Toyota

What’s the world’s largest automaker up to in Indiana? A lot.

And, they do it at a facility that’s even more technologically advanced than the cars they produce. We’re talking computers, lasers and robots. Toyota isn’t the only cutting-edge manufacturer calling Indiana home. The Hoosier state has more manufacturing jobs than any other state, based on the size of our population.
