2016 Honda CR-V Earns NHSTA 5-Star Rating, Too


For those that weren’t aware, there are two main safety-centric organizations that perform crash tests on all automotive models in a given year: the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and the federal government’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. While both are rather stringent in the tests that they perform, they have the same basic modus operandi in helping consumers choose automobiles that are going to protect them in the event of an unforeseen accident.

Five Honda Models Earn IIHS Safety Accolades


This won’t come as a huge surprise to those that have been Honda owners for some time, but Honda models continue to be among the safest automobiles in the industry, as proven once again by safety tests performed over the course of the last few months by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.

These tests, which look at all the most common ways that a vehicle can be involved in an accident, look at how advanced safety features and designated crumple zones work when a vehicle is pushed to its limits. Since Honda is known for working in cutting-edge safety tech and performing extremely well on these tests, it’s no shock to see that four 2016 model year Honda vehicles already have been named an IIHS Top Safety Pick+, while a fifth has been named a Top Safety Pick.

2016 Honda Models to Get Apple CarPlay


Once every few years, somebody comes up with an in-car technology that completely changes the way that people enjoy their automobiles. There was a time before windshield wipers, for example. Imagine how much easier life was after those came along!

Someday, we may say the same thing about Apple CarPlay, an in-car system that runs iOS and iOS apps through the vehicle’s touchscreen or through voice commands, and as your Honda dealership we are very excited to announce that certain Honda models will, for the first time, feature this slick new bit of tech for the 2016 model year.

2016 Honda Civic Earns Top KBB Best Buy Award


While the 2016 Honda Accord is currently the best-selling automobile in the Honda stable and the 2016 Honda CR-V remains the top-selling SUV in the entire American auto industry, no Honda automobile has generated as much positive buzz over the course of the last several months than the 2016 Honda Civic, a vehicle that just last month was named the Kelley Blue Book Overall Best Buy for the 2016 model year.

2016 Honda Civic Coupe to Debut in L.A.


There really is nothing quite like a good auto show, and the Los Angeles Auto Show remains one of the more entertaining ones on an annual basis, especially when it comes to Honda cars. This year, Honda has big plans as they gear up to debut the all-new 2016 Honda Civic Coupe alongside the ballyhooed Clarity Fuel Cell vehicle, which we’ve discussed in this space in detail.

2016 Honda Pilot Models Rock SEMA


In a lot of ways, the SEMA show held annually in Las Vegas is one of the most unique and entertaining auto exhibitions in the industry today. Since it focuses on aftermarket customization and crazy concepts, there really is very little limit to what an automaker will bring for the viewing pleasure of the masses. Even relatively conservative models can look fairly outrageous (and awesome) when put on display at SEMA with a handful of personalization options added.

Drivers Keeping Honda Models for 10+ Years


One of the things that really sets apart Honda from the rest of the automotive competition is that they produce vehicles that consumers tend to keep for a very, very long time. A lot of that is tied to the reliability of Honda cars and SUVs, but whatever the reason, Honda is one of only two makes of vehicles that customers keep for a decade or more, according to a recent survey of 400,000 vehicles organized by iSeeCars.com. That is truly elite status for our beloved machines, and a list of the “Top New Cars Owners Keep for 10 Years” showed just how many Honda models stick around longer than a two-term president.

Honda Introduces New Clarity HFC Vehicle


While America waits for a workable infrastructure for hydrogen fuel vehicles, automakers continue to push out more and more HFC automobiles, with Honda coming up with the most recent (and arguably the most intriguing) one yet.

Honda May Add HondaVAC to More Odyssey Models



Honda always has strived to be an innovative brand when it comes to technology, and they proved that in an especially unique way back in 2014 when they debuted a range-topping version of the 2014 Honda Odyssey that featured a built-in HondaVAC vacuum cleaner.

Situated just inside an interior rear panel of the minivan, the HondaVAC is a perfect tool for families with children who make incredible messes when riding inside the family vehicle. Rather than lugging around a shop vac (which is impossible) or even a clutter-creating dust-buster, Honda introduced this vacuum cleaner to make life easier for consumers.

