  • Honda Latino group teaches kids about engineering 
  • “When the kids see a professional from their own [Latino] community, it opens their eyes,” says Josue Vicente, executive director of the OHCO. “They say, ‘I want to be someone like that.'
  • offers after-school education programs for Hispanic/Latino children.
  • “Many of them are from immigrant families and have limited exposure to civic, community, and business opportunities outside their own communities,” Vicente says.
  • The students in grades 3-5 built a bridge out of spaghetti and marshmallows to test which one could hold the most weight. Winners received TLX die-cast models.
  • Bertran-Larrea, a closures design engineer, says she was inspired to become an engineer by programs she participated in as a student and the people and volunteers who sponsored them. “It’s really important to give back, because that really made an impact.”
  • Honda of America is pleased to announce the availability of scholarships in the amount $2,500 each for students pursuing studies in manufacturing engineering/manufacturing technology or a closely related engineering discipline.
  • Honda of America Mfg. Inc. volunteers helped kids build edible cars (over 450 students participate).

  • Honda designs all of its vehicles with safety in mind, not only the safety of Honda vehicle occupants, but safety for the occupants of other vehicles and all road users, including pedestrians.Car quality and safety.

    • ACE™ stands for Advanced Compatibility Engineering™, and it’s a Honda-exclusive body design that uses a network of front frame structures to absorb and deflect the energy from a frontal collision. This helps reduce the force transferred to the cabin and more evenly disperse the forces transferred to other vehicles involved. That means it’s not just Honda drivers that are safer in the event of a collision—it’s everybody.

    • There are two main types of safety systems: active and passive. “Active safety” technologies, like those in the Honda Sensing™ suite of safety and driver assistive technologies, are working while you’re driving. This includes the automatic emergency braking (a component of CMBS) and other technologies that help mitigate the potential for a collision or its severity. Other technologies, such as rearview cameras, can augment your view of the road.
    • By 2020, crash, collisions, or accidents are reduced by half, and by 2040, making them a thing in the past.

    Honda has developed a set of best practices that help dealers measurably reduce their energy and water use. Honda Environmental Leadership Program helps our dealers plan to reduce CO2 emissions to zero.

    Auto dealerships have a number of energy needs, from bright lights in their showrooms and parking lots to auto service bays and car washes. That doesn’t mean they can’t also take a leadership role in being environmentally responsible businesses.
