Two die in Mission Viejo crash; Honda posts strong Q1 profit, signaling a turn in its EV strategy. The Accord is Honda’s long-running, best-selling four-door sedan, sold worldwide since 1976 and known for reliability.
Honda has reported a healthy first-quarter profit and higher sales, driven by strong motorcycle demand in Brazil and India and improved performance in the U.S. and Japan. The company has raised its full-year profit forecast, even as it faces uncertainty from EV costs and external factors such as currency moves and a Kumamoto earthquake.
A crash on Los Alisos Boulevard in Mission Viejo has claimed one life and left another person in critical condition. Police say a racing scenario involving two Nissan Infiniti drivers led to the fatal collision. A GoFundMe has been launched to cover funeral costs, while a memorial has formed at the crash site.
