Dec. 7 (UPI) -- Fiat Chrysler Automobiles said it plans to reopen a dormant Detroit manufacturing plant to build its new Jeep Grand Cherokee.
The Mack II engine plant, on Detroit's Mack Avenue, would be the first auto assembly plant to open in the city in 27 years. It would produce 2021 Grand Cherokee models, the first of its kind with three-row seating. The Detroit News reported Thursday. An official statement from FCA is expected next week.
