India launch is expected for the 9th-gen Camry
Although the Toyota Camry's popularity in India has waned, it still manages to sell approximately 150-200 units per month. Should Toyota introduce the new generation Camry to India, local assembly is expected to continue, with a potential new price tag of around Rs. 55 lakh (ex-showroom).
