Toyota Motor Corp announces plans to build a new $3.6 billion auto plant in Texas and to move some truck production from Mexico to the United States. The company says the facility will be a 2.5-million-square-foot site located on its San Antonio manufacturing campus. Toyota also states that the production shift will bring some of its truck output closer to U.S. operations, without detailing specific truck models in the available excerpts.
The announcements come alongside official U.S. responses, with outlets noting that the White House highlights the project. Toyota describes the investment as part of its manufacturing expansion in Texas, positioning the plant as a major addition to its existing footprint in San Antonio.
While the timing of the plant’s start is mentioned only partially in the provided material, all sources point to the same core elements: a large capital investment in Texas, the new plant’s size and location, and the relocation of certain truck production from Mexico to the U.S.
