"Five new vehicles will be developed and produced through 2029 as part of the investment into factories in Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, and Indiana. The investment will also support the production of a new four-cylinder engine and reopen the Belvidere Assembly Plant in Illinois, which will allow the automaker to expand production of the Jeep Cherokee and Jeep Compass for the U.S. market."
"One of the five new vehicles will be a range-extended EV - a vehicle that combines a battery with a gas generator for additional range - produced at the Warren Truck Assembly Plant in Michigan beginning in 2028. The automaker also plans to produce a large new, gas-powered SUV at the Warren plant."
"The remaining products include a next-generation Dodge Durango that will be produced at the Detroit Assembly Complex in 2029, a new midsize truck that will be assembled at its Toledo Assembly Complex in Ohio, and an all-new four-cylinder engine called the GMET4 EVO that will go into production beginning in 2026 at its Kokomo, Indiana, factory."
Stellantis will invest $13 billion in U.S. manufacturing over the next four years to develop five new vehicles and strengthen factories in Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, and Indiana. The investment will support production of a new four-cylinder GMET4 EVO engine at Kokomo beginning in 2026 and will reopen the Belvidere Assembly Plant to expand Jeep Cherokee and Compass production for the U.S. market. More than 5,000 jobs will be created. One new model will be a range-extended EV produced at Warren beginning in 2028 while Warren will also produce a large gas-powered SUV; other products include a next-generation Durango and a midsize truck.
