Toyota is once again looking at opening the plant in Mississippi to build the Prius here in the US. That would free up the production in Japan to focus on supplying the Japanese market.
But, Toyota is waiting for 'US economic recovery hits full stride.' That makes it unclear when they will go ahead and finish the plant they idled back at then end of 2008.
Toyota is predicting a 10% rise in sales in the US this year. It's boosting production in anticipation here in the US because of the relative weakness of the dollar.