Honda Releases 2016 CR-V Special Edition


It might seem like hyperbole to say that everybody loves the 2016 Honda CR-V, but the fact that it’s the best-selling SUV in the entire country right now sort of makes that statement true. We here at Pacific Honda are pleased to announce that it’s about to get even more popular, as Honda plans to release a Special Edition model in the coming months.

Honda Accord Named IIHS Top Safety Pick+


One of the reasons that consumers really give Honda vehicles serious consideration is their reputation for safety. Five 2015 models (and two 2016 models, so far) have been named either a Top Safety Pick or a Top Safety Pick+ by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety for their efforts in the arena of safety, with the most recent of those automobiles being the 2016 Honda Accord, recently refreshed to offer frontal collision prevention and to dominate the always tough small-front overlap crash test.

Honda Earns Most KBB.com Awards in 2015


Honda vehicles are about as decorated as any auto brand in the world, and while a lot of those accolades come with huge trophies from long-standing, respected organizations, there isn’t a single honor that your San Diego Honda dealership takes for granted, particularly those from online auto valuation website Kelley Blue Book.

2016 Honda CR-V Earns 5-Star Safety Rating


While it’s easy to look at all the bells and whistles that automakers offer these days in their safety technology suites, the truth is that automakers put a lot of work into making their automobiles as safe as possible in ways that aren’t even remotely complicated. While it’s great that so many new Honda vehicles offer blind spot monitoring and other such advanced safety tech, sometimes it really is as simple as designing a car that crumples appropriately upon impact. It doesn’t sound like much, but keeping the cabin of a vehicle secure is the first step in making sure everybody in the vehicle is safe when it matters most.

Honda Models Top Segments in Value Retention


The auto industry is a funny thing sometimes. Take, for example, the 2015 Honda CR-V, which is the best-selling SUV in the industry, and how it recently was named the best in its segment for projected value retention after five years by Edmunds.com. Logically, one would think that if the used CR-V market is flooded with inventory five years down the road that it would actually hold onto less of its value, but that doesn’t look like what’s going to happen.

2016 Honda Civic to Debut in September


From the moment that Honda debuted the all-new, completely-redesigned 2016 Honda Civic concept vehicle in New York earlier this year, Honda dealers all over the country had a sense that it was going to be something special. With over 16.5 million models sold in its history, the Civic is the best-selling model that this particular automaker has ever developed, and we already can tell that the latest iteration is going to further boost those numbers.

2016 Honda Pilot Earns Top Safety Pick+ Rating

 Going through the crash test process must be for automakers what going through a home inspection feels like for people selling their houses. All the work is done, it’s time to move on, but before anything significant can happen somebody official has to make sure that everything is up to code. 

Just like with home inspections, there are a lot of things that can wrong with the kinds of crash tests performed by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, but thankfully the recently-redesigned 2016 Honda Pilot just got through its maiden voyage through the process with glowing marks. The Pilot earned top marks of “Good” on all five of the IIHS’s major crash tests, including the famously stringent small overlap test that has stymied so many automobiles over the course of the last few years.

Honda Tops YouGov BrandIndex for Millenials


When the higher-ups at Honda spend their millions of dollars on advertising, they do so with the hopes that those ads will, in fact, reach the people they hope to reach. It’s a challenging game to play, but good advertising combined with a good product very often leads to plenty of word-of-mouth buzz that plays into the overall success of a brand. Honda is doing particularly well in all of these areas, according to the YouGov BrandIndex, which recently determined that Honda was among the top auto brands in the minds of Millennials.

Get More for Less with 2016 Honda Odyssey SE


One thing we’ve learned over the course of the last several years selling the Honda Odyssey is that it’s a minivan good enough to make people forget that they “have” to buy a minivan. The truth is that for a lot of families there really isn’t a better people pusher than a minivan, and as your Honda dealership we obviously think that the 2016 Honda Odyssey is the most stylish, comfortable and complete of the options that currently exist in today’s market.

