In 2019 Toyota announced a US$391 million investment in Toyota Texas, a plant near San Antonio originally built to make the popular Tundra pickup truck.

The latest Tundra and Sequoia are now built exclusively in Texas. The 3,800 Toyota employees and 5,300 on site suppliers spent thousands of hours preparing for the new SUV’s debut. Changes include laser welding and a modified production process to stamp the largest metal sheet in Toyota history.

The redesigned, three-row Sequoia SUV reaches US dealerships next month and launches with the Capstone grade, a trim level exclusive to vehicles manufactured in Texas.
