Fairfax Assembly

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fairfax Assembly is a General Motors automobile factory in Kansas City, Kansas. It was opened in 1987 and currently produces the Chevrolet Malibu and the Saturn Aura. As of July 2006, the local Kansas City council is attempting to entice GM to produce a new mid-size vehicle here with $146,000,000 in bonds. Harbour Consulting rated it as the fourth most efficient auto plant in North America in 2006[1].

The Fairfax assembly plant is located at Fairfax Airport which was the former location of the North American Bomber Production Plant where the B-25 Mitchell was manufactured during World War II.
