Since the hood is the largest of any U.S. Honda vehicle in its category, the production and development teams worked together to increase the rigidity of the hood by increasing the thickness of the steel plates. As a result, a bold and sophisticated design was successfully mass-produced.
In addition, the use of high-performance structural adhesives was increased to enhance body rigidity. New equipment and additional training for employees were also introduced for production.
The Canadian plant is scheduled to begin production of a hybrid version of the new CR-V in October, and as a result, the production of the new CR-V in Canada is expected to account for about half of its sales.”
