Ways Toyota’s Plants are Manufacturing Strong Communities
London, 9 October 2023, (Oilandgaspress) – Toyota has been part of the cultural fabric in the U.S. for more than 65 years and has created a tremendous value chain, with $38.58 billion direct investment in the U.S. There are nearly 1,500 dealerships and more than 184,000 people working across the country.
There are nine Toyota manufacturing plants in the U.S. By the end of 2025, there will be a 10th – Toyota Battery Manufacturing, North Carolina, which is set to advance Toyota’s vision to help reduce carbon emissions through hybrid and battery electric vehicles (BEVs). Toyota’s total investment in Toyota North Carolina is $5.9 billion.
Toyota’s employees have contributed to the designs, engineering and assembly of nearly 45 million Toyota and Lexus cars and trucks in North America.
Electrified
Toyota has more electrified vehicles on the road than any other automaker – offering 26 electrified options. In May, Toyota announced it will build an all-new, three row battery electric SUV at Toyota Kentucky starting in 2025. The company’s first U.S.-assembled BEV will be powered by batteries from Toyota North Carolina.
Investing in the Future
Since 2021, Toyota has announced new investments totaling $10.1 billion into our U.S. manufacturing operations to support electrification efforts.
Community Focused
Through its Driving Possibilities initiative, the Toyota USA Foundation has committed millions to create innovative educational programs within and in partnership with historically underserved and diverse communities near the company’s operating sites. The aim is to close educational gaps for all students through innovative, hands-on STEM programming that leverages unique assets and resources in the equal-partner relationship. Huntsville, Alabama is the fifth site to launch Driving Possibilities programming.
STEM-Based Learning
To help inspire the next generation for a career in STEM-based fields, including mobility, Toyota launched its virtual education resources page at TourToyota.com with an immersive experience and a chance to virtually tour nine of its U.S. manufacturing facilities. The hub also includes a series of free STEM-based lessons and curriculum through Toyota USA Foundation partners and more.
