General Motors Co.’s tentative agreement ending a six-week strike by the United Auto Workers union includes a $13 billion investment in US operations and better pay for workers at its battery plants.
GM is investing $4 billion at its Orion Assembly plant outside Detroit toward future vehicles, the union said Saturday. The automaker will also invest $2 billion in its electric-vehicle assembly plant in Spring Hill, Tennessee, where the company already makes the Cadillac Lyriq EV.
