Supply for Success

The right sources are the keys to a successful production process and completion of a project.

Ford Motors recently set up a new Van Dyke transmission manufacturing plant in Michigan, USA. What makes this plant different from the other plants around the country is that the plant has an advanced flexible assembly line, which will be producing the only front wheel-drive hybrid transmission in the United States.

The company, which has invested $220 million into the project, will be producing five different hybrid automobiles: the Ford C-Max Hybrid, C-Max Energi Plug-In Hybrid, Ford Fusion Hybrid, Fusion Energi, and the Lincoln MKZ Hybrid.
