The fact that they went out of their way to provide a disabled person, not only a vehicle but also made it legal to drive as such is actually the most heartwarming thing I've heard from a manufacturer in a good while. All because of 1 letter!!
About fact 17: Honda’s slogan “You meet the nicest people on a Honda.” Came from the idea (at the time) that bikers were bad folk, because at that time Harley-Davidson clubs like Hell’s Angels were really big and often very dangerous, so Honda marketed their bikes for “good folk”. Hence the nicest people slogan was born!
27: you said the Honda CRZ was the first manual hybrid, I hate to be that guy, but this is actually incorrect, Honda themselves made the first gen insight back in the late 90s, that car was also a hybrid and came with a 5 speed manual.
Yup. The CR-Z was the only manual hybrid on sale at it's time, and the only hybrid to have a 6-speed manual, which often gets confused by people into thinking it was the only manual hybrid ever.
Nr 88, the Ballade AMG - My mom worked for Orbit Motors (official Mercedes, Honda and Mitsubishi dealer for South Africa at the time) when the Ballade AMG was launched. I was one of the first people to get a ride in it on launch day. They still pop up on the used market every now and then, priced quite reasonably compared to the 'standard' models.
For what, IMO Honda are cheaters the Megane RS is faster on the Nurb since their version were tuned and had a different gearbox that are not sold In EU or NA. Otherwise Renault can easily put 50 more HP and destroy the Honda lap just saying...
I have one and its amazing. When he said they dont used pumped in engine noise he couldnt be more wrong😂. The exhaust is quieter than my vacuum and the pumped on noise sounds so bad
@@nategrant784 the y2k s2000 was $42k at top trim, it started at $21k, all trims had 240 hp the civic type r sits at 315hp for $45k, also, the s2000 was lighter and rwd
Around a month, finding credible stories is getting harder and harder since i want these videos to become more about the brands tales rather than useless facts
Great video but on #27 the CR-Z is not the first ever manual hybrid vehicle. The first gen insight is. The CR-Z is based off of the Honda Fit platform which came out after the insight
29: You're correct about Honda being the first brand to have a luxury counterpart known as "Acura". Unfortunately, the launch of Acura *WAS NOT FROM THE YEAR 1989!* Acura launched in March 1986 to be precise, because 1989 saw Toyota with Lexus, and Nissan with Infiniti. With all due respect, triple check your research before you put details in your video, thank you very much.
Hi I am from South Africa. I am not sure about the power figures on that AMG Ballade. Yes, in SA we called the CIVIC a Ballade until the time the Civic (2000) came out (170i VTEC and Type-R). After that version of Ballade the Civic was know as the Hatch Back and the sedan of the following model was also known as a Ballade. The 96 - 2000 Ballade was also available with that same 1800cc engine. That AMG was called a 180E. The 160i version had the D16B DOHC engine in it, the 160E had the D16A in it, and the 150 Had a D150B Carburetor capable of doing a couple billion miles (or Kilometer is SA). The 180E had a 1800cc Accord (Japanese version not US) engine in it. It made good power, but excellent torque. It was definitely NOT a failure in SA. The people who owned them LOVED them, and everybody who did not have one, wanted one. It was the most luxurious one of that version of Civic or Ballade as we knew it. It was on sale in SA till April 1996. Fantastic car. Still quite a few of them around on our roads, however ALL of them are severe milers. Just for background, at the time (1989 - 2000) Honda was sold in SA though Daimler-Chrysler whom also owned Chrysler (Chrysler has always been seen as a "pathetic" brand is SA. (Horrible vehicles or maybe it was just the versions we got here in SA like the Neon (and Neon RT) and PT-Cruizer) and Mercedes-Bens, Mitsubishi and Honda. Until today, Honda is know for quality, reliability and longevity.
I own a 1999 Honda City 1.5EXiS. Even with 196k km on the odo, she still revs up like a maniac, redlines like nobody's business! Difficult to tell whether I drive her, or she drives me (crazy)... I'm never gonna let her go!
Awesome facts about Honda makes me feel proud about Honda. Already my family loves Honda cars. My Father purchased Honda City in 2005. From 2005 My father, My brother and me purchased only Honda cars. Am from India. 1st car Honda City - My Dad purchased in 2005 2nd car Honda Civic - My Brother purchased in 2009 3rd car Honda Jazz - I purchased in 2013 - Still working good. 4th Car Honda city - My brother purchased in 2019 5th car Honda Elevate - I purchased in 2024
Great driving. I raced at that track several years ago. You have motivated me to race again. I will visit the track soon to get familiar with the operations again. And get my bmw E39 stripped down and ready
17:16 Fun fact, most of the other cars that are front-mid engine are supercars such as Ferraris or Astons. The "regular" sports cars that are front-mid engine (or technically front-mid engine) are some Chevy Corvettes, the Mazda RX-7, and the Miata
Decades of Honda ive owned Bikes:Raider135,NSR250RR,CBR400RR,CBR600RR,VFR800,CB1000R,CB1100XX,CB1300SF and The new Africa Twin DCT 19/18 Rims Cars:Civic 1.5,City 1.5,CRZ,Accord Euro R,Type-R and Oddyssey
Nice video. Lots of interesting information. However.... #39: The RL / Legend shown in the video was the previous generation which only had 210-225 hp depending on the year. And you got #42 wrong on something. The reason the 80s Prelude got the Date Car nick was because of the placement of the passenger seat reclining lever. It was placed towards the driver side, making it easy for the driver to recline back the passenger seat. Use your imagination for the rest.
Poggers! Checklist: - I work at a Honda Workshop - I drive a Honda - It's a Civic - It's Modified - I have Acne Best video in this series so far no bias whatsoever :) (little thing to Nr.79: Nearly all Hondas since the late 90s/early 00s do that)
Great video! If I recall, Honda created the company by picking up discarded fuel tanks from US bombers, which he used to create the Cub. I always loved that Honda is an engineering company that happens to make cars. I remember at 17 needing to buy my first car. My parents wanted me to buy a new car. I almost got an Integra, but didn't trust the "new" company. lol I later bought a Saturn Vue only because it had a Honda V6 engine. Oh, and I originally bashed the Ridgeline as a wannabe Odessey when I had a Chevy Avalanche. Now, I see many trucks which have copied the Odessey.
26:06, The honda is called the EG9, its a phdm car, its rare to find but its easy to import, it uses a stock steeringwheel, drum brakes ( i think or its the concept that has it,) all tho its a sedan type eg, for the power, the eg8 makes 80-90 and the eg9 makes 150-180.
I never knew Honda was this wholesome and cool, I only knew it for it's sport cars forst but there is so many cool and interesting facts about hondas too.
Happy to see one fact about the Honda Fit, though disappointed they didn't mention the 4th Gen not coming to the US even though its fans CLEARLY want it back.
Proud owner of Honda Accord,2.2 ictdi 2004! Amazing car even now in 2024, leather inside like brand new, steering amazing, gearbox amazing!!! Japanese the best car ever!!! And bikes 🏍️ as well!!!

Good on Honda for not wanting to put out fake engine sounds like some other cars
I'd rather have a funky rear exhaust setup than fake engine noise (especially a V10 noise on a twin turbo V8, BMW)
unlike bmw

Yea, like what Hyundai just did on their ioniq 5 N 🤢
