Honda in America: Built with Pride for the Roads

Honda in America: Built Here, Backed by Southpoint Honda


Honda set up shop in the United States back in 1959. What started small has grown into something major – more than $25.7 billion invested, 30,000+ U.S. associates, and 12 manufacturing plants all working together to build the vehicles millions of Americans trust every day.

At Southpoint Honda in Durham, we’re proud to stand behind a brand that doesn’t just sell vehicles here – it builds them with quality and care from start to finish.

American-Made Honda Models You Know

Honda began U.S. production with the Accord in Ohio back in 1982. Since then, more than 32 million Honda vehicles and 38 million engines have been built in America. Many of the top-selling Honda models on the road today are made in plants across Ohio, Indiana, and Alabama, including:

  • Honda Accord & Accord Hybrid
  • Honda CR-V & CR-V Hybrid
  • Honda Civic Hatchback & Civic Hatchback Hybrid
  • Honda Pilot
  • Honda Odyssey
  • Honda Ridgeline

Whether you’re commuting to Raleigh, heading to the mountains, or cruising through Chapel Hill, these vehicles are built to perform and built by American workers.

Supporting Jobs and American Ingenuity

Honda’s impact doesn’t stop at assembly. Across the U.S., the company helps fuel the economy with:

  • 665 U.S. Suppliers
  • 1,344 Dealerships
  • Over 93,000 Dealership Jobs
  • $30.6 Billion Spent with U.S. OEMs in 2024

And Honda is already preparing for what’s next. Over $1 billion has been invested in EV manufacturing upgrades, and a new $4.4 billion EV battery plant is under construction in Ohio – bringing 2,200 new jobs along with it.

Thanks to flexible manufacturing systems, Honda can build gas, hybrid, and electric vehicles all under the same roof – keeping the line moving and the innovation flowing.

Built in the U.S., Driving the World

Honda doesn’t just build for America – it builds from America. U.S.-assembled Honda vehicles are exported to 73 countries, showing that American-made quality can compete with the best anywhere on the planet.
