TRD USA (TMS USA)

From the racetrack to the street, Toyota Racing Development (TRD) U.S.A., Inc. plays a key role in providing Toyota with an enhanced performance image. A subsidiary of Toyota Motor Sales (TMS), U.S.A., Inc., TRD designs and builds Toyota racing engines in addition to building and marketing performance aftermarket parts for many Toyota vehicles.

Keeping pace with Motorsports and the performance aftermarket industry in the U.S., TRD has grown from fewer than 50 associates in early 1995 to more than 200 today. TRD’s Championship Auto Racing Team (CART) and Indy Racing League (IRL) engine division is housed in a 47,000 square foot Costa Mesa, CA facility, complete with four engine dynamometers, an engine assembly workshop, an engine design studio, and several specialized workshops. Within this state-of-the-art facility, highly skilled TRD engineers and technicians design, assemble, and develop Toyota’s CART and IRL racing engines.

TRD’s Sales and Special Projects Division is housed separately, in a 45,000 square foot Tustin, CA facility. In this dedicated facility, TRD develops, inventories and markets a variety of sport parts designed to enhance the driving experience for Toyota owners. Also from the Tustin facility, TRD’s Special Projects group assembles and develops Toyota racing engines for Off-Road, Sports Car, Toyota Atlantic, and Nascar DASH series competition.

TRD’s sport parts and merchandise are marketed and sold through Toyota dealerships nationwide. TRD only markets the highest quality parts and merchandise, consistent with the Toyota image and customer expectations.
