Ford is planning to invest about 32.50 billion Indian rupees ($369.76 million) in India to make new engines, Bloomberg News reported on Thursday, citing a\u00a0person\u00a0familiar with the matter.<\/p>\n

The report said the Maraimalai Nagar manufacturing site in the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu would be retooled to make high-end engines for export markets with an annual capacity of over 200,000 units.<\/p>\n

The new engines will not be exported to the U.S., Bloomberg reported, adding that an announcement is expected as early as this week.<\/p>\n

The move comes even as President Donald Trump pushes companies to manufacture more in the United States by imposing tariffs on imports.<\/p>\n

Last year, the automaker signaled interest in plans to restart manufacturing at its factory in Tamil Nadu, after it stopped making cars in India in 2021.<\/p>\n

Ford did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.<\/p>\n
