In 20,000 square feet, the Honda brand is taking center stage once again! The automaker’s unofficial museum — the American Honda Collection Hall — is now officially open, featuring more than 20-years of all things Honda.

With a history that dates back to the 1940s, Honda Motor has beginnings as interesting as its path to its current place at the top.

Although the sixth generation Civic Type R was presented in 2022, the vehicle’s history — specifically the Type R moniker — has more than 25 years under its belt.

The Honda Civic and the term “icon” are synonymous, with this reliable sedan carrying forth a legacy and becoming, throughout five generations, a household name. With a reputation that proceeds itself, including one rooted in affordability and dependability, the Honda Civic is moving deftly toward its 11th generation.
