Dawn Perry is an environmental engineer at Mitsubishi Motors in Normal, Illinois. She began at Mitsubishi 11 years ago. The plant opened in 1988, employs 1300 people and currently produces the Mitsubishi Galant. Starting in mid-2012, the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport, a fuel-efficient, crossover sport utility vehicle, will also be built in Normal. The plant continues to be a leader in promoting environmental awareness as it produces its vehicles. Mitsubishi has been moving ahead with electric vehicles. In fact, the automaker has nicknamed the community "EV Town USA," and even provides electric cars that locals can borrow -- just like a library book.
Kudos to Mitsubishi Motors for it's commitment to the North American automobile market; including their only U.S. automobile, unionized plant in Normal, Illinois. :-)
