Building A Legacy

Our Success is Powered by Our Impact.

Our Indiana Auto Plant has been a cornerstone of automotive excellence for more than 15 years. Since beginning Civic sedan production in 2008, the plant expanded in September 2021 with a $50.2 million investment, enabling the mass production of the Civic Hatchback in the U.S. for the first time, marking the start of a new era. In addition to the Civic, the plant also proudly produces the Honda CR-V, one of America’s best-selling SUVs, further solidifying its role in Honda’s North American manufacturing network.
