The Globe and Mail reports in its Tuesday edition that Toyota is planning to build a new $3.6-billion (U.S.) auto plant in Texas and shift some truck production to the United States from Mexico. A Reuters dispatch to The Globe says Japanese carmaker's new 2.5-million-square-foot building will be located on its San Antonio manufacturing campus and will open by 2030, creating 2,000 jobs. The company said it will move production of its midsize Tacoma pickup truck from Mexico to Texas when the factory is completed. Toyota will continue to build Tacoma trucks at its Guanajuato plant in Mexico. Toyota already produces Tundra trucks and SUVs at its existing San Antonio assembly plant on the site where the new facility will be built and a new rear axle plant is set to open in the autumn. U.S. President Donald Trump has pressured automakers to move auto production to the United States and has hiked tariffs on autos, steel, aluminum and parts. Toyota said it remains committed to its operations throughout Mexico, Canada and the U.S. and urged Mr. Trump to extend a North American free trade deal that automakers say is critical to integrated auto production. In 2020, Toyota moved Tacoma production from San Antonio to Guanajuato.
