General Motors announced this week it planned to invest more than $500 million in its Arlington, Texas, assembly plant to prepare for the production of future internal-combustion engine SUVs. That brings GM's total amount of new planned investment for future combustion engine technology and vehicles to over $2 billion.
Earlier this month, GM announced it would invest $1 billion into its Michigan plants for combustion-engine powered heavy-duty pickups. This follows its announcement in January of an $854 million investment in the next generation of its small block V8. Since 2013, GM has invested over $31 billion in its US manufacturing and parts distribution facilities.
