History edit

The plant was constructed as part of the Global Engine Alliance joint venture between DaimlerChrysler, Hyundai Motor Company, and Mitsubishi Motors and cost $803 million. Construction of the plant began in April 2003 and was complete in 2004. The North Plant opened in October 2005, and the South Plant opened in November 2006.[1] Chrysler launched production of the 1.4 L FIRE engine at the plant in November 2010, after a $179 million investment. An additional $150 million investment was also announced in October 2010 to be used for capacity expansion and future engine production.[1]

In January 2012, the name was officially changed from Global Engine Manufacturing Alliance to its current name. Also in 2012, Dundee started producing the 2.0 L Tigershark engine. On August 6, 2012, a second shift was added to FIRE engine production.[1]

In August 2013, Chrysler planned to invest in Dundee Engine and the Trenton Engine Plant with $52 million in improvements. $40.5 million was to go to Dundee to help aid Trenton with Tigershark engine production.[1]
