Stellantis announced Tuesday it will invest $13 billion US over the next four years to expand its manufacturing capacity in the U.S. — a move that will take production of one model out of Ontario and raises concerns about Canadian jobs.

The company, formerly called Chrysler, says the Jeep Compass, previously slated to be made at the Brampton Assembly Plant, will move to the Belvidere Assembly Plant in Illinois.

Stellantis says its new investments will increase its U.S. vehicle production by 50 per cent and add more than 5,000 jobs.
