Automotive manufacturer Honda of Canada Mfg. plans to upgrade its operations in Alliston, Ontario, Canada.

The $117.6 million project will include the reintroduction of engine manufacturing at the company's existing facility, increasing production flexibility, efficiency and capacity for next-generation hybrid-electric and gasoline-powered vehicles.

“For 40 years, Honda associates in Alliston have demonstrated the skill, innovation and commitment that have made our Canadian operations a cornerstone of Honda's manufacturing network in North America,” said Honda Canada Inc. President and CEO Dave Jamieson. “This renewed investment reinforces Canada's critical role in Honda's North American growth and hybrid-electric vehicle strategy and helps position our operations for long-term competitiveness and future opportunities. It reflects the dedication of our more than 4,000 associates and will generate lasting benefits for our suppliers, local communities and the broader Canadian economy. Together with the Government of Canada and the Province of Ontario, we are investing in the future of Canadian manufacturing and creating a foundation for continued growth, innovation and opportunity for generations to come.”

Honda of Canada Mfg. is a subsidiary of Japan-based Honda Motor Co., Ltd., specializing in the production of passenger vehicles and automotive components. The company’s operations include vehicle assembly, engine manufacturing, and the production of Honda Civic and CR-V models for North American markets.

“Ontario has long stood at the forefront of global auto manufacturing, and in the face of uncertainty, our government is taking dedicated actions to protect our world-class workers and sustain this vital industry. We are proud to stand as partner to Honda in this investment and look forward to seeing this retooling enhance their Alliston's operations, while further anchoring Ontario workers at the heart of their North American supply chain,” noted Ontario Minister of Economic Development, Job Creation and Trade Vic Fedeli.
