GM is temporarily pausing production of the GMC Hummer EV and Cadillac Escalade IQ at its Factory Zero plant in Michigan, according to the Detroit Free Press. The partial shutdown will affect both first and second shifts from September 2nd through October 6th, impacting around 360 factory workers.
“Factory Zero is making temporary adjustments to production to align to market dynamics,” General Motors spokesman Kevin Kelly said in a statement to GM Authority. “General Motors updates schedules as part of our standard process of aligning production to manage vehicle inventory. Impacted employees will be placed on a temporary layoff and may be eligible for subpay and benefits in accordance with the GM-UAW national contract.”
