Why it matters

The automotive context.

Automotive manufacturing is expanding across the United States. New assembly plants, upgrades to long-established factories and a growing base of component suppliers are bringing major investment to the Midwest and Southeast. Some of the country's largest manufacturing campuses are now under development in the South, linking vehicle production with new regional supply chains.
