The carmaking giant is investing £230m in its Halewood plant as it moves to electrify its vehicles.
Ford Motor Co. plans to spend up to 230 million pounds (US$315 million) to turn a transmission factory in northwest England into a plant that will make electric power units for cars and trucks sold throughout Europe.
