The Maraimalai Nagar site in south Indian state Tamil Nadu will be retooled to make high-tech engines for the export markets with an annual capacity of 235,000 units, Ford said. Details on engine type and where they’ll be exported to will be announced closer to the start of production, it said.

Bloomberg first reported the plans on Thursday.
