Honda in America: Built with Purpose

Honda got its U.S. start in California in 1959, and it's been moving America forward ever since. Today, Honda employs over 30,000 people in the U.S., operates 12 manufacturing plants and 21 R&D facilities, and has invested more than $25.7 billion in American operations. That’s more than just business. It’s a commitment to quality, innovation, and jobs right here at home.

At Garden State Honda in Clifton, we’re proud to represent a brand that builds where it sells and supports the people who make it all happen.

  • Honda CR-V & CR-V Hybrid
  • Honda Accord & Accord Hybrid
  • Honda Civic Hatchback & Civic Hatchback Hybrid
