Honda Motor announced a three‑billion‑dollar investment to build a new vehicle assembly plant near its Marysville facilities.

The plant will begin production in twenty‑nine, with a capacity of two‑hundred‑forty‑thousand vehicles annually and will create more than two‑thousand jobs.

It will produce traditional internal‑combustion, all‑electric, and hybrid models, expanding Honda’s light‑duty vehicle capacity to one‑point‑three million units annually in the United States.

This is Honda’s first new mass‑production U.S. plant since the Indiana facility opened in two‑zero‑zero‑eight, following a $70‑million performance plant in two‑zero‑one‑six and a joint‑venture battery plant earlier this year.

The investment follows the suspension of an eleven‑billion‑dollar Canadian EV plan and the cancellation of three U.S. electric models.
