2021 Toyota Sienna and Highlander Production in the United States

- čas přidán 7. 09. 2024
- Toyota announced an $803 million investment at its Princeton, Indiana auto-manufacturing plant is in preparation to introduce two, all-new yet-to-be-named vehicles to its current line-up, one being a Toyota and the second a Lexus. This investment and product diversification will also add approximately 1,400 new jobs at Toyota Indiana.
TMMI will focus on production of mid-size SUVs and minivans including the Toyota Highlander, Highlander Hybrid and the Toyota Sienna. TMMI will cease production of the Toyota Sequoia by 2022.
The $803 million investment will be used to prepare the manufacturing line for the new vehicles, production-employee training, as well as provide supplier re-tooling at their facilities. Since the first Tundra - the original Toyota Motor Manufacturing Indiana vehicle - rolled off the production line in 1998, Toyota’s total investment in the Princeton site is $6.6 billion. The plant has the capacity to assemble more than 420,000 vehicles annually.

How much months salary in USA. ..?
Scotty Kilmer is Happy 😃
I love my 2020 Highlander! Its one the most comfortable cars to travel in!!!
It is good to see American employees back at work and helping make reliable vehicles again.
America making reliable cars? Since when???
@@sammmyds39 notice how he said American employees, not American auto engineering … big difference
@@SME5724 the american brands are made in mexico (ford) or china (buick) funnily enough, most japanese brands are built in the US for any north american models.
@@bradhaines3142 yea isn’t that something ?
It’s crazy to watch all the work that goes into building these and just watch em roll off into the transporters so quietly.
So glad I work in a power train plant. Couldnt imagine climbing in and out of cars all day long
My dad works their it’s so COOL
Highlander, if it became a plug in , it would be the best ever
I think there is a hybrid version
if we can get a full EV of 70+ kwa that would be awesome
@@SothyRSem
100%
Would love a Highlander Prime. 28Kw battery, 40+ miles of EV.
@@Digital_Trabby the hybrid isnt plug in though, not enough motor and battery.
Nice plant. I really like new highlander and new sienna
КРУТО!!!! Надо признать такого крутого завода в России нет… а жаль… ФАНТАСТИЧЕСКАЯ РОБОТИЗАЦИЯ И УДОБСТВО РАБОТЫ ДЛЯ ЛЮДЕЙ !!!!!!!!!!
Who would have thought buying Toyota means buying american. Meanwhile, buying GM and Ford means buying Canadian and Mexican.
buick has more than a few models made in china and boated over actually
They need to add the Andon music for Maintenance/team lead/group lead/parts/QC etc. louder in the video so people watching the video but don’t work at Toyota can also get the preschool lullaby’s and songs stuck in their head, in their dreams, in the nightmares... those things are constantly going, you hear people yelling “just turn it off maintenance isn’t coming” 🤣
That and the chirping of the robots when they fault out. I work in west weld internal logistics and the andon music is always blaring somewhere.
LMAO, Yes exactly! Im not coming, just turn it off!
After about a month, I learned to “tune out” the andon music.
Highlander XSE 😘 👌
Damn! First time seeing how vehicles were built… I'm impressed by how organized the Toyota factory is and the use of robotics used to assist the assembly of those vehicles. However, I'm very excited to be getting my factory ordered (an end of March order) Highlander 2021 V6 platinum soon. I was notified that I would be getting it delivered by the first week of June or sooner, which surprised me because I thought longer due to the pandemic - impressed!!
Got a 2021 Limited Hybrid in April. It's an amazing vehicle. Hope you enjoy yours
Lol hope it’s one of the ones I worked on! It’s a 50/50 shot if I helped produce it 😂. Depends on which shift it came in on lol
@@dylanbollinger8599Well I just hope you didn't miss a screw or two, 😂🤣... However, I'm getting my Highlander tomorrow, so excited. I already looked at it the other day, but wasn't ready as they need to clean and add my accessories. My baby is Blizzard Pearl with Harvest Beige interior and it looked amazing. It's the first time I seen the beige interior, nobody had one in stock near me as its more popular to have black interiors in Ontario, Canada.
The masks on the outside of the face shield 😆
impressive automation
Love the guy who had the mask on the outside of the face shield🤣🤣🤣🤣😷😷😷
they have to, it’s standard
Testing showed it to be as effective worn that way as the mask worn the standard way.
It was a girl😀
Highlander made in America for America since 2000
Scotty’s paradise
There are many customers looking for Toyota Highlander Hybrid (2500cc + awd) model in the Korean market. I hope that the Toyota Highlander hybrid model will come to the Korean market. I heard that the Toyota Highlander hybrid model will be launched in the Korean market in 2022.
Why is there no option to enable CC or subtitles on so many of your videos? That's so disappointing!
I want a highlander hybrid but inventory is super low, long wait times 😢
HIGHLANDER 😎👍🏻
All good, but oil filters should be hand tight! Had to wrestle the factory filter out today, haha!
The engines are assembled elsewhere and shipped to the plant, that's not something that's done there.
