LORDSTOWN, Ohio (AP) — General Motors says it is investing
$50 million at the northeast Ohio plant that builds the popular
Chevrolet Cruze.
The company said the investments, which include a
new trim shop, are directed at the next generation of the Cruze compact
sedan to be built at the Lordstown plant near Youngstown.
The Cruze has become GM’s best-selling car since it was launched in September 2010.
The
auto-workers union said it is buying 1 millionth Cruze, which was built
at Lordstown on April 10. The car will be raffled off to a plant
employee with all ticket proceeds donated to local charities.
GM
says it has invested approximately $250 million at Lordstown since 2009.
The complex has built more than 15 million vehicles since opening in
April 1966.
