The American consumer might be the answer to all the problems Honda is having with the strong yen and the flooding in Thailand. Their facelifts are nothing to shout about, a few colors here and a fresh set of wheels there, but the Japanese automaker might be hoping for increased sales.
We say that because Honda has announced a $84 million investment in its Lincoln, Alabama assembly plant, to make more engines and light trucks. This will create another 100 jobs at the plant and will result in a production increase of 40,000 units from the current 300,000. Automotive News says their move is justified by a market increase of 10 percent through October this year.
Honda’s Lincoln plant currently makes the Odyseey, Pilot and Ridgeline, but the Acura RDX is likely to also join the roster.
