Honda Wins ALG's 2013 Residual Value Award for Best Mainstream Brand Topping All Other Competitors in Long Term Value

2013 Accord, Odyssey and Fit Each Top Value Ratings

 

American Honda Motor Co., Inc. received multiple 2013 Residual Value Awards from ALG, including the top honor of Best Mainstream Brand. Additionally, the 2013

Honda Accord, Honda Odyssey and Honda Fit each received individual Residual Value Awards as the highest ranked vehicles in their respective segments. As the leading provider of residual value information to the automotive industry, ALG's annual Residual Value Awards honor the vehicles in each industry segment that ALG predicts will retain the highest percentage of their original price after a three-year period.

"Long-term value and reliability are both hallmarks of the Honda brand and we are honored to be recognized by ALG as the industry leader in these key qualities," said Michael Accavitti, vice president of national marketing operations at American Honda. "The Honda engineering philosophy not only delivers immediate value to our customers but will pay off in the long run as well."

The Honda brand was named the Best Mainstream Brand for 2013, which recognizes the entire Honda lineup for exceptional vehicle quality, strong brand desirability, and long-term reliability. The all-new 2013 Accord ranked the highest in the ultra competitive Midsize Car category. The Honda Odyssey prevailed in the Best Minivan (MPV) category, retaining the top spot for the second consecutive year. The Honda Fit received a Residual Value Award for the fifth consecutive year in the Sub-Compact Car category. Since 2000, the Honda brand has earned 28 model awards and seven overall brand awards from ALG.

"The Honda brand is a constant in ALG's Residual Value Award history, "said Larry Dominique, President of ALG. "With its smart, value-focused financial strategy, excellent perceived quality, and the all-new Accord, Honda has proven that it provides a compelling, high residual value package for consumers."
ALG determines the award winners through careful study of the competition in each segment, historical vehicle performance and industry trends. Vehicle quality, production levels relative to demand, as well as pricing strategies are among the key factors that affect ALG's residual value forecasts.

Additional media information, including detailed pricing features and high-resolution photography of the 2013 Accord, Fit and Odyssey are available at www.hondanews.com. Consumer information is available at automobiles.honda.com.

2013 Honda Accord, Civic, Fit and CR-V Receive ‘Best Resale Value' Honors from Kelley Blue Book's KBB.com

 

TORRANCE, Calif., Nov., 27, 2012 – American Honda Motor Co., Inc. received six Best Resale Value Awards from trusted vehicle valuation source Kelley Blue Book www.kbb.com. The all-new 2013 Honda Accord, the restyled 2013 Honda Civic and Civic Si, as well as the 2013 Honda Fit each earned awards in their respective segments for projected resale value after five years of ownership. Additionally, the 2013 Honda Civic and 2013 Honda CR-V were both honored as two of the overall Top 10 Best Resale Value vehicles in America this year.

 

2013 Honda Vehicles Honored with Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards

 

2013 Honda Accord – Best Resale Value: Mid-Size Car
2013 Honda Civic – Best Resale Value: Compact Car
2013 Honda CR-V – Best Resale Value: Top 10
2013 Honda Civic – Best Resale Value: Top 10
2013 Honda Civic Si – Best Resale Value: Sporty Compact Car

"Honda vehicles are engineered to provide a fun-to-drive experience as well as overall value for the money," said Michael Accavitti, vice president of national marketing operations at American Honda. "With a continued focus on quality, fuel-efficiency and premium content, we have always believed that a Honda provides every buyer with added value, and we are honored to be recognized for our efforts by valuation leader Kelley Blue Book."
Kelley Blue Book's Best Resale Value Awards are based on projections from the Kelley Blue Book® Official Residual Value Guide, determined by a skilled staff of automotive analysts. These prestigious awards honor vehicles expected to maintain the greatest proportion of their original Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) after five years of ownership. Since depreciation (or loss of value) is typically a car buyer's primary expense during ownership, these awards are designed to help consumers make more informed car-buying decisions.
"Honda's dominance in multiple car segments is evidenced by its class-leading wins in four segments," said Eric Ibara, director of residual consulting, Kelley Blue Book. "Based on our projections, no other car in the mid-size car segment can beat the 2013 Accord when it comes to resale value. 2013 Honda vehicles also took top honors in several very hotly contested segments, and they're not flukes. With many repeat winners and perennial favorites, the Honda brand continues to produce quality vehicles that return value to their owners, both during the ownership period and upon resale."

Kelley Blue Book established its annual Best Resale Value Awards in 2003. The company reports projections based on current vehicle data, relevant auction transactions, sales data, market conditions for each vehicle, competition within vehicle segments, expectations of the future economy and the combined experience of Kelley Blue Book's residual analysts. Residual values reflect projected future auction values for vehicles in average condition with 75,000 miles at the end of a five-year lease or ownership period.

Car and Driver magazine has named the all-new 2013 Honda Accord and the Honda Fit as winners of its prestigious and highly competitive annual '10Best Cars' award.

The Honda Fit has been honored with "10Best Cars" status in each of the seven years that it has been on sale in the United States.

