CarDekho Says…
This investment will significantly expand Toyota’s footprint in India. Adding 1 lakh units of annual capacity and nearly 3,000 jobs signals confidence in the Indian market and positions the carmaker to use India as both a domestic production hub and a regional export base. As of next, Toyota is set to step into the EV space with the Toyota Ebella, which has already been showcased with just its prices remaining to be announced.
