GM to move Buick Envision production to US from China
- On January 22, 2026, General Motors Co. announced it will move production of the next-generation Buick Envision to Fairfax Assembly plant, Kansas City, Kansas, for North American market sales beginning in 2028.
- Facing 25% tariffs and policy shifts, General Motors Co. framed the onshoring as a response to pressure from President Donald Trump and EV incentive changes.
- The Fairfax plant will begin gas-powered Chevrolet Equinox production in 2027, following a limited Chevrolet Bolt run, with Buick Envision to share the Equinox platform.
- Workers at Fairfax face ongoing layoffs with 900 on indefinite layoff, and GM expects a second shift to return in 2027 while selling Fairfax-built Envision in the North American market and continuing China production for non-U.S. markets.
- The decision builds on $5.5 billion in new U.S. investments and strengthens General Motors Co.'s domestic manufacturing footprint, despite about a $6 billion hit earlier this month.
