Acura NSX Plant
 |
Washington DC The AIADA newsletter reported that it's easy to miss the big picture when it comes to the 2017 Acura NSX and the small plant where it is built in the rolling hills of Central Ohio, reports The Detroit Free Press.
Acura executives are quick to say that the low-slung, 2017 Acura NSX with all of its curvy, seductive lines is the "pinnacle expression for this brand."
Honda is building its new super car in a 206,000-square-foot plant that is designed to be a cauldron of new, high-tech manufacturing processes that Honda can learn from and, in some cases, adapt at other plants around the world. The plant, which Acura calls its Performance Manufacturing Center, along with the nearby Honda Heritage Center, also is designed to be a showpiece for customers and tourists.
"When our team got together, we brainstormed what we wanted this plant to be. The way we looked at this whole project is based on Formula 1 racing," said Clement D'Souza, who led the creation of the innovative plant. If it all goes as planned, the 2017 Acura NSX and the plant will evolve into the crown jewel of Honda's North American manufacturing presence and will become the envy of other automakers who lack similar gleaming showpieces.
