Plant History: FCA announced on March 5, 2020, that it would invest $400 million to repurpose the former Indiana Transmission Plant II (ITPII), which had been idled since the fall of 2019, to build the GMET4 engine – the Company’s 2.0-liter Global Medium Engine inline four-cylinder turbo that is currently offered on the Jeep_® Wrangler, Jeep Compass and Jeep Grand Cherokee. With this investment, 1,000 Indiana jobs will be retained with nearly 200 new jobs added to support production.
