Auto Evolution: The Making of a Honda Icon

We’re known for delivering top-notch service to our customers, and we truly value the legacy of every Honda vehicle that comes through our doors. 

One of the World’s Great Automobile Companies

Honda started life in 1948 with the help of Takeo Fujisawa. He was a skilled automotive innovator who developed a plan to put Japan back on wheels after World War II. Honda started out building motorcycles but quickly transitioned to creating a line of Honda cars, starting with the Honda Civic, in 1963. 

As the second-largest automobile producer in Japan, Honda created its 10-millionth vehicle in 2001. The Honda FCX Clarity fuel cell automobile in 2009 likewise made some major headlines as one of the most comfortable sedans on the market. 

Production has only increased since then. By 2014, Honda had produced a whopping 20 million automobiles and SUVs (Sport Utility Vehicles) for the American market. It has high-efficiency production facilities in Ohio and has rapidly become known for its eco-friendly automotive technology and industry-leading environmental practices.
