Honda Celebrates 30th Anniversary Of Anna Engine Plant

Honda’s largest manufacturing plant in the world recently celebrated its 30th anniversary. The Honda of America Mfg.’s Anna Engine Plant first began production of Honda engines on July 22, 1985, and in the past thirty years has produced over 20 million engines. Over the years, this plant has grown considerably, increasing not only their production level but their staff size and the size of the plant itself. When the Anna Engine plant first opened there were only 94 associates, a number that has now grown to over 2,800. Additionally, through expansions, the plant’s size has increased to 2.4 million square feet. bringing their production level increased from an annual capacity of 1.16 million four and six-cylinder engines.

Some of the plant’s most significant expansions have been seen in just the past four years as Honda has invested over $800 million in the facility, which includes the construction of the brand’s most technically advanced engine assembly line in North America, which was constructed in 2014. Additionally, through these expansions, the plant has recently begun production of turbo engines such as the 2.0-liter VTEC® Turbo which will power the next generation of Honda Civics.

“Even more critical than the investments Honda has made in new technology is the passion and challenging spirit that our associates bring each day to the task of advancing Honda quality, efficiency and performance for our customers here in North America and around the world,” said Paul Dentinger, Anna Engine Plant Manager. “Truly, our associates are powering the future of Honda.”
