Toyota to produce a new battery electric vehicle in Europe! The new BEV will be the first electric vehicle produced in one of our European plants. Toyota Motor Manufacturing Czech Republic in Kolin will be expanded from 152,000 to 173,000 square metres to accommodate production of the new vehicle and its battery assembly, and new paint and welding shops. This move signals a further roll-out of our multi-pathway strategy designed to achieve our objective of carbon neutral operations in Europe by 2040. The announcement was made today in a ceremony at Office of the Government of the Czech Republic, by the Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala and the Minister of Industry and Trade Lukáš Vlček, together with Toyota Motor Europe’s President & CEO Yoshihiro Nakata.

Last week, we celebrated inclusive mobility at the UCI World Para-cycling Championships! 🚲 Held in Ronse, Belgium, it was a global celebration of athleticism and elite sport. With 328 athletes from 51 countries, the races showcased performance, determination, and international camaraderie. John, from the Toyota team, helped behind the scenes, making a difference through small but meaningful gestures. It reflects our broader belief that mobility should empower everyone, regardless of ability. #MobilityForAll

We are taking steps toward circularity with the launch of our first end-of-life vehicle dismantling plant — the Toyota Circular Factory. The initiative applies Toyota Production System principles to dismantling operations: 🟢 standardising processes 🟢 reducing waste 🟢 improving efficiency Our goal is to deliver recycled materials back into our supply chain, supporting the use of car-to-car recycled elements in future vehicles. Kudos to the team driving this forward!
Toyota Production System in Reverse Today I am delighted to announce that Ali Umit Sengezer Toyota's Head of CE and Craig Marston our manager of Toyota’s Circular Factory with their teams, have taken our 1st end of life vehicle dismantling plant live, but there are 1,000’s of dismantlers so what make us unique. Firstly, our objective is not only to make money from selling used parts and scrap but to collect and deliver recyclable feedstock to our supply chain ensuring a clear pathway to achieving our goal of maximising car to car recycled materials into our next generation of vehicles. Toyota Production Systems (TPS) is well known for bringing quality and efficiency to our new vehicle production plants around the world, but now we are applying this same philosophy to dismantle vehicles. This allows us to create a standardized repeatable business model. · By applying “Just in time” and Muda (waste) elimination we have dramatically reduced the space needed · We run an 8 pitch dismantling line at a fixed tact time (speed), allowing us to implement Standardised work and achieve our full capacity target of dismantling one car every 3 hours · With standardised work, we can start to Kaizen (continuous improve) the process to deliver even more profit and feedstock with the same effort · By following the Jidoka (automation with the human touch) mindset we are perfecting our processes before introducing technology, thereby reducing start-up capital investment · We have the mindset of absolute safety, ensuring every one of our members goes home in the same condition he arrived at work This is only the beginning of Toyota playing our part in improving the professionality of the dismantler industry As I have said before, Toyota can’t do Circularity by our selves so please share or like this post

👀 Have a look at Atlas, the humanoid robot, giving us a peek into how AI and robotics can team up to support people in everyday life. Toyota Research Institute and Boston Dynamics joined forces to get Atlas doing real-world tasks using Large Behaviour Models. It’s a step toward robots that can actually help out in daily settings.
One step closer to general-purpose humanoids 🤖 TRI and Boston Dynamics have jointly demonstrated Atlas performing complex, continuous tasks powered by Large Behavior Models (LBMs). This collaboration brings together TRI’s work on embodied AI systems with Boston Dynamics’ advanced humanoid platform to enable whole-body manipulation and locomotion. This milestone highlights how LBMs can accelerate the development of general-purpose robots capable of adapting to real-world environments.

🔍 Fourth episode in our series exploring the principles that shape Toyota’s culture. 4️⃣ This time: Genchi Genbutsu Sometimes, the only way to truly understand a problem is to go and see it for yourself. By visiting the actual place, the Gemba (or Genba), we observe the process, confirm the facts, and analyze root causes firsthand. Whether on the shop floor or in the office, we’re encouraged to stay curious and find the root cause when issues arise.