Honda Fit, HR-V Among Top Back-to-School Cars


There comes a time in every person’s life when it’s time to buy their first car. For some people, that happens immediately following their 16th birthday while they’re still in high school, and others have to wait until the need arises at some point during their college careers to make the purchase. Either way, it’s an exciting time in anybody’s life.

"What feels really good is that Honda automobiles are also showing considerable strength, even with the new 2016 Accord and all-new Civic on the horizon."

2016 Honda Accord to Receive Mid-Cycle Refresh


We all know that vehicles occasionally get refreshed, and not just in terms of the generational updates that come every four or five years. Mid-cycle refreshes are good for updates in technology and safety features, and that’s exactly what we’re about to see with the forthcoming 2016 Honda Accord.

Powertrain
The 2016 Odyssey is powered by a 3.5-liter, 24-valve V-6 engine producing 248 hp at 5,700 rpm and 250 lb-ft of torque at 4,800 rpm. Honda's i-VTEC® enhances power delivery while Variable Cylinder Management™ (VCM®) helps maximize fuel efficiency and reduce emissions. The engine is paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission which together helped the Odyssey receive EPA fuel-economy ratings of 19/28/22 mpg2 city/highway/combined and California Air Resources Board (CARB) ULEV-2 emissions certification3.
Body
Refined and youthful, sporty and advanced, the Odyssey's styling includes premium elements including black-trimmed headlights, available fog lights, a muscular hood, and black-surround grille for an upscale appearance. Body-color matched side mirrors and bright chrome trim add to the premium appearance. Rear styling and LED taillights with clear lenses and eye-catching perimeter "light pipes" add to the polished look.
Lightweight aluminum is used for the hood, front fenders and front suspension lower control arms. The LX model features 17-inch steel wheels with covers, while EX and EX-L models utilize 17-inch aluminum alloy wheels. Touring and Touring Elite models feature 18-inch premium sport aluminum alloy wheels.
The 2016 Odyssey EX, SE, EX-L, Touring and Touring Elite models have a wiper-linked headlight system that automatically turns on the headlights when the front wipers are activated. In addition, standard one-touch turn signals provide convenience for the driver when making routine lane changes. With this system, one flick of the turn-signal lever provides three blinks of the turn signals – ideal for changing lanes. Pressing the lever past the "click point" provides continuous blinking.
A keyless entry system with push button start – on EX, SE, EX-L, Touring and Touring Elite trims – allows the driver to approach the vehicle, open the door and start the engine – all without touching a key. The system only requires the driver have possession of the key fob. The system also simplifies opening the sliding side doors and tailgate – locking all doors when leaving the vehicle requires only touching the lock button on any door handle.
Interior
The 2016 Odyssey's interior is ideal for families, with high-grade meter illumination and interior lighting, chrome-trimmed instrument dials and door handles, an available 7-inch touchscreen, and an ideally positioned DVD player for the available Rear Entertainment System. Sophisticated styling and white halo lighting make the instrumentation easier to read and the climate controls easy to operate.
All 2016 Odyssey models and trim levels include a rearview camera. Odyssey LX, EX, SE and EX-L models feature a single-angle "Normal View" display, while EX-L Navi, Touring and Touring Elite models have a Multi-Angle Rearview Camera with wide, normal and top-down views – all with improved optical quality. All rearview camera systems feature guidelines.
