2016 Honda Civic Sedan

 A New Look for a New Generation

 

 

Exterior:

  With a fierce new shape and distinctive cut lines, the all-new 10th-generation Civic has never looked better. With LED Lights see more road and use less energy with distinctive LED Daytime Running Lights and brake lights. Touring models also feature all-LED headlights and turn indicators. The Civic knows when it’s raining, and can activate its wipers automatically (Touring). The fuel filler neck opens on contact with the pump nozzle, making every refill simple and clean.

 

Engineering:

 Civic EX-T and above models feature a 1.5-liter, turbocharged engine for high cruise efficiency and robust performance.  Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT)- CVT maximizes efficiency whatever the driving condition. The new Civic handles every bit as nice as it looks. Improvements to power steering and rear suspension offer a smoother ride without compromising fun.

 

Interior:

  Choose from three heat levels in the front (EX-T and above). And now, outboard rear passengers can enjoy heated seats, too (Touring). Power seats mean personalized comfort, whether you’re driving or along for the ride (EX-L and above). Need more cargo space? Fold down one or both sides of the rear seatback to accommodate both gear and passengers (EX and above).

New Honda Ridgeline Spied..

The all-new 2016 Honda Ridgeline is coming, and there have been a few new renderings that show what the pickup might look like. Although the renderings aren't from Honda itself, they're heavily based on a sketch that Honda released at the Chicago Auto Show, which previewed the upcoming truck.
   According to the renderings, the Ridgeline will combine traditional Honda SUV styling with a more familiar pickup design than what the outgoing Ridgeline offered. That means a bed separate from the truck's body, a typical pickup feature that wasn't present in the original Ridgeline. The result is that the latest Ridgeline could offer more bed and cab configurations than the outgoing model.
Another difference between the renderings and the outgoing Ridgeline: The latest version of the truck will probably offer more typical Honda styling, compared to the more muscular, bold look of the old Ridgeline. While some truck enthusiasts might complain that the new truck isn't brawny enough, it will likely appeal to city-based car owners who don't need the size and might of a tough, muscular full-size pickup.

   Beyond the teaser sketch shown in Chicago, Honda hasn't released many details about its upcoming Ridgeline pickup. Expect that the new truck will utilize the Honda Pilot chassis, just like the old model, along with a 3.5-liter V6 and a 9-speed automatic transmission.  Stay tuned for more updates on the 2016 Honda Ridgeline.

Winterizing your vehicle

1.  Check your battery.  Getting stranded in the cold with a dead battery is no one's idea of a good time.  If you have a maintenance-free battery, there should be a window on the top of the battery that tells you the state of it's charge.  If it's not, check the fluid levels, and top off with distilled water as necessary.  if you're not sure how to check your battery, most any auto parts store will be able to check it for you.

2.  Check your tires.  While a dead battery can leave you stranded, balding tires on snowy and icy roads can lead to a much more dangerous situation.  If you live in an area that gets a significant amount of snow, you may want to consider snow tires.

3.  Check your wiper blades.  Going cheap on your wiper blades or ignoring them can lead to very unpleasant driving in the winter.  Bad wipers can't do an adequate job of keeping the snow and ice off of your windshield, no matter how high you have the defrosters blasting.

4.  Check your fluids.  Check your owner's manual, but for most vehicles, the cooling system should be flushed every two years.  If your vehicle is overdue, prior to winter setting in is as good of a time as any to have it taken care of.  Also, refer to your owner's manual to find what type and what mixture of anti-freeze you should be using.  You will also want to keep your windshield washer fluid full, using a fluid that is designed for not freezing in the cold weather.  If you get stuck behind a truck throwing dirty snow at your windshield, you will be glad you did.  As always, change your oil regularly.

5.  Keep your vehicle supplied.  Normal emergency materials are key for the winter.  If you do get stranded on the road, you want other driver's to be able to see you.  Roadside flares are not excessive to keep on hand.  Keeping extra warm cloths, gloves, and a blanket or two are always good ideas as well.  Be sure to have lock de-icer on hand- and keep in mind that it doesn't always help to have it in the car.  Some in your house, and some at work are a great idea.
 
