Toyota is all geared to strengthen its presence in the Indian car market. It shall launch its all new Toyota Corolla by the end of 2008. The new model shall have sleeker body with fine exteriors and interiors too revved up to beat the competition from Honda Civic and Skoda Octavia in the D segment.

Toyota is the world's largest car manufacturing company by sales, however, it has only 3 percent market share in India.
