Spring Hill Assembly To Produce GMC Terrain, Chevy Equinox? CAW President Thinks So

When the General Motors assembly plant in Spring Hill, Tennessee fires back up sometime in 2012, it will be producing two “midsized vehicles,” according to the United Auto Workers union. Subsequently, Canadian Auto Workers President Ken Lewenza has expressed concern that The General will be shifting production of the currently Oshawa, Ontario-built Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain midsized crossovers. But he could be overreacting.

As of Sept. 1, GM had only a 33-day supply of the Equinox and a 42-day supply of the Terrain. It may sound like a lot, but that number is actually quite low, especially for the high-volume sellers that they are. If Spring Hill does indeed end up producing more Equinox and Terrain crossovers along with the Oshawa plant, it will undoubtedly bring those numbers up to a more preferred status.

  1. Let’s face it GM reserves the right to move production wherever it wants it, springhill makes more logistical sense. However I would like to see more diversity in product.

  2. Surprised the lack of awarness on the part of CAW; but GM produces a number of vehicles there, not sure what big deal is.

  3. no this probably may not be the case the plant will be used for other purposes, also have you looked a gm.com lately, you will see the frame of the next gen pickup midsize and also look behind the frame and you will see the next gen of the lacrosse, this type of info will be ongoing at the gm site.
