ALG Awards Three Honda Vehicles
ALG recently presented Residual Value Awards to three Honda models making this the third year in a row that multiple Honda models have been recognized in these annual awards. ALG uses a variety of vehicle factors such as industry trends, vehicle quality, pricing and marketing strategies, historical vehicle performance and production levels relative to demand to determine which vehicles will retain the highest possible retail value over three years.
“Honda comes to these segments with great products and great sales strategies,” said Larry Dominique, President of ALG. “With strong transaction prices bolstered by low incentives and very few fleet sales, Honda has continued to achieve top residuals with each of these vehicles.”
This latest three awards now make the total presented to Honda models by ALG in the lat 14 year 35. Additionally, the Honda brand has been awarded the Overall Brand Award 8 times.

Honda Reveals All-New HR-V Model
Earlier this week Honda unveiled the brand-new 2016 Honda HR-V. This crossover is a completely new model and was shown at the Los Angeles International Auto Show. In a press release dated November 19th, 2014 the HR-V is said to “blend the styling of a coupe, the toughness, space and utility of a SUV and the quality of a Honda in one sporty, personal and versatile multi-dimensional vehicle.” While it is a 2016 model, Honda will launch the vehicle in early 2015 to take advantage of the rapidly-growing crossover market. It has dynamic exterior styling, interior spaciousness and has class-leading fuel economy.
“The new HR-V crossover is a true segment-busting vehicle, unlike anything else on the market today,” said Jeff Conrad, senior vice president American Honda Motor Co., Inc. and general manager of the Honda Division. “It’s got all the essential elements of our Honda DNA, our packaging innovation, fuel-efficient powertrain technology, leading safety technology and, above all, Honda quality, to make this an incredibly compelling, sporty and value-packed new member of the Honda family.”
More information will be released in the coming months and keep a look out on this site for a Research & Review Page detailing all the specs and features that we know so far. This is a very exciting time for Honda and its customers are sure to be satisfied!

Edmunds.com evaluates approximately 200 cars and puts each car through the same tests and measures them against the same standards. Any vehicle that earns an “A” rating is awarded the Top Rated Award.
“We’re thrilled to have two more of our core models recognized by Edmunds.com as we continue our progress toward a record sales year for the Honda brand,” said Jeff Conrad, senior vice president and general manager of the Honda Division. “The Civic and the Fit often represent new buyers’ introductions into the Honda brand, and this recognition from a trusted resource offers reassurance that they’re making the right choice with a Honda.”
