Last month, Mazda and Toyota selected Huntsville, AL, as the site of a new joint-venture assembly plant. The factory will have the capacity to build 300,000 vehicles annually, with production split evenly between the two companies. Mazda intends to use the facility to produce a new crossover model for the North American market, while Toyota will use the factory to make Corollas.
The cost of the $1.6 billion factory will be divvied up equally between the two automakers. The facility is expected to create up to 4,000 jobs, and production is expected to begin by 2021.
