Toyota Motor North America (TMNA) said it will invest $3.6 billion to expand its San Antonio manufacturing campus with a second vehicle assembly line to support the Tacoma truck.
The company said the expansion will create 2,000 new jobs and add 2.5 million square feet to Toyota Texas, doubling its size by 2030.
TMNA will transition Tacoma production from Toyota Motor Manufacturing Baja California (TMMBC) to the expanded Toyota Texas plant over an approximate four-year period.
This latest investment will add another assembly line to the campus at Toyota Texas, which already includes a vehicle assembly line and new rear axle plant that is nearing startup.
This expansion brings Toyota's total investment in San Antonio to $8.3 billion since breaking ground in 2003. The new facility will enable increased flexibility for the plant through advanced manufacturing technologies and will align with Toyota's broader North American operations.
Toyota's local workforce will climb to approximately 6,000 team members, supported by 23 on-site suppliers and their employees.
