Cobalt’s Come Home

There’s something special about your birthplace, where no matter where you end up, coming home always has a special feeling to it. This Saturday we invited ECOtec owners to come back to the birthplace of the Cobalt and get in on an exclusive tour of the entire facility. From frame construction to final assembly, the owners that attended got an unprecedented look at how their car was built and who put their car together.

There were a total of 134 people that attended the owners meet with eighty five ECOtec owners bringing their vehicles to the Lordstown facility. A majority of these owners came from CobaltSS.net, an online community of Cobalt enthusiasts, and brought their customized Cobalt’s to Lordstown from as far away as Texas and Mississippi to come see a tour of the plant. We hooked everyone up with special one-off Cobalt hats, posters, frisbees, stickers and tons of other goodies. We also set up a special catered lunch for all the owners, so that after their tour of the plant, they could sit down, relax and hang out with their long lost brothers.

Cobalt’s Come Home

The Lordstown Plant Facility is the highest volume single line vehicle assembly facility in the world with the main assembly building measuring over five million square feet and the full production line measuring over twenty one miles long. There are approximately 5,000 workers that put their individual touch into every single Cobalt before it leaves the Lordstown Facility. These workers work in shifts to produce roughly 1,500 Cobalt’s a day, which sometimes isn’t enough to meet demand!

Everyone at the Lordstown Plant couldn’t have been happier to have all the owners at their facility and they couldn’t have been better hosts. We’d like to thank all of the Lordstown men and women for opening their arms to all the ECOtec owners and making this VIP owner’s event as special as it was.
