Cambridge Will Begin Making the RAV4 in 2019

Cambridge will also start making the RAV4 once Corolla production moves to Mexico.

Toyota workers in Cambridge will also start making the RAV4.

An announcement from Toyota this morning says the sports utility vehicle will be made in Cambridge starting in 2019 to replace the Corolla - Corolla production is moving down to Mexico. Cambridge will also continue production on the Lexus RX. The company also announced that it will be adding hybrid RAV4 production.

At the end of July Toyota announced plans to spend $421 million in Cambridge to help with the launch of next generation Lexus RX 350. The provincial and federal governments are putting up about $100 million of that total cost.

"We forecast that the segment will continue to demonstrate strong growth with the RAV4 being a major player," Jim Lentz, CEO of Toyota Motor North America, said in a press release.

Woodstock will continue production on the RAV4 as well.
