I have recently worked with a number of companies that decided to in-source parts of their manufacturing after they identified a risk of relying on Chinese manufacturing that is still plagued by a zero-Covid policy and subsequent shutdowns. That way, they can explore ways to mitigate that risk, such as alternative suppliers and becoming more self-reliant. It is important that companies map out their entire supply chains and identify any exposure to supply and inflation risks. This means reducing exposure to volatile market pricing of commodities, as well as building protective measures into supply chains to deal with shortages and rising logistical costs. To combat this and stay afloat, companies need to improve their resilience in any way that they can. Many industries are still plagued by supply chain issues that emerged during the global shutdowns caused by Covid-19 and have only got worse due to the war in Ukraine.

The City chassis is known for its stiffness and lightness, which translates to an exceptional ride and handling experience.
The vehicle’s platform and engines are similar to the fifth-generation City. The relatively flat roof with roof rails are behind the sporty look. The front grille with chrome embellishments, sharp-looking LED headlights, and muscular wheel arches all add to the car’s bold persona.
The broad and flat bonnet, combined with the big and imposing nose, gives it the classic, boxy SUV appeal. The exterior design is sure to turn some heads. Honda’s new SUV will measure between 4.2 and 4.3 meters and will come with a long wheelbase. Honda has focused on giving the car a look that is in line with its purpose and designation as a mid-size SUV.
