Looking into a brand before purchasing a car shows that you’re a smart shopper! Typically, Honda Civics are made in Greensburg, Indiana for the American market, but they are sometimes manufactured in Canada, too.
Locate the vehicle identification number (VIN) either in the driver’s door jamb, on the dashboard, or in your registration documents
Inspect the first digit, which lets you know the country of origin of your Civic—a 1,4, or 5 is from the United States, 2 means it’s from Canada
Inspect the 11th digit, which lets you know the assembly plant location of your Civic—E stands for Greensburg, Indiana, while H stands for Ontario, Canada
Arming yourself with manufacturer knowledge before purchasing a vehicle is an excellent practice. Arming your vehicle with quality car insurance is just as important—
