About the Company

In 1948, Soichiro Honda established Honda Motor Co., Ltd. in Hamamatsu, Japan. The company first produced motorcycles before branching out into the automotive industry in 1963. In 1995, Honda and Usha International formed Honda Siel Cars India Limited as a joint venture to enter the Indian market. In 2012, Honda became the sole owner of Usha after purchasing its share. Honda currently sells five models in India: one electric sedan, three sedans, and a compact SUV.

The company has two manufacturing factories in India; the first opened in 1997 at Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh, and the second in 2008 at Tapukara, Rajasthan. It also has plants in Ahmedabad (Vithalapur) and Bengaluru (Narsapura). In FY 2024-25, Honda shipped 60,226 units to countries, including Japan, which was its largest export volume to date.
