GM is making a combined $275 million investment across the Spring Hill manufacturing complex, including $150 million in Spring Hill Assembly to support a future Cadillac internal-combustion product and $125 million in Spring Hill GPS to support the future of the 2.7L engine program.

This year, GM said it will spend approximately $9 billion across its U.S. manufacturing footprint, along with more than $7 billion on U.S. research and development.

Once the new Cadillac product is added, Spring Hill will become a five-vehicle operation.

At Spring Hill Engine, the $125 million investment will be used to refurbish equipment, extend the life of the 2.7L turbo engine program and support continued production of an engine that powers Chevrolet and GMC trucks, including Colorado, Canyon, Silverado and Sierra.

These latest announcements build on years of major investment in Spring Hill. In 2020, GM announced a $2 billion investment in Spring Hill Assembly. In 2021, GM and LG Energy Solution announced a $2.3 billion investment to build an EV battery plant in Spring Hill. And in 2025, GM announced Spring Hill would add Chevrolet Blazer production beginning in 2027 alongside Cadillac LYRIQ, LYRIQ-V, VISTIQ and next-generation XT5 production.
