Volkswagen Chattanooga Assembly Plant, Tennessee

VW built this 1,900,000 square foot assembly plant on a former munitions plant, in 2010. It became the company’s only US plant, after its Westmoreland Pennsylvania plant closed in 1988, after ten years or so of operation. The Chattanooga Plant employed around 2,000 people, and made around 150,000 cars per year, out of the 325,000 or so it sold in the USA annually.
