GM reportedly said it plans to expand its Flint Engine South plant and refurbish its Flint truck assembly plant. About $300 million will be invested in the engine plant, which makes the 4.2 litre six-cylinder engine currently used in mid-size sport utility vehicles such as the Chevy TrailBlazer and GMC Envoy, and in the future will be used in a variety of cars and SUVs.


Another $150 million will be invested in new machinery, tooling and equipment for GM’s Flint truck assembly plant, which builds the four-door Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra full-size pickups as well as some commercial medium-duty trucks, Reuters added.
