Page 15 of Honda 07 Ridgeline by Honda Motors

Honda has a well-deserved reputation for high-tech innovation, and we also build vehicles that are ready for some serious action. Just take a look at our product line over the past 50 years. Our ATVs and off-road motorcycles have proven their grit time and time again in venues like the SCORE Baja 1000 desert race and now the Ridgeline has begun a whole new competitive chapter. And you can be sure we put that knowledge to good use in our vehicles for the road. 28,000 U.S. ASSOCIATES Hondas assembled cars here since 1982. Nearly 4 of 5 Honda vehicles sold in the U.S. today are assembled here in North America with the help of 530 U.S. supplier companies. And many models are designed and engineered here, too. SAFETY FOR EVERYONE Through a comprehensive and evolving approach to vehicle safety, Honda seeks to provide a high level of occupant and pedestrian protection in all of our cars and trucks, regardless of size or price, as well as increased crash compatibility with other vehicles. BRED TOUGH Honda roots run deep. Hondas legacy of Earth-friendlier innovation is unmatched in the vehicle industry. We have long acted on our spirited commitment to environmentally responsible technology. The results include world-changing advances in fuel economy, low emissions and leading-edge hybrids. And as always, our attention is focused on the future. In fact, a Southern California family is already driving a limited-production Honda FCX hydrogen fuel-cell car in the Los Angeles area on a daily basis. Its all part of Hondas Environmentology.
