When did Honda motorcycles first come to India?

Honda first came to India in 1984 as a joint venture with Hero Cycle, which we know as Hero Honda. The joint venture first started selling 4-stroke motorcycles like the CD100 and Street. The partnership with Hero ended in 2010, with the Munjal family (owners of the Hero Group) buying out Honda’s stake from the joint Hero Honda venture. Today, Honda sells their models under Honda Motorcycles and Scooters India Limited (HMSI). HMSI’s first product for India was the Activa scooter in 2001 which became a massive hit and remains the country’s best selling scooter over two decades later. Honda’s first motorcycle to be launched in India was the Unicorn 150, which came in 2004, and was the first commuter motorcycle in India to come with monoshock rear suspension.

Where are Honda motorcycles and scooters made?

Honda currently has 4 production facilities in India located at Manesar (Haryana), Tapukara (Rajasthan), Narsapura (Karnataka) and Vitthalapur (Gujarat).

Are Honda and Hyundai the same?

Honda and Hyundai are two completely different automotive manufacturers with different origins. Honda is a Japanese manufacturer that deals with both two-wheelers and cars. It was founded after World War 2 by Soichiro Honda. 

The company first started by manufacturing motorized bicycles, utilizing surplus engines. Within a few years they started making their own motorcycles, with the first one Dream D-Type produced in 1949. Honda Motor Company Limited was later formed in 1950.

Hyundai, on the other hand, traces its origins back to South Korea. The company was founded by Chung Ju-yung in 1967 and started off as a construction business and later became a car manufacturer. Currently, Hyundai doesn't manufacture any motorcycles or scooters, and is strictly focused on making cars.
