Visiting the Piquette Plant with the Michigan Auto Caucus
I’m hitting the ground running here at MICHauto!
Today we visited the Ford Piquette Avenue Plant in Detroit with the Michigan Auto Caucus in tow.
Founded in 2015, the Auto Caucus is dedicated to ensuring Michigan’s business climate remains competitive and supports the state’s global leadership in next-generation mobility technology and its signature industry. Since its formation, the Caucus has taken a leadership role in defining policy such as the SAVE Act legislation put in place in 2016 to establish regulations for the testing, use and the eventual sale of autonomous vehicle legislation.
As the birthplace of the Ford Model T car, the Ford Piquette Avenue Plant is recognized as one of the most significant automotive heritage sites in the world. For the Auto Caucus to visit this place and understand the history of where we have been and what we need to succeed in the future, is critical to our success!
