MARYSVILLE, Ohio (WDTN) - Tuesday, Honda will unveil a new manufacturing site for the Acura N-S-X.
2 News has learned the new site will be located 8 miles west of Marysville near existing Honda plants.
Honda was the first Japanese automobile manufacturer to release a dedicated luxury brand, Acura, in 1986 and Ohio continues to benefit from their growth.
Honda already operates its largest North American engine plant in Anna with more than 24 hundred people working there.
In November it announced the expansion of that plant and the transmission plant in Russells Point with the planned addition of 200 jobs to the one thousand already employed there.
In January, Honda officials announced the 2014 Hybrid Accord would be built in Marysville adding another 50 jobs at that location.
Earlier this month, Midwest Express Group, a trucking and logistics company announced it would add 50 jobs in anticipation of the new deal with Honda's East Liberty plant in Logan County.
Honda tells us it has invested 800 million dollars in its four Ohio plants in the past three years.
