TL;DR

Toyota is investing an additional $8 billion in its North Carolina EV battery plant, despite delays in EV production from Ford and GM. The funding will create around 3,000 jobs and bring the total investment to approximately $13.9 billion. Toyota aims to make the plant the epicenter of North American battery production and plans to produce over 30 GWh of batteries annually once fully operational. In contrast, Ford and GM have delayed their EV investments and production, potentially setting themselves back in the growing EV market.
