GMC opens second plant in India TALEGAON, India — General Motors Corp. opened a second plant in India on Tuesday, boosting its production capacity in the country from 85,000 to 225,000 vehicles a year. The factory is part of GM’s aggressive push into emerging markets, which have helped cushion the beleaguered auto giant from falling sales in the developed world. It also furthers the Indian government’s ambition to turn the country into a manufacturing hub for small vehicles. GM invested $300 million in the new plant in Talegaon near Pune, a fast-growing manufacturing hub about two hours outside Mumbai, the nation’s financial capital. The factory will start by producing the Spark — a mini-car introduced in 2007 that is GM’s most popular local model — for the domestic market.
AS long as they keep those cars there, I don't much mind. Just keep the money flowing into this country. It's what the Japanese are doing with the assembly of their cars in Ohio (I think).
