Officials reportedly met with Ford, General Motors and Stellantis NV executives on Tuesday to discuss the impact of the tariffs and possible relief measures.

On the eve of President Trump's tariffs, Reuters reported Honda would move production of the popular Civic to Indiana. Honda declined to comment.

While several automakers have expressed concerns about the levies, Honda's move is the first concrete measure by a major Japanese car company.

Honda’s chief executive, Shinji Aoyama, says the tariffs could have a ‘$20 billion plus’ impact on the company.

A new report shows changing production plans as Honda looks to avoid impending tariffs on the hugely popular Civic and Civic Hybrid.

Honda had originally planned to build the next-generation Civic in Mexico, beginning in November 2027, but will instead produce the car in Indiana beginning in May 2028.

In fact, Honda says the EPA rating for a top-class 2025 Prologue has increased by 12 miles (19 kilometres) while and output ratings of single-motor two-wheel-drive models increase to 220 horsepower (up eight) and 243 lb-ft of torque (an increase of seven).

Honda will reportedly manufacture the next-generation Civic in Indiana. That’s a change of plans for the company, which had been planning to manufacture the vehicle in Mexico. The move comes following Donald Trump’s levying of 25% tariffs on goods from Mexico and Canada.
