Hyundai makes cars in Montgomery, Alabama.
They need to add another shift to the plant, or even go to three shifts here. The multitude of suppliers along the I-85 corridor, too. also, Hyundai makes KIAs at their plant in West Point, Georgia. Expand, baby, expand!
Lots of parts containing rare earths and are critical for modern cars are only made in China at the present time - China refuses to sell rare earths to anyone unless the product/part using them is made there too.
How many parts used in American assembly plants are sourced from Chinese suppliers? That’s going to be the big problem.
Can American parts suppliers ramp up enough to overcome that? Do we even have enough automotive parts suppliers left in the U.S.?
Where do you think they get parts from?
