New Toyota Engine Plant in Indonesia to Go Online in First Half of 2016
Production to Expand Beyond IMV Series Engines
Toyota City, Japan, July 24, 2013―Toyota Motor Corporation (TMC) announces that its vehicle production subsidiary in Indonesia, PT. Toyota Motor Manufacturing Indonesia (TMMIN), is to start producing engines for vehicles other than the IMV* series at a new engine plant due to go online in the first half of 2016. The site for the new plant, near TMMIN's Karawang plants, was acquired last year.
The new engine plant will have an annual production capacity of 216,000 engines. Approximately 23 billion yen is to be invested in the plant, for which approximately 400 new employees are to be hired.
TMMIN currently produces engines for IMV series vehicles at its Plant 1 Sunter for export to other ASEAN countries, as well as to Latin America and Africa. Engines for standard passenger cars produced at the new plant will also be exported, thereby furthering Indonesia's position as a key engine production and supply base.
Toyota, based on its founding principle of contributing to society through the manufacture of automobiles, aims to continue to develop products that satisfy Indonesian consumers while endeavoring to contribute to the expansion of the Indonesian automotive industry.
