In spite of the recession, Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada Inc. produced an astounding 319,548 automobiles in 2009, and the company looks to go beyond that record number this year, by producing over 400,000 cars and crossover vehicles, this according to TMMC president Ray Tanguay.

The auto-giant has two plants in the Ontario province, one in the City of Cambridge and another in Woodstock. The two factories will be primarily responsible for the production of two of Toyota’s strongest selling automobiles in all of North America, namely the Toyota RAV4 CUV, as well as the RX350, which is off of Toyota’s Lexus luxury range.

They’ve performed remarkably well in the market that Tanguay said the company is having a bit of trouble with supply for the two vehicles. With supply running low, dealerships are unable to put the RAV4 and the RX350 on display.

To answer this problem, employees in the Cambridge plant are working overtime to produce other in-demand models like the Corolla and Matrix. TMMC has also sent a second batch of workers to the Woodstock plant for production of the RAV4.

It’s certainly good news for folks in Cambridge, whose economy relies heavily on the local Toyota plant.
