MONTGOMERY, Ala. - A group of Chinese investors plans to construct a large-scale
plant to manufacture hybrid automobiles in northern Baldwin County
near Mobile.
Gov. Bob Riley and the chairman of H.K Motors, Yung
"Benjamin" Yeung said the company is expected to begin operations
in 2013 and will create more than 5,000 jobs.
Yeung said the company chose Alabama for the project because
of the strength of the state's economy.
He said the company will manufacture environmentally friendly
vehicles that will use a hybrid engine. The engine will use natural
gas, electricity and gasoline.
Hyundai, Mercedes-Benz and Honda currently have vehicle
assembly plants in Alabama.
