So a car manufacturer that already builds in the US MAY expand their production in the future. They are reviewing options and MAY make a decision about it in 2026. Got it. You do understand their production facility is primarily robotically automated right?

Yep, the manufacturer that MAY make a decision next year about a plant that may or may not open just in time for AOC's inauguration in 2029.

Funny how when the lefties predict gloom and doom, it's as if that's cast in stone.  But not the forecasts of jobs and growth. 

 

Why do you figure that is?

The total trollness revealed.

This is for EVs, which Trump hates. He will have to offer great, great incentives to make electric cars in bigly quantity in the U.S.

What forecasts of jobs and growth? They are talking about maybe producing another model, similar to one that is already being built there, at a plant that already utilise or is already in the process. Where's the huge? Flimsy. Just talking up a small flicker.

If you ask Trump about it ,he will have no idea what your talking about ,

From the article in the OP regarding plans made back when Biden was president:

 

"The frontrunner plant reportedly in consideration is in Chattanooga, Tennessee, where its parent company Volkswagen already builds the ID.4 electric crossover.

Since the Audi Q4 E-tron shares a similar platform with the ID.4, the plant could be adapted relatively quickly to handle production without starting from scratch."

 

So an adaption of an already existing plant. Will there be more or less workers employed? The article didn't say.

 

"Another potential site is in South Carolina, where VW is breaking ground on a new factory to build electric-based pickups and SUVs under the Scout Motors name."

 

So they're already breaking ground on a plant, meaning it was a decision made during the administration of President Biden.

 

Look, we get that the resident MAGA community are searching high and low for some/any good news but this smacks of desperation.

Some potential expansion in three existing non-union plants.

Let's circle back to this "yuge" win in a few years.

Yes, about that.😄

“Some automakers are now localizing production of EV platforms they’ve already poured billions into — creating a reshuffling of global supply chains that aligns with White House goals, even if not with its messaging”.

 

Credit where Credit is due!

The Trump effect ! 
Maga

Make America great again and Capitalism too!

Despite the leftist dream of divestment 

from Manufacturing in America!

When BMW revitalised the Cowley factory producing the Mini it didn't bring jobs. Instead it went from this

 

 

To this

German, Japanese, Korean or whatever, there's no money to be made from inefficiency, you want them to run a business or a charity?

And why do you consider a CONSIDERATION that isn't final yet, cast in stone this time?

 

You do understand that they are all playing Trump with PROMISES, same as they did during his first term, to get favours in the short term but at the end those promises will all be scaled back, similar to what happened during his first term

 

 

There seems to have been a huge mix up....the headline has been assigned to the wrong body of text?

I would say it is more likely Trump asks them to Play Us with "maybe promises," in exchange for whatever favor. 

If Trump cared about Americans, all the traitor-visas which replace Americans with cheap labor would be rescinded, so that the 3/4 of American STEM workers could return to their former jobs. 

 

And, we would be watching the felony-busted employers of illegal-aliens (existing law) being perp-walked on television right now in orange-jumpsuits - then, the illegals fired en-masse across the country, and millions of Americans returning to their former middle-class jobs in food-packing, construction, etc.

Wow a US topic with some positive news. It will be hijacked soon. Great news. Hope it all comes off as intended. 

As usual nonsense. Audi is part of the Volkswagen Group, but has sold not even 200.000 Units in the US in 2024 compare to 9 million Units world wide by the Volkswagen Group.

A decision to be made before end of the year, production locations to be announced 2026. Then re-tooling of production lines, might take another 1-2 years. Trump will not be in office any more when this truly comes to pass... such are the time lines in industrial production.

 

This is purely a political signal.

Things are progressing, thanks for asking! Can't promise that it will result in any job creation, though.

So, it's not good news then? At what point will it be good news?

When they go from having a concept of a decision to actually breaking ground for a new plant, creating new jobs. Don't you agree?

When they are actually manufacturing there.

Telling Trump that they are thinking about it, is already good enough to let the MAGA people think they won.

They are just buying time.
