The insert will appear until Easter in key motoring publications, including What Car, BBC Top Gear, Evo and the Sunday Times driving section.
Like the ad campaign, the insert highlights Honda's record of technical innovation. It uses a folding tailgate format to steadily reveal a series of inventions, with the same 'More forwards please' strapline.
Honda's Asimo robot, created 20 years ago and featured in current TV ads, begins the historical chart.
The piece also features Honda's "vision" for future mobility, describing the FCX car powered by a chemical reaction with water as its sole emission, a jet plane engine that sits above the wings to increase speed and space, a motorcycle air-bag system and a fuel efficient diesel engine.
The insert doubles up as a data collection tool, leading consumers to a website that hosts a questionnaire, with the chance to win a new Civic the incentive to complete it.
The What Car, Auto Express, Telegraph and Independent websites will host banners featuring footage of Asimo through the ages, that also feed through to the website.
Lee Anne Crossley, prospect relationship executive at Honda, said: "The PRM programme is a key part of our communications strategy which is designed to attract new customers by explaining some of the fantastic advances that Honda has created over the last 20 years."
