LS Cable & System Ltd. has announced an approximately US $156 million investment in LS Cable & System, S.A. de C.V. (LSCMX), its manufacturing subsidiary in Querétaro, Mexico. The investment includes the construction of new automotive cable production lines intended to support electric vehicle (EV) platforms.
The expanded facility will manufacture automotive cables used in EV power and signal distribution, supporting higher voltage and current requirements associated with electrified drivetrains and battery systems.
Locating this production in Mexico strengthens LS Cable & System’s North American manufacturing footprint and aligns supply with regional EV assembly operations in the United States and Mexico.
The investment supports tighter integration between LS Cable & System’s Mexico and US operations, reducing supply chain lead times and supporting localized sourcing for EV manufacturers. This is increasingly relevant as North American EV production scales and OEMs seek regional suppliers for critical electrical components.
LS Cable & System has made additional recent investments in North America that support electrification-related manufacturing, including cable and conductor production, magnet wire manufacturing, and materials processing. Together, these investments form a regional production network aimed at supporting growing demand for EVs and electrified power systems.
