The
Dodge Nitro
received the green light from DaimlerChrysler back in 2005 to be produced as a 2007 model. Now, sibling blog
Blogging Ohio posts that production of the SUV has began at Toledo's
Jeep Liberty plant. The
Nitro will be the first non-Jeep vehicle made there since production of the
Dodge Dakota ended in 1995. The American/German automaker spent $100 million to expand the plant resulting in the addition of 750 employees and 150
robots. Currently, there are no details on price, nor any information about how many SUVs will be produced at the plant.
