By GlobalDataSince 2021, Toyota has announced new investments totalling $18.6 billion into its US manufacturing operations to support electrification efforts. Increasing BEV production in the U.S. advances Toyota’s portfolio approach to electrification.
Governor Eric J. Holcomb said: “Indiana and Toyota share a nearly 30-year partnership that has cultivated job stability and economic opportunity in Princeton and the surrounding southwest Indiana region for decades.”
The investment into Toyota Indiana is the second such announcement this year. It comes after a $1.3 billion investment in Toyota Kentucky for the production of a separate all-new, three row battery electric SUV.
