GM to invest nearly $800 million in Canadian plant to build EVs
(January 19, 2021) INGERSOLL, Ont. — Unifor members have ratified a three-year contract with General Motors to bring production of its recently announced BrightDrop electric light commercial vehicle, the EV600, to its CAMI manufacturing plant in Ingersoll, Ontario. The nearly $800 million (1 billion Canadian dollar) investment will support GM’s timing to deliver BrightDrop EV600 in late 2021.
