Leadership History
4 leaders · Full leadership timeline
Honda grew from postwar Japanese engine manufacturing into a global mobility company by pairing Soichiro Honda's engineering drive with Takeo Fujisawa's business discipline. Its current story is a reset: high sales scale, a temporary loss year, and a push to fund the next generation of mobility without losing the strengths of motorcycles and efficient combustion or hybrid vehicles.
Honda makes money by manufacturing and selling motorcycles, automobiles, power products, aircraft-related products, parts, and services, and by financing vehicle purchases and leases. Motorcycles provide high-margin global scale, automobiles provide the largest sales base, and financial services support dealer and consumer demand.
