The engine plant's production capacity will increase from 250,000 to 330,000 units per year, an additional output of 80,000 diesel engines

Ford to introduce a third production shift at the engine assembly plant, creating more than 300 new direct jobs

Expansion will bring Ford's total investment in India to more than US $1 billion

"The new investment also further supports our plan to introduce eight new global Ford vehicles in India by 2015," Boneham added. "When the expansion is finished, a third production shift will be added at the engine assembly plant, creating more than 300 new direct jobs."

The new investment is part of Ford India's transformation into a major global export and manufacturing hub - 1.6 TiVCT, 1.4 HC and Duratorq engines will be exported from the country.
