The project would mark Audi’s entry into company-owned U.S. vehicle production. Donald Trump publicly said Audi would make the investment, according to reporting by Clarín and The New Indian Express.
The investment figure differs slightly among reports: Clarín and The New Indian Express put it at $4.2 billion, while ANSA Economia reports $4 billion. Taken together, the available reporting indicates an investment of approximately $4 billion to $4.2 billion.
Clarín reports that the planned facility is expected to generate approximately 4,500 jobs in Georgia. The same report says construction is expected to begin in 2027, with production estimated for the early 2030s.
ANSA Economia reports that the plant would produce premium SUVs. The sources do not identify the specific location within Georgia, the exact production start date or the model lineup.
