Volvo is investing $43 million and expanding its powertrain facility in Hagerstown, Maryland.

The expansion will introduce a new machining operation, expand automated manual transmission (AMT) assembly, and add core logistics management. Volvo Group North America is adding 85 new jobs in the powertrain production plant, where it develops and produces heavy-duty diesel engines, transmissions, and axles for Volvo Group brands.

Schulz.