"The Accord and Fit both embody Honda's core values of ingenious packaging, great visibility, fun driving dynamics and fuel efficiency," said Michael Accavitti, vice president of marketing operations for American Honda Motor Co., Inc. "The editors of Car and Driver continue to recognize these attributes and our vehicles as among the industry's best, a sentiment clearly echoed by Honda's customers."

The Fit has been sold in the U.S. since the 2007 model year and is manufactured in Sayama, Japan. The Accord has been sold in the U.S. since the 1976 model year and this year marks 30 years of Accord manufacturing in America¹.

It's all about choice, but not when it comes to safety: Every Civic features the same full array of safety systems. Standard.

 

Active Systems: Control

To help keep you on course and away from danger, Vehicle Stability Assist™ (VSA^®)[1] helps sense oversteer or understeer, and then adjusts brake pressure at each wheel and/or reduces engine power to help restore driver control.

Standard 4-wheel anti-lock disc brakes (ABS), with Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD), help you maintain control during hard braking. Properly inflated tires are crucial for safe operation, so the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)[2] alerts the driver when a tire's pressure reaches a significantly low level.

Passive Systems: Protection

The Civic has been engineered to help protect you and your passengers when a frontal collision just cannot be avoided. The Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) body structure utilizes a network of connected structural elements to distribute frontal crash energy more evenly throughout the front of the vehicle.

Airbags

Standard front, front side and side curtain airbags help reduce the likelihood of injuries in a collision.

Top Safety

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has named the 2012 Civic Sedan a "2011 Top Safety Pick," based on more stringent standards implemented in 2010. The Civic Sedan received top ratings in each category including frontal offset, side impact, and rear impact crash safety tests and the new roof-strength test. The Civic Sedan has been named an IIHS Top Safety Pick since 2008.

Honda's Safety Philosophy

Honda is committed to providing safety for everyone—that means crash protection not only for our own drivers and passengers, but also for the occupants of other vehicles, and injury mitigation for pedestrians. We are dedicated to identifying and implementing advanced designs and features that help enhance the safety of vehicles on the road. Learn more.

[1] VSA is not a substitute for safe driving. It cannot correct the vehicle's course in every situation or compensate for reckless driving. Control of the vehicle always remains with the driver.

[2] For optimal tire wear and performance, tire pressure should be checked regularly with a gauge. Do not rely solely on the monitor system. Please see your Honda dealer for details.

Efficiency is the task. The Civic, your tool.

 

Just Put It in ECON

The Civic now gives you a quick and easy way to drive in the most frugal manner possible. Just push the ECON button[1]. The Civic engine and other power-using systems will then go into super-efficient mode to maximize your fuel efficiency.

 

Onboard Eco Coach

For an interactive approach to squeezing every mile out of a gallon, keep an eye on the blue and green bars on either side of the speedometer. That's the Honda Eco Assist^™[1] feature, the same system found in our hybrid models. Keep it in the green, and you'll go farther. Don't need the help? You can always turn it off.

The Bottom Line: Higher MPG[2]

All of the gas-saving technology in the new Civic may help you get an estimated 39 mpg on the highway[2]. And in the new Civic HF, an estimated 41 mpg[3]. That's money in the tank.

Greener Thinking

Civics with an automatic transmission are available with PZEV (Partial-Zero Emission Vehicle) rating in states that have adopted California Zero-Emission Vehicle regulations[4].

[1] Eco Assist™ and the ECON logo are trademarks of Honda Motor Co., Ltd., and may not be used or reproduced without prior written approval.

[2] 28 city/39 hwy/32 combined mpg for automatic transmission models. Based on 2012 EPA mileage estimates. Use for comparison purposes only. Do not compare to models before 2008. Your actual mileage will vary depending on how you drive and maintain your vehicle.

[3] Preliminary mileage estimates determined by Honda. Final EPA mileage estimates not available at the time of printing. Use for comparison purposes only. Do not compare to models before 2008. Your actual mileage will vary depending on how you drive and maintain your vehicle.

[4] PZEV (Partial Zero-Emission Vehicle) models as certified by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) are available in California and states that have adopted California Zero-Emission Vehicle regulations.

 

i-MID: It's Personal.

You may know what kind of Civic matches your own style. Now comes the next step: getting personal with it. The 2012 Civic makes it a snap with i-MID, or intelligent Multi-Information Display, that sits front and center in the Civic's instrument panel (LX and above).

Photos

Nothing says "me" like the wallpaper on your computer. Now you can do the same in your Civic. Load an image of your pet, your mom, or even one of yourself. We won't judge.

Info

The new i-MID is your go-to for every important tidbit of drive-related information. See current song playing, current mpg-and even turn-by-turn directions if you opt for the available Navigation system[1].

Bluetooth^® Capability

The list of advanced i-MID functions is a long one, including Bluetooth^® HandsFreeLink^®[2] for hands-free phone calls. The system pairs easily with your compatible phone, and is also ready for Bluetooth^® Audio, so you can stream your music too.

Crystal Clear

Not only is the i-MID helpful and customizable, it's pretty, thanks to its high-resolution color TFT LCD display—the same kind of technology found on LCD monitors and the latest smartphones.

[1] The Honda Satellite-Linked Navigation System™ is available on EX and EX-L models in the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico. (FM Traffic service only available in the United States, except Alaska). Please see your Honda dealer for details.
