Honda attributed logistics and COVID-19 outbreaks as the cause of parts delivery delays. A number of vehicles, including the Vezel sport utility vehicle, Stepwgn minivan, and Civic compact car, will experience the output cut.
After a previous drop, Honda's production at those two factories returned to normal in June, but the firm indicated previously that it started making changes once more the following month.
