Toyota Venza starts production in Kentucky

All aspects of Venza’s engineering and design were targeted specifically for the North American market, the only place where it will be sold. Venza was primarily engineered at Toyota Technical Center in Ann Arbor, Mich., and designed at Toyota’s Calty Design studios in Newport Beach, Calif. and Ann Arbor.

TMMK has the capacity to build about 70,000 Venzas per year. The plant’s manufacturing flexibility allows the Venza to be built on the same assembly line with the Camry and Solara convertible. More than 30 Kentucky-based suppliers will supply parts for the Venza including seats and glass components.

Toyota Venza's overall domestic content is approximately 70%.

TMMK is Toyota’s largest plant in North America employing about 7,000 team members with the annual capacity to produce 500,000 engines and vehicles.
