Honda to produce next Civic in Indiana, not Mexico, due to US tariffs: Reuters
- Honda will produce its next-generation Civic hybrid model in Indiana instead of Mexico to avoid potential tariffs, according to three people familiar with the matter.
- Production in Indiana is set to begin in May 2028, with an expected annual output of around 210,000 units, as reported by Reuters.
- This decision reflects the impact of U.S. President Donald Trump's proposed tariffs on goods from Mexico and Canada, marking the first concrete action by a major Japanese automaker in response to these tariffs.
- A Honda spokesperson noted that the company will consider demand and the business environment while planning global production and allocation.