bruh mine from the dealership was like that. pretty sure theres a torque spec for the filter thats just insane. i have the same understanding as you, only hand tight.
Ordered my hybrid Highlander back in August 2021. It is February 2022 now, still waiting for delivery.
Wow! Now I want one
I will never understand how the car industry makes money - boggles my mind
when you buy parts by the thousands theyre way cheaper. theres actually pretty hefty margins on some models actually. tesla for instance, a model s costs around 100k, model 3 costs around 40k, but parts wise they only cost about 5k different to make.
Why are there different models on the same assembly line?
I lové you japan toyota ❤
I suddenly want to buy a Sienna
Noooooooo
I want a sequoia
Toyota the best but I like the 4runner
build in the USA💪💪💪💪👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Very cool! Makes me appreciate reading The Toyota Way even more.
Now all that's missing are the semiconductors. Pesky little things
Does it still take months to get the car after ordering from factory due to chip shortage?
Absolutely amazing.... my cousin works there.
Unlike GM, they know what they are doing, and they know how to improve upon their design and products.
I'm not a GM fan but I think GM changes there designs to often.
I’ve have had GM products over the years along with Toyota products. Both companies quality gone down hill but GM is the worst in quality. Chrysler is the worst!! Ford are hit and miss.
I’ve always loved my Toyota and Honda products. But I truly would love the American brands be as reliable. Nothing against GM/Ford/Chrysler but just quality!! I understand there are a handful models/years are good but it’s not consistent! I’d love to own an American brand again in the future when they improve their quality
Another thought, I'm sure the Toyota factory people taught their pride of workmanship
that goes into each process on the assembly line . The JAPANESE people seam to be very respectful of each other and also to the elderly .
I love my toyota highlander hybrid
just in time production
Whomever is handling the door panel should be doing a better job. I hear wind noises in my new Highlander.
2021 Sienna sliding doors are aluminum and the rear hatch is composite carbon fiber (?)....interesting material changes.
And it doesn’t have rear bumper ! any small fender bender you will need to replace the whole hatch
Believe my 2021 Highlander Limited Hybrid in Blueprint is being built today. Can't wait!
Did you get it yet? I have one to be built Thursday and i don’t know how long delivery is going to be
It is incredible how humans can create such wonderful consumer products, but also sad how nations cannot find enough common vales to unite in peace.
I totally agree with on this one!
日本にもこの車欲しい！！！
Самые лучшие машины эта таëта. 👍👍👍мне б такую 😊😊😊
Гавно а не тоёта, щас много с браками выпускают
You will definitely never mistake this for a German auto assembly line...😅
Given that some people will watch this video due to being recommended it. I want to ask a question. I'm from Australia, and just bought a CX-30 2 months ago with cash, because I needed a car immediately. However, I want to buy a better car soon. Should I get a top of the range Toyota Kluger/Highlander for $72,000? Or a Tesla Model 3? They're the same price.
Although they are the same price they serve very different life functions, so it depends on what you need and the factors around you. Highlander is much bigger and can carry more luggage. You sit higher up so it gives you a commanding view and comfortable sitting position. Model 3 you’re getting an EV with all the modern tech. Do you have access to charging port and are there charging stations around your area?
@@knaka5033 At the moment, I don't have access to a charging port, however I will probably use my CX30 for about 8-10 years, and by then I assume I'd have a family by then. I'd probably go for a Mazda CX-9 instead, as it offers more tech than the Toyota Kluger for cheaper price. The Tesla is good, I can always install a charger at home, however, I don't prioritize performance and don't prefer minimalist technology and design. Additionally, the model 3 isn't good for tall people, especially in the rear seats. But I appreciate your reply, I almost never get a response when I ask questions.
Thank you Mr/Ms/Mrs Naka.
Love watching videos like this 🙌🏾
Toyota # 1
Very nice..
Nice video, I just bought a TOYOTA HIGHLANDER XLE !
Can you buy an XLE awd 7 seater, then buy the middle row seats to make it a 8 seater awd? I am not sure why the heck Toyota does not offer 8 seater awd on XLE or above trims??!! Why not give us that option if you already offer the 8 seater awd on the LE trim but want more of the extras that XLE and above offers!!! You reading this Toyota?! We want 8 seater awd on XLE and above trims!
Toyota does offer an 8 seater on the XLE AWD and Limited AWD trims as a no cost option, the only trims that don’t come with 8 seats are the Platinum and XSE AWD trims
@@amazoncd_7870 don’t see it on the Toyota USA website. Only the LE version has 8 seater awd.
@@vanwilder20 Check again, when you select the XLE AWD trim and go to packages and then there should be the option of bench seating as a $0 cost option. Also when you select the XLE trim you should also see that it says 7+ seats.
Right
You can ask for bench seat or captains chairs in xle.
How can I work here?
Amazing👌

