TUNICA, Miss. — A new electric car factory in northwest Mississippi has produced its first vehicle, and California-based Mullen Automotive is celebrating the fresh investment in the Mid-South’s growing EV industry.
John Schwegman, Mullen Automotive’s chief commercial officer, praised the convenient location about 30 miles south of Memphis, Tennessee, which he said helps with receiving supplies and shipping vehicles around the U.S. Other EV-related manufacturing in the Memphis area includes Ford’s joint venture with battery partner SK On of South Korea. Ford has said its assembly plant and battery plant in rural Stanton, Tennessee, will employ about 6,000 people with an investment of roughly $5.6 billion. Ford plans to start production by 2025. The plant will focus more on consumer vehicles.
