Honda Ties for Leading Automaker in Cars.com 2022 American-Made Index with Four Models in Top 10
June 21, 2022 — MARYSVILLE, Ohio
- Alabama-built #hondapassport, Ridgeline, Odyssey, Pilot in top 10
- Ohio-built #acuramdx, RDX and TLX in top 20
- More than two-thirds of Honda automobiles sold in the U.S. are made in America
Honda’s commitment to building* products in #America was on display in the #Cars.com 2022 American-Made Index® — with four Honda models in the top 10 and seven Honda and Acura models ranking among the top 20.
Honda vehicles in the top 10 are the Alabama-made #hondapassport SUV, Ridgeline pickup, Odyssey minivan and Pilot SUV. Three Ohio-made Acura models — the Acura flagship, fourth generation MDX SUV, RDX premium sport crossover and TLX premium sport sedan — placed 14th, 15th and 16th respectively.
All four of the Honda models in the top 10 —Passport, Ridgeline, Odyssey and Pilot — also were designed and developed by Honda engineers in the U.S. and are produced exclusively in Lincoln, #alabama. Moreover, the engines that power these vehicles also are built at Honda’s #alabama #auto Plant, with the transmissions produced nearby at Honda’s transmission plant in Tallapoosa, Georgia.
"Honda began #auto production in #Ohio 40 years ago based on our commitment to build products close to our U.S. customers,” said #rickschostek, executive vice president of American Honda Motor Co., Inc. "We’re proud of the team of nearly 30,000 Honda associates in the U.S., particularly those who produce quality Honda and Acura vehicles at our five #auto manufacturing plants in #America, including our development and purchasing associates who work together to realize our high level of local production."
More than two-thirds of the Honda vehicles sold in the U.S. in 2021 were made in #America at Honda plants in #Ohio, #indiana and #alabama, the second-highest percentage of any full-line automaker for the share of vehicles that were built and sold in #America. Honda operates five automobile plants in the U.S. – more than any other international automaker.
All Acura models sold in the U.S. are built in #Ohio. The #acuramdx, RDX and TLX built in #Ohio, also were designed and developed by Honda engineers in the U.S.
Honda has produced more than 29 million #Cars and light trucks in the U.S. over the last 40 years and has purchased $470 billion in parts and materials from U.S. mass production suppliers during that same time period.
Cars.com assesses several factors for the American-Made Index: location of final assembly; percentage of U.S. and Canadian parts; country of origin for available engines; country of origin for available transmissions; U.S. manufacturing employees relative to the automaker's footprint.
