NEW YORK, Aug. 28 (Xinhua) -- Production at an electric vehicle battery cell plant jointly run by General Motors and Samsung SDI has been delayed as EV sales have slowed in the United States, reported The Associated Press (AP) on Wednesday.

The companies finalized their agreement on Tuesday to jointly run the new factory in New Carlisle, Indiana, near South Bend, but said production would not start until 2027, according to the report. Previously the plant was expected to start making cells in 2026.
