“Despite industry headwinds, our strategic approach to the market continues to pay dividends for both the Honda and Acura brands,” said Henio Arcangeli, Jr., senior vice president of Automobile Sales at American Honda Motor Co. “Honda strengthened its position as the #1 retail passenger car brand in America in July, even as we grow our SUV sales. Additionally, Acura maintained strong SUV sales and segment-leading performance from our gateway models which are key to bringing young buyers into the brand.”
