Mazda Toyota Manufacturing (MTM), the only North American facility to produce the Corolla Cross, is a joint venture partnership between Mazda Motor Corporation and Toyota Motor Corporation. The plant began production of the Corolla Cross in September 2021, and of the all-new Mazda CX-50 in January 2022. The plant has the capacity to produce 300,000 vehicles a year, evenly split between the two nameplates. MTM’s investment increased to $2.311 billion when the parent companies announced an additional $830 million commitment in the summer of 2020. The additional investment allowed MTM to incorporate more cutting-edge technologies into its manufacturing processes.
