Honda associates today celebrated their 30th anniversary as Honda Transmission Plant-Ohio (TMP-O) in Russells Point, Ohio, honoring an incredible legacy of flexible manufacturing. Since production began in 1996, the plant has produced the award-winning two-motor hybrid system that helps power Honda hybrid-electric vehicles, continuously variable transmissions (CVT) differentials for Honda and Acura all-wheel drive vehicles and other key components.

With a total investment of more than $1 billion, the 1.1-million square-foot Ohio transmission plant employs more than 1,200 associates, with the annual capacity to produce more than 1 million transmissions and gear shifts, 500,000 two-motor hybrid systems, along with transfer cases and differentials for four-wheel drive vehicles.

“For thirty years Honda associates at Russells Point have produced an incredible 26 million transmissions that have helped to power the future,” said Ohio Governor Mike DeWine.  “Congratulations on achieving this incredible milestone.”
