Facelift, better mileage keep new Honda Accord competitive
"It's amazing how a few changes such as a new grille,
bumper and trunk lid have made the Accord a lot more
appealing to at least my eyes. The comments I got from
neighbors and others suggest that I'm not the only one
who likes the facelift.
Inside, Honda has always managed to make the Accord look and feel more upscale than its starting price suggests. And its ergonomic design has been a constant source of praise.
Yet Honda found room for improvement for 2011. It updated Accord's instrument panel, bolstered seat support, tweaked trim and upholstery, and enhanced ergonomics by moving the climate controls closer to the driver.
Honda also added the SE trim level to the Accord stable. That means buyers can now get luxury features such as heated front seats, power-lumbar support and leather-trimmed seats and steering wheel in a model with a starting price of just $23,730.
Accord has long been the car for everyman, and it still is. Competitors might be vying ferociously for its market share, but the updated Accord seems capable of holding them off until Honda unleashes a new generation of its longtime favorite."

Kelley Blue Book - 2010 Top 10 Family Vehicles
If safe, roomy and affordable are the
characteristics that qualify a vehicle as a family car, then the
American family has never had so many choices. While a sea of options is
ultimately a good thing, it can also make it more difficult for
families to pick a winner. To help ease the pain, every year we put
together a list of the Top 10 Family Vehicles, evaluating an
ever-lengthening list of eligible vehicles on such factors as resale
value, fuel efficiency, capability and kid-friendliness. This year's
list features vehicles in a range of sizes and prices, offering
something for a wide variety of families.
2010 Honda Odyssey
We've always thought an Acura badge would look right at home on the sharply styled, thoroughly refined Honda Odyssey. The most premium-like minivan on the market was also our editors' top pick in a recent segment comparison test, thanks to its ability to package versatility and amenities in a vehicle that is both comfortable and involving to drive.
2010 Honda Accord Crosstour
The 2010 Honda Accord Crosstour is everything we like about the Accord Sedan and more. It shares the same V6 engine, passenger room and overall styling with its sedan counterpart, but boasts almost twice the cargo capacity -- a big win for families -- thanks to its hatchback shape.

3 Honda Vehicles Place in "10 Best of the Aughties"!
Honda Accord: 10 10Best Appearances
2009 Honda Accord Sedan
Also winning 10 trophies over the past decade-among a noteworthy 24 total honors-the Honda Accord continues its reign over the family-sedan class, offering the best complete package and fun-to-drive zeal.
What We Said:"By delivering so much more than anyone expects, the Accord has become a perennial bestseller, as well as a 10Best fixture." -January 2001"It's equally clear that the Accord has evolved steadily to maintain its position as a mainstream pacesetter." -January 2009
Honda S2000: 4 10Best Appearances
2008 Honda s2000
Honda's sports car is now just a memory, but the joy and capability baked into this high-revving roadster keep the S2000 among our all-time favorites. Four 10Best titles say that Honda definitely got it right, but we have to wonder: Was this Big H's last hard-core car?
What We Said:"Turn the car loose on a racetrack, and you quickly find an outstanding chassis with tremendous grip, excellent balance, and racy-quick steering." -January 2000
"This is a pure sports car - extra virgin, first pressing." -January 2002Honda Fit: 3 10Best Appearances
2009 Honda Fit Sport
The Fit's entry into the U.S. was brilliantly timed by Honda, as the little runabout appeared just as rising fuel prices had us questioning our gas-guzzling way of life. The fun-to-drive spirit, versatility, and extreme value of the Fit have earned it a place in our hearts and three elections to the 10Best pantheon.
What We Said:"Not only is it endowed with an impressive array of standard features and an upscale interior, but its dynamics rival the responses of cars with much fancier pedigrees and price tags." -January 2007
"If there's a better combination of thrift, practicality, and fun-to-drive, we haven't seen it yet." -January 2009Read More Here: http://autos.yahoo.com/articles/autos_content_landing_pages/1503/decade-in-review-10best-of-the-aughties/
Survey: Honda perceived to be tops in customer, quality commitment
Coolest Cars Under $18,000
The auto experts at Kelley Blue Book call these the best budget rides you can buy.
by Peter Valdes-Dapena, senior writer, CNNMoney.com
Sunday, May 30, 2010
Honda Fit
Price: $14,900 - $16,410
Gas mileage: 27 City / 33 Hwy
The Fit earns major points for its fuel economy and fun-to-drive character. KBB also lauds options like navigation and iPod integration.
Honda Civic
Price: $15,455 - $25,340
Gas mileage: 26 City / 34 Hwy
... the Civic gets points from KBB for its futuristic exterior styling and cabin design as well as options like GPS and a leather-appointed interior.
Consumer Reports has named Honda and Subaru best all-around vehicle makers in its annual auto issue, marking the fourth consecutive year Honda won top marks from the influential magazine. Among seven major auto brands, consumers consider Honda to be the most committed to customers and to product quality. Ford ranked second, followed by Nissan, Chevrolet, and Toyota, based on a new survey by the Consumer Reports National Research Center. Hyundai and Chrysler trailed the others by a significant margin.
Honda truly stands out by this measure, being perceived as having much greater customer and quality commitment than its chief rivals. Key to this accomplishment is that Honda has a reputation for building good vehicles that perform well, are fuel efficient, and have strong reliability histories.

To see how consumers' perception of a brand's commitment to customers and quality has changed in the wake of Toyota's high-profile safety and image challenges, the Consumer Reports National Research Center conducted a telephone survey using a nationally representative sample. More than 1,700 interviews were completed among adults whose household owns at least one vehicle.
Commitment
Percentage of respondents who said a brand was committed to the customer or quality.
| BRAND | CUSTOMER COMMITMENT | QUALITY COMMITMENT |
