Toyota is planning to launch the 8th generation of its flagship sedan the Camry for India in 2019. The Gen 8 Toyota Camry (XV70) was first introduced to the world at the 2017 North American International Auto Show in Detroit. The new Camry is based out of Toyota’s GA-K platform, which is a derivative of the Toyota New Generation Global Architecture (TNGA). The new Camry is longer, wider and lower than its predecessor.
The new Camry for India is likely to continue as a hybrid in India, with the updated hybrid setup of 2.5-litre four-pot petrol and electric motor combining for 205 bhp. Toyota has claimed that the new Camry hybrid is as efficient as a Prius.
Expect the new Camry to arrive in India sometime in the middle of 2019, priced close to Rs 32 lakh for the standard model, while the hybrid version may have you to shell out about Rs 5-6 lakh more, taking the price to Rs 38 lakh (all prices, ex-showroom).
