DaimlerChrysler will take the idea of production partnerships to a new level in 2005 when it begins building its global, four-cylinder engines in Dundee, Michigan.
The heart of the plan is cooperation among three DaimlerChrysler affiliates - Chrysler, Mitsubishi and Hyundai - to design the engines and the production plant.
The alliance will begin production of the same small and mid-sized engine family in 2004 in Japan for local Mitsubishi production and in South Korea for Hyundai.
