New Delhi: Japanese car giant Toyota today launched next generation of premium sedan Camry in India at an introductory price of Rs 23.8 lakh (ex showroom Delhi).

The company, which is present in India through a joint venture with the Kirloskar group, will be assembling the car at its Bangalore facility.

"This is the seventh generation of Camry. We will be manufacturing it locally in India so that it can be available easily," Toyota Kirloskar Motor (TKM) Managing Director Hiroshi Nakagawa told reporters here.

The model is currently being manufactured at 10 locations across the world and Bangalore will be the eleventh production base, he added.

The company has launched the new Camry with a 2.5 litre petrol engine with a 6 speed automatic transmission.