6.  Care for the interior of your car.  In and out of the snow, ice, and salt can be particularly rough on your carpets.  Be sure to have at least an inexpensive set of floor mats for your car.  Better yet are the kind that can hold the water and keep it away from your carpets completely.

7.  Let your car warm up (and revving your engine doesn't really help).  Keep in mind, though, thieves are excellent at watching for cars that are running but unattended.  Have an extra door key that you keep on you and lock the doors while it is warming up, even if you are at home.
 
8.  Be safe.  Allow extra time to get where you are going, leave plenty of space between you and the driver in front, and use good common sense.  It's better to arrive a few minutes late than not at all. 

The redesigned Honda Accord

                                 

   The redesigned 2016 Honda Accord is going to have some big shoes to fill, it's own. After all, it has landed on the "10 Best Cars" list 29 times while remaining America's favorite family sedan. The 2016 Accord has added some new ingredients to an already spectacular recipe and we can't wait to try it. The improvements go beyond the typical revision and the result is beautiful.

  The Accord is currently a few years into it's ninth generation and the 2016 will bring a mild refresh that will be most recognized by the bold new grille design and redesigned taillights. The Sedan's will also get a re-contoured aluminum hood. With the Coupes, you're giving up a little practicality for a more of a performance look; they are very similar from the front seats forward but their completely different, wedgier tail and side add up to a more dynamic stance.

  Honda in the past hasn't had much of a reputation for cramming value and convenience features into its vehicles. But that's all been turning around lately. The Honda Accord Sedan offered in LX, Sport, EX, EX-L, and Touring trims, while the Coupe available in LX-S, EX, EX-L, and Touring models. The base Accord LX model includes dual-zone automatic climate control, 16-inch alloys, Bluetooth connectivity, a rearview camera system, and an eight-inch i-MID display with Pandora audio streaming and SMS text-message capability. V-6 models get some nicer cabin appointments, and EX-L models have a 360-watt system with Aha internet radio streaming. So, consider the Accord's shoes filled.

The redesigned Honda Civic

   The all-new Civic Concept took the spotlight at the 2015 New York Auto Show on April 1. As the basis for the entire line of the 2016 Civic family, the Civic Concept boasts a variety of sporty, aggressive features that will redefine the compact market. This fall, the Sedan-later followed by a Coupe, an Si, a 5-door model, and a new Civic Type-R-will celebrate our take on an advanced, sport-inspired design. Featuring a new turbo-charged engine, the Civic Concept embodies the spirited, game-changing future of the tenth-generation Civic.

   The new Civic is being called "the most radical redesign in Civic history". It's a redesign that Mr. Honda himself would be proud of, a concept car that so closely resembles that of the tenth-generation production car. Honda is returning to the sporty Civics of beloved memory, establishing new high points of handling and refinement for the model. The new Civic will be a little wider and a little longer than the current model, with a shorter front over-hang and A-pillars that are pulled back to give it a more exciting profile. The front and rear LED lighting strongly resemble that of the current model and the rest of the Honda line up. Stay tuned for more information, including horsepower, body materials and suspension architecture, on this exciting redesign of the Honda Civic.

Introducing the All-New 2016 Honda Pilot

For 2016, Honda has completely re-designed the Pilot, and the differences are immediately noticeable.  Gone are the squared-off front and back ends, replaced with a more curved and modern look.  The new Pilot's front end now looks more like the popular CR-V's bigger brother. 

Multiple seating options allow you to customize your Pilot to your needs.  There is now a captain's chair option for the second row, which is great for kids and adults alike on long road trips.  Heated and cooled seats are also options for the first and second rows, another nice feature for passengers. 

