Toyota to build next generation of Auris in UK
Toyota has said it will build the next generation of its Auris car at its Burnaston plant in Derbyshire. It comes after Toyota promised to invest £240m in upgrading Burnaston last March. Toyota employs about 2,500 people at Burnaston, while another 590 work at Deeside. Dr Johan van Zyl, president of Toyota Europe, said: "Today's announcement that we will manufacture the new Auris at Burnaston, with most engines to be supplied from Deeside, shows our confidence in the skills and capabilities of our Toyota UK members." Toyota is the latest carmaker to commit to building more cars in the UK since the Brexit vote in June 2016.
