Honda's first-quarter profit more than doubled year-over-year, reaching 456.9 billion yen ($2.9 billion), driven by strong motorcycle sales and favorable exchange rates. The Japanese automaker is recovering from a previous year's loss, partly attributed to costly and underperforming electric vehicle initiatives. While car sales saw growth in Japan and the U.S., they struggled in China, prompting efforts to tailor models for the Chinese market. Honda has raised its profit forecast for the fiscal year, anticipating a return to profitability. AI
