This move demonstrates Toyota’s determination to address global climate change and promote the green energy revolution.
The plant is one of Toyota’s largest manufacturing bases in the United States, primarily producing batteries for electric vehicles and hybrid cars. With this additional investment, the total investment in the plant will reach approximately $13.9 billion and employ over 5,000 employees. This initiative will further enhance Toyota’s competitiveness in the electric vehicle sector and promote rapid development of the U.S. electric vehicle market.

However, through continuous technological research and development and investment, Toyota has also successfully developed a variety of efficient and environmentally friendly electric and hybrid vehicles, providing global consumers with greener and smarter travel options.
