Volkswagen will spend $800 million to expand a U.S. factory that will produce the automaker’s next generation of electric vehicles.

The factory in Chattanooga, Tenn. will be the company’s North American base for manufacturing electric vehicles, VW CEO Dr. Herbert Diess said during a presentation at the Detroit Auto Show on Monday. The expansion is expected to create 1,000 jobs at the plant.