Other improvements in the third-generation 2016 Pilot include a bit more space, more horsepower, better handling, and improved road noise.  Take some time to watch the video below and get reacquainted with the Honda Pilot, then visit our website to see our inventory of the all-new 2016 Honda Pilot.

The New Turbo that Reuses Energy

Honda VTEC Turbo

  Honda’s VTEC TURBO is the turbo engine reimagined, achieving both excellent fuel economy and the fun of driving. Turbo engines were traditionally powerful - at the cost of fuel efficiency - but that has completely changed with the VTEC TURBO. With the same amount of fuel, the VTEC TURBO produces more power than a naturally-aspirated engine. As the turbocharger’s turbines are powered by exhaust gas, exhaust energy is reused, increasing thermal efficiency. By reusing exhaust gas that was simply dissipated, new energy is efficiently created. The VTEC TURBO works in a way that is similar to the modern trend of recycling.

The 2016 Redesign Honda Pilot is here!

   

The 2016 redesigned Honda Pilot is looking to be THE family vehicle. From constantly checking how well child-safety seats fit in vehicles to how sane they keep Mom and Dad, the 2016 Honda Pilot was at the top of the list. The 2016 Honda Pilot has axed its hard edges: it's once again a smooth, capable family wagon, one that raises the bar for refinement. The Honda Pilot was a pioneer in the race to reformat rugged SUVs into something more prosaic, more useful--more liveable on a daily basis. When it was new in 2003, the Pilot got the driving height and all-weather traction of the SUV right, and wrapped it in an airy Honda-like body with lots of seats, superb visibility and, truth, frumpy looks.

   To be considered a great family vehicle-like the 2015 Hyundai Santa Fe- it needs to be able to take care of all it's passengers. While the driver needs to be comfortable, the little ones really come first and Honda made sure they thought of that as well. Easy to reach cupholders everywhere is the first thing that's noticed, including double cupholders in the rear of the vehicle. Along with having three top tether anchors, the redesigned Pilot will have the capability to accomodate three car seats across the 2nd row when equipped with the bench seat, which will appeal to larger families. With all the room available in the Pilot, being tall isn't going to be a problem. The second row features two buttons; one being on the seat bottom and the other located on the seat back, making exiting the vehicle painless, even for a person that is six feet tall.

   From a Blue-Ray player to an HDMI port for gaming, the Pilot appears to have plenty of electronics to keep children of all ages occupied for hours. The Pilot also offers plenty of USB ports, some being powerful enough to charge iPads. Parents can also enjoy many entertainment options, but may be more excited about all the available storage in the Pilot. The center console is much larger than the old Pilot and can easily hold a large purse. The smaller cubbies throughout the vehicle make storing childrens things convenient as well. The cargo area is also impressive with its significant amount of under floor storage. There's a reversible cargo panel for dirty stuff like soccer cleats and beach chairs-and this cargo well behind the third row can hold an 82-quart cooler. Capri Sun for everyone!

   Even though the important facts like how much power the Pilot boasts and what kind of mileage you'll get, haven't been released yet, it carries numerous options to make families happy while traveling; therefore, putting the 2016 Honda Pilot in the running to be THE family vehicle.

  Shop our inventory online or visit our showroom located at 3707 N. Harrison St. Davenport, IA. 52806 to speak with one of Honda Certified Product Specialists and we would be more than happy to show you the new 2016 Honda Pilot.

Small is the new midsize

 

 

 

Small is the new midsize. Automakers are producing smaller, compressed version of the popular crossovers for consumers who desire the look and utility of the larger models without the larger footprint. The new Honda HR-V is an example of what is being produced. The younger sibling of the CR-V and the older sibling of the Fit, the Honda HR-V will offer an alternative for those consumers who need space for passengers and gear but don't need the family sized vehicle. The new HR-V will offer a number of safety features including anti-lock brakes, stability and traction control and numerous air bags throughout the vehicle. When the HR-V's seats are folded, it creates an impressive amount of cargo space; 59 cubic feet, not much less than that of some midsize crossovers.
