TOLEDO — Big win for the Glass City. Ohio State Rep. Michele Grim (D-Toledo) announced that Mobis North America is investing $13.8 million to manufacture a new electric vehicle battery assembly plant in Toledo — creating 185 manufacturing jobs.

The Ohio Tax Credit Authority approved a Job Creation Tax Credit for Mobis, sealing the deal.

“This investment will bring valuable cutting-edge jobs to Toledo and the greater Lucas County area. Mobis will continue to be an essential partner in fostering long term growth. This only marks the beginning of Toledo’s continuous growth in the electric vehicle market,” Grim said.

The investment solidifies Mobis’ commitment to Northwest Ohio as the seat of its operations — and signals that Toledo’s EV future is just getting started.
