Dear customers,

In recent months, due to natural disasters in Japan and Thailand, Honda has experienced shortages of supply across several models.

Globally, Honda has been working tirelessly to resume production to fulfil customer orders and meet demand.

Thanks to these outstanding efforts, we’re delighted to announce that fresh stock has already started arriving, and will continue to improve in the coming months.

The best place to find out about availability of your model of choice is your local Honda dealer.

We’ve also just launched an all-new Civic sedan this March; and you might have heard, our new sporty Hybrid, the CR-Z, has been named 2011 Wheels Car of the Year.

One judge said: "A hybrid that's fun to drive... if this is the future, I'm there." We couldn't agree more!

We’re well on track for a big 2012, and all that remains is for you to join us! So why not order a brochure, or sign up to our eNewsletter; and we’ll be in touch with more updates soon.

Best Regards,


Stephen Collins
Director
Honda Australia
