Company

About American Honda Motor Co., Inc. A dream can never be too big. It starts out as an idea on a napkin, a daydream on the way to work, or a wish as you're working around the house. Before you know it, you're watching it come to life on a computer screen. Then, in front of a customer focus group. And finally, you watch it come off the mass production line. Honda R&D is about being inspired, and carrying your idea through development, design, and production. It's about using the IRL racing circuit as your own personal testing ground. It's about making the air cleaner for you and future generations and making more efficient use of energy. It's about tackling any terrain with your four-wheeler. Whatever your inspiration is, find a way to make your dream come to life. At Honda R&D Americas, we make dreams become reality.
