The talk about making electric cars at Foxconn’s plant in Mount Pleasant is becoming more formal.
The WEDC this week said it has ‘engaged’ in site selection talks with both Foxconn and the electric car maker Fisker. No one is saying just where the talks are, or where they are headed. Foxconn announced a partnership with Fisker back in February, and the two companies said Foxconn’s Wisconsin plant is one of the choices to build electric cars in the United States. The WEDC and Governor Evers announced a new deal with Foxconn back in April that resets the jobs goal from the company. The new deal means Foxconn will likely see its first money from the state later this year.
