One thing you might not
know about Honda is that it is one of many companies building cars in America
for American buyers, like those at Superior Honda in Cincinnati, OH. It cuts
down on import/export costs. Now, vehicles built in the US may head to
Korea.
Cars built in the US,
like Honda
Accord, may be shipped to Korea soon, as the weak yen makes
it expensive to produce at home. Honda plans to import cars into Asia from
America.
"Honda Motor Co is
considering importing more cars into South Korea from the United States instead
of neighbouring Japan, its chief executive said on Wednesday, in a move aimed
at avoiding damage from the yen's strength."1
It brings up an interesting
observation - will these exported American vehicles keep the same dimensions as
they do here, or will smaller versions be made to send into Korea? North
American versions of Japanese cars tend to be somewhat larger than the Japan
counterpart, since American car buyers want/need more room. Also, the US
infrastructure includes wider, less crowded highways.
You can find everything
that Honda has to offer at Superior Honda - 4777 Spring Grove Avenue
Cincinnati, OH 45232.
