General Motors, facing criticism from both President Trump and his Democratic rivals over recent plant shutdowns, promised Friday to invest an additional $1.8 billion in U.S. factories, one of which will build a vehicle originally slated for overseas production.

The spending, which includes a $300 million upgrade of an Orion, Mich., plant that will build a new electric vehicle under its Chevrolet nameplate, will create 700 more jobs and support 28,000 current positions in six states. The new Chevy will join the electric Bolt, furthering the Detroit-based company’s commitment to a technology widely promoted as reducing carbon emissions.
