Great news is spreading across Texas following an announcement about Toyota's San Antonio assembly plant. In July 2026, Toyota Motor North America shared plans for a $3.6 billion investment to expand the facility and open up new career paths for workers helping construct the next era of Toyota vehicles.
Toyota Gifts 2,000 New Jobs to San Antonio
Career prospects are a primary concern for workers across the country. Secure, rewarding employment allows individuals to support their families, afford good housing, and enjoy vacations. When Toyota puts $3.6 billion into a plant expansion, it creates massive positive outcomes for Texans.
The expansion initiative adds 2.5 million square feet of space to Toyota Texas. It introduces 2,000 new jobs and provides state-of-the-art equipment so technicians can craft high-quality vehicles. Bringing all elements together will take approximately four years.
Ted Ogawa, president and CEO of TMNA, made sure to share his gratitude and enthusiasm: "Toyota's continued investment in North America is a testament to our confidence in the region's workforce, innovation, and long-term growth potential. By expanding our San Antonio plant, we are deepening our commitment to American manufacturing, creating meaningful and sustainable jobs, while advancing our mission to deliver high-quality vehicles that meet the changing needs of customers today and into the future."
Governor Greg Abbott offered high praise for Toyota's expansion: "Texas is where the world builds bigger, and Toyota shows it once more with a $3.6 billion expansion in San Antonio that doubles their factory footprint and creates 2,000 new jobs." Moving forward, the Tacoma, Sequoia, and Tundra will all be produced right here in San Antonio.
Since 2003, when Toyota broke ground in Texas, total investments in San Antonio operations have surpassed $8.3 billion. This ongoing financial commitment highlights Toyota’s strong belief in San Antonio’s workforce and community.
