PRODUCT NEWS - Honda Swindon Plant Reopening Delayed, Production Will Not Catch Up
_____
In the latest news and according to Temple of VTEC, Honda’s Swindon, UK, plant will not reopen until June 10th when employees are called back. Therefore, production and supply chain won’t catch up for a couple months after that.
However, the bigger hurdle is that lost production of FK8s since the covid-19 shutdown until production resume will not be made up. That means for 2020 the production of FK8 will be down by that amount of units and even less 2020 cars available to purchase. Whatever production plan Honda had originally planned for is now cut back for 2020.
