DSM became a result of the lasting past relationship between Mitsubishi and Chrysler that dated back to 1970 when Mitsubishi was able to sell their first products in the United States through Chrysler. DSM became a 50/50 joint venture between both companies, splitting both investment and profits equally. The facility was described as representing the best in Japanese and American plant technology to help produce high class automobiles. DSM also helped provide almost three thousand jobs in production and management Potential employees had to compelte a three month training program before beginning work. Mitsubishi and Chrysler choose Bloomington-Normal area due to the to multiple interstate highways and along with easy access to railroads and air transport. DSM started to produce three new kinds of vehicles: the Mitsubishi Eclipse, the Plymouth Laser, and the Eagle Talon during its first few years and the 100,000th car rolled off the line on January 22, 1990. In 1991, Mitsubishi took sole ownership of the plant by purchasing Chrysler’s interest. By 1995, Mitsubishi had renamed DSM to Mitsubishi Motors Manufacturing of America (MMMA) reflecting Mitsubishi's total ownership.
