Honda Reportedly Plans Acura MDX Production in Ohio Plant

Honda is reportedly set to produce the next-generation Acura MDX, along with two flagship SUVs, at its new plant in Ohio. This was reported by the automotive publication Motor1, citing industry data. The names of the two SUVs were not disclosed in the source, nor were their technical specifications, so it is currently impossible to determine which models will be included in the program.

The investment in the project is estimated at approximately $3.38 billion. According to available data, the production expansion will create about 2,390 jobs across the state of Ohio. The main goal of the modernization is reportedly to increase output of hybrid vehicles, which have occupied an increasingly prominent place in the Japanese automaker's lineup in recent years.

Acura, Honda's premium division, is known in the United States for its large family crossovers, and the MDX is one of the brand's key models. This model is reportedly set to be the first for which the next generation will be produced at the new facility. The source does not name the exact start date of serial production, nor the specific location of the plant within the state.

It is important to note that the information is based on a single source and has not yet been independently confirmed. The editorial team has no official company comments confirming the investment amount, the number of jobs, or the composition of the future model lineup. Hybrid output targets and the phasing of job creation have also not been disclosed, so the full picture of the project remains unclear.
