Honda Racing Corporation USA (HRC US), formerly Honda Performance Development, Inc. (HPD),[1][2] is a subsidiary of American Honda Motor Co.[3][4][5][6] which was established in 1993 and is based in Santa Clarita, California. It is the technical operations center for Honda's American motorsports programs and is involved in the design and development of race engines and chassis for auto racing series such as the IndyCar Series, American Le Mans Series (ALMS), European Le Mans Series (ELMS), FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) and IMSA SportsCar Championship.[7]

The company's rename was announced in September 2023, as Honda Racing Corporation and then HPD looked to strengthen their capabilities in motorsport through joined collaboration.[8]
