                    [Title] => Honda confident of hitting target
                    [Summary] => Honda Cars Philippines Inc. (HCPI) will try its best to hold on to the No. 2 spot in overall automotive sales this year, according to Takashi Sekiguchi, president and general manager of HCPI.


During last Friday’s presentation of Honda’s 2006 Jazz model, Sekiguchi expressed confidence that HCPI would likely hit its 20 percent sales growth target this year, selling 12,000 units.

Last year, HCPI sold a total of 9,797 units.

As of end-May this year, Sekiguchi reported, HCPI has already sold 5,016 units, just 1,000 units short of its half year target.

The 8th generation Honda Civic, you see, is now in showrooms around the Philippines.

According to Honda Philippines’ current president and general manager Takashi Sekiguchi, Honda intends to focus on rebuilding and strengthening its existing car models, specifically the Civic and CRV.

Likewise, Honda will also develop the still unappreciated five-door hatchback model.

Sekiguchi noted that the Philippine market equates value with size and thus tends to favor the much larger American vehicles which, however, are not fuel efficient.
