Same similar reason why the Canadians get a Washer Fluid low monitor, and not a TPMS, while the USA gets a TPMS and not the water fluid low monitor. Honda made that decision.I wonder why the Canadian Si got a spare and the US didn’t. Same deal as the LED headlights? Price point?
A closer reason may be the reason why Canada gets a Garmin GPS that does not rely on a Cellular connections, while most of the American models do not.
There are vast areas of Canada without Cellular connectivity, and far away from any road assistance. Because of this, a non-cellular GPS is required, and because of the time it may take to get something like Honda Assist to hep you. If that stupid Foam system fails, and it will on a sidewall blowout, you need a reliable spare you can fit and get moving again, before you freeze to death.
Just my Guess here -- but good luck getting an meaningful official answer from Honda America, or Honda Canada !!
