Honda Is Made in America
As other auto manufacturers begin to abandon sedans and other car models, Honda’s presence in the U.S. remains strong.
Ford made headlines last year after announcing it will halt production of the Fiesta, Focus, Fusion, and Taurus, eliminating almost 90 percent of their North American car lineup by 2020. It is yet to be seen how this will affect American jobs, however, the Ford Motor Co. will begin cutting thousands of jobs throughout Europe and potentially closing factories as well. More recently, General Motors revealed plans to restructure their lineup, discontinuing various models under the GM umbrella like the Chevrolet Cruze, Impala, and Volt; the Cadillac CT6 and Cadillac XTS; and the Buick LaCrosse. According to Car and Driver, this cost-saving tactic will result in several North American plants being shut down before the end of this year. Conversely, Honda’s U.S. plants manufactured nearly two-thirds of the Honda and Acura vehicles sold in America in 2018 and have shown no signs of slowing down car production.
