GM to build hybrid motors in Baltimore and add 200 jobs
By MB-BigB | January 30, 2010
General Motors this week said that it would start to make its next generation electric motors at its transmission plant in Baltimore, MD. GM is investing $246 million into the plant to make the new motors, which will add about 200 jobs to the payroll, and make it the first US electric motor manufacturing plant operated by a major US manufacturer. GM plans to use the new motors in its next generation of hybrids, which are due in 2013.
