The company's operations are divided into four main business segments: Motorcycle, Automobile, Financial Services, and Life Creation and Other Businesses. Its Motorcycle segment produces a variety of two-wheeled vehicles, ranging from sporty models and utility-oriented business and commuter bikes to specialized off-road vehicles like all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) and side-by-sides. The Automobile segment provides a selection of passenger cars, light-duty trucks, and compact mini-vehicles.

In addition to its core product lines, Honda supplies spare parts and delivers comprehensive after-sale services. These are provided through a network comprising direct retail dealers, independent distributors, and licensed partners.
