The Honda S360 was a prototype sports car with a 360 cc engine, one of the first automobiles built by a company then known for its motorcycles. Honda unveiled it on 5 June 1962 at Suzuka Circuit during the 11th National Honda Meeting General Assembly, where Soichiro Honda drove it himself with project manager Yoshio Nakamura as passenger, but it never went into production. It used a 356 cc DOHC inline-four engine shared with the Honda T360 kei truck. The S360 impressed Honda's franchised dealers, who wanted a car to sell in the winter months when motorcycle sales declined.
