It appears increasingly certain that Audi will announce US production facilities in 2009, and increasingly likely that if they make that announcement, it may well involve Chattanooga.
Today, Motor Trend reports, "In the past six months, Audi has gone from mulling over the idea of a U.S. production plant to now needing one, according to Volkswagen Group CEO Martin Winterkorn. Ever since Volkswagen announced its intentions to build an assembly plant stateside, Audi has sniffing around for one of their own and the latest reports indicate that a possible plan to produce Audis at Volkswagen's plant rather than build a second plant is the most likely scenario. Winterkorn, though, wouldn't confirm just where Audis will be built in the future."
The story includes some details an and links to other stories supporting the speculation that the VW plant will produce both Audi and perhaps Porsche.
