Toyota's plant in Saint Petersburg was the home to all of Toyota's manufacturing in Russia, and the plant was initially shut down on March 4, 2022 amid the Russia-Ukraine war. Toyota had kept the plant in a ready to re-start state, but with the war situation not improving, Toyota has announced that the plant won't be reopened.
