED headlamps, and a redesigned bumper. The GR Sport variant distinguishes itself with an exclusive two-tone black roof. Inside, the Corolla Cross boasts elegant dark brown accents, a 12.3-inch MID, and a 10.1-inch Display Audio system, all with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for seamless connectivity.
