Toyota has begun producing the RAV-4 hybrid at its Georgetown, Kentucky plant, the company's largest North American manufacturing site. The facility also broke ground on a new advanced paint shop that Toyota says will cut carbon emissions by 30% and save roughly 1.5 million gallons of water each year. The move expands hybrid vehicle output in the U.S. and ties manufacturing upgrades to measurable environmental improvements. The company also announced a $500,000 grant to Bluegrass Community and Technical College for a regional workforce training center. With nearly 10,000 employees, Toyota Kentucky continues to invest in both production capacity and local workforce development, supporting the broader shift toward electrified vehicles.
