Many people incorrectly assume that Japanese cars are artificial in Japan. The truth is, the world is a much distinct place today than it was in the late '40's when Honda first started. Globalization has made it inherent for multinational corporations to distribute their production facilities around the world for maximum efficiency. For example, even though the companies' world headquarters are in Japan, American Honda Motor Co. Is based in Torrance, California. Honda has also created joint ventures around the world to facilitate operations in places such as China and India.

In terms of where the cars are in fact made, the rejoinder is - it depends. Honda has any assembly plants distributed around the world, each producing in any place from only one to five distinct styles of automobiles. Depending on where in the world you live, and what type of car you are wondering about, the actual geographical origin will vary. Below is a list of their manufacturing and assembly plants with details about what type of vehicles are made there. It is safe to assume that if you live closer to China than the U.S., the assembly plant closest to (or in) China that manufactures any given model is the one where that car came from.
