CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. – Volkswagen is “actively” looking to establish new assembly and battery facilities in the U.S., Volkswagen of America CEO Scott Keogh told CNBC on Wednesday.

Keogh declined to discuss potential locations for such operations.

“We are actively in the process of looking at another production facility and also looking at a battery facility,” Keogh said in an interview.

Volkswagen is still discussing and evaluating its options, and no decisions have been made, a company spokesperson said.

Arizona was the other finalist in Rivian's locations for their $5b plant which ultimately went to Georgia. IMO It's only a matter of time before AZ lands another major player.
