Honda National Technician Contest – 4-Wheel Winner: Trent Mattern, Open Road Honda
The second Honda National Technician Contest held last month determining the country’s top Honda Powersports dealership technicians. Representing Minnesota dealership Davis Motorsports of Delano, Jacob Stifter won the Two-Wheel division, while Trent Mattern (of Mandan, North Dakota’s Open Road Honda) topped the Four-Wheel category. Held at the Honda Training Center in Alpharetta, Georgia, the annual event is organized to promote Honda’s Powersports technical training programs, and ultimately to enhance customer satisfaction.
The third annual Honda National Technician Contest is planned for early 2027. Following that event, National Champions from the first three years will compete for the chance to travel to Japan for the Honda Global Technician Contest in fall of 2027.
