GM pushes ahead with expansion in Mexico
But it hasn't said as much about this as Ford, after its rival takes the blows from Donald Trump for moving jobs to the country

GM is advancing on an US$800 million investment for its global small-car line-up that includes a factory retooling in San Luis Potosi state. That plant and another facility in Mexico will also build the all-new Chevy Equinox sport-utility vehicle next year, people familiar with the matter said.
