Where is Lexus Made?

Lexus 2021 LC Convertibles

You’ve no doubt seen and admired new Lexus vehicles on the roads in and around the St. Charles area, but have you ever wondered where are Lexus cars made? While the first guess for most Geneva drivers would probably be Japan, it may surprise you to know that many Lexus models are actually made in North America. Learn more about where Lexus cars are made from the team at Lexus of Naperville.


Lexus Production around the World

So, where is Lexus made? There are seven different Lexus manufacturing plants located in Japan, Canada, and the United States. Each plant specializes on specific models within the new Lexus vehicle lineup:

  • Toyota Tahara Plant (Tahara, Japan): Lexus LS, IS, GX, LX, and RC
  • Toyota Yoshiwara Plant (Toyota, Aichi, Japan): Lexus LX
  • Toyota Motor Kyushu (Miyawaka, Fukuoka, Japan): Lexus UX
  • Toyota Miyata Plant (Miyawaka, Fukuoka, Japan): Lexus IS and ES
  • Toyota Motomachi Plant (Toyota, Aichi, Japan): Lexus LC
  • Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada, Inc. (Cambridge, Ontario, Canada): Lexus RX, Lexus RX Hybrid
  • Toyota Motor Manufacturing Kentucky, Inc. (Georgetown, Kentucky, United States): Lexus ES

Lexus Parent Company

Lexus is well-known as a world-class manufacturer of luxury vehicles, but not many are aware that Toyota is actually the owner of the Lexus brand. Obviously, the two brands have their own distinct style and offer different features and amenities, with Lexus being the premier luxury marque. Still, both have their headquarters in Japan — Toyota in the city of Toyota and Lexus in Nagoya. While it should come as no surprise that Japanese drivers make up the largest segment of Lexus customers, you’ll find these luxury cars and SUVs being driven in over 70 different countries and territories. There are also Lexus operational centers scattered throughout the world from Belgium to Texas.
