Alfa Considering Shuttered Detroit Three Plants, Case New Holland for American Production

alfa romeo is getting more specific in its ongoing search for an american manufacturing location, and is in view of two distinct possible solutions.

Sources familiar with the project disclosed the possibility of using one of any number of closed automotive factories formerly in use by one of the Detroit three companies. Another scenario has parent company Fiat expanding an existing Case New Holland agricultural machinery plant. Fiat is the owner of Case New Holland, which owns and operates 11 plants within North America.