😲😲😃😄😄😄💡💡💡👍👍👍👍
Think I'll stick to getting stuff made in Japan better quality better made. Too much pressure to make money then quality cars in States but Toyota states quality better then any other American made car.
Nice vidéo thanks 👏❤️🇧🇪
Wonder how many defects they have.
It seems that this is in the united states and not Japan am I right ?
Princeton, IN
Yep
Doug Score coming up.
Thank you gues!!!
It’s really amazing how this works. Just curious if anyone knows how long it takes form the start of the line to them driving it away?
Start of which line? Vehicle starts in stamping, then body weld, then paint and then into what you see here. That process takes over a day. From pure assembly shop stand point, few hours
👍👍👍👍👍💎💎💎💎💎NOU sienna samurai
Hope the union leave them alone.
They are smart! They dont go where there's union, this was on the news
Nice guided vehicle, there are marching.
Some of are not automaticly, maybe because of the amount of parts to be transported, aren't that reason?
If there safety risk assessment in working place, why are the workers not use the same safety equipment?
Fitment and choice, also if doing a different job then the requirements change.
Please I want to buy car in this company United States of America Toyota company where I can buy sienna Highlander Lexus venza
I'll keep out 2015 AWD Bullitt proof.
ах мечты... мечты :)
Come to mama. Still waiting for my sienna. 😂
Toyota is number one
Wow what a assemble plant this car will launch in india r not
This good
Лучше Японцев, тойоту никто не соберет!
Абсолютное большинство продаваемых в США тойот сделаны в США . По крайней мере все самые популярные модели , кроме Приуса .

That is so f-ing kool
At least they've got robots doing most of the work
Is it possible to install devices in the car 🚗 that help physically handicapped to drive such as manually or automatically the brake or petrol and protection devices while driving?and how much will it is price be?
High lander 2022 how much in $??
: Civil Engineer: Mucho!
toyota lo mejor pero prefiero la 4runner
Hope they wear masks just for the video. Otherwise they probably see nothing in those glasses
No EV. No sale. ⚡️
2:33 What in the F is she wearing
I have a question why in european and american car factory....worker dont need to wear uniform.
We do. The shirts have Toyota on them and the name of the employee
المصنع هذا في اي دولة ؟
أمريكا

All non-union at Toyota
Build quality at TMUSA factories is still not as good as TMC factories. TMC keeps bitching and wants TMUSA factories to improve their QDR. Look at the body panel gaps. Could be much better.
I bought a new Toyota Camry and fell apart after 30,000 miles. The quality is terrible and the dealership service is poor
Not my experience. Mine is trouble free and I've never had better service with any of the 20 or so new cars I've purchased over the years.
working too hard for me
When will this car reach the Arabian gulf and Bahrain specifically?
Бардак,ни лома ни кувалды.😉
Но они же не "ладу" и не "аурус" собирают.

This is no different then any other plant except none of the workers here are union and most are disposable temps.
They don’t use a temp agency anymore. Did away with that in 2019. Ask me how I know.
👍👍👍👍👍
😍😍😍🤗🤗🤗🤗
Zombies in action.
No More Made-In-Japan Toyota Vehicles in the United States?
there are still a few, like the Prius
4runner
veza
Lexus
What's the point of having a 3 row SUV when you don't have enough space in the third row.
Workers not wearing ear perfection,,,,,,
Some are,,,,
You guys are too slow making Sienna.
Зато в РФ есть "лада-гранта".
И бесплатная рабочая сила .
