Ford/Arizona Proving Grounds Lunch Run
Now Operated By Toyota

Date: TBD

The Arizona Proving Ground opened in 1985. The Proving Ground consists of 1,498 acres [6.06 km²] located less than one hour northwest of the Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport at an elevation of 1,650 feet (500 m). The facility was originally a Volvo facility [VAPG] but was transitioned to the Ford branding in the summer of 2009 and renamed the Arizona Proving Ground [APG]. It is now used by Toyota [TPG].

Arizona's Toyota Proving Ground is operated year round. The climate is of a desert type with low annual rainfall and low relative humidity. Daytime temperatures are high throughout the summer months. The winters are mild. Nighttime temperatures frequently drop below freezing during the three coldest months, but the afternoons are usually sunny and warm.

The facility is conveniently located on the outskirts of Phoenix, and offers complete services for vehicle testing to outside companies. Outside parties can have testing conducted by TPG personnel or can directly rent the use of the test surfaces for their own staff. Office space, garage areas and event planning is also offered.
