2026 Olympics Spondor Honda Puts Its Wind Tunnel to Work for Team USA's Olympic Push

Honda is activating its new partnership as the Official Automotive Partner of Team USA with a campaign that goes beyond commercials, putting its engineers and HALO wind tunnel to work refining sleds for the USA Bobsled/Skeleton team ahead of the Milano Cortina 2026 Games.

• Two sides of the same coin: The partnership is part of Honda's new "This is The Power of Dreams" campaign, which will debut with two ad spots during the Opening Ceremony. The creative casts the company's engineers and its 10 sponsored athletes as parallel forces, both driven by precision and determination.

• An exclusive playbook: The campaign uses a "modular" strategy that allows Honda to mix-and-match creative assets for different platforms. This approach also lets the automaker inject same-day footage of its athletes competing in Italy directly into primetime TV spots—a perk available only to official Olympic sponsors.

• More than a logo slap: By linking its marketing campaign to tangible engineering support, Honda is creating a more authentic sponsorship narrative that goes beyond simple brand exposure on a bobsled.

Honda's investment in winter sports has deep roots, including a nearly two-decade partnership with USA Hockey. Looking ahead to the LA28 Games, a key motivator for the sponsorship was securing the first-ever Olympic naming rights for its own Honda Center arena.
