Honda

JAS Motorsports has announced that in 2018 it will be introducing a race car based on the new Honda Civic Type R. The car has a completely revamped exterior design and aerodynamic package to cut drag and improve downforce.

If you really don’t like to stand out, the car for you has traditionally been something bland that the eye glances right over like the Toyota Camry or Honda Accord. Honda has teased a concept sketch of the all-new 2018 Accord and the vehicle looks really cool.

There’s a very common cliché that people use that I usually dislike: “It is what it is.” This time it’s rather apropos for my tester this week. The 2017 Honda CR-V is what it is. That may sound negative, but I’m using this in a positive light.

My tastes in cars have changed over the last year or so. I used to be all in on sports cars, and I still love them, but I recognize they aren’t ideal for me and my family.

Honda fanboys need to put down their energy drinks and take a big step back, because all of their bitching about the all-new Honda Civic Si being a disappointment is about as off-base as it gets.

Minivans get a bad rap. Sure they aren’t that fast, and they aren’t that sexy but if you need to move a lot of people or stuff in comfort, they are fantastic. Honda has launched its new 2018 Odyssey van and it gets a modest price increase of just $100 for the base model.

It’s official folks, Honda has announced that the all-new Civic Type R is now the world’s fastest front-wheel-drive (FWD) production car. On April 3rd, 2017 the new Type R lapped the 12.9-mile loop in a record 7 minutes, 43.80 seconds, in the process setting the fastest FWD lap time in history, crushing the old record by over 3 seconds.

Honda isn’t waiting until a big automotive convention to show fans of the Civic Si what it’s cooking up for this model year. The 2017 Civic Si will debut on YouTube this Thursday, April 6 at 8am PDT.

The coolest car that Honda has rolled out under its own name in a long time is the new Civic Type R, and unless you live in a cave somewhere, you know that this Type R is actually coming to the US.

Honda has a massive base of satisfied customers, but on paper there isn’t much about the new Honda Clarity EV that will appeal to even the most dedicated Honda fanboy. Of most import is that it turns out it only has a driving range of only 80 miles.

Honda has announced that it will have a “close to production” model of the sweet new Civic Type-R on hand the Geneva Auto Show. At the show last year Honda showed off a prototype of the car.

A patent application was recently filed by Honda, and it is for something that makes me really excited. The patent drawings show a minimalist mid-engine sports car that reminds me a lot of an Arial Atom.

GM and Honda have announced that their three year partnership is expected to bring affordable hydrogen fuel cell vehicles to market by 2020. The joint venture will now produce next generation fuel cell systems at a GM battery plant near Detroit.

Honda is teasing the all-new 2018 Odyssey minivan ahead of its official debut at the 2017 NAIAS show in January. Honda says that the new van will have a low and wide design and the artist’s rendering looks like it.

When you redesign a top-selling vehicle, you’re taking a big chance. Honda is a company not known as a risk taker. So, while it has long been planned to update and redo the Honda CR-V for 2017, it’s still a big risk for Honda.
