Not too long ago, General Motors announced a $2 billion investment into U.S. manufacturing. Out of that $2 billion, $88 million will be going to the Grand River plant in Lansing, Michigan. The plant, which is the birth place for the Cadillac CTS, will be getting new hires as well and is a part of the 17 other facilities that are getting helped by the $2 billion.
“Employees at Lansing Grand River have earned this investment through the high quality of their work and the flexible manufacturing that has been a hallmark of this plant since it opened in 2001,” said Manufacturing Manager Gerald Johnson. The recent investment was done so for a reason but as of right now, that reason is still ‘hush-hush’. General Motors did say that it will be used for equipment and tooling for a new model. It could be safe to assume that a next generation Cadillac, perhaps the DTS replacement, will be built at Lansing in the near future.
