Honda plans to manufacture hybrids in the U.S.
On January 9, Honda CEO has announced at the Detroit Auto Show that the company will start manufacturing their newly introduced hybrid compact sedan in their factory in Indiana this spring. They also have a plan to start producing their new hybrid sports car, which they just revealed at the auto show, in their factory in Ohio within the next three years.
Currently Honda manufactures all hybrid vehicles in Japanese factories, however, unprecedented strength in yen is affecting the export revenues. The company will continue to manufacture the current lines of hybrid vehicles in Japan. This is the first time the company uses the factories in the U.S. to make the hybrid vehicles.
…perhaps this is a good news for some U.S. workers looking for factory jobs.
