Checkpoint 1 – 1973
Engine starts in Parañaque. First local Honda motorcycles roll out. Streets will never be the same.

Checkpoint 2 – 1983
Ten years in. Honda becomes the go-to name for riders who want a bike that just… works.

Checkpoint 3 – 1993
Two decades of trust. By now, it’s hard to walk a Manila street without spotting a Honda.

Checkpoint 4 – 2005
One million units. That’s one million rides to school, to work, to the beach, and everywhere in between.

Checkpoint 5 – 2006–2008
The move to Batangas. Production doubles up. Two million units fly out the gates.

Checkpoint 6 – 2011–2019
Three million. Four million. Five million. Six million. The numbers keep climbing like a tachometer needle.

Checkpoint 7 – 2022–2024
Seven million in 2022. Eight million by April 2024. Ten million total sales a month later. The throttle is wide open.

Checkpoint 8 – August 2025
The 9-millionth bike arrives: the XRM125 DS. Born for rough trails and smooth highways, and loved since 2007. Also? July just set a record — 97,600 units in one month.

What’s Around the Bend

• Honda’s chasing 1 million units in sales and production this year.
• The Philippine motorcycle market just grew 10% in early 2025.
• Riders can expect more models, more promos, and the same bulletproof reliability.

Final Lap
Nine million bikes later, Honda isn’t just making motorcycles. It’s making everyday life faster, easier, and a lot more fun.
