Honda Cars History & Background
Honda Cars

Honda Motor Co Ltd. is a Japanese manufacturing company that manufactures engines, cars, and motorcycles along with a whole host of other products. Honda is currently the largest engine manufacturer in the world.

Soichiro Honda was a mechanic who developed his own design for piston rings. He eventually perfected the design and his newly formed company contracted with Toyota to supply piston rings. The new company was destroyed during the Second World War.

Honda used what few resources he had left to create a new company that focused on fitting engines to bicycles in order to create some mode of transportation in Japan after the war had ended.

In 1948 the Honda Motor Co. was founded and Soichiro began to produce scooters and motorcycles. The company experienced great successes and continued to produce many popular scooters and motorcycles during the 1950s.

The American Honda Co. was founded in 1958 and began a long stretch in American automobile history. Honda is the largest motorcycle producer in the world and has been for some time.

Honda began developing prototypes for cars during the 1960s. The first prototype was a small pick-up, and months later Japan introduced a a two-door roadster, the S500. Honda was one of the only small car manufacturers to succeed independently without being forced to merge with larger Japanese manufacturers.

Honda has been manufacturing cars successfully in the United States since 1972 with the introduction of the Honda Civic. Honda has manufacturing plants scattered throughout the United States with future plants in the planning stages.

In 1986 Honda was the first manufacturer to create a separate line of luxury vehicles, known as Acura. The company was also the first to introduce a passenger vehicle with four-wheel steering; this was the 1987 Honda Prelude, and the Honda Legend received an SRS airbag this same year.
