Lexus ES Production Moving To Kentucky

Production of the Lexus ES will move from Toyota's plant in Kyushu, Japan to a plant in Georgetown, Kentucky, where its platform twin, the Toyota Camry, is built.

Previously, the Lexus RX was the only Lexus vehicle made outside the USA, produced at a plant in Ontario. The move to Kentucky was no doubt helped along by a $146.5 million "tax incentive package". The Wall Street Journal reports that the expansion taking place to accommodate Lexus will result in 570 new jobs.