An Expanded View Driver's Mirror is also standard on all Odyssey models. The driver's side mirror provides a 19-percent increase in visible area, offering an enhanced view of objects that might otherwise be hidden in the vehicle's blind spot. Included on Odyssey EX, SE, EX-L and Touring models, the Honda LaneWatch™ display provides an expanded rear view of the passenger side roadway. The system uses a camera mounted on the bottom of the passenger door mirror, which when activated by the right turn signal or the signal-stalk LaneWatch™ button, displays a live, 80-degree view of the passenger-side roadway, compared to 18- to 22-degrees typical of a standard door mirror. The Touring Elite features the Blind Spot Information (BSI) system that uses radar sensors located on both sides of the rear bumpers to continually monitor blind-spot areas to help determine whether a vehicle is in the driver's blind spot. The system provides a visual cue by lighting an indicator near the sideview mirrors, depending on which side of the Odyssey a vehicle is detected. The system also gives an audible warning and flashes the indicator to further alert the driver if the turn signal is activated on the side where a vehicle is being detected. To prevent false alarms while maneuvering at low speed, the BSI system is disabled below approximately 20 mph.
HondaVAC™
The Odyssey SE and Touring Elite feature the first minivan in-vehicle vacuum cleaner system, HondaVAC™, which is designed to help families keep the Odyssey's interior neat and clean. Engineered for dry use, the HondaVAC™ operates on the vehicle's 12-volt electrical system, and its performance easily surpasses that of a handheld rechargeable vacuums.
Integrated in the rear cargo area of the vehicle, the HondaVAC™ includes an extendable hose that can reach every interior corner of the vehicle. Two separate head attachments expand versatility, while a removable debris canister and replaceable filter bag makes maintaining the vacuum easy. To protect the vehicle battery's state of charge, the HondaVAC™ runs up to eight minutes when the vehicle's ignition is in Accessory mode – or continuously if the engine is running.
Audio, Connectivity and Rear Entertainment
Odyssey EX, SE, EX-L, Touring and Touring Elite models have intuitive touch panel controls that reduce button clutter on the center stack. An upper 8-inch display and a lower 7-inch display provide a simpler overall interface improving usability of multiple features at one time (i.e. phone and audio. navigation and audio, etc.).
When paired to a compatible cellular phone, Aha™ and Pandora® interfaces are available on EX, SE, EX-L, Touring and Touring Elite models. SiriusXM® Radio is included in SE, EX-L, Touring and Touring Elite models, a HDD audio system comes on the EX-L Navi, Touring and Touring Elite models, and a rear DVD player is standard in SE, EX-L RES, Touring and Touring Elite models. The Touring Elite also features HD Radio™ and new Neural 5.1 Surround™ audio.
Audio system output to seven speakers is 240 watts for Odyssey LX, 270 watts for EX, SE, EX-L and EX-L RES, and 246 watts for EX-L Navi and Touring. The premium audio system in the Odyssey Touring Elite boasts 650 watts of power and 12 speakers.
HandsFreeLink® is included on all models, and Bluetooth® audio streaming, SMS and email functions are available with compatible smartphones. Additional features include a phonebook, call history, speed dial and contact picture. Odyssey EX, SE, EX-L, Touring and Touring Elite include HondaLink™ featuring Aha™ which offers content from hundreds of channels through a tethered compatible smartphone.
The Rear Entertainment System (RES) on the SE, EX-L RES, Touring and Touring Elite models features an intuitive control layout and high screen quality. This system features ideal placement of the DVD player and intuitive operation for the rear audio controls. Screen resolution is VGA on SE, EX-L RES and Touring models, and the Touring Elite's higher grade 16.2-inch WVGA ultra-widescreen offers increased resolution.
Safety and Driver Assistive Features
The Odyssey utilizes the next-generation of the Honda Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) body structure and makes extensive use of high-strength steel in the A-, B- and C-pillars, roof rails, floor rails, front body area, and front subframe. This results in a very strong front frame and door structure for increased protection in a frontal collision.
Advanced driver-assistive technologies available on the Odyssey include Forward Collision Warning (FCW) and Lane Departure Warning (LDW). Using the Odyssey's front camera module, FCW warns of a possible collision with a vehicle detected in front, while LDW notifies the driver of departures from detected lanes4. The two systems are packaged together on Odyssey EX-L, Touring and Touring Elite models, and provide visual and audible warnings.
North American Development and Manufacturing
The Odyssey was designed and engineered by Honda R&D Americas in its Los Angeles design studio and Raymond, Ohio, new-model development center. The Odyssey is produced5 exclusively by Honda Manufacturing of Alabama in Lincoln, Alabama.
