Despite the will-they, won\u2019t-they uncertainty surrounding the future of tariffs<\/a> and union jobs and \u2013\u00a0let\u2019s face it \u2013\u00a0just about everything else in every industry these days, GM says it has no plans to move production of its Ultium-based EVs from Mexico to the US.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

GM has exclusively produced electric cars at its plant in Ramos Arizpe, Mexico since last year, and has created some 5,000 new jobs in the area according to economist Raquel Buenrostro, who currently serves as Mexico\u2019s Secretary of Anti-Corruption and Good Government<\/a>. And those cars \u2013\u00a0including the popular Chevy Equinox EV and Honda\u2019s hot-selling Prologue<\/a> \u2013\u00a0have been huge hits in their respective segments.<\/p>\n

The General seems to know a good thing when it sees one, so it should come as no surprise to learn that GM has no plans to scuttle its assembly lines out of the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt this time, GM has no plans to halt or relocate production of any of our EV models made in Mexico,\u201d the director of GM de M\u00e9xico\u2019s EV operations, Adri\u00e1n Enciso, told the Spanish-language newspaper, Milenio<\/a><\/em>. \u201cIt\u2019s possible that additional models, such as (the new 2026 Chevy Spark<\/a>) could be built here, too.\u201d<\/p>\n

Market Watch<\/a><\/em> is reporting that the proposed tariffs, if they take effect, could raise GM\u2019s cost to make electric cars in Mexico by up to $4,300 per vehicle. But while that could put a significant per-unit dent in GM\u2019s profits, it\u2019s worth noting that the EVs might continue to be built in Mexico and sold in Canada and other markets \u2013\u00a0the new Spark, especially, is targeted towards Central and South America<\/a>, anyway.<\/p>\n

And, frankly, GM can afford it<\/a>.<\/p>\n
