Toyota’s San Antonio plant is making waves once again with a massive growth update. In July 2026, Toyota Motor North America announced a $3.6 billion investment aimed at expanding their San Antonio plant and adding jobs for anyone ready to construct new Toyota models.
Toyota Gifts 2,000 New Jobs to San Antonio
Economic growth and job opportunities are top priorities for working families. High-quality jobs mean better living conditions, family time, and financial confidence. A $3.6 billion investment into Toyota’s San Antonio facility is fantastic news for Texas residents.
This multi-year effort expands Toyota Texas by 2.5 million square feet. It introduces 2,000 new positions alongside advanced equipment for technicians assembling next-generation vehicles. The full transition will take about four years.
Ted Ogawa, president and CEO of TMNA, expressed his optimism: "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 Abbott also shared his enthusiasm: "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." One major win is that the Tacoma, Tundra, and Sequoia will all be assembled together in Texas.
Toyota has invested $8.3 billion in San Antonio since launching construction in 2003. This reflects the high level of confidence Toyota places in the local community.
