Honda’s Marysville, OH plant builds 10 millionth vehicle
Filed under: Plants/Manufacturing, Acura, Honda
Less than 28 years after becoming the very first Japanese brand to begin producing cars in the United States, Honda turned out the 10 millionth car from its Marysville, OH factory on Tuesday. Marysville began car production in November 1982 with the second generation Accord, and so it’s fitting that the landmark vehicle was also an Accord sedan. These days, Marysville also produces the Acura RDX and TL, but over the years the Accord has accounted for 8.5 million units of the total production volume.
Eighty-four percent of the vehicles sold by Honda and Acura in North America in 2009 were produced here. The nearby Anna engine plant will also celebrate a landmark this week with its 25th anniversary on Thursday. Congrats, Honda!
