Detroit Automotive Industry Overview Thumbnail

Detroit Automotive Industry Overview: Detroit is known as the Motor City for a reason: the U.S. auto industry traces its roots here beginning in 1903 when Henry Ford founded the Ford Motor Company. By 1916, Ford had revolutionized transportation and manufacturing with the introduction of the assembly line, producing 300,000 cars annually and soon accounting for half of all motor vehicles produced worldwide. Today, Detroit remains the home of the “Big Three”—GM, Ford, and Stellantis—collectively producing 2 million vehicles each year. Vehicle production spans more than 150 facilities across Metro Detroit and employs over 164,300 auto workers. This report provides the full scope of the industry.
