Honda Motor Co. ( HMC ) plans to terminate 800 jobs at its South Marston plant near Swindon in southwest England due to sagging demand for its vehicles in Europe. The job cut would take place in the second quarter of the year. The plant, which manufactures Civic, Jazz and CR-V models, has an annual production capacity of 250,000 cars. The company employs 3,500 people at the plant and produced 150,000 vehicles in 2012. Many global automakers, including Ford Motor Co. ( F ) and General Motors Company ( GM ), and many European automakers such as PSA Peugeot ( PEUGY ) and Fiat SpA ( FIATY ) are resorting to job cuts and plant closures, as it became no longer feasible for them to undertake full-fledged operations in the continent. Honda is no exception. Demand for cars continues to slump in Europe's major markets, including France and Germany.
