Toyota has completed construction of the first phase of its experimental Woven City at the foot of Mt Fuji and people will start moving in in fall 2025

Toyota’s futuristic Woven City, which is being built on the site of a former car factory in Japan, is almost ready for its first residents. At CES this week, the Japanese auto giant updated the public on the progress of the $10 billion project,

Beginning in fall 2025, 100 residents known as “weavers” will move to the city, with that number expected to expand to 360 during phase one. Eventually, Toyota says, up to 2,000 people will reside in the city. They will primarily be employees of Toyota or Toyota’s Woven by Toyota mobility tech company.

Toyota Motor Corp. aims to move in the first 100 residents of its planned futuristic city at the base of Mount Fuji in Japan by this fall or “shortly thereafter.”

Toyota Motor Corporation is moving ahead with its vision of the future where it isn’t a mix of Camrys and Corollas, or hybrids and EVs, but one of “inventors” and “weavers’ in a community centered around mobility.
