Stellantis to produce electric vehicles in the State of Mexico
TOLUCA - Stellantis has started production of electric vehicles at its Toluca plant, with an investment of US$1.6 billion. The plant, adapted for the new STLA Large platform, will boost electromobility in Mexico.
This project reinforces the commitment of the company and the state government to consolidate the state as a hub for automotive production, not only nationally, but also internationally.
The commitment to electromobility at the Toluca plant not only responds to global industry trends, but also to the need to generate jobs and strengthen the economy of the State of Mexico.
Thousands of new jobs are expected to be created around this project, benefiting both the local community and the country's automotive value chain.
Carlos Quezada, president of Stellantis Mexico, underscored the historical importance of the Toluca plant, which is now reinventing itself to produce electric vehicles, a symbol of both Mexican and Mexican pride.
In addition, this plant will not only supply the North American market, but will also export worldwide, reinforcing the strategic position of the State of Mexico in the global automotive industry.
