Brief History of Honda®
Honda has been a world leader in the powersports industry for decades. You’ve undoubtedly heard their name many times, although you may be more accustomed to hearing it in reference to their passenger vehicles. However, Honda Power and Honda Marine are important divisions of this Japanese juggernaut, and it’s worth your time to learn more about them and what their vehicles can offer you. Dunfords of Havelock is your Ontario Honda dealer, so we’ve prepared this brief history of Honda for your reading pleasure.
In The Beginning
Honda does have its roots in automobiles. Founder Soichiro Honda started out as a parts manufacturer with his first company, Tokai Seiki, in 1937. Fortune wasn’t on his side with this venture, and World War II waylaid him for several years. However, Honda bounced back and successfully founded his Honda Motor Company in 1949 with partner, Takeo Fujisawa, at his side to manage the business end of things. Honda himself chose to focus on his automobile designs.
The very same year the company was founded, however, powersports were on the table. The D-Type (“Dream-Type”) motorcycle rolled off Honda assembly lines and saw great success in Japan, then the world. For the next few decades, Honda built up its reputation with its bike production until the company became the world’s leading motorcycle manufacturer by the early 1960s.
Honda® Today
Honda diversified their interests heavily over the past several decades, spreading out into off-road vehicles, power equipment, robotics, aircraft and so much more. It’s no wonder that they’ve become a household name all across the world. If you love biking, you’ll want to check out their street and off-road motorcycles, as well as the dual-purpose models that can tackle the trail and the highway with ease. ATVs and UTVs are some of their other popular powersports products, giving you durable and powerful transport for all types of terrain. Whatever it is you need from a powersports vehicle, you’re bound to find it in a Honda.
