A fourth plant in Detroit assembly plant that was also slated for closure, as previously reported by CNBC, will be spared to build a new all-electric pickup for the automaker, if the deal is ratified. The plant is still slated to end production of the Cadillac CT6 and Chevrolet Impala by January.

A timeframe for production of the pickup and the complete closures of the other U.S. facilities was not disclosed by the union, however the three plants were already idled by the automaker earlier this year. GM declined to comment.

Battery cell production
GM, in a statement, said it remains “committed to future investment and job growth” in Ohio. GM told the union it would bring battery cell production to Mahoning Valley, a region that includes Lordstown in Ohio.

The plans, according to GM, would create about 1,000 manufacturing jobs, and include the sale Lordstown to Lordstown Motors Corp., a new company that plans to build electric pickups for commercial fleet customers. That company plans to initially create 400 jobs, GM said.


only plant staying is the one being sold to LORDSTOWN MOTORS
