Toyota Motor Corp. will further expand production of electric vehicle parts at plants in West Virginia and Tennessee with a $90 million investment.
The latest upgrade involves spending $73 million at the plant to annually assemble an estimated 120,000 rear motor stators, a key component in electric motors.
Toyota will spend $17 million to increase the production capacity for hybrid transaxle cases and housings at its nearly 400-worker facility in Jackson, Tennessee.
David Rosier, president of Toyota Motor Manufacturing West Virginia, noted that Toyota is moving quickly toward an electrified future, and West Virginia will play a critical role in that journey
The automaker said it is committed to offering electric vehicles across its lineup of Toyota and Lexus vehicles by 2025.
Three months ago, the Japanese automaker announced it would invest $240 million for a hybrid powertrain-dedicated production line at its facility in Buffalo, West Virginia.
Toyota also plans to build a new $1.29 billion factory in the U.S. to manufacture batteries for hybrid and fully electric vehicles.
