History
Toyotashi Station opened on 1 November 1920 as Koromo Station on the privately owned Mikawa Railway. The Mikawa Railway was absorbed by Meitetsu on 1 June 1941, bringing the station into the Mikawa Line. The stop was renamed to its present name on 1 October 1959, reflecting the city of Toyota's growth around the Toyota Motor headquarters, and the station building was rebuilt in 1961. Tracks were elevated in 1985 and a new elevated station building opened the same November, with the section to Umetsubo doubled the following year. Manaca IC cards entered service on 11 February 2011.
