Stellantis is betting big on U.S. manufacturing, with a $13 billion investment plan across Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, and Indiana.

Over the next four years, the automaker aims to boost its North American vehicle output by roughly 50% while creating about 5,000 new jobs. The funding will reopen the once-idle Belvidere plant in Illinois, upgrade multiple assembly sites, and prepare facilities for next-generation EV and hybrid production.

Among the highlights: Belvidere is set to return by 2027 with Jeep production, Toledo will add a new mid-size pickup line, and Michigan and Indiana plants will be retooled for upcoming SUVs and a new 4-cylinder engine.

This move signals Stellantis’s push to localize manufacturing, secure supply chains, and position itself for the next wave of electric and hybrid vehicle demand, while strengthening the Midwest’s long-standing role as America’s automotive heartland.
