In 1963, Australia was one of the first countries to assemble Toyotas outside Japan. However, in February 2014, Toyota was the last of Australia's major automakers to announce the end of production in Australia. The closure of Toyota's Australian plant was completed on October 3, 2017, and had produced a total 3,451,155 vehicles. At its peak in October 2007, Toyota manufactured 15,000 cars a month.<ref>{{Cite press release |title=Toyota closes manufacturing operations |date=October 3, 2017 |publisher=Toyota |location=Australia |url=https://www.toyota.com.au/main/news/toyota-australia-closes-manufacturing-operations |access-date=December 13, 2018 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181215224451/https://www.toyota.com.au/main/news/toyota-australia-closes-manufacturing-operations |archive-date=December 15, 2018}}</ref>{{primary source inline|date=December 2023}} Before Toyota, [[Ford Motor Company|Ford]] and GM's [[Holden]] had announced similar moves, all citing an unfavorable currency and attendant high manufacturing costs.<ref>{{Cite news |last1=Wallace |first1=Rick |last2=Ferguson |first2=John |date=February 10, 2014 |title=Toyota to stop making cars in Australia, follows Ford and Holden |work=The Australian |url=http://www.theaustralian.com.au/business/news/toyota-to-stop-making-cars-in-australia-follows-ford-and-holden/story-e6frg906-1226822823246 |url-status=live |access-date=February 14, 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140428231925/http://www.theaustralian.com.au/business/news/toyota-to-stop-making-cars-in-australia-follows-ford-and-holden/story-e6frg906-1226822823246 |archive-date=April 28, 2014}}</ref>
