Their target market is the military - which has plenty of kerosene / jet / diesel fuels as part of its standard supply chain. The Camry engine will only run on gasoline - which the military neither carries, nor wants to.

Toyota makes some great diesel engines (they don't put them to the US bound products in general), which could run on jet fuel with some small modifications.
