Toyota to invest $3.6B in San Antonio plant, adding 2,000 jobs
Toyota Motor North America announced a $3.6 billion expansion of its San Antonio manufacturing campus that will add a second vehicle assembly line for Tacoma truck production and create 2,000 jobs.
The expansion will add 2.5 million square feet to the Toyota Texas facility, doubling its size by 2030, according to a company statement. Toyota (NYSE: TM) said it will transition Tacoma production from its Baja California plant to San Antonio over approximately four years.
The San Antonio plant currently assembles the Tundra and Sequoia on a single production line and is preparing to begin operations at a new rear axle facility this fall. With the expansion, the local workforce is expected to grow to approximately 6,000 team members, supported by 23 on-site suppliers.
The investment brings Toyota's total spending at the San Antonio campus to $8.3 billion since the plant broke ground in 2003. The facility assembled more than 197,000 vehicles in 2025.
"By expanding our San Antonio plant, we are deepening our commitment to American manufacturing, creating meaningful and sustainable jobs," said Ted Ogawa, president and CEO of Toyota Motor North America.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott said the expansion is supported by the Texas Enterprise Fund and the state's JETI program. Toyota said it also encourages a resolution to USMCA trade terms to strengthen North American competitiveness.
