Georgetown KY Toyota Plant
Posted by: Malok in Georgetown KY Real Estate, Lexington KY Real Estate, Scott County
The Georgetown KY Toyota Plant recently announced that they were going to be producing a new model called the Toyota Venza. This model replaces the Solara in the production line. This change that could add as many as 75 jobs to the facility – and the Toyota Plant will begin production of the new model in November 2008.
Some highlights of the new Toyota Venza include:
2.7 liter 4 cylinder or 3.5 liter V-6
6 speed sequential shift automatic transmissions
Seating Capacity will be 5
Toyota has invested $350 million to retool the plant to accommodate the new production of the Venza at the Georgetown KY facility. The V-6 will be the first models to be built, with the 4 cylinder to be offered later next year. The car is based on the Camry base and is being touted as a Sport Utility Vehicle (SUV) crossover. It officially has a 3500 lb towing capacity.
Fuel efficiency or pricing for the Venza have not been released at this point – but Toyota hopes to do sales of 100000 annually. [Toyota is predicting 75000 sales for 2009.]
It will come standard with front wheel drive – but all wheel drive will be an option available. It will be the first time that they Georgetown Kentucky Toyota Plant will have assembled all wheel drive components for their vehicles. They intend to produce the Cmary, Camry Hybrid, and the Venza all on the same production line in November.
This is just 1 example of why its a great time to own one of the homes for sale in Georgetown KY. Job growth with good paying jobs are one of the key economic indicators for a community. The Georgetown KY real estate market would potentially be a good opportunity for someone to enjoy living in a smaller community while being close to some of the larger features offered in a big town since Lexington KY is a very short distance away.
