Don't worry, consumers in Canada are unlikely to notice any changes, since the company is implementing the same procedures and materials that are used in its Japan facilities.
Honda Fit for Canada is the other vehicle in question, coming from a Chinese facility.Honda does have a manufacturing presence in Canada, however it will not be threatened with the recent addition of the China-produced vehicles. In-fact we have seen quite the opposite; 400 additional workers are being hired to work at the Alliston, Ontario plant. Fit sales were lower than Honda had expected last year, but there is anticipation to see them increase in 2012, according to Honda.
