Hyundai Says It Will Spend $2.7 Billion Expanding Part of the Georgia Complex Raided By ICE

ATLANTA (AP) — Hyundai Motor Group confirms it’s moving forward with expanding its Georgia plant. The move comes after an immigration raid delayed startup of an electric vehicle battery plant at the site. The company plans to invest $2.7 billion to boost capacity by 200,000 vehicles over the next three years. The company aims to produce 10 electric and hybrid models at the facility west of Savannah, up from two now. Hyundai pledges that 60% of its vehicles will be electric or hybrid by 2030 as it aims to grow sales in South Korea, North America and Europe. Hyundai says 80% of its vehicles sold in the U.S. will be made domestically by 2030.
