When people think of the world’s most produced motor vehicle, they often imagine the Ford Model T or the Volkswagen Beetle. However, that title actually belongs to a modest motorcycle: the Honda Super Cub. Introduced in 1958, this lightweight, step-through motorbike was designed to be easy to ride, remarkably durable, and affordable for working-class commuters.

By 2017, Honda had manufactured over 100 million Super Cubs, making it the most produced motor vehicle in history. Its famous 1960s ad campaign, “You meet the nicest people on a Honda,” transformed public perception of motorcycling from rebellious outlaw culture to friendly everyday mobility.
