GM: U.S. small car plant to be chosen quickly


Which contestant is going to win?

GM announced today the manufacturing facilities under consideration to build a future small, fuel-efficient car in the United States.

The assembly plants in consideration are:

  • Orion (Michigan)
  • Spring Hill (Tennessee)
  • Janesville (Wisconsin)

Given the importance of this small car program, and in an effort to move quickly to identify the plant, GM leadership has begun discussions regarding selection criteria with Federal and State government officials from Michigan, Tennessee and Wisconsin. GM hopes to identify and announce the future production site of the small car within the next several weeks.
