From exhilarating design and revolutionary manufacturing processes, to innovations in safety and connectivity, we’re building ever better cars that make our roads safer, and help you make the most of every journey.
It just makes sense: vehicles destined for American drivers and roads should be shaped by the people who know them best. That’s why so much of what rolls off our assembly lines here is imagined here. We have world-class design, research and development facilities throughout the U.S., from Texas to Michigan, Arizona to California. That’s in addition to thousands of the brightest thinkers from all across America who call those facilities home. Check out what they’re doing to put more inspiration, intelligence and fun into every mile.
This is where beauty meets brains. At our Calty Design Research facilities in Ann Arbor, San Francisco and Newport Beach, some of the most innovative minds in the automotive industry are creating exquisite exterior and interior designs for everything from cutting-edge Scion concept vehicles to our flagship ’13 Avalon.
Calty Design Research has contributed to the design of 35 production models – from the 1978 Celica to the 1997 Prius and on to the 2013 Avalon. Calty designers have also helped to create 20 concept vehicles since 1977, ranging from the then-futuristic F100 to the 2006 Scion FUSE and the 2012 Fun-Vii. With design studios in Ann Arbor, Michigan as well as California’s Newport Beach and San Francisco, Calty has more than 100 team members and represents a $4.9 million investment.3
For almost 40 years, Toyota Motor North America Research and Development (TMNA Research and Development), a division of Toyota Motor North America (TMNA) has been the driving force behind Toyota's North American engineering and research & development activities. Headquartered in York Township, Michigan, TMNA Research and Development engineers, scientists and technicians primarily work in three main areas: product development, advance research and evaluation & crashworthiness. In June of 2015, Toyota’s commitment to drive more local decision-making and ultimately faster, more precise response to the needs of the marketplace, led to an expansion announcement to the York Township campus to incorporate Purchasing operations. This investment will intensify Toyota’s engineering, product development and procurement capabilities and the impact will be felt by our customers through enhanced quality, adoption of new technologies and even greater value of the vehicles we produce.
Toyota Research Institute, North America (TRINA) is working to discover the next generation core technology. By focusing on Energy & Environment, Social Structure and Humanity, this team of researchers and scientists represents brainpower, diligence and passion. The innovations introduced by these leaders show that we’re not just keeping pace–we’re helping to set the pace.
