    Default GM to build 2013 Cadillac XTS in China

    GM to build 2013 Cadillac XTS in China this year


    General Motors Co. announced Monday at the Beijing auto show that it will begin building its all-new 2013 Cadillac XTS sedan in China this year and later will build the ELR luxury electric coupe in the country.


    The production announcements mark a significant step in GM's push for Cadillac to become a global brand.


    "Introducing the XTS is part of our strategy of adding one new model per year to our Cadillac lineup in China through 2016 to address the needs of luxury car buyers nationwide," GM Chairman and CEO Dan Akerson said in a statement.


    ELR technology details, production location and its Chinese introduction date will be announced at a later time, according to a news release. The XTS will be available in the fourth quarter in China and will be manufactured by Shanghai General Motors, a partnership between GM and SAIC Motor Corp.


    The announcement follows a report earlier this month in The Detroit News that GM was expected to announce at the auto show that it would build XTS in China later this year. Joel Ewanick, GM's global chief marketing officer, also told The News that the all-new Cadillac ATS, a compact luxury sedan, and the popular midsize CTS sedan will eventually be built in China.


    Ewanick said GM will build its brand in China and then Europe to grow the brand over the next decade.

    ATF decided it could not regulate bump stocks during the Obama administration.
    It that time," the NRA wrote in a statement. "The NRA believes that devices designed to allow semiautomatic rifles to function like fully-automatic rifles should be subject to additional regulations."
    The ATF and Obama admin. ignored the NRA recommendations.

    As usual the liberals will defend the asshole with their last breath. Whats funny is that in February Obama is reading a speech from the teleprompter on bringing manufacturing jobs back to America to help restore middle class security, and calls for changing our tax code to stop rewarding businesses that ship jobs overseas. He must not have been referring to GM.

    Not one single American job is being moved to China as a result of this decision by GM. Some of you people just can't read and others need a fucking nap.

    is it safe to conclude that if they built this car in the US, Americans would have gotten jobs building it in the US?.....I think so....

    and by simple logic that even the Honey Island Swamp Fag should understand, those jobs are lost jobs......
