And, a recent tour of one of the Asian powerhouse’s vehicle plants has proved this beyond a shadow of a doubt, at least to Honda President and CEO Toshihiro Mibe.
“We have no chance against this,” Mibe said (9) upon a visit to a Shanghai parts factory, commenting on its seamless automation across all levels of production.
