The United States is reclaiming its position as a global leader in advanced manufacturing. Honda's $4.4 billion Ohio investment—spanning Marysville, Fayette County, and beyond to create American-made vehicles and components—represents a critical step toward a stronger domestic supply chain and reduced reliance on overseas production.
Federal investments through the CHIPS and Science Act are driving this historic reshoring of manufacturing jobs. Union County is at the center of this transformation—and the skills needed for modern auto manufacturing apply across powertrains.
“Honda and LG Energy Solution had many other states vying for this historic investment, and they chose Ohio. Ohio's talented workforce and strong business environment continue to be a winning combination.”
Honda Marysville has been building vehicles in Ohio for over 40 years. Now they're leading powertrain modernization.
