The Honda plant in Lincoln has successfully churned out 272 057 vehicles in 2010. Honda of Alabama produced 119 573 Odyssey minivans, 121 331 Pilot SUVs, 20 174 Ridgeline pickup trucks and 10 979 Accord V6 sedans at the Lincoln facility. Final and official production numbers for these vehicles will be verified in January 2011.
Throughout 2010, Honda has maintained stability in its 4 000 workers and has increased output with Saturday overtime productions in the 3rd and 4th quarters of 2010.
Changes will be coming in 2011 with Honda's revised manufacturing system kicking in, allowing plants to adjust product mix due to market demand. Honda of Alabama will be increasing production of the Odyssey. Along with that, the Accord V6 will no longer be produced in Alabama as the entire V6 production of the sedan will move to Ohio in December. Line One will be building the Odyssey, Line Two will be building the Pilot and Ridgeline come the next few weeks.
