SEOUL: General Motors Co's South Korean unit plans to sharply cut output this month at a factory producing its new Trailblazer sport-utility vehicle , as the coronavirus outbreak weighs on its US exports and also disrupts parts supplies.
A spokeswoman said the automaker has suspended the line until May 5 due to the virus impact on parts procurement and US sales, and that its production plan for the rest of May is subject to change. On parts, the government's virus response in the Philippines since mid-March has disrupted supplies of wiring harnesses, company officials said.South Korea recorded some of the earliest infections after the virus spread from China, where it was first reported at the end of last year. The export-reliant economy has since managed to control the outbreak and allowed manufacturers to resume production - only to be met with slumping overseas demand.
