Several foreign auto companies have expanded operations and announced new investments in Mexico this year.
In October, foreign automakers Volkswagen (ETR:VOWG_p) and Continental pledged major investments totaling nearly $1 billion, while earlier this year, Nissan (OTC:NSANY) announced an investment of $700 million over the next three years.
The influx of money from the automotive industry could continue in Mexico, after Jeep maker Stellantis reported to be looking to invest billions to make electric vehicles in the country and Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk is considering investing in the country’s north, according to sources consulted by Reuters.
