In a move that may raise eyebrows among American car enthusiasts, it appears that General Motors' luxury brand Cadillac is considering outsourcing the engineering of its next small electric vehicle (EV) to China. According to a report from The Weekly Driver, the decision would be made possible by two US laws that allow companies to bypass domestic manufacturing requirements for certain vehicles. The laws, which pertain to vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating of less than 6,000 pounds, would enable Cadillac to sidestep stringent American manufacturing regulations and potentially save on production costs. However, the move could also spark concerns about the impact on US jobs and the country's automotive industry.
