Honda jumps into 2013 with pride Japanese manufacturer Honda sure knows how to keep a presence in the automobile market, and it always seems to do so with great pride. Honda’s most important unveiling this year has to be its all-new Accord, a mid-sized front-wheel-drive sedan powered by a very efficient fourcylinder engine or a more powerful V- 6. Soon, an electric-hybrid version of the same car will be available. The Civic is surely Honda’s most popular car. Recently redesigned, that practical model has not lost any of its glory. When the remodeled version was released some critics gave a thumbs down on the trims, and so Honda reacted with still more improvements to the car’s fit and finish.

The latest version thus shows some upgraded trims, inside and out. Note that the Civic is also available in a hybrid configuration. Some of Honda’s other popular models are the very popular CR-V CUV, the sporty CR-Z two-passenger hybrid sports car, the unique looking Crosstour CUV, the city-going Fit sub-compact, and the hybrid compact, the Insight. If you are looking for a light truck, tell your local Honda dealer you’d like to see the popular Odyssey minivan, the tough Pilot SUV, and that unique pick-up truck that doubles as an SUV, the Ridgeline. All three light trucks are V-6-powered.
