The second plant, operational since December 2010 at the same location, produces the Camry Hybrid, Urban Cruiser Hyryder and Hilux, with a capacity of 2.10 lakh units, taking Toyota Kirloskar Motor\u2019s total installed production capacity to 3.42 lakh units annually.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, Toyota retails models such as the Glanza, Rumion and Urban Cruiser Taisor, while premium offerings like the Vellfire luxury MPV and Land Cruiser 300 are brought into India as completely built units (CBUs).<\/p>\n<p>Toyota Kirloskar Motor is jointly owned by Toyota Motor Corporation of Japan (89 per cent) and Kirloskar Systems Limited of India (11 per cent). The company employs 6,466 people and operates on a land parcel of approximately 432 acres in Karnataka.<\/p>\n<p>With a strong start to 2026, expanding electrification efforts and consistent demand for its hybrid and SUV portfolio, Toyota Kirloskar Motor appears well-positioned to build further momentum in the Indian automotive market over the coming months.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ads__container inline-story-add inline-story-ad-scroll inline_ad2\" id=\"2\">\n<p>advertisement<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/subscriptions.intoday.in\/auto-today?utm_source=web-auto-storylink%20\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span><strong>Subscribe to Auto Today Magazine<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Ends<\/p>\n<div class=\"authors__container\">\n<div class=\"authors__by\">\n<p>Published By: <\/p>\n<p>Soumya <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"published__on\">\n<p>Published On: <\/p>\n<p>Feb 1, 2026<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/blockads.fivefilters.org\"> <\/a><\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/blockads.fivefilters.org\/acceptable.html\"> <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; further momentum in the Indian <span class=\"match\">automotive<\/span> market over the coming months &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-71843","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","wpcat-1-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/71843","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=71843"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/71843\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=71843"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=71843"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new7.shop\/zerocostfreehost\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=71843"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
