With the concern about the accuracy of autonomous vehicles, Honda is going above and beyond to simulate real life situations while testing out their vehicles. However, testing these cars does come with its own set of challenges. It’s important for the vehicles to be tested on the roads they’ll be driving, however at this stage, it puts other cars and vehicles at risk. Thankfully, the team at Honda has found the perfect solution to this: the GoMentum Station. This station is a five-acre town that used to house military personnel and their family as a Naval base. It has since been abandoned, but offers 20 different road types, with intersections, buildings, and imperfect roads - just like the real world! - making it the perfect testing ground for Honda’s autonomous vehicles. We are so excited to see what the future of autonomous vehicles brings! While we wait, make sure to check out the autonomous-like advanced driver-assistance safety technologies on our New Honda Vehicles! Rosenholtz, Jared.

As a supporter of STEM Education, Honda has invested time and resources over the years into helping young men and women get interested in the subjects of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math. The “Power of Dreams” company knows that the young people studying these subjects now may be the future innovators of the automotive industry tomorrow. Recently, it has come to Honda’s attention that there is an imbalance of men and women in STEM fields, so they have increased their efforts in getting young girls interested in STEM subjects. Recently, Honda visited GirlPower!, a conference that invites young female students in to explore and learn about science, technology, engineering, and math and show them how bright their future could be if they pursued these subjects. Honda had the opportunity to bring its latest innovation, the UNICUB, and it was a big hit with many of the girls there. Watch the video above to see more!

The Honda Civic has always been an iconic vehicle in the United States, known for its practicality and efficiency, but the 10th-generation is offering much more and turning even more heads. After it received the nomination for the prestigious 2016 North American Car of the Year, Honda gave Car Buzz a brand new 2016 four-door Honda Civic Touring so they could test out this spectacular vehicle for themselves. It didn’t take long for Car Buzz to recognize everything the all-new Civic had to offer. They were pleasantly surprised with the powerful yet smooth delivery the 174 horsepower 1.5 LIter Turbo Four-Cylinder Engine offered. However, they were even more impressed with the LED headlights and taillights, and the lower, wider, and longer stances that gave the redesigned Civic and athletic exterior. Inside the cabin, they noted it was spacious and enjoy the well-appointed features like Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and heated front and rear seats. Car Buzz expected the Civic to be safe, but admitted it was no question why the Civic was an IIHS Top Safety Pick+ with the Honda Sensing Package which includes the Lane Keeping Assist System,Adaptive Cruise Control, Collision Mitigation Braking System, Forward Collision Warning, Lane Departure Warning System, and Road Departure Mitigation. “Honda has taken the Civic back to its roots, creating a car that's fun to drive and easy on the eyes. It's also ridiculously safe, fuel-efficient, practical to a fault and pretty damn cheap with an entry level model (the LX six-speed manual) coming in at $18,640. If all that isn't worthy of an award then what the hell is?” If you’re interested in experiencing the 2016 Honda Civic for yourself, schedule your test drive at D’ELLA Honda of Glens Falls today!
