The Lafayette factory celebrated the milestone Tuesday, just a couple weeks after it marked the 20th anniversary of
its opening.
Senior vice president Tom Easterday told workers that he’d bet on the plant completing its next million
vehicles sooner than planned because of the popularity of the Subaru Legacy, Subaru Outback and Toyota Camry models now being
built there.
About 3,300 people currently work at the plant, where production peaked at 216,198 vehicles in 1998
and is projected at 158,000 this year.
