Honda recalls nearly 100k vehicles over airbag sensor fault

Honda is recalling about 100,000 Honda and Acura vehicles due to a front passenger seat weight sensor defect—humidity can crack a capacitor on the sensor’s circuit board, potentially causing unintended airbag deployment even for infant seats or small occupants. Affected models span a wide range of Honda and Acura cars and SUVs, including Civics, Accords (and hybrids), CR-Vs, MDX, RDX, Odyssey and more from 2016–2026. Owners will receive mail notices and be asked to visit a dealer for a sensor replacement; Honda reports no related injuries in the U.S. through Oct. 2025.

Honda Debuts 2027 CRF450R Family: All-New Engine, Lighter Frame, and Rich Electronics

Honda has unveiled the all-new 2027 CRF450R lineup with a completely redesigned engine and chassis that shed about 9–10 pounds and use roughly 70% of a new main frame, plus a larger 1.9-gallon titanium fuel tank. The bike delivers stronger power and torque across the rev range, improved stability, and simplified maintenance, aided by a redesigned Unicam valvetrain, updated transmission, lighter starter and electronics including ride modes, HSTC, and launch control. The lineup includes the standard CRF450R, the race-focused HRC Works Edition, and the CRF450RX off-road model, all featuring new bodywork, sustainable materials, and advanced electronics. A Works Edition adds high-end parts like a Yoshimura exhaust and premium suspension.

Honda’s 70-year-loss won’t derail its Formula 1 push, but signals strategic shifts

Honda’s 70-year-loss won’t derail its Formula 1 push, but signals strategic shifts

Honda posted a 423 billion yen ($2.68bn) annual loss—the worst since its 1957 listing—driven by EV investments, but the company says the figures won’t affect Honda Racing Corporation or its F1 program. Honda is pausing an $11bn Canada EV/battery venture and softening earlier EV-share targets while F1 engine talks consider a future with a more prominent internal-combustion element, including a potential V8 powered by sustainable fuels by around 2031.

Honda’s EV gamble pins a rare loss as automakers recalibrate

Honda’s EV gamble pins a rare loss as automakers recalibrate

Honda posted its first annual loss since 1955, reporting a 403.3 billion yen ($2.6B) net loss for the year ending March after a 1.6 trillion yen ($10B) write-down on its EV investments. The hit came as US policy shifts—namely the end of the $7,500 EV tax credit and looser emissions rules—dented EV demand, pushing Honda and peers to pivot back toward profitable gasoline trucks/SUVs while forecasting further EV-related write-downs. GM also faced EV charges but remained profitable; Ford and Stellantis posted losses amid retrenchment in electrification. The industry remains committed to EVs, but faces tougher rules in Europe/Asia and rising competition from Chinese EV makers.

Honda and Acura unveil next-gen hybrids aimed at US market

Honda and Acura teased next-generation hybrid prototypes with a new platform, promising over 10% better fuel efficiency. The Honda sedan and Acura SUV are set to go on sale within two years, primarily in the US as part of a broader North American push. Honda aims for 15 hybrid models by 2030 and expects cost reductions with a new powertrain, funded by about 4.4 trillion yen (~$28B) for hybrids/gas models, plus roughly 0.8 trillion yen (~$5B) for future EVs; meanwhile, several EVs were canceled and Honda will continue EVs in Japan/Asia while reassessing the US strategy.
