Honda in America

Proudly Built in America: The Honda Legacy
At Serra Honda Grandville, we're proud to stand behind a brand that builds more than great vehicles, it builds opportunity, innovation, and community. Honda's made-in-America journey started decades ago, and today, millions of drivers are hitting the road in vehicles crafted by the hands of American workers. From concept to keys, it's all happening right here in the U.S.A. Whether it's your daily commute or a weekend adventure, your Honda is backed by generations of American skill and dedication. And as your trusted West Michigan Honda dealer, we're honored to connect our neighbors with vehicles that reflect the best of both worlds: global engineering and local heart.

Celebrating 50 Years of Honda Research & Development 
Honda's American story is one of vision, dedication, and community investment. What started in 1959 with a modest storefront in Southern California has grown into a nationwide footprint, including 12 manufacturing plants and more than $25.7 billion invested in U.S. operations.

But Honda's true investment? It's in people.

From the engineers designing the next generation of mobility to the skilled associates building every vehicle with care, Honda's commitment goes far beyond the assembly line. Empowering local talent to dream big has led to lasting careers, technological breakthroughs, and products that reach from the pavement to the skies.

As your local Honda experts, we're proud to support a brand that doesn't just build in America, it builds for America.
