Part 4/7:
By implementing Giga casting, Honda aims to cut production costs and efficiency. The very first models to leverage this technology will be the Acura RSX SUV and other variants in the Honda lineup. The strategic investment speaks volumes about Honda's commitment to future electric vehicles (EVs) in a competitive marketplace.
Benefits of Giga Casting Technology
The advantages of Giga casting are multifold. It dramatically reduces the complexity of production as it consolidates what traditionally would require around 70 to 100 parts into a single diecast entity. For Honda, this innovation is expected to decrease the number of components needed by approximately 200 per vehicle.
