R16B engines
#3
For the American market, a large number of models are produced in the East Liberty, Ohio and Lincoln, Alabama facilities. Models produced at the Ohio location include the Civic sedan and coupe (including GX trims, as well as the Element lines). The Alabama Honda factory handles production of the Honda Odyssey, Pilot and Ridgeline models in addition to the production of the US market V-6 engines. The Honda Accord is the exception to the American produced Honda line, with the Coupe and Sedan models built solely at Honda's Marysville, Ohio facility.
The Honda CR-V is unique among the Honda models, in that it is produced in three locations for the American market. While the East Liberty, Ohio facility produces as many as 400 CR-Vs a day, due to its popularity, models built in El Salto, Jalisco, Mexico as well as Sayama, Saitama, Japan may be imported to meet demand.
American market Hybrid models, such as the Civic Hybrid, Insight and FCX Clarity, are produced in Japan. All of these models as well as the Honda Fit line are produced at the Honda production facility in Suzuka, Mie, Japan with exception of the FCX Clarity, which is produced solely in Takanezawa, Japan.
Honda cars destined for the US market are manufactured primarily in the United States, while cars requiring specialized technology and design (such as the newer hybrid and hydrogen fuel cell models) are made solely in Japan. Though some manufacturing does take place in Mexico, it is limited solely to production of the CR-V.
