“It’s no secret we have the best Honda and Acura product lineups in our history, and when we have the inventory to meet strong customer demand, our sales will continue to rebound,” said Mamadou Diallo, vice president of Auto Sales for American Honda Motor Co., Inc. “Like the rest of the industry, we aren’t out of the woods yet with supply issues, but we begin 2023 with roughly double the on-hand inventory of 2022 and the expectation that this will mean a healthy sales increase this year.”
