Workers at a Subaru plant in central Indiana cheered as its 3 millionth vehicle reached the end of the production line.

The Lafayette factory celebrated the milestone Tuesday, just a couple weeks after it marked the 20th anniversary of its opening.

Senior vice president Tom Easterday told workers that he’d bet on the plant completing its next million vehicles sooner than planned because of the popularity of the Subaru Legacy, Subaru Outback and Toyota Camry models now being built there.

About 3,300 people currently work at the plant, where production peaked at 216,198 vehicles in 1998 and is projected at 158,000 this year.
