The Cami (Japanese: キ ャ ミ; 2WD: J122G ; 4WD: J102G ) is an SUV from the Japanese automobile manufacturer Toyota . This was introduced in May 1999 and was mainly reserved for the Japanese market. However, it was also offered in some smaller markets (in Europe for example in Malta ). The Cami is a sister model of the Daihatsu Terios , Dario Terios and the Daihatsu Terios Kid .

With its sporty design, the Cami was aimed at young customers. The selectable all-wheel drive and the UV radiation filtering windscreen contributed to this. In terms of transmissions, the customer could choose between a 5-speed manual transmission and a 4-speed automatic transmission.

Despite this offer, the Daihatsu Terios sold far better. An unjustified recall of vehicles of this model in the Osaka area also contributed to this .

One year after the start of production, the Cami received 1.3-liter K3 (4-cylinder SOHC16) engines with 103 kW / 140 PS. Further improvements followed in January 2002. After several years of unsuccessful production, the model was abandoned in October 2005 and production finally stopped in December.

The successor to the Cami finally came in January 2006, the Toyota Rush developed in cooperation with Daihatsu (Daihatsu: Be‣go ).
