Toyota Motor Manufacturing West Virginia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Toyota Motor Manufacturing West Virginia is a Toyota Motor Corporation factory in Buffalo, West Virginia. It is estimated to date, the company has spent nearly US$1 billion to build the automobile engine and transmission plant. The plant solely builds engines and transmissions; no vehicles are produced at this facility.

In February 2021, Toyota Motor Corp announced it would invest $210 million to expand engine production in West Virginia and add 100 new jobs.

The Japanese automaker said it would boost capacity by 70,000 engines a year at the Buffalo, West Virginia plant, up from the nearly 1 million transmissions and engines it produces annually for vehicles assembled in North America.[1]
