Which Toyota plant in Japan produces the Lexus LC and the Toyota Mirai?
Answer
Motomachi plant
The Toyota plant in Japan that produces the Lexus LC and the Toyota Mirai is the Motomachi plant.
Located in Toyota City, Aichi Prefecture, Motomachi began production in 1959 as Toyota’s first dedicated passenger-car plant. Over the decades, it assembled models including the Publica, Crown, Supra, RAV4 and Lexus LFA. That history helps explain why Toyota uses the facility for vehicles requiring specialized production expertise.
The Lexus LC is built on a dedicated assembly line at Motomachi, with extensive hand-finishing and advanced processes such as carbon-fiber-reinforced-plastic roof production. The Mirai is assembled at the former LFA Works section of the plant, where workers install its fuel-cell system, hydrogen tanks and electric-drive components.
The other choices are Toyota facilities, but they are associated with different vehicle programs. Toyota’s current production-site listing places the LC and Mirai under Motomachi, making it the single canonical answer.
