The 1982 Honda Accord opened the second generation, which Honda launched in September 1981 (the 22nd) in Japan, Europe and North America. Production of the Accord began at Honda's Marysville Auto Plant in Ohio in 1982, which made it the first car from a Japanese maker to be built in the United States. Japan also saw a sister model, the Honda Vigor, introduced alongside it, and from November 1982 Honda offered a true four speed automatic with the 1.8 liter engine in place of the three speed semi automatic Hondamatic. An optional Electro Gyrocator navigation system had been offered on the 1981 Accord.
