Question Two-mode hybrid factory tours?

Hi,

Anyone know here these will be built and if they have a factory tour?

I'm just down the road from the Saturn plant but I'd really like to see the heavy metal hybrids when they are being built.

Thanks,
Bob Wilson

Default Re: Two-mode hybrid factory tours?

According to this article, the transmissions are built in White Marsh, Maryland:

And this article mentions an assembly plant in Arlington, Texas:

Not sure if either offers a tour.

I think the GM plant in Arlington,TX offers no tours to the public, much less the hybrid line?

I'll ask tomorrow, I'm employed by a very closely related company that does the post manufacturing load to railcar right down the street.
