Toyota says it will move production of the Tacoma pickup truck to the United States from Mexico as part of a $3.6 billion investment in its San Antonio, Texas, manufacturing campus.

Why it matters: The move allows the Japanese carmaker to sidestep uncertainty regarding U.S. trade policy with Mexico and Canada, and will no doubt please the Trump administration, which has been pressuring automakers to build more vehicles in the United States.
