Production of the 2026 RAV4 is now underway at Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada, where the model has been assembled since 2009. This new generation represents a significant evolution of the RAV4, with Toyota investing more than $1.1 billion specifically for the launch of this model, bringing Toyota’s total investment in Canada to over $12 billion.

This update matters because it reinforces Toyota’s long-term commitment to Canadian manufacturing, innovation, and jobs. TMMC has nearly four decades of manufacturing history in Canada and now employs more than 8,500 team members at its Cambridge and Woodstock facilities. Continuing RAV4 production in Canada reflects Toyota’s confidence in the skill, quality standards, and reliability of its Canadian workforce.

The sixth-generation RAV4 builds on TMMC’s extensive experience producing electrified vehicles, including the RAV4 Hybrid and Lexus hybrid models. Since 2009, more than four million RAV4 vehicles have been produced in Canada. TMMC is also set to assemble its 12 millionth vehicle this year, having produced over 535,000 vehicles in 2025 alone, solidifying its position as Canada’s leading automotive manufacturer.

This production milestone impacts Canadian workers, local communities, and RAV4 buyers across the country. Customers benefit from vehicles built to world-class quality standards, while communities continue to see long-term investment and employment stability. For buyers considering the all-new 2026 RAV4, Canadian production underscores Toyota’s focus on quality, durability, and accountability close to home.

With production of the all-new 2026 RAV4 now underway in Canada, Toyota reinforces its leadership in electrified vehicles and its deep roots in Canadian manufacturing. Built by one of the most awarded automotive plants in the world, the next-generation RAV4 carries forward a legacy of trust, quality, and innovation. Additional updates on the 2026 RAV4 will be provided as the rollout continues across Canada.
