Honda Canada to Build Electric Vehicle Battery Plant in Ontario

Honda Canada plans to establish an electric vehicle (EV) battery production facility near its Alliston, Ontario, assembly plant, where it intends to manufacture fully electric vehicles. The federal and Ontario governments are anticipated to announce the project this week, according to the Canadian Press. Ontario Premier Doug Ford hinted at a significant announcement during a First Nations conference, suggesting a deal twice the size of Volkswagen’s EV battery plant in St. Thomas, which carries a $7 billion investment. Honda’s project is expected to include capital commitments and tax credits, unlike the substantial production subsidies provided to Volkswagen and Stellantis LG in Windsor, Ontario, to counter the Inflation Reduction Act subsidies in the United States.
