New Order

-Honda Motor’s new N-Box mini-vehicle scheduled for launch on December 16 will use a windshield produced by the Fuyao Glass Industry Group, a major glass manufacturer in China. This is the first time for Honda to choose a China-made windshield for its vehicles, which helps the automaker slash production cost. Fuyao’s windshields will be imported from China to be fed to Honda’s assembly lines in Japan. The products will be also installed on an N-Box-based new model to be released in the spring of 2012. Honda, which will put the N-Box into the highly price-competitive mini-vehicle market, is procuring 15 percent of its components outside Japan. The automaker is poised to adopt foreign products flexibly to offer more cost-efficient vehicles to the market. (From an article in the Nikkan Jidosha Shimbun on December 15, 2011)
