About Honda 145
The Honda 1300 is an automobile which was produced by Japanese manufacturer Honda from 1969 to 1972. The largest car manufactured by the company to that point, the front-wheel-drive 1300 was released as a sedan or a coupé, and was intended to compete primarily against other Japanese cars such as the Toyota Corona, Mazda Capella, Mitsubishi Galant, and Nissan Bluebird. An ambitious project spearheaded by Soichiro Honda, it was plagued by engineering delays and sold at a high price compared to its competition. However, lessons learned from it led to the successful debut of the Life kei car in 1971 and Civic subcompact car in 1972, and to the 1300/145's successors, the Accord and Prelude, in 1976 and 1978.
