The company said it would create 750 new jobs to build the LexusES, a luxury model that is based on the Toyota Camry, also produced at the Kentucky plant.
These include the family friendly Toyota Highlander crossover SUV, the budget-minded Yaris subcompact and the fuel-sipping Prius hybrid hatchback, along with the upscale LexusES 350 sedan and RX 350 crossover.
