For the second time, a Honda model has been presented with the North American Car of the Year Award. The first honor came ten years ago when the Ridgeline won in 2006, and now the 2016 Honda Civic is the recipient of this prestigious award. The recipient of this award is decided each year by a group of 53 international automotive journalists from the United States and Canada. The group chooses the winner bases on a variety of factors such as driver satisfaction, innovation, value, design, handling, and safety performance.
“The all-new Civic was developed and is built in North America, making this North American Car of the Year win even sweeter,” said Jeff Conrad, Honda Division senior vice president and general manager. “Civic is a cornerstone of the Honda lineup, and we’re delighted that the automotive press has recognized the new levels of styling, performance, advanced technology, safety and value that characterize the new Civic.”
The 2016 Honda Civic has been completely redesigned with a new look on both the outside and the inside. This model is also the first compact car in the world to be equipped with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™. Additional technologies found in this model include Honda Sensing™ safety and driver-assistive technologies and Honda turbo engine technology.
