Honda mostly gives cash to dealers as dealer incentives instead of passing it to car shoppers as customer rebate. One of the advantage of not giving rebates to customers is that Honda dealers could decide how much money to give out to car shoppers, if any, in order to sell cars. Therefore, the figure is not shown on your sales invoice like most car rebates do. However, since customer rebates are taxable, dealer cash is deducted directly from the selling price for the car, good thing for car shoppers is that no sales tax is applied on dealer incentives, or all money directly passed to car dealers.
Besides the dealer cash given to each car being sold, Honda has volume bonus to car dealer when sales goal is met. Sometimes, it is a tier structure bonus that could have several steps for Honda dealers to keep going up so different Honda dealers could have different amount of incentives. Usually when a Honda car is going to be re-designed, there is usually huge amount of dealer incentives for Honda dealer, which normally results in huge discount for car shoppers.
