Honda to invest $3 billion in new vehicle assembly plant in Ohio
The plant will produce hybrids and other powertrains, with annual capacity of 240,000 vehicles and more than 2,000 new jobs, Honda said.
- On Monday, Honda Canada announced a $166 million investment to retool its Alliston, Ontario, manufacturing facility, partnering with federal and provincial governments to expand hybrid-electric and engine production.
- This funding is part of a broader $867 million commitment to strengthen Honda's North American manufacturing network, ensuring the automaker maintains its workforce of 4,000 Canadian employees.
- The company is pivoting toward hybrid vehicles following its May decision to indefinitely suspend a planned $15 billion electric vehicle complex in Alliston, attributed to shifting market demand.
- Simultaneously, Honda announced a $3 billion investment in a new Ohio automotive plant, creating more than 2,000 jobs and increasing North American production capacity to roughly 1.9 million vehicles.
- Honda Canada President and CEO Dave Jamieson said the investment will "position the Canadian operations for long-term competitiveness and future opportunities," supporting plans to introduce 15 hybrid models globally by 2030.
