The Honda Fit’s unique take on compact car styling, functionality and packaging hits you square in the face before you take your seat within its cheerful little body. The doors opens ultra-wide, and a massive aperture presents itself with room galore around the seat, which sits low in the cabin, with room to spare in every direction around it. The

Vehicle Type Crossover SUV History/Description Honda phased out and replaced their first-generation Pilot for model-year 2009 with a new model that packed updated styling, technology, feature content and an even bigger body. Longer, wider and taller than the original machine, the new-for-2009 eight-passenger Pilot received a welcome makeove

The brand-new Honda HR-V is one of the most attention-grabbing vehicles I've reviewed in a long time. It garners a lot of looks from a lot of different people, I had a lot of people walk over to ask what it is and to have a look inside and ended up fielding a ton of questions. I found this quite interesting as the outside shape, while perhaps a s

Collingwood, Ontario – The all-new 2016 Honda Civic sedan is so different from the current one that its appearance is rather shocking at first. Not only is it considerably bigger – 75 mm longer, 20 mm lower and 126 mm wider with a wheelbase that is 30 mm longer – but it has a much sportier bodystyle with prominent arches over the front wheels, a fa

Sometimes the timing of a particular press vehicle is just right. In this case, the 2017 Honda Ridgeline arrived just when we were a week into a substantial renovation, and we were able to put its box’s cargo capability to good use. I was happy to see it arrive, and sad to see it go. Since the Ridgeline is mostly a Honda Pilot underneath, y

Victoria, BC – The CR-V is a big deal to Honda. It’s is the second-biggest seller for them, after their perennial (I don’t know, does 18 years in a row as bestselling car in Canada count as perennial?) sales driver, the Civic. Anything that is a manufacturer’s second biggest sales pillar will get special attention, and the fact that the compact SUV

Honda calls it a “mid-cycle refresh” but there’s little that hasn’t been updated or upgraded on the 2015 Honda CR-V: the engine, transmission, suspension, body structure, interior design, infotainment system, safety features, styling, and pricing have all undergone significant changes – though many are not in plain view. In fact, with these engine

Ten years ago if you walked into a Honda dealership and demanded to see the brand’s most expensive model you’d be presented a racy little roadster, one that continues to be revered to this day, long after production has ceased. Honda’s most prestigious offering is now a crossover SUV. The S2000, as it was known, embodied so much of what Hon

Everything's relative. A decade ago, the dimensions of the new 2016 Honda HR-V would have put it in the compact SUV segment; now it's designated a subcompact CUV. But don't let the “subcompact” label fool you; this vehicle is roomy and substantial. It's just that everything else has grown!  Don't let the “subcompact” label fool you; this vehi

The Honda Civic has been the best-selling car in Canada for like… ever . It’s so far removed from any Civic that has come before, I’m having a hard time convincing people this car actually is a Honda Civic. Expertly reflecting our national taste in vehicles, the Civic has resolutely stood for solid, basic, economical and reliable transport

Honda’s new Civic has been grabbing more praise and awards this year than any other car. The automotive media just love it, including my peers at AJAC who voted it the Canadian Car of the Year . And then there’s that colour. Energy Green, Honda calls it. I called it Kermit on Wheels or the Flying Sneeze, depending on my mood. The Civic has

There’s a good reason that the Honda Accord Hybrid won the overall 2014 Canadian Green Car award, and was voted the top hybrid again for the 2015 edition: it’s one of the few hybrids on the road so far that uses advanced technology normally reserved for plug-in hybrid buyers at a mainstream sedan price. But it certainly won’t be the last. With

The 2016 Honda Accord Sedan has been given a host of changes this year to keep it up-to-date with current trends in vehicle communications and safety technology, styling, performance and fuel economy advancements. Notable changes include front and rear styling revisions, structural improvements to the body and platform, a new lightweight aluminum h

Nearly 39,000 Honda CR-V compact crossovers found Canadian homes in 2015. Sure, that’s 3,285 units behind the Toyota RAV4 and 8,765 shy of the Ford Escape, but in the big picture, the Alliston Ontario-built CR-V is a sales powerhouse. “Easy” describes the driving part as well. The 2.4L might not have the shove of some turbo-charged competitors,

LEXINGTON, KY – I’d always looked upon minivans as the automotive equivalent of Crocs – sensible, durable and comfortable – but I sure as hell wouldn’t want to be seen in them. After spending four days and more than 2,000 kilometres in a 2019 Honda Odyssey , I’ll grudgingly admit that there could be exceptions. Did I mention that this thing is
