Via Motors, an electric vehicle manufacturer, is considering relocating its headquarters from Utah to Auburn Hills, Michigan, to grow its production, move that would add 300 jobs in Michigan.
The company detailed its plan in a request for a $2.5 million Michigan Business Development Program grant, which the Michigan Strategic Fund board approved Tuesday.
The jobs would pay an average of $2,458 per week plus benefits, according to a Michigan Economic Development Corporation briefing memo. The capital investment from the move would be up to $12.35 million.
