As an aside...
I wonder if the 2010 (mid-cycle refreshed) Camry will use this new engine, and if it will be the optional engine in the Corolla and Matrix also? In other words, is this new engine the replacement for all current uses of the 2.4-litre 2AZ engine? Will it also replace the 2AZ-FXE in the Camry Hybrid?
Back on topic...
I wonder why the delay? Is it to give North American plants the proper time to ramp up production, without rushing and affecting quality? Could they not have planned it better so that North American (American production of the new engine and Canadian production of the mid-cycle refreshed RAV4) production would have been available at the start of the RAV4's new model year (or delayed introducing the 2009 RAV4)?
