General Motors (GM) is setting the stage for a groundbreaking shift in U.S. manufacturing with a monumental $500 million investment in its Lansing Grand River Assembly plant, backed by a federal grant from the U.S. Department of Energy. This initiative marks a significant milestone in GM’s ongoing commitment to electrification and U.S. manufacturing leadership.

Electrifying the Future

For over two decades, the Lansing Grand River Assembly plant has been the birthplace of luxury and performance vehicles, including the iconic Cadillac V-Series Blackwings. With this new investment, the plant is set to transition into a hub for electric vehicle (EV) production. The federal grant, part of the Domestic Manufacturing Conversion Grant program, supports the production of efficient hybrid, plug-in electric hybrid, plug-in electric, and hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles.

Strengthening U.S. Manufacturing and Supply Chains

This latest investment is part of a larger strategy to build a resilient supply chain and provide consumers with a diverse range of vehicles. Since 2020, GM has announced over $12 billion in investments dedicated to North American EV manufacturing and supply chain development. Lansing Grand River will join a roster of GM plants on this electrification journey, including:

- Factory ZERO Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly Center** in Michigan

- Orion Assembly in Michigan

- Spring Hill Manufacturing in Tennessee

-Fairfax Assembly in Kansas

- Toledo Propulsion Systems in Ohio

Nationwide Impact and Job Creation

GM, alongside its suppliers and joint venture partners, is making multi-billion-dollar investments to localize the production of EV raw materials, processed materials, and components, including battery cells. These initiatives are creating thousands of jobs across several states, including Michigan, Ohio, Tennessee, Nevada, Louisiana, Texas, North Carolina, and California.

Commitment to Excellence

“GM’s investment and this Department of Energy grant underscore our commitment to U.S. leadership in manufacturing and innovation, ensuring we’re competitive at home and abroad,” said Camilo Ballesty, GM Vice President of North America Manufacturing and Labor Relations. “Our Lansing Grand River team produces incredible vehicles for our customers, and we’re proud to bring our commitment to performance and quality into our EV future.”

The Lansing Grand River Assembly, represented by UAW Local 652, will continue to produce the Cadillac CT4 and CT5 (including V-Series), while preparing for the production of future electric models. Details about the timing, future products, and production volumes will be shared in due course.
