Thank You, Huntersville: A Look Back at Our Grand Opening Celebration

October 2nd, 2026 by

Grand Opening

What a weekend it was. Our team has been looking forward to this moment for a long time. Finally, opening the doors of our brand-new home to the Huntersville community felt like the perfect way to celebrate. Guests spent the weekend exploring the new Honda of Huntersville building, getting a feel for the space, and browsing our new Hondas and used vehicles up close. Seeing so many familiar faces along with plenty of new ones made the whole celebration feel special. It truly felt like one big neighborhood gathering, brought together to celebrate this new chapter.     

Key Points     

  • Honda of Huntersville celebrated its grand opening with a full weekend of festivities including a prize wheel, food trucks, and live music. 
  • Huntersville Mayor Christy Clark joined the dealership for its ribbon cutting ceremony, and the team donated $1,000 to the Huntersville Police Department. 
  • The new facility offers an expanded showroom and service department. The dealership invites the community to visit or schedule service anytime.   

A Ribbon Cutting to Remember 

The celebration officially kicked off with a ribbon cutting ceremony, and having Mayor Christy Clark there to take part in it made the moment even more special. It was a genuine reminder of how closely our dealership and this town are connected, and we felt truly honored to share that milestone with her and so many others from the community. 

Giving Back to the People Who Protect Us 

As part of the celebration, we were proud to donate $1,000 to the Huntersville Police Department. Supporting the men and women who keep our community safe is something close to our hearts, and it felt like the right way to mark this new chapter while giving back at the same time.  

In the Words of Our General Manager 

General Manager John Rios shared just how meaningful this milestone was for the dealership: 

“We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who came out to celebrate the grand opening of Honda of Huntersville. Having the Town of Huntersville, Mayor, Police and Fire Departments, Lake Norman Chamber of Commerce, and so many members of our local community join us made the ribbon cutting truly special. As part of the Hudson Automotive Group, we’re proud to be here and look forward to serving the Huntersville and Lake Norman community for many years to come.” 

What This Means Going Forward 

Our new facility was built with our customers in mind, and we cannot wait for you to experience everything it has to offer. If your Honda is due for a checkup, our expanded service department makes it easier than ever to schedule service at a time that works for you. Be sure to also check out our current service specials, which can help you save on the maintenance your vehicle needs. 

Our grand opening celebration may be behind us, but our commitment to this community is just getting started. Whether you have questions about our new building or want to schedule a visit, please contact us anytime. Thank you again, Huntersville, for making our grand opening a weekend we will never forget.
