Commenting on the new milestone of 900th authorised dealership, Yadvinder Singh Guleria, senior vice president, sales & marketing, HMSI, said, "We have grown exponentially in the last 15 years of existence in India, in terms of sales, product portfolio, production capacity and network. The penetration in smaller towns is a critical part of our India strategy. Along with rapid capacity expansion, introduction of new products across categories and strengthening our network in the metro and urban locations, we are now focusing on increasing our foothold in the semi-urban and rural areas. Honda is now extending its reach to the last mile with 80% of the touch points added this financial year being only in the semi-urban and rural locations. We are confident that our growing network will cater to the increasing demand for Honda 2Wheelers and realise higher customer satisfaction in terms of services provided by Honda network."

Honda is the leading automatic scooter manufacturer in India and the second largest company in the two-wheeler segment. Now, the company aims to further increase its network by adding 500 more touch points, totalling the number to 5,300 before this financial year end. Apart from that, Honda is also focusing on increasing its production capacity as well as bringing new products under various categories. Besides the appreciable quality of the products, the skilled staff at the dealerships ensures one of the best two-wheeler owning experiences to all Honda customers.
