History of Honda
Honda was founded in 1948 by Soichiro Honda and Takeo Fujisawa in Japan. Initially, the company focused on manufacturing small motorcycles, with the Honda Cub becoming a global success. By the 1960s, Honda had become the world's largest motorcycle manufacturer. The company then expanded into automobiles, introducing the Honda Civic in 1972, which gained popularity for its fuel efficiency and reliability.
In the following decades, Honda grew into a global automotive leader, pioneering innovations in fuel efficiency, hybrid technology, and robotics. The company introduced the Accord, which became a best-selling car in the U.S., and later developed the Honda NSX sports car. Honda also played a significant role in motorsports, particularly in Formula 1. Today, Honda continues to be a major force in the automotive and motorcycle industries, focusing on sustainable mobility and electric vehicle technology.
