Honda and Continental Collaborate to Achieve Innovation Partnership Award

The Automotive News 2016 PACE (Premier Automotive Suppliers’ Contribution to Excellence) Awards Ceremony occurred last week in Detroit. After their collaboration on the development of the Bidirectional Long Range Communication System, two companies, Honda R&D Americas Inc. and Continental, an international automotive supplier, were awarded the Innovative Partnership Award. The Bidirectional Long Range Communication System is an innovative system that lets a key fob perform several helpful features from up to a third of a mile away, including the ability to activate climate controls, lock/unlock the vehicle, and even start the engine."Building a successful partnership like the one forged with Continental does not happen overnight," said Frank Paluch, President of Honda R&D Americas, Inc. "It takes time, trust, teamwork and a singular goal – to deliver a product that provides great value to our customers. It is an honor to be recognized by the PACE award committee for this innovative collaboration.""Honda and Continental Honored with 2016 Automotive News PACE Innovation Partnership Award."
