Honda completes expansion of Ohio engine plant
ANNA, Ohio -
Honda Motor Co. says it has completed a $138 million expansion of its engine plant in the western Ohio village of Anna.
The automaker says the move increases its manufacturing capacity in North America and enables it to respond more quickly to changing customer demands.
Completion of the two-year expansion, announced Thursday, will enable the plant to produce nearly all of its steel engine parts that previously were imported from Japan.
The expansion has created 100 new jobs, pushing total plant employment to about 2,800.
The factory will supply engines to Honda's new plant in Greensburg, Ind.

Honda sales plunge 24% in September |

Honda sales plunge 24% in September
A month of escalating economic worries made its mark on Honda Motor Co. Ltd.’s U.S. sales, which fell nearly a fourth in September.
Torrance, Calif.-based American Honda Motor Co., the automaker’s U.S. sales arm, said it sold 96,626 cars and light trucks last month, down 24 percent from 127,200 a year earlier. All models in the company’s Honda division and its luxury Acura division saw sales drop, with the exception of Honda’s compact Fit.
Honda is building a $550 million manufacturing plant in Greensburg, Ind., about 60 miles west of Cincinnati. The plant was expected to begin producing Honda sedans this year, with a capacity of 200,000 vehicles annually.
“This September was an incredibly volatile month for Wall Street,” Dick Colliver, executive vice president of sales for American Honda, said in a release. “Obviously, no one is immune to market shifts as dramatic as we have been seeing.”
Sales declines were even worse for other major automakers. Toyota Motor Corp. and Ford Motor Co. reported sales declines of about one-third for the month.
The decline in American Honda sales last month accounts for a 23 percent drop in Honda division sales, which totaled 86,629 vehicles in September down from 112,831 last year. Acura sales tumbled 30 percent to 9,997 vehicles from 14,369.

Lotus Helps Development of Honda Civic Hybrid Race Car
Honda Civic Hybrid IMA Race CarBet you never thought you’d see a Honda Civic IMA Hybrid in the air like the one in featured in the picture above. Of course, this isn’t your ordinary hybrid but a race prepped version of the eco-friendly Civic created by Oaktec. The Lancashire based company has been developing the Honda Hybrid system for motorsport since 2004. Oaktec took part in several rallies around the UK winning the F1000 Class A Championship in 2006 with a Honda Insight. Now Oaktec has joined forces with Lotus to develop the performance of a Civic Hybrid for rallying and circuit racing.
Honda Civic Hybrid IMA Race CarThough no details on the car’s specifications have been revealed yet, Phil Barker, Chief Engineer of Hybrid and Electric Vehicle Technologies at Lotus said that the British automaker will work with Oaktec to create a revised electrical specification for more power and a control system...

Honda to offer hybrid motorcycles from 2011 |

Honda to offer hybrid motorcycles from 2011
Honda Motor Co. will start selling hybrid motorcycles as early as the mid-2010s, and with smaller electric motorcycles coming out as early as 2011, the automaker has announced.
The move is part of Honda's efforts to cope with rising gasoline prices and global warming by applying its 4-wheeled hybrid and battery technology to motorcycles.
Adding a hybrid engine and battery to a motorcycle's traditional internal combustion engine was thought to present too many engineering problems, not least that of size. However, Honda believes that it can shrink a hybrid engine enough to be mounted on a motorcycle frame.
The hybrid motorbikes will be available in engine displacements between 200 and 1,000 cc, and, according to Honda, will be 50 percent more fuel-efficient. Production will be cut by using common components in both hybrid cars and motorcycles.
Honda will also be producing a new line of electric scooters, and a successor to the Cub series motorbikes for commercial use, with an engine size of 50 to 125 cc.
Though with a limited range -- a smaller electric motorcycle will only be able to run about 30 kilometers on one charge -- fuel costs will be smaller than that of a gasoline motorcycle.
