Opel Omega 2001 vs Toyota Camry 2017
| Gearbox: | Automatic | Automatic | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Engine: | 2.5 Diesel | 2.5 Petrol | |
| Diesel (Opel Omega) engines typically outperform gasoline engines in terms of fuel efficiency and low-end torque. This makes them more economical and better suited for towing or long-distance travel. However, gasoline (Toyota Camry) engines mostly are lighter, quieter, and offer better acceleration and responsiveness, especially in smaller vehicles. For more information, see the article "Diesel or Petrol: Fuel Economy and Key Differences." | |||

| Power: | 150 HP | 181 HP | |
| Torque: | 300 NM | 231 NM | |
| Acceleration 0-100 km/h: | 11 seconds | 9 seconds | |
|
Toyota Camry is a more dynamic driving. Opel Omega engine produces 31 HP less power than Toyota Camry, but torque is 69 NM more than Toyota Camry. Due to the lower power, Opel Omega reaches 100 km/h speed 2 seconds later. | |||
Fuel consumption | |||
| Fuel consumption (l/100km): | 8.6 | 8.3 | |

Drive type | |||
| Wheel drive type: | Rear wheel drive (RWD) | Front wheel drive (FWD) | |
| Front-wheel drive cars (Toyota Camry) have better traction on slippery roads and when climbing hills, better fuel economy, and are less expensive to purchase. On the disadvantage side, FWD cars usually have less towing capacity, poorer acceleration and harder handling. Rear-wheel drive cars (Opel Omega) have better handling on dry roads, better acceleration, more even weight distribution and more fun to drive. RWD is also better for towing large loads. The cons of rear-wheel drive are less interior and trunk space and more difficulty maneuvering in wet and snowy conditions. | |||
| Ground clearance: | 140 mm (5.5 inches) | 127 mm (5 inches) | |
| Because of the higher ground clearance, Opel Omega can perform better on bad roads - it can go over higher obstacles and bumps. At the same time, the higher ground clearance can reduce stability and handling on paved roads, especially at higher speeds. Note, however, that this Opel Omega version does not have 4x4 drive, which is very important in poor road conditions. | |||
| Toyota Camry 2017 2.5 engine: The 2.5-liter 2AR-FE engine replaced the earlier 2.4-liter AZ series and is widely regarded as a highly reliable, long-lasting engine, often referred to as a "million-kms" motor. However, it requires ... More about Toyota Camry 2017 2.5 engine | |||
