Audi to Build $4.2 Billion SUV Plant in Georgia, Creating 4,500 Jobs

Audi to Build $4.2 Billion SUV Plant in Georgia, Creating 4,500 JobsPreviousNext

US President Donald Trump announced Volkswagen's Audi will invest $4.2 billion to build its first US plant in Georgia, producing 200,000 SUVs annually and creating about 4,500 jobs. The project, scheduled to start construction next year with production in the early 2030s, is presented by Trump as a success of his tariff policies. The announcement comes amid competitive midterm elections in Georgia, where Republicans face challenges despite this manufacturing investment news. Audi's move aims to strengthen its North American production alongside Europe and China.
