General Motors of Canada is investing $250 million the CAMI Assembly Plant in Ingersoll, Ontario. The money will be used to install flexible body shop equipment and tooling to support future vehicle production.

“Conversion of the CAMI Assembly Plant to a flexible manufacturing facility will provide CAMI with the ability to produce multiple global architectures and body styles,” said Kevin Williams, President and Managing Director of General Motors of Canada.

As a result, CAMI will be able to build a higher variety of differentiated products, on multiple platforms, at much lower costs. This also gives GM the ability to launch new products at a faster pace.

This is all part of the automaker's increasing efforts to develop more flexible vehicle architectures and increase plant efficiencies.

Construction is expected to begin this spring.
