Cadillac is on a roll now

Evening Chronicle (Newcastle, England), Nov 10, 2006

Cadillac is celebrating the fifth anniversary of the opening of its Lansing Grand River assembly plant in Michigan, America.

The facility began operations in 2001 after a $700m investment. Since the factory's opening, GM has spent $330m in a regional stamping centre and $1.5bn to build the Lansing Delta Township assembly plant, which will begin production of cross-over vehicles in 2007.

More than 6,000 people are employed by GM in the area, resulting in an annual payroll of more than $500m. Lansing Grand River produces the Cadillac CTS, CTS-V, STS, STS-V and SRX models, some being exported to the UK. The site has been ranked the most productive luxury car plant in the US for the last three years.
